Born into the lap of luxury and a time of turmoil, Duchesse Eleonore Vigneron experiences her coming of age in the Court of Louis XVI . Embroiled in the chaos that surrounds Versailles, Eleni uses her unique blend of wit, charm, and beauty to ensure her survival. Proud and elegant even in the face of death, she escapes the guillotine only to become a powerful immortal with abilities she herself does not yet understand. The former glory of Versailles becomes both her greatest tragedy and the birth of a triumphant future.

Nearly 250 years later, Eleni is a wealthy and alluring immortal who finds solace in her own power, but can never forget the past  In mourning for her 15th mate, she seeks refuge from scandal in a small town on the Louisiana bayou. With a constant population of 8,999 souls and rumoured to be a haunted town able to disappear at will,  Aubrey Parish is a place of rebirth and second chances. 

Eleni learns to rebuild her life in a world where everyone and everything carries its own secrets, existing together under the veil of two powerful delusions: magic is a parlour trick, and everyone is human.

In a world of dark fantasy and elegantly woven webs of deception, the truth may be the most powerful enemy. When will it be unearthed, and what price will Eleni pay?

******************
This is a completed first draft. Edits and changes will be made on a consistent basis.

"Immortally Beloved" is the first book in an epic saga chronicling the life, death, and rebirth of an utterly seductive immortal and a mysterious small town. Both will capture your heart.  Eleni's story holds a world of Gothic elegance and forbidden secrets that will often bring tears to your eyes.

Endless appreciation to @TheTigerWriter,  who did this hauntingly lovely cover--the 24th and final one. ;) 

All that stuff where you brag about your book is in the book. ;)

Love Me Forever door loveispriceless
10 Delen Compleet Voor volwassenen
**Book 2 of the "Love Me" series. Can be read as a stand-alone book.** Do you believe in love? I certainly did not. To be honest, I never cared much for it. To me, love was nothing but the brain releasing the chemical phenylethylamine to produce the effect of what people call "falling in love." That's what love meant to me. Never in a million years did I ever expect my plans to shatter instantly into a million pieces when Erin introduced me to her best friend, Julie, the most beautiful and luscious red-haired woman I'd ever seen. In an instant, I knew my life would never be the same. I knew then, that it didn't matter who she was or what her past beheld, she will become my future. ____________________________________ From the moment Grace locked eyes on Julie she was in love. She had fallen hard and fast. Grace thought she found the perfect person for her and there was never a doubt in her mind that she couldn't have Julie, for no one can resist her charm, whether it be a man or woman. However, not everything in life comes easily as Grace might hope. Not when the woman you love, is in love with your older sister. Though her feelings were not returned, she continued to stay by Julie's side, hoping that one day Julie would look her way. But seven years later and Grace remains nothing more than a friend. What happens when Grace begins to reach her breaking point and decides to move on with her life? Without realizing that the one person she wanted the most has finally begun to fall in love with her. ****This story contains MATURE content and GIRL ON GIRL action.**** Important: Thanks to all my readers and supporters - Love Me Forever has been officially published as an eBook on Amazon! Starting 7/13/20, only chapters 1-10 will be available to readers on Wattpad.

Blamed for a lethal disease she did not cause, a reclusive necromancer sets out to cure the sickness and save a town before any more victims perish. *** Draped in a cloak of blood and deemed a wicked monster, Evylyn is an immortal necromancer, feared enough to silence any mention of her name. As the accused source of a deadly disease, paired with her infamy in necromancy, she avoids the town of Ensceas at all costs. But Evylyn's fate is decided by a coin toss, and she's forced to break free from her chains of destiny, nearly paying with her life. She's rewarded by a bounty hunter tracking her down, hungry to give her the sanguinary death she deserves. In her eleventh hour, a fellow demigoddess gives her two things: a second chance, and a way to weasel her way into the hearts of those that despise her. Simply, she must remedy the incurable disease that she allegedly caused, preferably before the entire town of Ensceas falls victim to its sickness. Thankfully, Evylyn's infamy didn't come from thin air, and if there's anyone that can rival death, it's her. ----- ❈ ----- INCLUDES: ❈ Sapphic demigoddesses ❈ Badass sunshine x soft-hearted grump ❈ Magical, mysterious malady ❈ Cute baby animals FEATURED ON: ❈ @highfantasy Featured High Fantasy Stories, @OpenNovellaContest's Longlist ❈ @Fantasy, @Romance, @highfantasy, @darkfantasy, @mythandlegend, @StoriesUndiscovered 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘿𝙖𝙩𝙚: 02/01/2023 𝙀𝙣𝙙 𝘿𝙖𝙩𝙚: 4/17/2023 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙙 𝘾𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩: 28k 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙧𝙚𝙨: High Fantasy, Romance, Adventure 𝘾𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧: @Xaprith © 2023 [First Edition]

When Cate Choi finds herself on the wrong side of immortal vampires, she finds herself under the protection of a handsome Empath who just happens to be one of the most powerful Immortals in the world. ***** Cate Choi thought her biggest challenge in Oxford, England would be deciphering ancient manuscripts and surviving on bad coffee-not dodging vampires. But her thesis research has accidentally unearthed a secret so dangerous that an ancient vampire will do anything to keep it hidden. Enter Morgan MacNee, an immortal Empath cursed with the power to channel every supernatural ability around him. He's a broody researcher who keeps to himself, battling the chaos of his gift in carefully constructed isolation. But when Cate crashes into his world with her razor-sharp wit and fearless curiosity, he's drawn to her like a moth to flame. When vampires set their sights on Cate, Morgan intervenes-not just out of duty, but because something about her pulls him out of his self-imposed exile. Protecting her, however, means making a choice: stand by the human who's turned his world upside-down or preserve the fragile balance in a supernatural realm that wants her gone. --------- NOTE: This book takes place in the Siren's Mark universe following the events of Siren's Fall.

WARNING R-RATED Disaster-in-Waiting was a dream come true for me. Firstly writing it and then sharing it on here and receiving such a wonderful response to it. It was because of the support and encouragement on here that I finally took the decision to self-publish as an e-book. It is available on Amazon and can be read for free on there with Kindle Unlimited. ****Mature audience only due to adult themes; sex, language and situations**** Eloise Ross is married to Michael, her much older and recently retired husband. He fills his days with golf and walking the dog, while she fills her days working as a newly appointed P.A. to the CEO of an international company. One night, disillusioned with her sexless marriage she goes out alone, drinks beer and dances with a handsome stranger. The moves on the dance floor quickly lead to passion and excitement like El has never known, but it was only one night, one time. Just that once couldn't mean anything, could it? Just that once changed her view on everything she'd ever thought she'd known or valued; her home, family, husband and marriage, but most of all herself. As her life begins to unravel, with twists and turns that make her laugh, cry and despair El has only one constant to hang onto, her handsome stranger. "Because I don't want to end it. I'm not exactly what you'd call experienced," I said with a warm flush creeping up my cheeks. "I thought everything I had, with Michael was an ideal life until that night, when I met you and something switched inside me, a realisation that it was as far from ideal as anything ever could be. I don't think I'm being clear here, sorry. I am not trying to pin my happiness or the consequences of this on you, God, I don't even call you by your first name so to expect anything of you is not realistic!"

Reverse Handmaiden's tale set in a fantasy medieval land. *** Fynn of Teleni is an orphan born and raised within the Great Kingdom of Teleni. The particularity of his home is its rare breed of virgin male soldiers. Currently stationed in the same barrack for nearly five years, Fynn is determined to climb in grade and become commander. Seileia is from the Eleenora's wood, an uncharted forest and the last unconquered territory by the Kingdom of Teleni. Descendant from a race of powerful witches and dragon riders, Seileia fears being the next one like her many sisters who have gone missing, taken by the Kingdom of Teleni. With no proof to attest to her suspicions, Seileia storms into Fynn's barrack on her dragon to rescue them all. The plan should have worked as she comes disguised as one of Teleni's soldiers; however, Fynn catches her, and the two of them fight with Fynn exposing her naked body to everyone and calling her "a demon." To fall in love with a demon is the last of their wishes, and yet, outnumbered, the Kingdom of Teleni captured Seileia and leaves her under Fynn's sole guardianship. This is a clumsy fantasy fairytale with an ending that you will never expect. *** ONC 25' Prompt 2: To be in love with a demon was the last thing on your wishlist. Prompt 61: The silence in the room is deafening, as though it has a life of its own. It's time to rewrite the fairy tale, but this time, the ending will be yours, and it won't be happy. *** CW: Depictions and mentions of violence with a bit of foul language but mostly a war of the minds over the ones of the bodies. Sensible chapters will be marked with *** at the end of their titles.

*REWRITE CAN BE FOUND ON MY ACCOUNT, THIS VERSION IS DISCONTINUED Adonis had been alive for an excruciatingly long time. His heart shattered over and over as he watched those he loved constantly die, betray him, or simply disappear altogether. After countless centuries of struggle, he had everything in the palm of his hand and had no use for the dark, shrivelled mess that remained of his heart. Until she was born - perfection incarnate. He thought she was a myth, but there she was, the one thing he could love without fear, the one thing that could never leave him. The fated Blood Witch, with an immortal soul just as his. He would give her the world, in exchange for remaining by his side for eternity. No one would take her from him. But poor Adonis never imagined his precious treasure would escape him of her own will...
