|| Featured FREE story with exclusive paid chapters - previously a paid story || When Haley discovers the truth behind Xavier, whose silence holds a deeper meaning, she sets her mind on making his life better one small step at a time. ***** Haley Rosamond is happy with her simple life, content under the wing of her father. Well-protected, she has no idea of the darkness surrounding Xavier Hunt, with his all-black attire and infrequent presence in school-accompanied by his bruises and scars. That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.

Everin Blackwell The first girl born into the Blackwell dynasty in over ten generations. The Blackwells are one of the oldest, richest, and most feared families in the world ruling the highest tiers of society alongside the Drache, Vanguard, Cambridge, Hastings, and Calloway families. Together, they are the unseen hand behind power, privilege, and secrets that span continents. For the past five years, Everin has lived in seclusion, tucked away at a prestigious boarding school in England. No contact with her family, just an annual visit from the father who raised her like a stranger. Her mother's death has blown out the candle of this once united family. What happens when shes the only witness. When she knows what really happened that day. When shes blamed for her silence on the matter and yet shes been growing a seed of revenge for years. But now, Everin is returning home. And she is no longer the same girl who left. She carries secrets-dangerous ones. And something else is changing inside her. Her five older brothers, distant and cold, claim to feel nothing for the sister they barely know. But when the truth begins to surface-that Everin is dying and only has a small chance of surviving-everything begins to unravel. Will they discover the truth before it's too late? Or will their silence, resentment, and guilt destroy her first? Everin, however, has her own mission. She's willing to risk everything to uncover the truth-even if it means attending a hidden academy designed to awaken the powerful gifts buried in her bloodline. But unlocking her power comes with a cost. As deadly secrets rise and new alliances form, can Everin survive the legacy she was born into? And will the other heirs see her as one of their own-or as the threat she's destined to become? ... Book cover credit (Pinterest) (Sahrosh Editx) ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Poems for a wandering soul

Closer to Me Madelyne ma siedemnaście lat i doskonale opanowała sztukę trzymania ludzi na dystans. Nowy dom, nowa rodzina i nowe miasto miały być tylko kolejną zmianą, przez którą po prostu trzeba przejść - bez emocji, bez przywiązań, bez oczekiwań. Ale nowa rzeczywistość nie zawsze daje się kontrolować. Wśród obcych korytarzy, codziennych rozmów i ludzi, którzy nieświadomie zaczynają być coraz bliżej, Madelyne musi zmierzyć się z pytaniem, którego od dawna unikała: czy bliskość naprawdę zawsze kończy się bólem? Czy da się zaufać innym, nie tracąc siebie? I czy można pozwolić komuś podejść bliżej, kiedy serce wciąż pamięta moment, w którym zostało złamane? Closer to Me to opowieść o dystansie i potrzebie bliskości, o powolnym oswajaniu emocji i relacjach, które nie zawsze pojawiają się wtedy, gdy jesteśmy na nie gotowi - ale dokładnie wtedy, gdy są nam najbardziej potrzebne.
