Manhattan cerita

Lyra Ashford knows one thing about love: If it doesn't hurt, it isn't real. As a Creative Director in Manhattan, she can command multi-million-dollar brands with a single presentation- but she has never been able to command her own heart. Callum Reed is different. A therapist with too much patience. A man who doesn't get jealous. A man who never answers anger with anger. A man who stays. And that is exactly why Lyra wants to run. Because what if gentle love isn't a gift- but a test she was never taught how to pass? When a past filled with fire comes roaring back into her life, Lyra is forced to choose: Return to the kind of love that makes her feel gloriously, destructively alive- or hold on to the man who might be too gentle for a brutal world. But there is one thing she doesn't realize. Gentle love does not mean it cannot leave. And when Callum finally stops chasing her- Lyra may already be too late to learn how to love without destroying everything in her path.

A blood-stained necklace, a lethal protector with a dark past, and a secret that could collapse the world. Lena and Adam must run from the shadows of Manhattan to the peaks of the Alps to survive the Morano Legacy

In the restless heart of New York City, Mike Stevens begins again. At forty-five, charming, intelligent, and newly trained as a private investigator, Mike steps into a world where truth hides behind elegance, and nothing is what it seems. His first major case arrives through a powerful and dangerous client: Alexander Sterling, a wealthy patron of the prestigious Munnix Opera House. Sterling's wife, Genevieve Sterling, has vanished without a trace. Officially, she is recovering from cosmetic surgery in Switzerland. Unofficially, she disappeared after a violent argument with the opera's young and arrogant artistic director. Sterling refuses to involve the police. He wants silence. Discretion. Control. As Mike and his cynical mentor, Daniel Callahan, descend into the glittering world of opera, wealth, and influence, they uncover rivalries, ambition, secrets, and lies buried beneath velvet curtains and champagne smiles. But the investigation is only part of Mike's journey. Alone in his modest apartment, far from the comfort of those who care about him-including his protective sister Clara Stevens and the enigmatic Irene McKlein-Mike must learn the true cost of his new profession. Privacy becomes isolation. Trust becomes risk. And every answer leads to deeper uncertainty. In a city where power protects the guilty and beauty conceals corruption, Mike must decide who to believe, who to betray, and how far he is willing to go to uncover the truth. Because in New York, disappearance is never an accident. It is always a story waiting to be uncovered.

The Birth of the Current: The Flight of the Crow follows Admiral Asher Hartwell as he moves between ordinary life in Manhattan and command of distant worlds, carrying the quiet weight of love, loss, and sovereignty reclaimed. Through a living telepathic bond with Victoria, the story weaves intimacy, memory, ritual, and cosmic duty into a single current flowing across time, space, and consciousness.

Angels, dragons, blood moons, and grounded human moments coexist, not as fantasy, but as lived reality layered beneath the everyday. This is a story of embodiment, devotion, and the flight that begins when energy is no longer carried in silence, but finally set free.

"I'll strangle you." I said showing him my hands and making a motion of squeezing an invisible neck. He laughed. "But if you straddle me, I'll just hold on more tightly."

Taking this as an opportunity, I pushed hard against his chest with my hands and rolled off to my left. I was on my knees one second and on my feet in another second. I stood glaring at the imbecile moron as he continued to laugh. ************************************************************************************** Carmen never asked for a matchmaker......neither did she ask for the three Stalkers who are hell bent on getting her whether she likes it or not.
