The Memory Market by AndresWiest

In a world where memories have become commodities-bought, sold, stolen, and traded like currency-a teenage girl named Ember discovers to her horror that her past is being systematically altered every night during her dreams. Each morning, she wakes with a growing sense of disorientation and loss, unable to distinguish truth from fabrication. When Ember finds a chillingly cryptic note in her own handwriting-"You sold your memories to save someone. Find out who before you forget everything"-she realizes time is running out. Ember must plunge deep into the shadowy and dangerous Memory Market, confronting ruthless traders and hidden manipulators, to reclaim fragments of her stolen past. In doing so, she will uncover startling revelations about family loyalty, test the limits of friendship, and grapple with the unsettling realization that the true cost of remembrance might be more than she ever imagined.

Burning Ember by CemiJade0607

Ember Harding, having recently fled an abusive marriage in L.A., seeks refuge in the remote reaches of Maine. Haunted by the fear of her ex-husband Gabriel discovering her whereabouts, she encounters Hale, the man who delivers her groceries. Yet, Hale harbors secrets of his own. Amidst the unraveling of his mysterious past, the menace of a masked intruder, and a dark secret hidden within her new home, Ember is forced to confront her fears and heal from her trauma. The question remains: Will Hale be her savior from the nightmares that chase her, or will he ignite the flames of destruction? Certain scenes depicted involve domestic abuse and manipulation. This book was written fictitiously but has been carefully laced with personal experiences to better craft the story and shed light on mental health conditions. ***This is a first draft, so more than likely, I will be updating some of the chapters as I go through and edit.

Ashes of Desire by RiaAkova

"Alina's life was nothing but misery-a string of heartbreaks, betrayals, and endless pain. Desperate for a way out, she made a deal with the Devil himself, never expecting to become the obsession of Hell's most dangerous ruler. As she's drawn deeper into his world, Alina learns that bargains with demons always come at a cost, and sometimes the greatest danger isn't losing your soul-it's losing your heart. A „tale" of forbidden romance, sharp humor, and unbreakable resolve-where even in the depths of Hell, hope burns brightest."

Bleeder [Blood Magic, Book 1] by deathofcool

What if everything you knew about yourself was a lie? Mildred "Mills" Millhatten had a good life: close-knit family, fantastic friends, decent grades and even a not-totally-annoying kid brother. You might say it was the best kind of ordinary. So nothing could have prepared her for being taken and cast into a strange, vicious world that she didn't know existed and has little hope of understanding. As a Bleeder - one whose lifeblood feeds the Nosferatu - her continued survival hangs ever in the balance. The creatures are keeping her alive because they believe her blood has mystical properties. Mills fears what will happen when they realize they are wrong. If she hopes to survive and discover who she truly is, she needs an ally. She needs to befriend the mysterious boy who's been secretly visiting her cell, even though he's destined to become a bloodthirsty monster. Because she lives in their world now, and if she doesn't do something fast, she's going to die in it too.

Bounded by Emily1208

*New Chapter Weekly* Beneath the jagged spires of the Ashen Peaks, where the bones of fallen gods are said to rest, lies Hearth's End-a village frozen in fear, its streets lined with whispered prayers that go unanswered. Ember is a ghost in her own life, walking among the villagers who cross themselves in her shadow, clutching iron charms to ward off the hum that pulses in her veins-a primordial force that bends light into blades and shatters the world with a single touch. When she saves a drowning child by turning the frozen millpond into molten glass, the fragile peace of the village crumbles. Cast out, Ember is sent to Obsidian Academy, a fortress carved into the mountainside, where she is told she will learn to control her power. But Obsidian is no sanctuary. Its labyrinthine halls are a forge, molding students into weapons for a war whispered in shadows. Here, fire-wielders and shadow-binders train under cold, calculating instructors who measure their worth in blood. And Ember's ability-to both create and consume energy-marks her as both a coveted prize and a dangerous threat. But the mountains hide darker secrets than Ember ever imagined. Whispers swirl through Obsidian's halls of an ancient hunger stirring in the void, of hollow-eyed figures who once sought power and now wear their corruption like crowns, draining life to ash with a single touch. And they are coming. For the academy. For her.
