Isa has always lived a small, soft life.
Books over people. Rain over noise.
She doesn't raise her voice. She doesn't take up space. And the darkest thing she's ever done... was lie about finishing her tea.

But then there's Knox.

A man who walks like he owns every shadow. Whispers like bullets. Eyes too sharp for someone like her.
She only bumped into him once.
Spilled her coffee. Apologized five times. Didn't know that one moment would change everything.

Now he's everywhere.
The quiet corner of her bookstore. The reflection in glass behind her.
He doesn't smile. He stares. And when he finally speaks, it's not kindness she hears. It's claiming.All Rights Reserved

AUGURY (A MAFIA ROMANCE) by Yimora_Alvy

Most men would've pulled the trigger. But him? He pulled me closer... ♤♤♤ The first time I met Jax Vinci, he held a gun to my head. I told him his future. He decided I was part of it. Now I'm trapped with a man who takes what he wants, keeps what he takes, and doesn't care if I burn in the process. He thinks my visions will make him untouchable. I think he already is. Someone help me. (Don't.) And somehow, my visions didn't warn me I'd crave the only man who could ruin me. (All characters and events in this story are purely fictional.

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.

Aurelia by Iamanextrovertnerd

She was supposed to break. Instead, she became the sharpest blade. She used to dream of soft hands and warm voices. Instead, she learned to mend broken ribs and silence her own screams. They called her a burden. She became a weapon. Now Aurelia walks through her memories barefoot - bleeding, stubborn, alive - refusing to let the past decide how her story ends. **Book 2 of the Hunt Series. (Standalone.)**

Assassin by leahweahh

She's the girl who survived hell. He's the man who was raised in it. Valentina Rossi doesn't exist. A killer with no past, no attachments, no weakness. Just the job. Until Vincenzo Cartier. Everything she shouldn't touch. Heartless. Merciless. A failed hit. A name with no face. And suddenly, nothing makes sense. The hunter becomes the hunted. He should kill her. He doesn't. He drags her into his life, a world where blood and power dictate the rules and desire... the deadliest weapon she'll ever know. In a world that devours the weak, Vincenzo controls the board... she's his queen. His pawn, his temptation, his weapon. And the price of losing? Everything.

The Beast by xwriteratheartxo

HANNAH I've spent my entire twenty-one years on this earth in the background. Walked over by friends. Family. Strangers. And I didn't see a problem with it; I'd rather nobody pay attention to me. It was safer that way. Easier. Until I got the wrong kind of attention. Lev Somov caught me running from an impromptu crime I was committing against my ex-boyfriend, and in that moment, he somehow decided I was worth giving his attention to. All the bad kinds of attention. Next thing I know, he's watching over me, hijacking my job and becoming my client. And then he takes things above a level I never thought possible. He is a monster, incapable of feeling any type of remorse or guilt for anyone and anything, including me. All I can hope for is that I make it out of this obsession alive. LEV This life wasn't meant for me, but now that he's gone, it's mine for the taking. And no one is going to stop me. I've shown my loyalty through blood, and I make no plans to change my future. Especially not for the little kukolka I found stumbling into the wrong alleyway. I'll take my time before I break her. And then, the Dynasty will be mine.

𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐙𝐀 𝐀𝐙Í𝐍𝐎 basked in the endless praise and affection of others, especially those she deemed beneath her status. In its whole glory, she would stand tall and embrace it as if a second skin, the compliments would chase after her for the mere approval that would fall from her lips hidden as mockery. Beneath her, there was 𝐀𝐀𝐑Ó𝐍 𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐒, an unassuming student amongst those who were desperate to climb up the social ladder either by themselves or in an easy way-through the woman. Not much was said about him, dismissed to the sidelines where he wasn't so used to back home. Seamlessly harmless. Or that's what she thought when the two were forcefully paired up for a project together. (CREDS TO MY LOVELY FRIEND BRI FOR HELPING ME W THE BOOK COVER !!)

"Touch me, Blaze... and you'll remember me every time something beautiful dies." -- She was the only sin he'd die to confess. So he destroyed his kingdom for her absolution. -- 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫. Power built their world. Power destroyed it. She pulled the trigger that turned his hate into a kingdom of fire, and now fate binds them to the same war. Hate keeps them sharp. Hate keeps them alive. But hate is just another mask for power. And when it cracks, they'll both discover the cost of letting go. -- In a city ruled by blood and silence, some names are spoken only in whispers. New York breathes violence like smoke-its kings crowned in crime, its peace bought in bodies. Blaze Marino, heir to a fractured Italian empire, doesn't believe in myths. He believes in control. In power. In pain as currency. But when a woman with white hair and a scar like prophecy crashes a masquerade of monsters, everything changes. She moves like fire. Vanishes like smoke. Leaves no name, no trail-just destruction and desire. And with her, the game changes. As alliances crack and old ghosts crawl from the shadows, Blaze finds himself caught between revenge and something far more dangerous: curiosity. Obsession. A pull he can't explain. They say saints die young. But what if she was never a saint at all? And if she was- maybe she always knew how her story would end.
