Fallvibes Stories

Quod pingitur, manet. Quod celatur, clamat. Every autumn, the Ten Houses send their brightest heirs to compete in a centuries-old ritual of art, magic, and memory. Mallory Saint-Clair has no noble blood, no inherited magic, and no place among them. Nonetheless, she is the only remaining heir to the lost noble bloodline of her great-great-great-grandmother, whom she barely knows, and the only one who can represent her House. Until a forbidden Greek painting begins to weep blood and she discovers a third figure hidden next Orpheus and Eurydice. A figure whose face has been erased. Forced to work alongside Stellan Alexio DelaCroix, the academy's coldest and most brilliant heir, Mallory must uncover the truth before the ritual claims another generation. Because the students who fail do not die. They become ghosts, trapped with the memories of those who came before them. And the deeper Mallory ventures into the painting, the more terrifying the truth becomes. The myth was never what they were told or what it seemed...

He writes about him. He reads about himself. The game begins. Elías is invisible. Arthur is everywhere. When Elías starts writing a story inspired by the boy he can't stop watching, it's just a secret-until Arthur finds it. Instead of exposing him, Arthur starts a game. Anonymous comments. Teasing glances. A push and pull that blurs the line between fiction and reality. But games have a way of becoming real. And the one who falls first isn't the one you'd expect. Welcome to their story.

The tragic night everything changed is still stuck in Jaycees head. She can't let it go. Especially not her. Alesha, her girlfriend- missing since the crash. Jaycee seems to be the only one believing that Alesha is still alive. The police, her parents, everyone thinks she drowned that night. Everyone except for Brian.

Haelyn Grant has always had everything. Money. A beautiful home. A future her family has already planned for her. But when twenty-year-old Haelyn moves to New York for college, she finally gets the one thing she's always wanted: a life that feels like her own. New city. New friends. New rules. Then there's Dallas Connelly. Dallas is a college football star with one goal-to make it to the pros. He's confident, competitive, impossible to ignore, and somehow always manages to get on Haelyn's last nerve. Their first meeting doesn't go well. Neither does the second. Or the third. But when they keep finding themselves in the same places, late-night conversations slowly replace arguments. Football games turn into excuses to see each other. Coffee runs become traditions. And somewhere between rainy walks through Manhattan, crowded subway rides, October sunsets, and nights spent laughing until they can't breathe, Haelyn starts seeing the boy behind the arrogance. Dallas starts seeing the girl behind the money. Neither of them planned on falling for each other. Especially when Haelyn's carefully controlled future and Dallas's dream of playing professionally begin pulling them in completely different directions. Because sometimes the person who drives you crazy is the person who changes everything. And sometimes, the best part of your life begins with the one person you never expected to meet. This is the October they met.

The Turning Page follows nineteen-year-old Maeve as she begins a new chapter of her life in the small town of Hawthorne. Fresh out of homeschooling and home from another summer at the Christian camp she has attended for years, Maeve isn't quite sure what comes next. She takes a job at The Turning Page, a cozy independent bookstore owned by Martha and John, where she works alongside her best friend, Katie. At first, the job seems like exactly what Maeve needs: quiet mornings, stacks of books, coffee, familiar faces, and the comforting rhythm of small-town life. But Hawthorne is full of people Maeve already knows-and people she doesn't. There's Dallas, someone Maeve has known for years and whose presence feels both familiar and increasingly complicated. There's Silas, Dallas's brother, whose teasing friendship with Maeve has always been impossible to define. And then there's Elio, a newer presence in Maeve's life who makes her wonder whether sometimes the people you least expect can become the ones who matter most. As September turns into October, and autumn gives way to Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the long quiet months of winter, Maeve finds herself caught between old friendships, new relationships, family expectations, and feelings she isn't quite ready to name. And making things harder are Evangeline, Dallas's ex-girlfriend, Genevieve, Silas's close girl best friend, and Hadley, the friend who connects them both. Between bookstore shifts, camp reunions, fall festivals, bonfires, football games, Christmas in Hawthorne, late-night conversations, family gatherings, friendships, misunderstandings, and growing feelings, Maeve slowly realizes that growing up doesn't mean having everything figured out. Sometimes, it simply means being willing to turn the page. Because The Turning Page isn't just the name of a bookstore. It's the beginning of Maeve's next chapter.

In The Quiet Fog of Autumn, the village of South Mountain finds itself wrapped in a thick blanket of fall fog-slow, stubborn, and oddly comforting.

A love letter to local quirks, quiet mornings, and the fog that makes everything a little softer.

Three swoony romances. One legendary missing skeleton. In the quirky town of Autumnvale, nothing kicks off fall quite like The Missing Skeleton Festival-a celebration of the mysterious disappearance (and reappearance) of the town founder's skeleton sixty years ago. This year, best friends Harper, Leah, and Camila are volunteering (mostly for the cute boys), when the impossible happens: the real skeleton disappears. Again. Each girl is determined to uncover a different piece of the mystery: ❤️ Harper, daughter of the local graveyard caretakers, thinks the whole legend is just a hoax-until she sees the ghost of a boy who died the same year the skeleton first vanished. ❤️ Leah, the sheriff's daughter, is tired of being seen as just a sidekick. She wants answers-and she's convinced the new guy in town, Skylar (brooding, suspicious, annoyingly cute), knows more than he's letting on. ❤️ Camila, the founder's great-granddaughter, needs to save the festival and her maybe-relationship with Atlas-Harper's older brother-who kissed her last week then ghosted her. Gilmore Girls meets Hocus Pocus in this cozy fall mystery with friendship, first love and one skeleton that just won't rest in peace.

And in Beck's version of the story, she fell head over heels for him. And the worst part? Readers are eating it up.

Love is the warmth of a fire burning so hot, till sometimes it twists into decay and morphs into hurt on paper. Love is what everyone wants. Needs. Love isn't something that simply appears, though when it can, is that love still considered real? Is it real if all you have to base it on is the world? In the quant, cobblestoned streets, and misted corners of Eurydice, its people are assigned a song. The song title given to them at birth. From there on it is easy to figure out your song with the help of the internet. But with so many different people flying by; if I say so myself, how will one ever find their true love?
