Mateo Gulverres is a follower to the lesser known Gah'lia, the Ascended Goddess. In a religion that praises experimentation, understanding, and science over demands of blind faith, Mateo's natural curiosity with the macabre and more gruesome aspects of life has led him on a path of medical inquiry and exploration. When rumors of an unknown plague affecting the small town of Dosalda cropped up, Mateo is quick to volunteer himself to head to the town and try and make sense of the inexplicable and deadly illness.
Working alone in a town closed up in quarantine is dismal enough, but when events start occurring that defy reasonable explanation, the practicing doctor soon questions if his slip in sanity is just a side-effect of an on-setting illness, or if there's something far more unimaginable at play in the silent town...

A half-angel, half-demon girl on the run. A childhood friend turned betrayer. A dying boyfriend she's desperate to save. And a monstrous father who wants her heart-for power, not love. Inara Astaroth has never truly been safe. Born to an angel mother and a demon vessel, her very existence is a threat-especially to the godless deity who lives within her father and wants to consume her heart to ascend. After surviving her father's violent return and the betrayal of her closest friend, Inara has spent most of her life in hiding-until now. With her boyfriend Cyrus slowly succumbing to an incurable magical sickness, Inara embarks on a journey across a fractured land in search of a mythical cure, accompanied by the last person she ever wanted to see again: Kota, the werewolf boy who once led her into a trap that nearly got her killed. As they travel through cursed forests, collapsing shrines, and time-bending ruins, old wounds begin to reopen-and so do old feelings. Inara doesn't know what's worse: the growing tension between her and Kota, or the creeping realization that her heart may not belong entirely to Cyrus anymore. But with her father still hunting her and the cure buried deep beneath the sea in a lost city guarded by ancient powers, she doesn't have the luxury of doubt. Because she's not just trying to save the boy she loves- She's trying to outrun the fate written in her blood. **A lush and haunting romantic fantasy, perfect for fans of emotionally complex characters, dangerous magic, found family, and star-crossed lovers.**Complete
Too Dark for you to Love
In the gloomy town of Deathmoure, located amidst misty landscapes, people possessed an unusual trait - they couldn't inflict death on anyone, including themselves. It was a pacifist's dark utopia but for my grieving heart of a white widow, it was a prison - a sanctuary of despair. Needing a path out of this grief-stricken existence, I began my search for a reaper who could aid in my departure. With the newly arrived reaper, broad-shouldered with a charismatic, sly charm that was hard to withstand, I found myself engulfed in a bizarre investigation. Mysterious events began occurring within our rainy town, pointing indirectly toward my mysterious reaper. Amidst this chaos, an unlikely sentiment blossomed within me - love. As the investigation deepened, so did the connection between me and my reaper. It was an unexpected twist, a cosmic joke. I was no longer an icy fortress but a hopeful woman, falling in love with the man who was uncovering the darkest secrets of the people around me. The fighting spirit dormant for so many years in me, now roared to life. August 2023 #1 in dieforyouComplete
