The novel was officially published in Poland on 04/12/2023 as an ebook and was later distributed in print. Here you can read a part of it. It will soon be distributed as an ebook on American Amazon and Apple Books in English.
"'Phoenix' is both a slice-of-life and erotic novel that delves into the socially controversial theme of love. On one hand, it weaves a tale of rediscovery and returning to a semblance of normality after losing loved ones, offering a vivid portrayal of emerging from the depths of depression, panic attacks, and a deep exploration of the various mental states of someone unsure about their will to live. The protagonist, a painter, amidst this tumultuous journey, encounters Maris, a shining star of the Polish music scene. His youth, fervor, and untamed spirit sweep her into an unexpected odyssey - a journey filled with emotions, self-discovery, and a battle for her mental well-being.
On the flip side, 'Phoenix' also chronicles the life of Maris, a celebrity and vocalist seemingly at the pinnacle of fame. His hedonistic lifestyle is a facade, a means to avoid confronting his introspective nature and a burdensome past. What initially appears to be glittering success soon reveals itself as a house of cards, fragile and easily toppled. Amidst the pendulum swing of events and experiences, our characters shimmer, reflecting and redefining themselves as if in mirrors, embarking on a quest of rebirth.
The first volume concludes with a cliffhanger.

Duality [H.S.]
DUALITY - the sequel to IT'S YOU! [Mature] *Please note: There will be spoilers for the first book from below onwards... You don't necessarily need to have read and finished IT'S YOU to understand DUALITY, but it will be more rewarding if you do. If you want a refresher, there's an index at the end of that book, summarising each chapter and the subsequent one shots too. Despite all the challenges, Harry and Eloise have had their busiest couple of years to date. With new movies, tours, an album, a beauty brand, writing, promotion, and - not least - parenthood, they've had a lot to contend with throughout the pandemic. Working together on one truly iconic project was supposed to help bring them closer, not risk bringing them to breaking point. Trying to balance their professional and personal lives is already hard enough when it's all played out in the public eye, but it proves harder still when the storyline seems to start blurring between the two. Pressure, competition, jealousy, coercion, manipulation, deception, guilt... With such high stakes, it's hard to know who to trust, especially when things turn out to be not quite what they seem. In the eye of the storm, it can be hard to keep a grasp on what's real, and what really matters, after all. Please note: This is intended as an exercise in character development and descriptive writing. Harry features heavily - because he's incredibly charismatic and so talented - but I will be mindful to be as respectful as possible. Disclaimers: Contains mature content! And I have no links to Harry, nor any of his associates, nor to Bond or any of the other familiar names mentioned. I'm just borrowing him and them as familiar points of reference for not-for-profit artistic license.Complete
Facing Fear | ✓ ONC 2023 Honorable Mention
| 𝟏𝟐𝐱 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 | An ex-gamer enters a virtual reality ruled by a rebel AI in order to rescue her younger sister and shut down the death game. * * * Eight years ago, Mori Fukutomi held the rank of number two player in the tactical hero shooter game SniperX. But fate and her parents had other plans and Mori now works as an accountant with her dreams of being a pro gamer long since buried. Games like SniperX are old relics in the face of virtual reality tech and their latest gem, Facing Fear--a simulation designed to analyze the psyche of its players and adapt itself accordingly, creating a safe terrain for players to take risks and discover themselves. Until FEAR, the AI governing the virtual world of Valor, decides the thing humanity fears most is death. Despite the rising death toll and Facing Fear closing its doors, when Mori discovers her sister Shiori is trapped in the game, she does the unthinkable. She goes in after her. But she'll soon discover they're not the only ones desperate to make it out alive and there are worse things in Valor than the monsters. There's more to FEAR than fear itself. ✧ 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 ✧ 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 ✧ 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 ✧ ─────────────────────────────────── Completed: 4-23-2023 Word Count: 35,000 - 40,000Complete![Revenge Is A Dish Best Served [Larry Stylinson]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/277733662-256-k457757.jpg)

I do, however, find myself constantly intrigued by the weak. It's something about the way they fall submissive to a dominate.

The way in which the increased heartbeat becomes so evident whether they are in fear or overwhelmed in lust. And I guess that's what intrigued me most about YOU. - - - - - - - - - - - - Both Harry & Louis find themselves consistently obsessed with each other for the entirety of senior year at Charlotte High School, yet neither one of them care to do anything about it.

Over Rain's Edge
Hello dear reader! First, thank you for deciding to click on this ongoing novel. It already means so much! It is my first and I will try to write as much as I can despite the fact that I have a day job. Please do let me know if you have any feedback or thoughts about the story so far. Thank you and I hope you join me on this journey. --- In a digital realm where fantasy and reality intertwine, two souls meet in an online game that transcends distance and convention. Aurora, a successful London lawyer who appears to have the world at her feet, hides her inner turmoil, while Andrei, a globe-trotting financial adviser longing for a true home, finds solace in their virtual connection. What starts as playful camaraderie soon deepens into a poignant romance, with shared quests and whispered secrets composing a bittersweet symphony of desire and vulnerability. Yet, the intimacy nurtured online cannot fully capture the tangible moments of life-the gentle patter of rain on city streets, the comforting sound of a familiar voice, the fleeting magic of a sunrise experienced firsthand. One of them harbours a quiet envy, not of a rival, but of the experiences that remain just out of reach, a silent ache for the parts of life they miss sharing together. As their conversations evolve into a delicate dance of honesty and vulnerability, they confront the challenge of balancing the roles of protector and free spirit in each other's lives. "Over Rain's Edge" becomes a metaphor for the threshold where digital dreams merge with the stark reality of human longing-a modern love story that rejects clichéd tropes in favor of an unvarnished exploration of desire, hope, and heartbreak. In this narrative, romance is portrayed not as a flawless ideal but as a tender, fragile connection that I hope would leave an indelible mark long after you finished the story.
