"Millions of reasons, Tanya. All perfectly legal, or perfectly arranged to seem that way. I don't make threats. I explain consequences." He stepped close to her again, cupping her chin with his hand. His touch was like ice. She was too terrified to pull away. "So, you will sit tight. You will go to your school. You will teach my nephew. And you will look very, very pretty while doing it. You will not make me angry again. Understood?" A single, hot tear of pure, helpless rage escaped and traced a path down her cheek. He saw it. His dark eyes glittered with a perverse kind of satisfaction. He leaned in, his lips brushing her cheekbone where the tear had fallen. The kiss was chillingly soft, a brand of ownership. "You see?" he murmured, his breath warm against her skin. "You look so pretty when you cry angrily. Like a good girl who finally understands her place." ___________________________________________ Love is a lie they tell to make obsession sound pretty. When Vardaan Rathore, a man whose bloodline was woven with power and violence, walked into her classroom, Tanya saw a negligent uncle. He saw the first and last woman who would ever tell him no. His obsession became her sentence. There was no courtship. Only a silent, brutal campaign of possession. Her life decided to conquer a queen, and the beautiful, terrible ruin he made of her in the process. #1 forced love #1 Darklove #1 toxichero #1 runawayheroine #1 Captive Romance #1 Manipulation #1 Political Romance #1 hacker #1 Brokenheroine #1 Forcedintimacy #1 Forced relation #1 Darkromancebooks #3 Indian #3 desi #3 teacher #4 badboy #4 broken #6 possessivehero #33 toxic #35 Dark romance #58 youngadult
Death's Shadow, Life's Thread by KT_Threadweaver
48 parts Complete
For years, the city has feared magic, but The Cleansing's killing spree against magicals ignited full-scale unrest. Though Zara, a necromancer, and Kage, a shadow-wielding detective, stopped him, The Cleansing became a martyr, fueling the rise of the Sovereign Order, a group bent on erasing magicals. As tensions rise, a new horror emerges-people found drained of life, their blood drawn from their bodies. The city fears Bloodspawn, but when Kage and Zara track him down, they find Malrick, a terrified orphan with rare Bloodborn magic-a power feared even among magicals. He never meant to kill, but without control, he's dangerous. And the Sovereign Order wants him dead. Determined to help him master his power, Zara and Kage take Malrick in, but as more magicals vanish and the Order tightens its grip, they must ask: Can Malrick be saved, or will his magic ignite a war? A story of magic, redemption, and found family, Death's Shadow, Life's Thread explores the fine line between destruction and salvation-and what it truly means to be feared.

Graylands is where people go when they don't want to be found. A neutral, mostly frontier country between two opposing empires, it is a haven for drifters, pilgrims, outlaws, and everything in between hoping to build a new life, find adventure, or just disappear. Katrina Lamont is one such individual. Once upon a time, she was the Chosen One--a warrior charged with a great and heroic destiny. But when she finished her journey, there was no happy ending waiting for her. Now she lives as an embittered, alcoholic drifter, haunted by the ghosts of her past. But when an evil sorcerer, Jacob Daredin, seeks to fulfill an ancient prophecy that may grant him god-like power, Katrina will have to take up the sword once again as she finds herself caught in a race to find the young woman whose sacrifice is the key to Daredin's mad dream. Along the way, she will contend with Krutch Leeroy--an infamous outlaw who is not all he seems--and cross paths with Lily Blackthorn--a perky, but mysterious woman with a dark secret of her own. As Daredin's forces close in, they will traverse a haunted landscape of pirates, demons, killers, con-men, an immortal juggernaut, and worse in an adventure where the line between destiny and plain bad luck is razor thin. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is an excerpt from my first novel, which was released in April of 2015 and named to Kirkus Review's Best Books of that year.
