Meanwhile, Rosemary and her young daughter seek to escape the iron-like grip of an abusive father. In a village of rituals and whispers, they must abandon their moral compass if they are to survive his wrath.

Blood in the Hollow
Ireland, 1851. The land is starved, the Church is silent, and something ancient stalks the night. Declan O'Rourke, a former seminarian turned vampire hunter, has spent years chasing whispers of the "White Widow of Glanmire" - a seductive undead temptress haunting the countryside. His mission is clear: find her, destroy her, and silence the darkness she sows. But Siobhán Ní Fhíochna is no mindless monster. Bound to a fading aristocracy and cursed with memory and mercy, she has resisted her own kind for centuries. When a far older, brutal vampire - the feral-born Murchadh mac Fáelán - rises with an army of blood-thirsting zealots and a genocidal vision for vampire "purity," both hunter and hunted must become reluctant allies. As Declan and Siobhán journey through ash-choked villages, ruined abbeys, and blood-drenched rituals, their mutual hatred begins to twist into something dangerous: understanding, then longing, then love. But the line between salvation and damnation grows thin. And when Murchadh offers Siobhán a place among his pure-born ranks - if she'll kill Declan herself - her final choice may either doom the world... or bind them together for eternity.Concluida
Time
We are told "time heals all wounds" and "only time will tell". Time is a precious thing. It's a gift. Time decides so much. It can change quickly or seem to morph in slow motion. Time is undefined. What would happen if we travelled through time? What if who we are is still to be defined? Only time will tell. How would, or could, our lives change, with the gift of time? **** Erin Clark is a single mom raising her daughter, Ashlynn. Mysteriously they are transported back in time to 15th century Ireland just before a pivotal time in our history. What happens when she encounters the brooding, stubborn and mysterious leader of a clan? Will things get complicated when his brother-in-law shows a strong interest in Erin? Are his intentions honorable? How will they get home? Or will they have to embrace this new "fairy tale" time period? What will this gift of time unfold?

The Alpha's Sierra
"I'm going to erase and replace that man-every man-from your mind," Alexander's grip on me tightens. A snarl escaping his lips to remind me exactly what he is. "By the time we're through, I'll be so deeply embedded in you, you'll ask yourself whether you truly had real pleasure before me." I can't even help my gasp, "Oh my God." "This is where Hell freezes over, Sierra." There's a light click. "There is no God here." *** Cold. That's the only way to describe the Sierra Pack. A Pack known for its ruthlessness and brutality. But when you live so high in the snowcapped mountains, only the strongest survive. The only thing icier than their glaciers is their blood lusting Alpha-Alexander. Hot. Sierra came into her powers at an older age than any other Witch or Warlock. Her ability to manipulate fire has always been seen as destructive and chaotic. But Sierra has always found the beauty in the most feared. With secrets, customs, and traditions in the Sierra, can fire and ice learn to dance with one another? Or will the mountains prove to be too cold for even the hottest of flames? *** Works as stand alone The Wolves of Imperium Book #4 (Sequel to Rebelling the Alpha King) 18+ themes of violence and sex.

Beautifully Broken (CallMeKevin Fanfic)
Dylan Condren has always been the quiet one-the girl who found comfort in silence and safety in her brother's shadow. Growing up five years behind Daniel Condren-better known to the world as RTGame-meant she was never truly alone... but never truly seen, either. Home became her whole world. School was too loud, people too unpredictable. So she stayed inside, tucked away behind screens and soft words, clinging to the one person who never made her feel too much or not enough. But when Daniel's best friend Kevin enters the picture, everything shifts. He's gentle in ways she doesn't expect, funny in ways that make her forget her fear, and kind in ways that terrify her. Because for the first time, someone other than her brother makes her feel safe. And maybe that's what scares her most. Because falling for someone when you've spent your life hiding... might be the bravest-and most dangerous-thing she's ever done.Concluida

It's patient, and it has it's set on a target...Her Visions bleed into reality. Memories that aren't hers claw their way into her mind. A forgotten man-Dionys Kaltheris, a soul twisted by betrayal and agony-reaches for her through the cracks of time. Yet the more she learns of his pain, the harder it becomes to tell who the true monster is, the hollow spirit that haunts her, or the world that made him. As the veil between the living and the dead begins to tear, Elowen discovers that the restless are not alone. Spirits roam the earth-some lost, others consumed by vengeance-and from beneath them rise the Demons of the Underworld, the architects of suffering who keep souls chained to despair. Drawn into a war she never chose, Elowen must decide whether to fight for the living, to save herself and her loved ones-or to understand the dead. Her path will cross fear, grief, a soulless spirit that has his eyes on her, her brother reaching out from the afterlife itself, memories that aren't hers, spirit exorcists, fractured loyalties, and truths too heavy to bear. And when the time comes, she'll learn that some salvation demands sacrifice.
