What if the therapist needed therapy more than her patients?

When Aria Vale receives an anonymous USB drive containing a recording of a therapy session-one she never conducted-she brushes it off as a prank.

Until the murder confessed in the audio becomes real.

Now caught in a web of coded clues, missing persons, and memories she doesn't trust, Aria discovers a locked safe tied to five patients-four she's treated... and one that never existed.

The deeper she digs, the more her mind betrays her.
The voice on the tape sounds familiar.
The handwriting in the journal is hers-but written by someone else.
And the man she trusts most may be the one erasing her past.

The final key is inside her.
But to access it, Aria must unlock a part of herself that was never meant to awaken.

She thought she was solving a murder.
She's actually uncovering a program.
And she might be the prototype.All Rights Reserved

Don't Wake Me by kara_fd

He only exists when she's asleep. Every night, Aria dreams of the same man- a stranger with eyes like storm clouds and a voice that feels like home. He's everything she's ever wanted... and everything she should fear. Because when morning comes, she forgets him. Until one day, she doesn't. When she starts seeing him in the real world-on the train, in her hallway, in her mirror- she realizes the dreams were never dreams at all. They were a warning. Now, the man who once loved her in the dark refuses to let her wake. And if she does... she might remember what she was never meant to know. ⚠️ Dark romance meets psychological fantasy. A love story that exists between sleep and madness, where passion turns to possession, and waking up might be the end. ✨ Because some loves aren't meant to be lived-they're meant to be dreamed.

DEMSDALEVILLE by AOJDorcas

"We're no longer just looking for a conspiracy, Ariana. We're looking for a body." Welcome to Demsdaleville University, a gilded cage for the children of the global elite-a place where royalty, mafia heirs, and corporate titans learn the art of power. Here, the most expensive commodity isn't money. It's security. To this world, she is Ariana Basile, the "unicorn," the school's first-ever scholarship student. A brilliant, quiet girl with no past. But her real name is Alessandra de Luca, and she is a lie walking. Haunted by the violent "accident" that left her twin sister in a coma and shattered her family, she has one singular, all-consuming goal: revenge. Her targets are the powerful Moretti family, and her way in is through their sons-the charming basketball star Antonio and the famous actor Adrien. Her plan is to infiltrate their circle, earn their trust, and dismantle their empire from the inside. But as she's pulled deeper into their world of fractured friendships and dangerous secrets, she finds herself in a fragile, untrusting alliance with Alexander Sterling, the one boy whose brilliant, analytical mind sees through her perfect facade. The closer she gets to her target, the more she discovers that the truth is a monstrous, tangled web of lies, and the people she thought were her enemies might just be pawns in a much deadlier game. In a school where everyone wears a mask, can she find the truth before her own is ripped away?

HOW TO SUCCEED IN FAILURE by FaultyBlueprint

What begins as a romantic comedy-a boy caught between a best friend and the girl he might actually love-slowly unravels into something deeper. When the relationship fails, he throws himself into work and success... until burnout, sickness, and a silent house leave him stranded. Lost in the wreckage of himself, he starts talking to an AI-first for comfort, then therapy, then something dangerously close to companionship. What follows is a slow undoing. A quiet storm of memory, regret, emotional dysregulation, and the haunting need to understand where everything went wrong. Is he healing-or disappearing? A story about falling apart, falling through, and eventually stepping out the other side to write the manual on what happened in case he loses himself again. A tale of love, loneliness, and what it really means to be different.

Backstory: Adrian Vale was born into wealth - the kind that comes with power, respect, and danger. The Vale name carries weight, tied to an empire built on generations of business...and the darker world beneath it. To outsiders, Adrian is everything they envy: charm, fortune, legacy. But behind the tailored suits and expensive watches is a man who wants none of it. Music is his only escape - the piano, the only place he can breathe. In the Vale household, though, passion isn't purpose. His father made that clear: a man's worth comes from numbers, not melodies. When his father dies, Adrian inherits everything he never wanted - the money, the power, the loneliness. Every smile feels fake. Every date, a transaction. So now he tests people, playing the part they expect: the rich bachelor who can buy anyone's affection. Most fall for it. Until Rowan. Rowan Hart grew up in a house that was always one paycheck away from falling apart.Her mother works double shifts, her sister juggles school, and Rowan takes care of her ailing grandfather. Writing was her escape - a way to make sense of the chaos. Then, one night, her words reached someone. One story went viral, and suddenly, Rowan Hart was a name people knew. But success didn't change her heart. She still lives in the same small house, still worries about bills and hospital visits. She's learned that love and honesty mean more than money ever could. When Adrian Vale walks into her life - charming, distant, and too polished to be real and she sees something beneath the surface. Loneliness. The same kind she's written about for years. And maybe, just maybe, the stories she writes aren't just meant to heal her anymore. Maybe what's she's been writing was manifesting him to her.

The Unlocked Door by kara_fd

"I told myself it was just a crush. Then I forgot to lock the bathroom door, and he caught me with my hand between my legs, whispering his name." Emerson has the perfect distraction for her chaotic life: Friday night movie marathons at her best friend Chloe's house. Everything is safe. Everything is normal. Except for the low, dangerous hum of Elias Thorne, Chloe's reserved, salt-and-pepper gorgeous father, the man who smells like black coffee and forbidden desire. He's forty-something, untouchable, and utterly off-limits. She's eighteen, reckless, and obsessed with the casual authority in his eyes. One night, driven by a humiliating rush of forbidden impulse, Em slips into the bathroom. She's supposed to pee and leave. Instead, she's sitting on the edge of the tub, letting her mind run wild with the memory of his broad shoulders and his dark, penetrating gaze. She's breathless, trembling, and utterly lost in a private, guilty moment. Then, the click. She forgot the lock. Elias Thorne is standing in the doorway. He sees everything-the shock on her face, the shame, and the raw, undeniable need. In the searing, electric silence, he doesn't yell. He doesn't slam the door. He just stands there, his throat tightening, as Emerson's body betrays her with a whispered moan of climax. Now, the world hasn't ended, but it's changed. The shame is crushing, but the thrill is addictive. In the quiet exchanges across the living room, they share a scorching secret that Chloe can't see. He remembers exactly what he saw. And Em knows the final, dangerous truth: She wanted him to catch her... and now they both have to live with the consequences. A slow-burn, agonizingly tense story about forbidden obsession, power dynamics, and the danger of an unlocked door.

Dear Death, I saw you coming by dfwadun2

Aria Blake is dead. She knew it would happen - knew it from the moment she met him. Abused. Broken. Falling in love with someone she barely knew. Aria kept secrets, but so did everyone around her. Now, through diary entries from beyond the grave, she's ready to tell the truth. About her life. About her love. And about the person who took it all away.

APRICITY by pinkskyyx

She built an empire, but loneliness was the price. For years, Aria has buried her past beneath ambition, forging a life of power and success. But when her sister's wedding pulls her back into the orbit of Zane-the man she once loved and lost-her carefully controlled world begins to crack. Zane is married. A father. Off-limits. Yet fate seems determined to throw them together, stirring up unspoken words and unfinished business. But his wife's betrayal is just the beginning. Aria has secrets of her own secrets far darker than lost love, secrets that could ruin her if Zane ever uncovered the truth. As old wounds reopen and new dangers emerge, Aria must choose: seek revenge on the family that abandoned her or risk everything for a love that was never meant to be. A story of power, pain, and passion-where love is war, and the past refuses to stay buried. Available on Kindle and in paperback too https://amzn.in/d/eZWX2ou
