Evander "Nox" Carver is a mercenary who thrives in the shadows, a master of espionage, sabotage, and survival. He works for the highest bidder-no questions, no loyalties, no loose ends. But when a routine mission goes sideways, Nox finds himself caught in a deadly game orchestrated by someone who knows his darkest secrets.

Vivianne Vaughn is a cybersecurity expert working for one of the most secretive government agencies in the world. Her job is to eliminate digital threats before they become national catastrophes. But when one of her investigations points to Nox, she's tasked with bringing him down-a dangerous mission that puts her face-to-face with the elusive mercenary.

What begins as a pursuit of justice becomes a reluctant partnership when both Nox and Vivianne discover they've been manipulated by a shared enemy: a shadowy figure from Nox's past who's pulling strings on a global scale. Forced to work together, they must navigate a maze of betrayals, cyber warfare, and conspiracies that blur the line between right and wrong.

As danger closes in, Vivianne struggles to reconcile her growing feelings for the man she's sworn to stop, while Nox grapples with a chance at redemption he never thought he deserved. In a world where loyalty is a risk and trust is a weapon, they'll have to decide whether they can save each other-or destroy everything in the process.

Fast-paced and filled with suspense, The Nox Code is a thrilling enemies-to-lovers story of betrayal, redemption, and the fight to uncover the truth in a world built on lies.

They say the gods are dead. In New Haven, one just woke up in a girl who never asked to be chosen. Beneath the acid-slick skies of a drowned canyon city, where advan-core tech pulses through rusted ruins and the air itself could kill you, a band of teenage misfits does what no one else dares: steal from High Haven. WILLOW, rebel leader and five minutes older than her chaos - wired twin, CANYON, is only supposed to hijack a mystery shipment. Simple job. In, out, vanish. But inside the armored airvan isn't tech or credit chips - it's a god's heart. A living godpiece. And it chooses her. Now her veins burn black, her mind fractures with divine whispers, and something ancient is using her body as a conduit. The power could save New Haven - or destroy it. It's also killing her. Enter NOA - a silver-tongued smuggler with a hidden past, war scars, and too many knives. She's from High Haven, and her loyalty flickers like a glitch. She says she wants to help the Scarves. Canyon doesn't trust her. But Willow? She can't stop looking at her. As revolutions ignite and monsters stir beneath the city, New Haven teeters on the edge of collapse. The godpiece is changing everything. And something older than memory is waking up in the deep. Would you betray your blood to save the woman you love? Would you burn a city to save the world? Grab your scarf. The canyon's calling. Are you ready to answer? - This story contains mature themes, graphic violence, and strong language. Recommended for older teen readers (16+) and above -

Brenorra Warring's father is going crazy. That's the only conclusion Bren can make when a fire destroys everything they own, and his answer is to take a job in the uncivilized Coalition Colonial Region on the other side of the ocean. Then disaster strikes again. Her father is lost at sea, and Bren is left with nothing but the clothes on her back, the things in her father's satchel, and the discovery that he has been lying about his reasons for leaving. When more of her father's secrets come to light, it becomes clear that someone powerful is killing innocent people to keep those secrets hidden - and they are hunting for Bren. As the only person alive who can figure out what her father knew, Bren winds up forming an alliance with two very different men. The first has been tasked with keeping her safe, and will do anything it takes to bring down the organization stalking her, no matter the cost. The other is a brilliant but icy Naval hero who has been branded a wanted man by the enemy. With time running out and danger rising, Bren must solve the trail of coded messages her father left for her and find the last piece of the puzzle before it falls into the wrong hands. The only rule of this game: do not get caught.

From server rooms to safe houses, from encrypted files to explosive confrontations, "The Blackout Protocol" is a heart-pounding thriller that asks: In a connected world, who controls the switch that turns out the lights? Some codes are meant to be broken. Others will break you first. Enter at your own risk. The blackout is coming.
