Maverick always knew there was something not quite right about the steam-powered world he lives in. Perhaps it was the fact that healing crystals were always becoming more and more expensive or maybe it was the infinite amount of power factory owners seemed to wield. When the person he is faced with the threat of losing the person he loves most, he'll do anything to save them even if that means starting a revolution.

Briar never thought there was anything wrong about her magical, steam-powered world. She didn't know she was the only one who had escaped a hell of suppression and being hunted. She didn't know that having magic made her a threat. When she finds herself in a great, sprawling city, betrayed, heartbroken and angry, she will do anything to set the world right again even if that means joining a revolution.All Rights Reserved

Flame in the Dark by AdrianGonzalez917

What was once a bright and happy world. Heroes keeping the peace. Soon plunged into darkness by the Villains. No more Heroes are left, no more law enforcement left to resist, leaving the villains to rule. They have created a system for the unwilling people to follow. It only takes one to break a system. We follow our hero who has had enough of the villains. But he'll have to free one area at a time. (Know that I'm doing the whole irl locations thing to the best of my ability. Also note that this story has some disturbing events that isn't suitable to young audiences.)

Beneath Her Brown Eyes by SupriyaRSingh5

𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 1 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 ♡𝐇𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞♡ 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝐀𝐝𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞, the 𝑪𝑬𝑶 of 𝑹𝒆𝒈𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒂 𝑹𝒐𝒔𝒆, on her path to achieving her goal of becoming the next diamond queen, suddenly faced an unexpected turn of events that sent her straight back to what she always dreaded: marriage. She wasn't gamophobic or philophobic, but the thought of sharing her space, time, and life with someone intimately made her nauseous. But life never goes the way we desire-especially not when we're stubborn enough to resist what it demands. She had dodged relationships in the past like a soldier dodges bullets, but now it seemed inevitable. She had dreamt many things-good, bad, lucky, unlucky-but never imagined being married at the age of 32, that too to someone younger than her. Enter 𝐕𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐡. Looks like a cinnamon roll, is exactly a cinnamon roll. He could've been the golden child of his parents if he hadn't chosen to be a 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒓. Coming from a family of diamond merchants, it was rebellious of him to take such a step-but sometimes young blood, in rebellion, makes the best decisions. He had planned his life perfectly: gain experience, earn money, buy land in North East India, and settle there in the peace of hills and greenery. But oh, my little boy-he is now tied to a marriage he never asked for. And the worst part? He has no idea why someone so beautiful, carrying the aura of buying tens of him, decided to marry 𝒉𝒊𝒎. Not his elder brother. Not any cousin. But him. It wasn't just a shock-it was disbelief. He saw her eyes, and those brown orbs captivated him enough to keep him from noticing the glint of victory behind them. He had never even held a woman's hand in his entire life, yet now being hers made him feel he was in love. But... is she too? What will happen the day he discovers the reason behind the marriage

I Left to Protect Her, and Lost Myself by ch1ck6n

He loved her more than life itself. But love, he believed, wasn't always enough. Haunted by a past he couldn't outrun and a future he feared would destroy her, Zeke made the hardest choice of his life - he walked away from Xyra, the only woman who ever truly saw him. He told himself it was to protect her. To save her from the heartbreak his broken soul would inevitably cause. But time has a cruel way of proving us wrong. Now, years later, Zeke lives in quiet torment, drowning in the silence left behind. She's moved on - or so he tells himself - while he remains stuck in the memory of what could have been. Every missed call, every unwritten letter, every sleepless night is a reminder: he didn't just lose her. He let her go. This is a story of love, regret, and the heavy price of doing what we think is right - even when it shatters everything we truly need. Sometimes, the worst kind of pain... is the one we choose.

Adelphe's Convalescence by Talia_Rhea

He equips them so they can protect themselves, so that they can protect their country. When he stumbles upon a paladin that he doesn't recognize, one that no one even knows exists, he wants to protect her as well, but when he hurts her, does he even have that right any longer? An offer of peace, a broken paladin, and the blacksmith who just wants to see his friends and loved ones safe. This could be the chance to finally end the war that has plagued their people, if the city doesn't collapse under its own shadowy weight.

Lucien: the Light That Was Almost Mine by avengenemesis

I met him at my darkest. He was light-too bright, too beautiful. As if the world could never quite hold him. He had a mischievous smile, eyes full of stars, and a habit of saying the most ridiculous things right when I needed them. He made fun of me and I rolled my eyes. Somehow, in between the sarcasm and stubbornness, he became the only person I didn't want to lose. He offered me a strange deal. I said yes, mostly out of spite. But then he made me laugh again. He made me feel alive. He made me stay. At that time, I didn't know how much he would change me. Or how hard it would be to let him go. He was light. He was MY LIGHT. Not because he stayed, but because he changed everything before he left... Trigger Warning : Mentions of scumbags hurting children, offing yourself, thinking of offing yourself and getting offed by fate. Please be guided. And just so you know, i have this completed on draft.

BROKEN HOPE (Lucas & Emilia Book 2) by ArianaClarkAuthor

I was so damn naive it's no wonder I've ended up here. Kidnapped by the man who promised me forever, just as I'd begun to understand the depths of his betrayal. It's a sad truth I didn't marry my husband for love. I married him for the life he promised to provide, and if I'm honest with myself, I married him in hopes one day he'd fill the void Lucas-my first love-left behind. Now after so many years, they're both back. And in my desperation to feel loved, to be wanted and chosen I've walked straight into this trap. All because I forgot life's harshest lesson... I'm not enough. No matter how much or how fiercely I love, the choice will never be me. Especially now. Surrounded by danger and at the mercy of my husband's enemies, I'm forced to face one final bit of truth. Much like love, hope is for the weak. I was a fool to believe in the vows and promises they made. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 2 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc. For the complete experience, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.
