A soul-searching romance about grief, growth, and a brain that won't slow down. Olivia is thirty, neurodivergent, and tired of pretending she's fine. Her relationship is falling apart, the tenth anniversary of her mother's death is looming, and a late ADHD diagnosis has turned her world upside down. In a bold attempt to reclaim her life, she escapes to a remote Tuscan Agriturismo where the silence, sunlight, and strangers offer unexpected comfort. Among the vineyard walks and shared meals, Olivia meets James, a quiet Englishman with his own reasons for running. Slowly, something between them begins to shift. This is not just a love story - it's a story about many kinds of love: romantic, familial, platonic, and the hard-won love of self. If you've ever felt too much, thought too fast, or loved too deeply - Olivia's journey will stay with you. Perfect for fans of messy healing, soft romance, and summer air that smells like change. Note: This novel explores ADHD through lived experience, not clinical definition.

To escape the dangers of wartime London, Millie has been sent away to Wickford Hall, but what lurks there is far more sinister than anything war might bring. --- THERE'S SOMETHING WICKED STALKING WICKFORD HALL... As war rages on, Mildred Cunningham is sent from the battered streets of London to the remote Wickford Hall, an old manor house turned school far in the country. She may be safe from the bombs of The Blitz, but Mildred--or Millie as she prefers--is miserable. She misses her old life, her friends, her family. She would rather risk German invasion than suffer the presence of the unfriendly nuns that run Wickford or the other strangely hostile students. But when new girl Petra arrives and befriends her, Millie thinks that Wickford might be survivable... As long as she has someone by her side. Only it soon becomes clear that Wickford is not the safe haven they expected. Girls begin to die, and Millie soon realizes that something sinister stalks the halls of Wickford. Isolated and afraid, Millie must discover the secrets of Wickford or be lost to its halls forever. --- Rankings: #1 in #Demonic

No, no, no. no! This can't be true what in the devil's name? Why am I seeing Jaro Briggs? After 20 fucking years. Did I lose my mind? "What are you doing here?" I asked scared, tense, humiliated and feeling every fucking feeling. "I might ask you the same." He said with a smirk. Damn him how in the world is he still managing to look that hot. He hasn't changed much except aged a bit yet looking lesser than his age. "This is my house for goddamn sake," I yelled. "I thought this was Mr Holder pipes house." "I am his wife. Which makes this house also mine!" "So you are a married woman with kids ? How riveting yet dumbfounding". He said. Is he complimenting me or commenting on me? "What did think I would be? A pole dancer?" I sighed. "More or less. Yet you have remained that beast always devouring anything that gets in its way." He accused. How dare he talk to me in this way, in my very own house. "It's been almost 20 years, Jaro don't act like you still know me!" I called out. "Is it so? Then why do I see you staring at my pants ?" He said with that damn smirk again. Why in the hell he showed out of nowhere and tormenting me? What he and I had is in past. Water under the bridge. "Don't tell me you still expect me to do all the things we did as teenagers." He said calmly. ************************ Michelle is an ordinary vet doctor, with a lovable husband, charismatic daughter and stupendous son. However, her routine life takes a turn with an abrupt encounter with her long-lost past boyfriend. Things get more hideous when they should share the neighbourhood. Even more complicated when her daughter Lana is strangely attracted to him. Does fate have its twisted way of unravelling her past with her family? However, her past isn't exactly water under the bridge. *Cover photo, not mine. Credit to the owners* *mature content*

GENRE: FANTASY, ADVENTURE, ACTION SHORT PLOT SUMMARY: The story begins with Simon, a boy living with his half-blind, deaf mother and his newborn brother, Lloyd. His mother uses a whistle to call him when she needs help. Simon dreams of becoming an adventurer-not for fame, but to earn a better life for his family and to find an elven master healer who might restore his mother's sight and hearing. Does such magic exist? Do royals look down on villagers? Some do, some don't. Power and status shape how people are treated, though the queen still protects the realm. Will Simon become a great adventurer? Nothing is guaranteed. He starts with no natural magic and little support but he has determination, kindness, and resolve. And that is where his journey truly begins. I hope you will like the story and for better experience listen some fantasy music while reading. That's all for the description, enjoy the story. 🍀❄️
