Using powers can age you, kill you...or drive you mad.

Ian Sharp knows none of this when his destructive powers wreck his house near Denver and nearly kill his sister...because no one knows powers exist.
 
He's forced on the run the day before graduation as the ruthless Hunters of a vicious shadow government track him down. Soon, he finds himself in a hidden, underground city built by giants before the great flood. A city full of people with special abilities. But Ian is drawn to the only one without powers-Abby Pierce.
 
Just when the two are growing closer, a Hunter spy frames Ian for murder, getting him exiled. Ian must risk his sanity and depend on an insane teleporting monk to help him find the city again before Abby falls victim to cold-blooded murder.
-----
The science, archaeology, theology, and history in the Winter's Edge series are real, except in regard to the direct backstory of the two fictitious underground city. Little-known truths about the world are exposed in the book series with solid, irrefutable evidence from mainstream scientific researchers. Book one gives the readers one large dose of this, but the future novels in the series will truly leave the readers speechless.

Told through the eyes of Ian Sharp and Abby Pierce, Winter's Edge is an action adventure urban fantasy for teens and adults alike. Whether it's mystery, twists, a love story, deep philosophical discussion, humor, or loads of tension you're seeking, Winter's Edge delivers it all in a serious yet sometimes hilarious package.

Jane |18+| ✔️ by IMZoetic

When twenty-year-old Jane Albright arrives at the unwelcome conclusion that her life is absolutely aimless, mundane, and downright futile, she makes a rash decision to leave all she's ever known, along with her human zone, in search of a fresh start. Even being incredibly thorough, meticulous and highly wary when mapping out her road trip to the north, the astute woman unknowingly crosses into Blood Moon Territory when she accidentally runs into car trouble and the Alpha himself. Everything Jane has been taught since the ripe age of understanding the tier of her hierarchy and the superior race is either tested or outright disputed, landing her deeper into a world she never wanted to be part of. She constantly fights for her life and freedom while being played and manipulated to the point she teeters on this side of insanity. - Jane - is not your typical human who meets and falls in love with the Alpha kind of read. It's much darker, with pockets of humour and sheer sorrow. The struggle between her heart and mind is a constant brutal battle as she tries to navigate the unrelenting debacle situation she finds herself in. - Jane is a dystopian/paranormal/fictional read chock-full of twists and turns, humour and horror - oh, and a good dash of (throat clear) explicit scenes. Warning: Jane is intended for MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY |18+|. Please be advised there are many sensitive topics present throughout the story, including but not limited to: descriptive violence, strong profanity, and graphic sex scenes.

ELBINA by maybethisisit97

I almost jumped out of my skin when he placed a hand on my neck, shivers ran across my skin as he slowly brushed back the hair from my neck. It seems to last a lifetime, my body craved his thumb grazing along the skin of my neck. I snap out of it when he mumbles quietly, close to my ear so his breath trickles subtly over my neck. "You should probably ice that." My eyes catch his for a second, a whirl of emotions in them that I don't know how to decipher. So I whisper quietly back, afraid if I spoke too loud, it might disrupt this look he was giving me. "It's not that bad." I grabbed his hand, pulling it away from my neck. "There's fucking bite marks Ella." ************************************** Orphaned 17-year old Elbina's new life is simple, or at least it was supposed to be. It isn't made easier by the new feelings stemming for her best friend, Lucas, and certainly not by the strange man watching her when she least expects it. Her well-kept secrets are falling apart at the seams and it's becoming clear her past is catching up with her, the question is whether she can protect all those that she cares about. So maybe, not so simple after all

Ten years after the battle at Single Oak, the four groups of Oregon are still reeling from its after effects. Territory lines were drawn and stories have been told, those who were heroes once are legends now. In order to avoid new conflicts, solstice gatherings between the groups' leaders were organized-but will they be enough? *** Phoenix has grown up only ever knowing two things. One, her group and fathers are the saviors of Oregon. Two, The Reaper's are not to be trusted. So when a mysterious stranger rescues her after a hunting trip gone wrong turns out to be none other than her mortal enemy she begins to wonder, are they all as bad as they seem? The death of Stephan has begun to deteriorate The Reaper's from the inside out. Infighting over who should be their next leader has created countless seasons of lacking supplies and structure. A lack of prey follows a famine. Strong leadership is in order and although Gerald can provide it, debate and rumors are spread about his chosen companion-Aleu, Stephan's once respected apprentice, now glued to his side in a relationship they never wanted-with no say in the matter. The only person who The Reaper's can put their hope into is Hawk, their new general, a powerful man willing to do anything to keep his group thriving. Hawk is torn between keeping his group safe and his own ambition, Aleu is tortured with a constricting life they hate and Phoenix wonders if she can truly trust her new acquaintances. Now the three must make a decision.

Mod Superhero by RealityLocked

For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn't just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero. Except that's just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated. His boss has his own agenda. The boss's daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation. And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero. Superheroes aren't just masks-some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger. How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away? If you're a fan of Cyborg, Winter Soldier, Iron Man, or Batman Beyond, then you don't want to miss this series!
