The opposing forces of the universe, creation and destruction, have always lived in harmony with each other, keeping the cosmic balance stable in the name of order. However, this balance has failed, and now only one thing can save reality from its annihilation: Life.
One of its avatars, Gaia, along with Zantas, the God of Creation, will have to travel through worlds all different from each other, where dangers abound and good and evil aren't always what matters, in order to find the solution to the cosmic problem: Gaia's sister.
The space is dark and full of mysteries... but how strong can be a motivation imposed by the destiny?

Guardian: The Great Beginning
Lunaria is a perfect world of peace and balance, located in a different time and universe than the Earth we humans live on. It is ruled by divine creatures called Spirits, who are in charge of all the energy that flows through the planet and its inhabitants. When the youngest Spirit, Asura, in a desperate attempt to follow along with his older siblings, whom he feels left out and mistreated by, accidentally meddles with the Darkness that lurks within Lunaria, things go desperately wrong. It is up to his eldest sister, Akilah, to find a way to save both her little brother and the world from the Darkness and prevent it from consuming the entire world. The question is, however, whether or not Asura even wishes to be saved anymore. A battle between light and dark commences, with Lunaria's fate in the balance. The final novel in the Guardian Trilogy takes you to the very beginning - long before the Guardians were called to Lunaria. Experience the story of Asura, the youngest of the six Spirits of Light, who'd eventually turn into the villain known as the Master of Nightmares.

Everything she touched turned to gold-until one tragic moment shattered it all. The accident left her in a wheelchair. In its wake came stares, pitying glances, and a haunting question: What good is a girl with dreams, if she can't even stand? She withdrew from everything that once defined her. Frustrated. Bitter. Humiliated. Her pride dragged through the mud, her spark snuffed out by pain and silence. Until one afternoon at the mall. Dragged out by a friend for the first time since the accident, Sereia finds herself suddenly wheeled to a table-his table. Theodore Prescott. Her academic rival, her constant annoyance, the boy she'd sworn to despise. And yet, he doesn't flinch. Doesn't hesitate. Doesn't treat her any differently. And that's where it begins About the girl who couldn't walk, but who learned to stand tall again-even while seated. And the boy who, against all odds, saw her before she could even look in the mirror. This is a story not about sudden miracles, but slow rebuilding. About pain, rage, and fragile hope. Of breaking down, healing slowly, and finding strength-and love-in the most unexpected of places.

The Foreigner & The Pessimist (malexmale)
***Book 1 of the Soulmates Series*** In the middle of an intergalactic war for freedom and rights, there exists a distant technologically militant planet called Gav'yx, where next to becoming a soldier, finding your soulmate is everything. So much, that the first thing all Gav'yxians see upon their birth, is the image of their future soulmate on the exact day and in the exact place they're destined to meet them. However, on a futuristic earth - now called Uniterra - the idea of finding one's soulmate is a belief held by very few. Especially when it comes to seventeen-year-old Lane Nishimura, a pessimistic student in the extremely competitive space training program at Unity High, struggling with keeping the secrets of his very mysterious and dark past, his mental health, self-esteem, and slew of trust issues caused by years of failed friendships, bullying, and sub-par romances that's left him all but giving up on the idea of there ever being someone out there destined for him. And then along comes Zuuro; a lovestruck alien from the planet Gav'yx, who's long dreamed of the day he'd finally meet Lane, and of getting what would surely be his happily ever after. However, as he soon discovers, finding romance with Lane is not as easy as he assumed. Because not only does Lane not know he and Zuuro are destined to be together, but due to almost losing everything in his last breakup, and to what he's sure is just another trick being played on him by his half-brother, Darin, he's extremely reluctant to open himself up and risk getting close to anyone again. Will Lane allow love to prevail, or will his mistrust and the secrets of his past doom them before it's even had a chance? Find out, in The Foreigner & The Pessimist, the first installment in the all new Soulmates series.Complete

"𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨𝐲." ~ Marriage was never for love-it was for legacy. A strategy. A performance. And for the Lombardis and the Morettis, it was the most calculated, showstopping alliance of the century. Roman Moretti, Don of the La Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, had been betrothed since her birth --matched to unite two empires under one crown. Hidden from the world, Angeline was raised to be the perfect wife. Groomed. Silenced. Controlled. She learned early that one misstep would strip her of everything-including her name. Everyone's first mistake? They underestimated her. Though no one had ever seen her, the world assumed the Lombardi Princess was a polished doll. Quiet. Disposable. Roman saw the marriage as a formality-another calculated step toward total dominance. He had no plans to love her. No plans to live with her. Just a wife on paper, tucked away from him elsewhere, summoned when needed for appearances. But everything changed the moment he saw her walking down the aisle. She was perfection. Untouchable. She would be his ruin, his weakness, his obsession, his motivation. His everything. But what if that had been her plan all along? Not everything buried stays dead. Not every identity is what it seems. In a world where saints become monsters and monsters are worshipped like gods, Angeline must decide what's worth saving: her bloodline, her love, or herself. ~ -HEA -18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller -No Cheating/OWD -DARK ROMANCE "OMYGOSH. This book was immaculate. I could NOT put it down at all.

Once an angel, now a devil in disguise, forged by the cruelty of a father's grip. She is feisty, with a soul that still shines, torn between a deep, burning hunger for touch and an overwhelming hatred for it, as if every brush of skin is a betrayal. Her mission is simple-freedom and vengeance for the mother stolen by the hands of betrayal. She thought her escape would come from a prince charming, just like in the books she read-until she realized there was no hero, and she'd have to save herself. But that was before her father sold her to the most ruthless, feared man in the Italian mafia. 𝗔𝗗𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗡 𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗢(32) A broken soul, born into a shattered family. Hatred and anger have consumed him since childhood. He knew no love, only vengeance. Now, he stands as the most ruthless and feared man in the Italian mafia-so feared that even the devils whisper his name in the dark. But his war isn't over. He's still hunting the one who stole his childhood, the one who ripped his mother's love away from him. And when he finds them, there will be no mercy. Then, everything changes. A woman-mysterious, unseen, and dangerously untouchable-shatters his ego. She controls his rival mafia, yet remains unseen by the world. Now, he wants her, not just in his sight, but by his side. But first, there's another piece to move on his chessboard. He needs the daughter of the man he despises most. The man he believes stole everything from him. Russo's world will burn, and with it, Iris-the girl he thinks is Russo
