When a civil engineer student Elara Yves Harrington begins her final year at university, she's only focused on one thing: surviving. Plagued by vivid visions of events that haven't happened - and haunted by emotions she can't explain - she lives her days like blueprints: controlled, exact, and cold.
But everything shatters the day Dr. Sena Valerie Aldridge, a young and enigmatic structural dynamics professor, transfers into the engineering department. From the moment their eyes meet, Elara knows something is wrong. She's seen this woman before - in fractured memories, in dreams, in screams.
And always... in endings.
As they're drawn together by an illicit research project and an electric, unspoken attraction, Elara uncovers a buried truth: her life may not be real at all. She is the product of a failed experiment - an artificial consciousness caught in a loop of tragedy, love, and death... always revolving around Sena.
This time, the simulation is different. The feelings are deeper. The memories clearer. And Elara is starting to remember how each past loop ends - with one of them dead, and the other destroyed.
But what happens when a program learns to rewrite its own fate?
"Echo Circuit" is a gripping, slow-burn psychological GL thriller about love, memory, and identity - where the most dangerous variable in a system is the heart.

Unbound Relic
They chained her underground for a thousand years. Waking up was never part of the plan. She was the kingdom of Aethermoor's most dangerous secret-a girl with power so catastrophic that the Seven Throne Council chose eternal imprisonment over execution. Bound in unbreakable chains and sealed beneath cursed earth, her name was erased from history. For a thousand years, she slept in darkness. Then she woke up in a high school classroom. The chains are gone. Her magical world is gone. Instead, she finds herself trapped in the body of Ione Castellan, a seventeen-year-old loner who died four days ago. The face staring back at her in the mirror is foreign-soft ash-gray hair and gentle doe-like eyes in a striking jeweled lilac shade. This fragile body feels nothing like the warrior she once was. This world has no magic. But it has something worse: monsters that look human. Through Ione's fractured memories, she learns about Ashcroft-a city drowning in unsolved murders and serial killings. Bodies appear in alleyways carved with symbols she recognizes. Ancient symbols. From her world. Navigating high school is bewildering enough-what is "Wi-Fi"? Why do people stare at glowing rectangles all day?-but her old powers are awakening, causing lights to flicker and electronics to explode when her emotions spike. Worse, she's seeing things others can't: shadows that move with intent, and runes that shouldn't exist in this magic-less world. In a city of serial killers and ancient magic, the girl who should have stayed buried might be the only one who can stop what's coming.

The Wolf That Remembers
Book 1: Lysander Hale is a werewolf cursed with a rare and brutal gift-he remembers everything he does in wolf form. Every kill. Every scream. Every last memory of the lives he takes. Now, someone is murdering young women and imprinting their final memories inside his mind. The city fears a monster. And the evidence points directly at him. Trying to outrun the voices of the dead, Lysander isolates himself behind cold walls and colder eyes... until Elara Quinn moves into the apartment below him. She shouldn't affect him. But her presence quiets the memories. Her voice calms the wolf. Her gentle fire steadies the storm inside him. And most dangerous of all-his wolf recognizes her as his mate. Elara is kind, calm, and warm... but she is not what she seems. She carries scars she never speaks of. She looks at shadows like she knows them. And she flinches whenever a silver ring glints in the dark. Because Elara isn't just a girl with a soft smile. She's running-from Lysander's rival. From the real killer. From a werewolf who once claimed her as prey... and now wants her back. As more bodies fall and memories pile up, Lysander is forced into a race against time to clear his name and protect the only light in his darkness. But Riven, the wolf who haunts Elara's past, is drawing closer-with every moonrise, with every breath she takes. And the truth is far more twisted than either of them realize. Love will save them. Pain will bind them. Memory will damn them. And the moon will decide who survives.Complete
