For as long as she can remember, Rowan Ellis has lived in the shadow of her older sister-the Arsenal academy captain everyone believed would change the game. When her sister died unexpectedly, she left behind more than heartbreak. She left behind impossible expectations, painful memories... and Leah Williamson. Years later, Rowan finally earns her place in Arsenal's first team, determined to prove she's more than just the other Ellis. But every training session, every match, and every familiar face reminds her of the legacy she never asked to inherit. Especially Leah. Once her sister's closest friend, Leah has spent years carrying the weight of a promise she couldn't keep. Watching Rowan step into the same dressing room, wear the same badge, and chase the same dream is almost more than she can bear. So she does the only thing she knows how to do. She keeps Rowan at arm's length. But as grief slowly gives way to friendship, and friendship begins to feel like something neither of them expected, Leah must face the one thing she's been running from all along. Because loving Rowan doesn't mean letting go of the past. It means finding the courage to live beyond it.

At Least One Summer is a poignant coming-of-age tale set in the waning days of adolescence. Told through the reflective lens of a teenager navigating the slow, uncertain rhythms of summer in a small town, the story explores themes of memory, first love, family tension, and the quiet ache of growing up. As the narrator drifts between bike rides, diner booths, and dusty roads with his enigmatic friend Mia, he finds himself caught in the space between childhood and adulthood-where emotions run deep but words often fall short. Rich with atmosphere and emotional undercurrents, this is a story about holding on, letting go, and the singular power of one summer to leave a lasting mark.

By day, they are aristocratic rivals vying for the same crown, exchanging barbs as sharp as their fangs. By night, the masquerade falls away into a frantic, secret devotion. They aren't just sleeping with the enemy-they're bleeding for them. But in a world where their ancient families have traded blood for centuries, their love is the only sin that's truly unforgivable. While they both argue in front of their parents, they have a secret that their parents don't want to know and that they both stalk each other. (Trigger warnings Blood & Gore: Given they are vampires, expect graphic descriptions of feeding, blood sharing (often used as an intimate metaphor), and supernatural violence. ​Violence/Physical Altercations: Since they "pretend" to hate each other, there may be scenes of performative fighting or genuine duels that go too far. ​Death & Murder: Themes of immortality often involve the loss of human life or the killing of rival clan members.) WLW Dark romance Stalking between vampire rivals adds a delicious, predatory edge to the story. Since they are supernatural, it isn't just about following someone; it's a high-stakes game of cat-and-cat where the "hunter" and "prey" labels flip constantly. They both love it when they hide from each other, but they "taste" it from each other.

​"To everyone else, she is a masterpiece of faith. To herself, she is a masterpiece of lies." ​In the eyes of the congregation, Seraphina Evangeline Solis is the perfect reflection of her father's ministry. She is the "Daughter of God," a woman of grace, purity, and a voice that sounds like a chorus of angels. But behind the altar and the stained glass, the perfection is a suffocating mask. Seraphina is tired-exhausted from playing a role that isn't hers, tired of being a trophy for a community that doesn't truly see her. She is a prisoner in a golden cage, where every hymn she sings feels like a silent scream for help. ​Her world is a repetitive cycle of duty and sacrifice, until she meets Vespera Eris Arezzo. ​From the moment Vespera enters her life, the heavy chains of expectations begin to feel lighter. Vespera is the only one who looks past the "Pastor's Daughter" and sees the woman underneath. Her presence is a quiet storm, a dangerous sanctuary that offers Sera the one thing the church never could: the freedom to breathe. ​But choosing Vespera means choosing a path the world calls a transgression. It is a love that defies the laws she was raised to uphold, a bond that the church labels a stain. As the yearning between them grows into an undeniable fire, Sera is forced to confront the truth of her heart. ​"If loving you is a sin, then I am willing to be a sinner." ​How much of herself is Sera willing to lose to finally feel alive? And who is this mysterious woman who makes her want to trade her halo for a life of beautiful heresy?
