    BEAUTIFUL WICKED THINGS Book One: The Weight of Water Welcome to Bramblewood Hall, where the ivy hides the cracks in the stone, and the silence hides the screams. Five girls rule the halls of England's most exclusive boarding school, bound together by privilege, prestige, and a single, devastating secret. Sloane, the queen bee with a legacy of darkness. Kaia, the athlete running from her own reflection. Bea, the perfectionist holding it together with pearls and panic. Maeve, the artist painting over the truth. Elara, the outsider who sees too much. They are beautiful. They are wealthy. And they are liars. One year ago, a summer night at the boathouse ended in a tragedy they swore to take to their graves. They thought the mud had washed away the evidence. They thought the water had swallowed their sin. But someone was watching. Now, a mysterious figure known only as H has emerged from the shadows. H knows what they did. H knows the twisted history of their families. And with a terrifying arsenal of digital surveillance and psychological warfare, H is determined to make them pay. From the flickering lights of the Founders' Dinner to the rotting corridors of the abandoned asylum next door, the girls are forced into a deadly game of cat and mouse. But at Bramblewood, the danger isn't just outside the gates-it's in their blood. The truth won't set them free. It will drown them. If Pretty Little Liars and The Secret History had a baby, and that baby was raised by Riverdale, it would be Beautiful Wicked Things.

    Renee Ludgens earned her scholarship to Castleton Academy through brilliance and grit, but she never imagined the ultra-wealthy students hiding the school's real secret: their families are werewolves, and lycanthropy is hereditary privilege. When Xander Volkin, heir to the most powerful pack, bites her in a desperate bid to escape his engagement to a sadistic woman of his kind, Renee is thrust into supernatural politics she doesn't understand and bonded to a boy she despises. The bite creates a connection, Ingal. She feels his emotions, he feels hers, and if she dies during transformation, he dies too. Now she must survive her first shift while navigating wolf society's byzantine rules, where her working-class status makes her "disposable," and her new "fiancé" is both her only ally and the person who destroyed her life. But as Renee uncovers the extent of this new cruel world of her, she realizes survival isn't enough, she needs to burn everything down.

    Description: Once a righteous knight sworn to protect the royal bloodline, Reinhardt's life was shattered by betrayal. Abandoned, left for dead after defending the kingdom's true heir, he survives by some cruel miracle, only to awaken on a storm-ravaged shore in the haunted Darklands. There, amidst jagged black rocks and crashing waves, he discovers a buried armor of obsidian steel, emblazoned with the crest of the kingdom's original bloodline-his own. But this armor is no mere relic: it whispers promises of vengeance, its dark will entwined with his own fury. Now, fueled by wrath, betrayal, and the echoes of a lineage stolen, Reinhardt rises as a harbinger of retribution. The kingdom that once cast him aside will learn that shadows hold power... and that some blood debts cannot be forgotten.

    What if the love of your life could be yours forever? Not by chance, but by command. María Valdés is a santera, a healer, a keeper of ancient traditions in the humid heart of Tampa. When the man who shattered her heart walks back into her world, she makes a desperate choice. Using her grandmother's forbidden shadow book, she casts a spell to bind him to her. It works. He returns, consumed by a devotion more intense than any natural love. But every spell has a cost, and this one invites a hungry, ancient spirit into their lives. What begins as a rekindled romance twists into a beautiful nightmare. The entity demands more than offerings-it demands blood, then a name, then a life. This is not a love story. It is a warning. A dark tale of obsession, the dangerous magic of a broken heart, and the terrifying price of tampering with free will. For fans of lush gothic romance and supernatural horror that asks: how far would you go for love, and what would you become to keep it?

    When Maryanne Carter's young daughter vanishes from their rural Southern trailer park, the town is quick to blame her. After all, Maryanne has always been the girl people whisper about. But the deeper Maryanne digs, the more she uncovers about her town's forgotten history: a congregation obsessed with purity, a riverbed full of unspoken names, and a ledger of children stolen in the name of salvation. As the past bleeds into the present, Maryanne is pulled into a world where the dead refuse to stay buried. To save her daughter, she must confront the ghosts of a faith twisted beyond recognition, and the secrets that have haunted the small town of Braswell for generations.

    She was never born-she was written. In a village forgotten by maps and mercy, where the wind carried whispers and the ink never dried, a child was born beneath a bloodless moon. They called her the Inkish Child-not out of love, but out of fear. Her skin bore the stains of stories untold, and her eyes reflected things no one dared remember. She did not cry when she entered the world; instead, the village's ink wells overflowed, and every written word twisted into something darker. This is not a tale of innocence. It is a tale of what happens when grief is buried too deep, when stories are silenced, and when a child becomes the vessel for everything the world refuses to speak aloud. The Inkish Child is not a monster. But she is not what they prayed for either. -When the Inkish dies, bone by bone, the child shall rise to claim the throne. -She will walk through ruins, silent and rich, and none shall dare to burn the witch.

    Some doors are locked for a reason. Centuries ago, Lucien was entrusted with the stewardship of a library unlike any other: a vast, hidden archive where the oldest truths of the world were kept safe from those who would twist them. Over the centuries, he has watched seekers come and go, most leaving empty-handed... if they left at all. Now, Isla's search for her missing sister leads her to the library's threshold. Drawn into its labyrinth of secrets, she finds herself under Lucien's watchful eye- unsure whether he means to help her, hinder her, or keep her there forever. As they follow a trail of ancient records and dangerous revelations, Isla begins to suspect her sister's disappearance is tied to something far larger and far older than she ever imagined. And in the library's depths, where history blurs with the present, the cost of finding the truth may be more than either of them can bear.
