Jessica "Ike" Wordsworth can dive into books, but she isn't prepared for a monster - and a ruthless murderer killing her tourists. Ike is fighting the aftermath of a nasty divorce that left her husband in custody of her homesitting business - and her beloved cats. With nothing but a turquoise construction trailer to call her home, Ike invests her last quid and becomes partner in a tour company specialising in bespoke trips for book-lovers. When the guide hired to take on the first tour drops out at the last minute, Ike has to take over and steer her guests towards the cradle of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein". All to soon she realises there truly are monsters on the loose, one of them a ruthless killer who's targetting her tourists. To unearth the truth, Ike will have to cooperate with her moronic partner, Gary Sands, 13th Baron of Nettlehole and founder of LiteraTours. When they don't succeed in stopping the killer, she realises she'll have to take the plunge and draw on some rather unusual skills her family has been hiding from the world . . . "Frankenstein's Guide" is the first instalment in the "LiteraTours Cozy Mystery series". [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]] Cover designed by Ren T

But as old secrets come to light and the investigation intensifies, Evan realizes the SAD Killer's legacy isn't as distant as he believed-the danger may be closer than anyone imagines.

For a moment, she stayed still, like silence was her last shield. Then she exhaled, broken and tired. "I tried to hide it," she said softly, "but you wouldn't let me." ⋆ ── ⋆ ── ⋆ Truths are louder than secrets, merciless, burning, and impossible to unsee. He had once lived far from chaos, untouched by shadows he couldn't name. But the moment she walked in, everything shifted. She didn't just carry secrets, she became the storm that held them back. Now, the calm has broken. He tried to walk away but some obsessions don't die. His heart may have shattered the day she left, but his resolve stayed sharp. The questions she buried beneath silence never stopped haunting him. So he followed them, every fractured breadcrumb, every forgotten whisper. But what awaited him wasn't closure. It was destruction. Lethal, consuming, and nothing like he imagined. She had tried to shield him. Fought with silence, with distance, with every piece of strength she had left. But she couldn't stop him from stepping into her world. A world she had spent years trying to escape. And when the dust finally settled, when the damage was done and truth lay bare, she vanished once more. This time, she left no trace. Only the ache of unfinished stories and a man still waiting. Waiting for the girl who had become both his ruin and his reason. They will meet again, after time, after distance, after everything. But when they do, nothing will be the same. Because some love stories don't unfold. They circle back. And begin again. ••• This is NOT a standalone book.

A young woman's quiet life is shattered when she notices a strange mark on her mother's arm-a mystery that hints at secrets long buried. What begins as a small curiosity soon spirals into a chilling journey through hidden family rituals, whispered warnings, and truths that were never meant to see the light of day. As she digs deeper, the lines between reality and fear blur. Every revelation pulls her further into a world of shadowy forces and unseen eyes, where the people she thought she knew may not be who they appear to be. And as the past claws its way into the present, she realizes that some legacies are impossible to escape. In a race against the unknown, she must confront the mysteries that have haunted her family for generations-or risk being consumed by the darkness lurking just beneath the surface.

In a high-stakes world of corporate greed and organized crime, a makeup artist heiress living in hiding and a disillusioned k-pop idol trapped in his father's criminal dynasty are forced into an unlikely alliance. When a violent assassination attempt throws them together, they form a "found family" with a lethal secret agent and a fiercely loyal chef to take down the Scarlet Moon syndicate from the inside. Moving from the shadows of fabric wholesale vans to the high-tech war rooms of Incheon, the quartet executes a "Daylight Strike", sacrificing their anonymity and safety to expose the rot in a massive public detonation of evidence. Ultimately, the story is a journey of reclaiming agency, where a group of outcasts transforms from hunted victims into a unified front that topples an empire and finds peace in the "unexpected places" they created together. Heads Up (Casual Trigger Warnings): ​Just a heads up, this story gets a bit intense! It's got some stylized action and violence (think K-drama fight scenes), kidnapping themes, and some pretty heavy emotional manipulation from "villain" parents. ​A Quick Note from the Author: ​ This is my first time writing something in this genre!

If you notice any terms or cultural bits that feel slightly off or could be used better, please let me know in the comments. Please bear with me as a first-time writer and I hope you'll enjoy the story as much I enjoy writing it 😊 ☺️

The city is called Cradle. Its school is Nigella. The shared dream is to one day reach Maxura. But for the past three months, the borders have begun to open. Without announcements. Without explanations. Young people continue their routines as if nothing had changed. They repeat gestures, schedules, routes. Normality persists, even though something in the air no longer fits. Cinthia, one of them, is shaken by an event she cannot fully make sense of: the disappearance of her possible first love. From that rupture onward, she must move through silences, unexpected bonds, and signs that are difficult to read. What once seemed stable begins to blur. Not all boundaries are where they should be. Her journey is love and fog. It is rebellion.

The things I knew that were once unethical, were bound to be saintly. The dreams I dreamt once upon a time, seemed to be an epitome of nightmares. The heart I thought I stole long ago, always belonged to someone else. The crimes I have committed all my life, became a handful of lessons that I ought to learn. The world I looked up to once, became a mortal enemy of mine. The family I thought would disown me, fought my battles for me. The life I never imagined I'd live, sadly it became a life I'd rather live than die. Lastly, the guilt I carried in me for the each and every second of my living, was a poison spreading and gradually banishing everything around me. Clearly, I was bounded by the past! Never have I imagined for the galaxy of guilt in me to steadily transform into a matter of great; Love. No, it wasn't for my dead sister, or for the woman I once claimed to love, or for my money-grubbing father, or even for the woman who was destined for me. Majestically, it was for Someone who I never ever thought it would be for; My Maker. Well, it's mind-blowing how the ugliest of matters bring out the most beautiful of articles! -Guilt is a gift from Allah, warning you that what you are doing is violating your soul.- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Started: 22/12/2017, 7:15 pm.
