A group of strangers from the 21st century wake up naked on the shores of an alien world-a place where the sky burns purple at night and survival demands more than modern knowledge.

Rich girl. Outcast. Heir to hell. Kala Dean's carefully crafted life shatters when two strangers drag her back into a world she was never supposed to remember. Now she's on the run-haunted by flashes of past lives, hunted by enemies older than time, and forced to trust a woman who makes her heart ache and a man whose every touch sparks fire in her blood. To survive, Kala must claim the truth of what she is: a vampire-succubus shifter hybrid destined to protect the underworld from collapse.

When fate ruins, love rises. Two storms on a collision course. One seeks vengeance, the other redemption. Trapped in a world of power, betrayal, and blood-soaked lies, they both play dangerous games with deadly stakes. One protects their legacy, the other destroys and build their own legacy. One fights to protect their empire, unaware the person they cannot forget, is the one sharpening the blade aimed at their heart. They're not just playing the enemy-they're rewriting the rules, determined to destroy every ounce of their power. But in a world where nothing is what it seems, fate doesn't just ruins-it annihilates. When the dust settles, will their love rise from the ashes, or will they be consumed by the storm they've unleashed?

Nightfire | The Whispering Wall #1 by giveitameaning

Fear the dark. Bar the doors. Don't breathe a word. Wait for the Hooded Men to save you. The people of Nictaven live in fear of the night; governed by magic no one save a few can control, in a land plagued by demons and cannibal tribes, and isolated from all other worlds for centuries, they're right to. Only the Unspoken, a secretive guild of warriors linked with the land and its magic, provide any safety when darkness falls. For centuries, it has stayed like this. But in an abandoned crypt worlds away, Jordan Haverford is about to change that. It wasn't quite the holiday he had been hoping for. Plunged into a world where who you are and what you believe can kill you, a world of demons and knives in the dark and wars fought from behind the doors of the rich, Jordan's gentle Oxford upbringing isn't quite sufficient preparation. Instantly a pawn in a deadly game, separated from his sister and watched from the shadows by an assassin with a vendetta, he finds himself in the company of an Unspoken who has an uncanny knack for finding the Gifted - and Jordan can't seem to get rid of him.
