Beneath the wealth and prestige of the Blackwood family lies a web of secrets, corruption, and betrayal. When Issac Parker, an ambitious and sharp-witted outsider, steps into their world alongside his boyfriend, Lysander Blackwood, he unknowingly ignites a chain of events that will shake the very foundations of the Blackwood empire.

The Blackwoods are not just an old-money dynasty-they are gatekeepers of influence, wealth, and unspeakable crimes hidden behind closed doors. When Issac stumbles upon a conspiracy that threatens not only Lysander but countless lives, he makes a choice: infiltrate, manipulate, and destroy the Blackwood name from the inside out. But the deeper he digs, the more perilous the game becomes. Loyalties are tested, alliances are formed in the shadows, and a silent war begins beneath the gilded chandeliers and marble halls of Blackwood Manor. With each move, Issac gathers allies-some unexpected, some just as dangerous as the enemies he seeks to dismantle. In this thrilling, high-stakes battle of power, who will make it out unscathed? And when the final truth is revealed, will Issac and Lysander have the strength to finish what they started? Secrets can build empires. But the truth? The truth can burn them to the ground.

As their paths collide again, both will have to choose between the past that shaped them-and a future that might just ruin them. Because in a world ruled by secrets, the most dangerous weapon isn't a bullet. It's the heart. Thank you for sticking around. I hope you read till the end.

Beyond the Frame by Crimson_Skii

When Detective Evie Graves is called to a prestigious art museum to investigate the violent deaths of two restoration experts, she expects another tragic but solvable case. But as she uncovers the details of their untimely end, one chilling truth becomes clear: something far darker than simple human violence lurks in the shadows of the museum. A single painting-hidden away and left covered by a cloth-holds the key. As Evie dares to uncover its secrets, strange whispers begin to echo through the halls, and the line between reality and nightmare begins to fade. With every passing moment, the painting's influence grows, bending her mind, distorting her senses, and drawing her deeper into its madness. Is the curse real, or is it all in her head? Either way, Evie is about to find out-if she can hold on to her sanity long enough to uncover the truth.

RoseBlood by meeshapatricia

Roses have many representations. For Holly Cassia, it's one of pure dread. Dread knowing that the RoseBlood Killer has murdered both of her parents in a poetically twisted way, and now they're after her, leaving only threatening love notes and blood-red roses to remind her that they're closer than she thinks... and they aren't going anywhere. Before they can strike, though, the equally unusual Tyrel Trust, a group of three detective siblings involved in helping solve the case, takes Holly away from her home and to a place where she can work with them to expose the obsessive killer safely. However, time is ticking, and Holly is the last victim in the murderer's sights. If she dies, she's sure that they'll disappear for good, and the case will go cold. But can she learn to trust the Tyrels, especially Emerson, who seems more alike to her than anyone she's met before? Could the strange murder that happened in their own family three years ago be connected to the one that took away the Cassias' lives? And will the Tyrels manage to reopen the cold case that left them fatherless, to solve The Case of the RoseBlood Killer once and for all, or will the truth remain buried? "Roses are red, "Blood is too, "You're better off dead, "I'm coming for you."
