In a city where shadows breathe and roots whisper, a reluctant fae and a cursed tracker must confront ancient magic-or be consumed by it.

Riley Sinclair prefers solving mundane mysteries, like insurance fraud and cheating spouses, in San Francisco's shadowed streets. But when a terrifying attack awakens dormant powers tied to her hidden fae bloodline, Riley is thrust into a dangerous world she doesn't understand. Her connection to the Verdant Heart-an ancient artifact capable of shifting the balance between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts-makes her both a target and a key to their survival.

Reluctantly, Riley teams up with Gabriel Thorne, her brooding half-vampire ex-partner, and Kenji Kagami, a rogue werewolf heir turned street magician with secrets of his own. Together, they must navigate a city teeming with supernatural dangers, including Ludmilla Everstar, the ruthless Unseelie Queen, and her deadly enforcer, the Shadowman.

As Riley struggles with her newfound powers and the side effects of a desperate act to save her life, she must decide how far she's willing to go to protect the people she loves-and herself. But with every step, the line between light and dark blurs, and the cost of the truth may be her humanity itself.

Ethan Scott, a ruthless and calculating mafia king, commands respect and fear across the criminal underworld. Jess Hwang, a fiery and cunning mafia queen, rules her own empire with an iron will and a sharp mind. Both have spent years at odds, their rivalry fueled by territorial disputes, betrayals, and a mutual thirst for dominance. When a common enemy threatens their empires, they strike an uneasy deal: a business alliance to protect their territories, but with a twist-they agree to satisfy their carnal desires through an arrangement of being "friends with benefits." Neither intends for the arrangement to evolve into anything more than lust and convenience. Their nights together are raw and intense, marked by passion and a constant power struggle. But as the lines between pleasure and vulnerability blur, they begin to uncover pieces of each other that no one else has ever seen. Ethan's cold exterior hides a man scarred by betrayal, while Jess's fierce independence masks a past of heartbreak and pain. However, love in their world is dangerous. Old grudges and secrets resurface, threatening to rip apart the fragile trust they've built.

Amid schemes, bloodshed, and betrayal, Ethan and Jess are forced to confront their feelings. Can they overcome the weight of their past and trust each other, or will their love story end in tragedy, consumed by the very darkness that brought them together?

In a world where magic is woven into the fabric of nature, Lila Faelan has always felt a deep connection to the flowers that bloom around her. With her pastel pink hair and luminous green eyes, she is quiet and reserved, hiding a profound loneliness. Ever since she can remember, her dreams have been haunted by whispers-murmurs of a forgotten past and a voice that calls to her from beyond the realm of memory. Lila's life takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Aiden Thorne, a brooding young man with a troubled past of his own. Aiden is bound by the rigid expectations of his family, who hold immense power in their world. His stormy blue eyes reflect the weight of responsibility he has never asked for, and he feels trapped in a life that isn't truly his. Their fateful meeting in the midst of a mystical garden sets off a chain of events neither of them could have foreseen. As their bond deepens, Lila begins to uncover fragments of her lost past-memories tied to an ancient curse that has shadowed her family for generations. Aiden, too, begins to question the truths he has been told, discovering that his family's legacy is entwined with Lila's in ways more dangerous than either of them could have imagined. Together, they embark on a journey through enchanted forests and forgotten ruins, searching for the key to breaking the curse. Along the way, they are joined by their loyal friends-Elara, Lila's sharp-tongued yet fiercely protective best friend, and Rowan, Aiden's carefree companion who hides his own secret feelings for Elara. As Lila and Aiden draw closer to the heart of the mystery, they must confront not only the curse but also their own fears, desires, and the question of whether their connection was fated-or if they have the power to rewrite their destinies. The deeper they go, the more they realize that breaking the curse may come at an unthinkable cost: the sacrifice of one to save the other.
