When a stranger, drenched from head to toe, appears at Park and Key's doorstep, their world turns upside down. She's a puzzle wrapped in an enigma, with eyes that hold centuries of secrets and a presence that feels like a storm about to break.

Park and Key's encounter with Margo, the girl with the rain, catapults them into an adventure that stretches the boundaries of their understanding and tugs at the strings of their hearts. In a city hidden from the prying eyes of the outside world, where gardens flourish with engineered water and the market is the lifeblood of an experimental community, Margo's arrival challenges everything they thought they knew about their world.

"Here's To Something Beautiful" is not just a journey through time and water; it's a voyage into the depths of friendship, love, and the quest for a miracle. Join Park, Key, and Margo as they seek answers in a world where the impossible may just be possible, and where every drop of rain holds a story waiting to be told.

Dive into a tale of mystery, technology, and ancient lore, where the search for rain becomes a quest for survival and understanding. Can Park and Key uncover the truth behind Margo's mysterious origins before the secrets of Mercer consume them all?

In Saileora, power hums beneath the soil, ancient and untamed. Seeker Wrain, princess and heir to a throne that feels more like a cage, has always sensed it, both around and inside her. But the whispers of that hidden force - the stirring of magic, the heartbeat of the land - have never explicitly belonged to her. Until now. When an impossible void tears through the quiet countryside, leaving her kingdom's fields in ruins and the skies heavy with shadows, Seeker is thrust into a world of secrets she never asked to inherit. The dragons - the ancient gods of her people - are no longer the benevolent protectors of legend. One of them, Ascklees, has risen from his grave, burning with a hatred that could ignite all of Saileora. The land calls for heroes, but Seeker has never been one. Not the fierce warrior like her childhood friend Calix Clearbow, who walks in the light with unwavering bravery, nor the brilliant Dr. Rockbrow who seems to bend the world to her will. No, Seeker is something else entirely. A quiet storm, an unread book filled with power she does not yet understand. But there are others like her. Other Omnicircies - rare wielders of all the Subcirces, whose power has the potential to shape the fate of kingdoms. And they are waiting, hidden among the peaks of Vidya, the shores of Blissia and Brashar, and the deserts of Sadya. Only together can they confront the gathering storm, but first, they must be found. In The Dragon's Call, nothing is as it seems. Every smile hides a secret, every whisper holds a danger. Power calls to those who dare to listen, but power demands a price - one that not everyone will survive. Are you ready to heed the call?

Ranked #1 on Wattpad for "Cosmic Horror" and "Thought-provoking" Categories " When Rosie was younger, she'd always ask me why I spend so much time out in the garden. It wasn't until recently that I thought that she'd be able to understand, but now that she's gotten a bit older, she gets it. " Ariel then looks at Rosie and politely asks her a question. " Rosie, may I see the gift that Tom brought you? " " Sure mama! " Rosie says as she hands Ariel the golden rose and Ariel admires the beauty of the rose and the craftsmanship that it took to make it as detailed as it is. Ariel then speaks from the heart as she holds Rosie's gift in her hands. " The reason why I've cultivated Roses all my life is because of how much I love them and what they mean to me... I told Rosie that for someone to really love roses, their love and admiration for them would have to outweigh the fear of getting pricked by their thorns. To truly love a rose would be to accept the rose for everything that it is, thorns and all, and the people who can do that often share a similar outlook for the people that they love as well. They accept the people that they love for everything they are, regardless of whether those people have thorns... So in my eyes, a person who can truly love and admire roses is a person who understands what love really means.
