The bullet wound should have killed him. Now it won't heal.

Henry Cauville moved to the sleepy seaside village of Tortus Bay to start a new life, but found himself in the middle of a murder investigation. The death of Mathas Bernard, a beloved leader, has shaken the community and drawn bizarre stories out of the locals. They talk about magic. They talk about a festival that the village holds at the end of each month.

To uncover the truth of his unhealing wound, Henry must piece together the details of Mathas' death, deal with a mystical awakening, and confront a small-town curse that has been gathering strength for decades. Welcome to Tortus Bay.

Shadows Under the Crown by FallenPrince121

Tarus was never meant to live. Cursed at birth, he was born without magic-a death sentence in a world where magic means everything. His only saving grace was a divine blessing from Alios, the God of Healing, granting him immortality and the ability to heal any wound. But what should have been a gift became a curse, draining his very life force instead of restoring it. As he wishes to Uncover the truth. His path collides with hers-the daughter of the man who sits on the throne. Sharp-witted and bound by duty, she upholds her father's rule, unaware of the bloody past that secured his power. She doesn't know who Tarus really is. And neither does the king. Yet, despite the secrets and the lies, an undeniable tension grows between them-an unspoken connection neither can explain. But in a world where power is everything, and betrayal lurks in every shadow, what happens when the truth finally comes to light? A tale of magic, betrayal, divine power, and a love neither of them can afford. The balance of life and death rests in the hands of a reaper who was never meant to exist. Are you ready to uncover the truth?

In Harmstead Bay, secrets are currency, and fake smiles hide real betrayals. This elite seaside town is ruled by wealth and power, where you're either somebody or work for somebody. The rich kids burn through money like oxygen, never knowing what it means to struggle. A year ago, fourteen friends set sail. Only four returned. Their story was airtight: a fire, a sinking boat, ten lives lost to the ocean. They moved on, distanced themselves, and buried the past. But when one of the "dead" washes up in California, alive, with no memory of what happened the cracks in their perfect lie begin to show. Now, the four survivors must come together and rewrite the past before the truth destroys them. Because in a town built on money, power, and privilege, even murder can be bought and buried... but not forever.

The Witch of Avery by mrs_kaeli

When her great-aunt Georgia dies unexpectedly, Katie Rogers leaves her dead-end life in Tennessee to inherit the family curios shop in the small town of Avery, Vermont where she learned magic in the summers of her youth. Now, Katie can barely cast a decent hangover spell, and with so little power remaining in her gem necklace, she's running out of options. While her money-hungry mother and sister pressure her to seek help from an old flame, Katie struggles to keep the business afloat by herself while fending off help from the perky, intrusive mayor. But when a decades-old illness makes a stunning return to town, people cast their suspicions on the new witch, especially the annoyingly handsome Sheriff Holte. At least Katie has Allister to distract her-a smooth-talking salesman with a penchant for making deals and showing up at just the right time. As Katie's bad reputation grows, so do the mysterious circumstances surrounding Georgia's death. With the help of her friends, and her furry familiar Reggie, Katie uncovers the secrets of Avery, and a strength within herself that goes much deeper than the botched love spell that got her into this mess.
