THE PORTRAIT OF YOU
After a tragic accident destroys her career and reputation, Ava Vale walks away from the world of interior design and reinvents herself as a traveling restorer of forgotten art, she finds purpose in restoring what others abandoned. She hides behind brushes and varnish, far from the city that broke her spirit-until a call sends her to the crumbling estate of Caelum Thorne, a brilliant painter who vanished years ago. What she expects: a house full of decaying canvases. What she finds: a man still mourning the woman who left him... and a portrait that looks exactly like her. Same face. Same lips. Same haunting beauty. The only difference? The eyes. Ava's are brown. The woman in the painting-Evelyn-had piercing blue. When Callum sees her, he falls apart. "You came back to me," he whispers. But Ava is not Evelyn. She's not a ghost, not a muse, not the girl who left him behind. And yet... he paints her. Again and again. Desperate to reclaim her identity, Ava strikes a deal: She'll help him find Evelyn-if he hands over all of his art. But the longer she stays, the more she sees the man behind the madness. And the more Caelum paints, the more he sees Ava-not the memory. Until one day, Evelyn returns. And Ava must decide if she's strong enough to walk away from a man who never asked her to stay. But behind every portrait... a secret waits to be answered-why did Evelyn leave? A love story layered with obsession, identity, and betrayal. He spent years painting the woman who left. Until a stranger taught him how to love someone who stayed.Complete
Shadowbound Hearts
Elara Vance (22) exchanged one prison for another. After years of quiet endurance, the desperate night she fought back and killed her abusive father landed her in Blackwell Penitentiary. Out of place, fragile, and marked by trauma, she craves the anonymity of the stone walls-but anonymity is a luxury Blackwell doesn't afford. The man who truly runs this world of steel and concrete is Asher 'Reyes' Thorne (27). He's an incarcerated crime lord, a kingpin serving multiple life sentences for calculated murders, whose influence flows like a cold current through every cell block. When Asher sees Elara-the quiet, defiant woman with fire in her eyes, jailed for justifiable violence-he doesn't see a victim; he sees a kindred spirit he intends to own. Their relationship begins as a terrifying contract: Asher offers her absolute protection from the brutality of the guards and the cruelty of the inmates. In return, she owes him only her attention. But in the confined, suffocating space of Blackwell, proximity is poison. Their tense, transactional meetings-whispered words across the common room, charged silence in the visiting booths-quickly ignite into a desperate, forbidden need. Elara begins to chip away at the monster, discovering the strategic intelligence and fierce loyalty beneath the calculated darkness. Asher, in turn, finds his iron control shattered by the fragile defiance of the one person he can't truly cage. Shadowbound Hearts is the story of two souls defined by violence, finding dangerous comfort in the one place they are most exposed. In a place where freedom is impossible, they must decide if their forbidden love is the ultimate act of rebellion, or the final, irreversible surrender to the shadows.
The Duchesses
Aurora opens her eyes only to feel the agonising pain in her body. That is to be expected when there has been an accident. It's excruciatingly painful. Aurora groans in pain and pulls off the blanket, taking in her surroundings. It is more appropriate for a hospital interior design to look to the mediaeval era. Not shabby, but more on the extravagant side. The nurses' attire, on the other hand, appears odd. Someone said out of nowhere, "Her Grace, please wake up! Call the doctor right away!" Aurora approaches the mirror and looks at the woman with deep red eyes in it. The woman had blonde hair that, while a little messy, flowed perfectly over her shoulder. Her fair complexion lends her an ethereal appearance. Not to mention that her outfits make her look like a noblewoman from a historical series. She pinches herself, only to realise that the blonde woman staring at her is herself. A thought struck her mind, as she utters her first statement in this world, "Fuck me". Medea has finished her work, but she is still unsure how to fix all of the messes. She hasn't been herself in a long time, and it's bothering her. The throne seems so far away, and the weight of the burden grows heavier with each passing day. A letter from the Imperial Palace has arrived, instructing the Duchess to look after the House of Smith's Duchess of Light, Natalie Wilson Smith. As an evil scheme was about to unfold, she smiled wickedly. 'This is my new card.' p/s: I can't find the original owner of the photo of the cover, if you know or you are the owner of the cover.

Forgotten

All I Need ✔️
"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complete
