Promise Me Altea by Melora2U

Liz woke up in a stranger's body... and into a life dripping with secrets. Altea was sweet. Soft-spoken. The kind of girl no one suspected-until it was too late. Now Liz walks in her skin, carrying ghosts, questions, and a heart that's not hers. But someone is watching her. Someone who sees too much. And then there's him-the detective with storm-cloud eyes and a past that cuts like glass. He's supposed to find the truth. She's supposed to stay hidden. But when their paths collide, something dangerous begins to stir... something neither of them can control. In a city where every smile could be a lie and every death could be deliberate, love is the most dangerous trap of all. A haunting thriller laced with slow-burn romance, identity twists, and deadly intentions-where nothing is what it seems, and no one walks away clean.

In the golden age of Hollywood, Jameson Hart is America's sweetheart-a dashing, blue-eyed film star with golden hair, a killer smile, and the leading man in every woman's fantasy. But the only woman who has ever truly had his heart is Clara Hart-his radiant, devoted wife.

While the tabloids speculate on co-star romances and secret scandals, Jameson remains the picture-perfect family man, attending red carpets by night and making pancakes for Clara and David in the mornings. But their picture-perfect world begins to crack when tragedy strikes the silver screen. One by one, the leading ladies of Jameson's recent films are found murdered-each discovered in their dressing rooms with a single, eerie calling card: a set prop from the film they starred in with Jameson. A perfume bottle, a bloodied script, a broken vanity mirror. The scenes are staged with obsessive detail. The city is in a panic. Whispers circle. Reporters flock. Suspicion sharpens. And Jameson Hart is the prime suspect. Though the public begins to doubt him, Clara never does. Not for a moment. Fiercely loyal and quietly brilliant, Clara begins her own quiet investigation alongside the police detective assigned to the case. Her instincts tell her that someone is watching them. That the killer is playing a game-a dangerous script leading to a final scene. The murders grow closer to home. The clues are more theatrical. Clara discovers a chilling pattern in the killer's timing and realizes the next victim is already marked.

A Touch of Ruin by ez_is_here

Some love stories are written in blood. She was never meant to be his. So why does losing her feel like dying? Bodyguard. Broken boy. A girl with secrets-and the war that tears them apart. He was a weapon forged in darkness. She was the one thing he swore to protect. Seraphina Ellington was raised in silk, secrets, and shadows. She was never supposed to find out-until she did. Now the truth has teeth, and it's coming for her. The only thing standing between her and the chaos? A bodyguard with scars deeper than she can see. Maverick Reign doesn't protect people. He eliminates threats. Cold, calculating, and painfully off-limits, he's not the type to babysit a girl who talks with her hands and names stray kittens. But orders are orders, and she's under his skin faster than a trigger pull. He has rules. She breaks them. She has secrets. He sees through them. And when everything goes to hell, they only have two choices: burn down the world together... or watch each other turn to ash. Author's Note: Hey everyone! First of all, thank you so much for choosing to read my story! I'm a very young writer, and this book is my little passion project-full of drama, angst, romance, and two characters who are as stubborn as they are complicated. I've poured a lot of heart (and probably too many late-night writing sessions) into this, and I really hope you enjoy it! And thank you again! -- D.R.
