He prays like a saint.
But loves like a warning sign.
Isen Thayer Vail is the definition of devotion, stoic, spiritual, and always seen with a worn Bible in hand. To everyone else, he's the perfect man of faith: disciplined, mysterious, and morally unshakable. But under his calm surface lies an obsession, control, and quiet darkness.
When Amari crosses paths with him at a local faith group, she's drawn to his intensity and conviction. But the deeper she falls, the more she starts to question:
Is Isen her blessing, or the most beautiful red flag she's ever seen?

The Man's Devotion
A Man's Devotion by Awais Ahmed Khan In A Man's Devotion, love isn't just an emotion-it's a promise, a journey, and sometimes, an overwhelming force that changes everything. This novel tells the story of Ethan, a man who discovers the depth of his heart when he meets Sophia, a woman whose quiet strength and beauty draw him in like nothing else ever has. What starts as a connection built on mutual respect and admiration soon becomes something far more powerful-a love that will test both of them in ways they never imagined. Ethan's devotion to Sophia isn't about grand gestures or words he can't live up to; it's about the small, everyday choices he makes to stand by her, even when life isn't easy. When tragedy strikes and the world they've built together begins to crumble, Ethan is forced to reckon with the kind of love that asks for everything-his patience, his strength, his very soul. As he faces obstacles beyond his control, A Man's Devotion explores what it truly means to love someone-not just in the good times, but in the moments that threaten to break you. It's a story about sacrifice, resilience, and the quiet, often unseen ways love shapes us. Through Ethan and Sophia's journey, the book speaks to anyone who's ever given all of themselves to someone they love-and anyone who believes that true devotion isn't always about making the world see your love, but about staying steady through the hardest parts of life. With its honest, raw portrayal of love's transformative power, A Man's Devotion is a tribute to the kind of love that endures, even when the world seems like it's falling apart.Concluída

[[COMPLETED]] Go where your feet takes you Find what your heart looks for. No one is by your side. So the moon shall be your guide. ~•~•~ The moon was the only comfort she found, the only reassurance she could allow. The moon had shown her its soothing soft light, the only one who've seen her story. The only one who've heard of her silent cries. Elise Aubrie Winslow is a twelve year old girl. And the moon was the only thing she could rely on, the only thing she found as soothing despite the troubles she had. Nobody wanted to listen to her and so she closed her mouth for good. Nobody spared her a glance and so she was like a phantom wearing a mask to hide her screams and her quiet sorrowful wails. Nobody cared and so she learned on how to walk on her own, trying not to trip on her own two feet. Nobody understood her the way the moon did. But then she found them. And she felt like she was finally home. Like she finally knows where she truly belongs. And they stayed. They became her comfort. They became important. They became her home. Her family. Her moon. ____ Selenophilia (n) Loving the moon and finding it soothingly captivating.Concluída

I say, getting up off the chair and walking around him on my way out, my scarf running through his fingers lightly until it slips out.

He says more seriously. ******* Once bitten, twice shy Such is the case for Aaron Bishop, who after a failed marriage, decides that love and all things related, is not worth the trouble.

Blood And Vows | Nystrom series 3
[Book #3 in the Nystrom series] [TW: mature content, heavy topics, language] "Are we really doing this?" I press myself against him, my voice hoarse. It's not the fact I don't want this, because I do. I voice my thoughts out loud. "Once we do this, we can't go back." His lips meet my neck, pressing small kisses against my skin. "I'm not worried about that. You have made a slave of me for the past 22 years that I've been alive. No matter what you might think, you're mine. You've always been mine." His hand wraps around my chin. "I want your eyes on me." A flicker of approval flickers across his gaze when he sees me obeying. "Now move, sweetheart." 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀 𝐋𝐔𝐃𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐎, the innocent angel. Or so they thought. Dressed in black with eyes that could kill - she was the epitome of poison wrapped in silk. Someone you'd want to worship, not knowing whether you were worshipping a goddess or someone far worse than the devil himself. And right there, in the middle of her chaos, there was him. Her anchor. 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎 T̶H̶O̶R̶N̶B̶R̶I̶D̶G̶E̶ 𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐄, the abomination that shouldn't have been born. With the majority of the underworld wanting him dead, you'd think he had bigger issues than worrying about a certain raven haired girl. Unfortunately, there's only one thing his twisted mind is set on. Her. Even though his father ruined her family's life, even if he's not good enough for her. He'll have her no matter what, and he'll make anyone suffer who gets in his way. A complicated friendship, nothing more - but hearts are liars, and so were they. 𓆩♡𓆪 Started: August 2024 Finished: TBA
Crossroad between the choppy waves and serene fields
