Whispers of the Abyss
The city is plagued by whispers-shadows that slither through alleyways, unseen hands that brush against skin in the dead of night. Seraphina Duskborne has always felt them watching, lurking just beyond her reach. But when one finally steps into the light, she realizes she was never meant to be ordinary. Lucian, a being woven from darkness and desire, was sent to claim her soul. Bound to the Abyss, he is a hunter of wayward fates-a creature with no heart, no mercy. Yet, something about Seraphina unsettles him, tempts him, makes him hunger in ways he shouldn't. She is not just a mortal. And he is not just her executioner. As their fates intertwine, Seraphina finds herself trapped in a dangerous game of seduction, secrets, and power. Lucian is both her captor and her obsession, his touch sinful, his presence inescapable. But there are greater forces at play-forces that want her dead, and Lucian broken. In the end, one of them must fall. But will it be to darkness-or to desire?Concluída
Grim Echoes
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.Concluída
