How to Kill Time in Manhattan! COVER by @pearlsrot. ╱ ORIGINAL.

As if New York City wasn't already so expensive, after the pandemic, the prices of everything skyrocketed, including housing rents. For the past nine years, Aiza had been living with her family of six in a two-bedroom apartment. With a meager income her father earns as a taxi worker, and mother, Adeela, who takes catering orders from home, chances of ever moving into a spacious home are near-impossible. When Samir becomes the second person to supplement the family income, they finally decide to move out. It is unbelievable when a well-acquainted real-estate agent shows the listing of a five bedroom house in Hicksville with a highly low and affordable rent. The family gleefully moves in seeing their dream become a reality. But their bliss is short-lived when strange things start happening around the new house. It seems like something already inhabits the place and they don't welcome the new family.

When Emily and her husband move into a mansion on Inwood Hill, she expects a quiet new beginning. The house was once a "reformation home" for troubled women. But the women weren't reformed. They were silenced. As she digs deeper, she begins to see them-glimpses of former performers in feathered headdresses and Vaudeville makeup, dancing between the walls, whispering warnings through the wallpaper. The past isn't haunting her. It's recruiting her. When the glamour and violence of the mansion's hidden history bleed into the present, she must uncover what happened to the women locked here before her... before the house decides she belongs to it too. A dark, atmospheric psychological horror blending feminist revenge, burlesque allure, and the ghosts of Vaudeville. Everything in this house was designed to correct her. But she wasn't built to be corrected.

He never stopped wanting her. He sued her father's firm and trapped her into working with him. She thinks it's revenge. A way to torment her for whatever they left unfinished in the past.

And if he marries this year, it has to be her. She thinks they're at war now. That he hates. But while she's trying everything to get him back What she doesn't know is that he was never trying to destroy her in the first place. And the real problem between them was never hatred. It's that he never stopped wanting her.

They all said their friendship group was too big, too loud, too complicated - but somehow, it worked. Elowen "Elle" Marquez has always been part of the center of it all. Between brand deals, trending videos, late-night calls, and inside jokes that never made sense to anyone else, her life has always been full. Especially when Cesar Mendoza is around. Cesar is the kind of person who never has to try too hard - and somehow still ends up at the middle of everything. The jokes, the chaos, the attention... and maybe, without meaning to, Elle too. With their friends - Preslee, Ayden, Paul, Brennan, Marcus, Jafia, and the Harvey twins - nothing ever stays simple for long. One moment it's group trips, content days, and shared laughs under golden sunsets... and the next, everything feels like it's changing faster than they can keep up with. Because growing up doesn't wait. And neither does the way some people start to matter more than they were supposed to.

A girl finds her whole different life in the new city. Her everything changes...there. For good or not let's see.

Everyone came to New York for a reason. Some for love. Some for money. Some to escape their past. But after a corrupt salesman tricks two groups into buying the same luxurious house, six strangers are forced under one roof - where secrets, danger, betrayal, and romance begin to collide.

Marco DeLuca's world is small by choice. He runs a gym in Astoria, takes care of everyone around him, and keeps his own life carefully contained between work, family, and routine. It's easier that way. Safer. No expectations. No heartbreak. No room for wanting more. Then his aunt arranges a blind date. Adrian Voss is everything Marco isn't prepared for-elegant, distant, impossibly composed, and very definitely a vampire. A centuries-old supernatural attorney with a reputation for icy control, Adrian has spent decades keeping the world at arm's length. People are complicated. Attachment is dangerous. Love is temporary. Neither man expects one awkward dinner to change anything. But somewhere between crowded Queens streets, late-night conversations, community center chaos, and the quiet gravity of being truly seen, something begins to grow between them-slow, tender, and impossible to ignore. As greedy developers threaten Marco's neighborhood and old wounds begin surfacing beneath the careful lives they've built, Marco and Adrian must decide whether love is worth the risk of letting someone close enough to change them forever. In a New York City where vampires, fae, werewolves, and humans coexist beneath the glow of subway lights and corner bodegas, I See You is a queer urban fantasy romance about found family, emotional intimacy, and the terrifying vulnerability of being loved completely.

In the heart of Manhattan, Princess isn't just any service dog-she's a trained military veteran with sharp instincts, sharper opinions, and absolutely no patience for chaos. Between protecting her handler Makayla, silently managing the unpredictable ecosystem of apartment-dwelling pets, and keeping the building from descending into complete disaster, she has enough on her plate already. Then there's Miles. A massive Cane Corso from next door who treats "personal space" like a myth and her like a destiny he's decided on without consulting her. He's infuriating, overly confident, and somehow always there-whether she wants him or not. But when the city outside becomes just as unpredictable as the one inside their building, Princess is forced to rely on the one thing she trusts least: someone else. And as instincts collide with feelings she refuses to name, she starts to realize that maybe protection isn't just about keeping danger out... Sometimes it's about letting someone in.

Brooklyn Brooks is a rookie cop from a small town in Tennessee who moves to New York City to start her dream job with the NYPD. She expects tough cases, long nights, and a fast-paced life-but she doesn't expect her new partner, Jace Donovan. Jace is a skilled detective with a reputation for being cold, strict, and impossible to work with. From the moment they meet, the two clash constantly and struggle to trust each other. But when a series of dangerous and deeply personal cases begin unfolding across the city, Brooklyn and Jace are forced to work together. What starts as conflict slowly turns into trust... and something more complicated neither of them planned for. As the investigation deepens, Brooklyn realizes the case isn't random-it's connected to her past in ways she never imagined. Secrets from Tennessee begin resurfacing, and someone is watching their every move. In a city full of sirens, lies, and hidden truths, Brooklyn and Jace must decide what's more dangerous: the case they're solving... or the feelings growing between them. "She came to New York to solve cases. She didn't realize she was one."
