Elara Vance only wanted five minutes of silence. Instead, she walked into a dark library and found Cole and Cade King waiting inside. Identical twins. Billionaires. Untouchable. And completely, dangerously interested in her. She should have walked away and never seen them again. But the Kings don't forget what catches their attention. Especially when it tries to run. Elara believes she caught the attention of the King twins by accident. She couldn't be more wrong. Elara's ordinary life starts disappearing piece by piece-until the man she trusted most is given an offer he can't refuse. A price. For her. He accepts. Now Elara belongs to two men who own enough of the city to make escape feel impossible. Cade is violence barely disguised as affection. Cole is calm enough to make cruelty sound reasonable. One wants her fear. The other wants inside her head. And both of them want the same thing. Her. Elara keeps waiting for the brothers to turn against each other. Waiting for jealousy. Waiting for one of them to finally say: "She's mine." But she has misunderstood the King twins from the very beginning. They don't fight over what they want. They share it.

One moment, I'm tracing my bleeding hand over vivid, newly unearthed frescoes of three striking men in a Late Republican villa, their features eerily reminiscent of the fresco I've studied since I was ten: Roman Senator Marcus Valerius, whose family vanished from history in 50 BC. The next, I'm sprawled across a marble floor in ancient Rome, pinned beneath the hard, commanding body of Marcus himself-flesh and blood, pulsing with raw power. And good grief, nothing captured the fire in his piercing stare or the way his touch ignites my traitorous body. But the history books lied. Marcus isn't the last Valerius. He has three brothers, each more dangerously captivating than the last-men I now know match those cryptic frescoes. Lucius, the battle-scarred warrior, whose heated grappling in the training yard leaves me breathless. Flavius, the silver-tongued diplomat, whose calculated caresses in shadowed corridors unravel my resolve. And Rufus, the freedman with knowing eyes, whose gentle touch conceals a hunger that sets my heart racing. Trapped in ancient Rome with no way home, I'm ensnared in a web of desire and deceit. The Valerii brothers want me-each in their own intoxicating way-and resistance feels like a losing battle. Worse, there is a fifth fresco, and it hides a chilling secret that threatens to upend everything I know. Am I a stranger in Rome, or the key to the Valerii family's mysterious erasure from history? With enemies closing in and time itself against me, I must choose: fight for a way back to my world or surrender to a fate that could rewrite the past.

Struggling to sell a single painting and drowning in student debt, Marisol Reyes, a fiercely independent but lonely artist in modern-day Chicago, is just about ready to give up on her dreams. When a mysterious storm crashes through her studio, she's pulled-brushes and all-into a world of primal beauty, where men can transform at will to different animals, cities are carved from stone and bone, and technology is nothing more than a fantasy. In this untamed realm centered around women and powered by instinct, Marisol finds herself at the center of the beastmen tribes. With no phone, no way home, and no clue how to survive in a matriarchal society where women must take multiple male consorts to stay protected, Marisol must quickly adapt-or risk becoming prey. Thrust into the spotlight, she must navigate between aggressive females, obsessive men, and unexpected desire. Armed with nothing but her creativity, courage, and the heart she wears on her sleeve, Marisol begins to uncover her place in this wild world. Maybe she doesn't need to return home after all... maybe she was meant to paint a new life here.

It is a slow burn, but worth it. ~ After a devastating alien invasion leaves Earth in ruins, humanity struggles to survive in isolated zones, clinging to life behind barriers of failing technology. Lena, a skilled engineer with fierce determination, dedicates her life to maintaining what little remains of this protective technology-especially the light posts that keep the Xyvarians at bay. But when a search for medicine pulls her outside the safe zone, she encounters a certain alien. Towering, muscular, and adorned with sharp, curving horns, this alien is a calculated hunter, though his interest in Lena is anything but logical. Drawn to her, he pursues her in a dangerous game of cat and mouse, one that blurs the line between predator and prey. As Lena fights to evade capture, the tension between them ignites into a charged, forbidden attraction that neither can fully understand. He is unlike any alien she's ever faced-Machiavellian, dangerous, unyielding, yet inexplicably captivated by her. Lena, wary and unwilling to surrender, finds herself both repelled and fascinated by the Xyvarian who watches her with a gaze that burns with something far more primal. As she grapples with confusing desires and the disturbing revelation of a breeding program, Lena is forced to question everything-her survival, her humanity, and her heart. ~ (The artwork featured in my cover photo was sourced from Pinterest. I do not own the original artwork; I have only added the title and a few design details.)

"Please Abhi ji... " she begged, her voice shaky, eyes searching his face for a flicker of mercy. She stepped back until the wall stopped her escape, her chest rising and falling rapidly. She could see it in his eyes-he was angry. But his voice? Too calm. Too controlled. And that scared her more than his rage ever could. He took another step forward, calm as ever, as if he wasn't burning inside. "Jaana, dar kyun rahi ho? Main kuch nahi karunga. Mat daro," he said smoothly, but the coldness in his gaze betrayed the lie behind his soft tone. (Darling, why are you scared? I won't do anything. Don't be afraid.) Her voice broke, laced with panic. "Aapne vada kiya tha... ki aap mujh par zabardasti nahi karenge," she reminded him, holding on to the last thread of hope. (You promised... that you wouldn't force yourself on me,) He smiled slightly, a calm too dangerous to trust."Aur Jaana, aapne bhi toh vada kiya tha ki aap apne boyfriend se kabhi nahi milengi. Aapne apna vada tod diya... ab meri baari " (And darling, you also promised that you would never meet your boyfriend. You broke your promise... now it's my turn.) His hands gripped her wrists and pressed them gently against the wall, not hurting her, but not letting her go either. Then, with a deliberate slowness, he leaned in and kissed her earlobe-sending a shiver down her spine. She squeezed her eyes shut, her heart pounding. She knew this wasn't about love. It was about control. Tropes: Grumpy × Sunshine He fell first, but she fell harder Possessive officer × innocent college girl Obsessed from the first glance Morally grey protector Touch her and you're dead Jealousy in uniform "Stay away from me" × "Make me" Danger disguised as devotion "I'm not good for you" × "I don't care" Trigger Warning: This story contains mature and sensitive themes including smut, manipulation, obsessive love, non-consensual scenes, and emotional/physical coercion .

#Book 2 In The Legacy Series. Her Commander is a high-stakes, enemies-to-lovers story that follows Officer Fatima Tariq Darwish, a fearless, rule-breaking cop, and Commander Ayzan Khalid Omari, a stoic, no-nonsense SWAT leader. __ She was never meant to survive him. He was never meant to feel anything at all. In the unforgiving world of Nigeria's elite SWAT force, rules are law-and Commander Muhammad Ayzan Omari is the law. Feared, respected, and emotionally unreachable, Ayzan leads with ruthless precision. No one dares challenge him-until Officer Fatima Darwish lands in his unit like a loaded gun with no safety. Hot-tempered. Scarred. Defiant. Fatima doesn't just break rules-she dares authority to break her. Transferred after punching her corrupt superior, she's trapped between the chaos of her home life and the cold war brewing between her and her commander. What starts as brutal training and psychological warfare spirals into something neither of them planned-a twisted, magnetic pull between two people who should never touch, trust, or want each other. He tests her limits. She pushes his buttons. And somewhere between discipline and destruction, control begins to crack. This isn't a romance. It's obsession in uniform. A love story born in gunfire, silence, and stolen glances. And in this world? Love doesn't save you. It exposes you. As missions turn deadlier and secrets unravel, Fatima must decide: will she run from the man who terrifies her-or trust the only person who's ever seen through her armor?
