Where Time Forgot Us
What if the dream you couldn't forget... was a memory from a life you never lived? Solene never believed in soulmates, fate, or past lives-until she dreamed of him. A boy with brown eyes. A forgotten notebook. And two simple words: "Found you." She woke up shaken. Days later, she saw him in real life-walking past her like the world hadn't just shifted. But there's one problem: he doesn't know her. Not yet. As strange coincidences unfold and timelines begin to blur, Solene and Cael are pulled into a mystery that feels bigger than either of them-like the universe is trying to remind them of something they once had, and lost. Memories that never happened. Places they've never been... but somehow remember. A love story trapped between versions. Somewhere in all the timelines, they were real. The question is-can they find their way back in this one? A soft, slow-burn romance about love, memory, and the version of us that stays.Complete

NOCTUARY: A journal of my dreams
What if your dreams weren't just dreams, but a second life you live every night? Be warned: what you read here could change the way you sleep forever. NOCTUARY is the logbook of that parallel life. It is not a collection of fantasies, but the raw-and at times terrifying-narrative of a soul that leaves its body each night to venture into the world. These are inexplicable chronicles of dreams: experiences in real places, with real people, and the strange ability to return to bed at will. But the return is never complete. The border between worlds is permeable, and something always seeps through. Each awakening is a race against forgetting: to decipher the last night's revelation or warning, to understand how it's possible to return not just with memories, but with proof. Sometimes, it's with a bit of real dust on your feet. These stories immerse you in a reality where the rules are broken and the questions become unsettling: What is consciousness when it can leave the body? And what is the real world when you can bring back fragments from another? After reading this, you will never sleep the same way again.
The Exhibit
For those who love Egypt, Egyptology and romance! Dr. Hannah Browning is the head Egyptologist at the British Museum in London. She is the only American in the institution and she knows her stuff, having gone to Egypt over a dozen times for excavations, and having completed doctorates in Egyptology, Archaeology, and Anthropology. Her expertise and people skills are tested, though, when the museum recruits a young and intelligent Egyptologist from the Cairo Museum in Egypt, Dr. Edward Zuberi. He is to assist Hannah in preparing artifacts that were found in the famous Ahkmenrah Exhibition in Luxor, Egypt for the new Ahkmenrah exhibit in the museum... but difficulties come about in starting up this new exhibit when head-butting opinions, theft, threatening, and even romance, arises. Disclaimer: The Egyptian kings that are mentioned in the story are made up, and some details about Egyptian history may be wrong. I'm still researching.Complete
