SO DARK...

After suffering unparalleled tragedy, Leah Middleton knows she's fortunate to be taken in at her deceased mother's ancestral home. But the disdain her family - The Knights of Red Ridge Hall - held for her free-spirited mother is transferred to Leah, and they revel in letting her know it. A proud and noble family, the Knights hold expectations Leah doesn't believe she can meet, certainly not while staying true to her loving, system-defying parents, and especially when it comes to Dr Grayson Slade. He is as far from a desirable match as her family could imagine, and to make matters worse, she learns he holds secrets that can tear her newfound security from her tenuous grasp.

ONLY LOVE'S LIGHT CAN SHINE THROUGH

Doctor Grayson Slade is assistant to Dr Theodore Knight, founder of The Knight Society, a benevolent institution for unwanted and ill children. Grayson himself was rescued off the streets of London as a boy and he wants no more in life than what he has attained. Until the moment he lays eyes on Leah Middleton. But evil is flourishing, and he can only do so much to stop it. As mysteries begin to unravel, unthinkable truths are revealed and a malevolent threat closes in. Grayson knows he has no choice - he must do what's right to keep Leah's love.جميع الحقوق محفوظة

Each day feels as heavy as the last, yet he pushes through the pain and the trauma. Troubles arise as he faces the true damage Charlie left behind from years of abuse-everything he touches seems to fracture, from his romantic relationships to his bonds with friends and family. Haunted by flashbacks and nightmares, Grayson sinks deeper into despair, making choices that threaten to tear his world apart. Old secrets surface like thorns, ready to reopen his wounds as he confronts the chilling truths about his father and the mystery surrounding his mother's death. Even with Julian and Russell standing by him, he feels trapped in a cage meticulously crafted by Charlie's wicked hands. Will he discover the strength to break free before the shadows close in and consume him whole?

The SPECTRE Of The VATICAN © بقلم RobertLHarpur

CARTER CHEVAL, the Anchor and lead investigative journalist on the After Dark TV program has everything to live for now, having won the love of his life LAYLA, yet finds himself dead in the HereAfter. Gunned down in a seemingly senseless shooting, he is shown a movie of his life on Earth which is all a lie. He enlists the help of a ghostly figure, TEACHER, to try and save his friends and family from a similar fate. So Carter, a ghost on a mission, from the HereAfter must use the information from his life movie to disentangle the web of lies surrounding his life and death. He must try to exact his revenge, and save his family and friends before the protection of Vatican Secrets results in them all prematurely joining him in the afterlife. His only chance to stop these evil forces is to get his recently revealed biological father, PETER, now a high priest and Keeper of Secrets in the Vatican, to kill for him. However, this seemingly impossible task becomes easier after an epic spirit battle between them. The possibility of Carter's spirit being stuck in his father's body wasn't exactly part of the plan to make his father ultimately pay for any part he played in the conspiracy and perhaps even in Carter's own murder.

Where Shadows Wait بقلم Author_Alice_Avery

Eleanor March inherits a crumbling manor on the English moors, unaware that its halls are steeped in tragedy. Each previous owner met a violent death, and whispers abound that the house is cursed. As Eleanor restores the estate, she begins to experience vivid, dreamlike visions of past lives lived within its walls. These aren't just memories-they're love stories, betrayals, and tragedies that seem eerily connected to her. A mysterious groundskeeper, Gideon Wells, offers to help Eleanor navigate the estate's treacherous grounds. Gideon's stoic demeanor and deep knowledge of the manor hint at his own ties to its history. As Eleanor grows closer to him, she uncovers that Gideon's family has served the manor for generations-and he knows more about its violent past than he lets on. When the visions take a darker turn, Eleanor realizes she's not just seeing the past-she's reliving it. A sinister force within the house is manipulating her, drawing her into its web. And when Gideon's connection to a tragic love story in the manor's history comes to light, Eleanor must decide whether to trust him-or if he's part of the curse.

Dirty Hands- The City Of Whisperers بقلم krixie_vold

The last time Kaia saw her mother, she was nothing more than a pale shadow of the vibrant woman who had once been the heart of their kingdom. Her mother's breath came in shallow, labored gasps, the sickness claiming her slowly, piece by piece. But it was the words her mother spoke before her final breath that Kaia would carry with her forever. "The world is not as it seems, my love. Trust in yourself. Trust in the wind." Kaia didn't understand them then, but she would-soon enough. Her kingdom, once a land of magic and power, was falling apart. In the days before, the whispers had started. The sound of the earth, the wind, and the water; forces long ignored were now seen as a threat. Whisperers, beings like Kaia, who could bend the elements to their will, were hunted, sold, and killed like animals. But the true collapse of everything came after her mother's death. Her father, once a proud ruler, crumbled under the weight of his own guilt. And Kaia, filled with grief and rage, ran. She couldn't bear to stay any longer, not in the ashes of a kingdom that no longer cared for its people-or its whisperers. It was in her flight that she was taken. Abducted by the Rahibils, the hunters of the unspoken kind, who dealt in stolen souls. And in that dark, suffocating world of cages and chains, she met Reez-a stranger with eyes as sharp as the blade he wielded, and a heart hardened by the same cruel fate. They would be each other's strength in the days to come, as they plotted escape, and as Kaia learned the true meaning of freedom. But freedom, she would soon learn, came at a price higher than she could have ever imagined. The world was not as it seemed. She would find out soon enough just how deep the darkness went, and how far she was willing to go to uncover the truth. But only if she doesn't get herself killed first.
