When Elara Quinn returns to her haunted hometown of Marrow Creek to bury her estranged mother, she inherits more than an empty house. A bell tower long-silent begins to toll at 3:33 a.m. - always three times, always when someone dies. Whispers bleed from the walls. Shadows move where light should touch. And somewhere beneath the church lies a secret too old to stay buried.
Bound by blood to a century-old curse, Elara must uncover the sins of her ancestors and face a vengeful force that offers her a choice: break the cycle through sacrifice, or become part of it.

The Cursed Princess
They locked her away the night she was born - the cursed princess of Valehart. Seventeen years hidden behind stone walls, blamed for a prophecy she never asked for. But when the moon bleeds again and the kingdom begins to fall apart, Elara learns the truth: the curse isn't meant to destroy the kingdom... it's meant to save it. Now everyone's after her - soldiers, shadows, and a prince who swore to end her life. But the deeper he gets, the more he realizes the real danger isn't her magic. It's the way she makes him feel.
The Hollowing
In the remote town of Greywater Hollow, silence is a living thing. A reclusive linguist named Anna Torres returns to her family's crumbling estate after her twin brother, Sam, vanishes beneath the attic floorboards. The town is steeped in hush-residents cut their sentences short, children scrawl half-formed chalk symbols no one can read, and the old Torres house murmurs in dialects no one remembers. As Anna unravels the hidden tongue woven into every creak and shadow, she discovers that silence itself may be a curse-and that Sam's disappearance was only the first echo it swallowed. Meanwhile, groundskeeper Tom Reed hears voices in the cemetery's stonework. His memories fracture, his dreams bleed into waking life, and every shovel-turned sod seems to whisper ancient words. Into their tangled quest step Rita, the grocer whose time-worn rituals hold back an unseen hunger, and Nina, a fearless child speaking truths through her chalked hooks and loops. The deeper they go, the more they realize that Greywater stands atop something primeval, something ravenous-and that to save each other, they must give voice to the quiet they fear most. Equal parts psychological suspense and lyrical horror, The Hollowing invites you into a world where words can bind or break you-and where the line between speech and silence can cost everything.Terminé
Bound In The Shadows
Hidden from the world since the moment she was born, Emberly Juliet Cullen - EJ - has lived her entire life in silence. She's never spoken a word, not because she can't, but because she's never had to. Her family understands her without sound, and her silence has always been her protection - the barrier between her and a world that would never understand what she is. Half human, half immortal, and completely unseen, EJ is the Cullen secret no one outside the family knows exists. Not even the Volturi. But secrets have a way of slipping through cracks. When a stranger's whisper reaches Volterra, Aro sends his guard to uncover the truth. Memories are stolen, lives are altered, and two ancient vampires - Marcus and Alec - are tasked with watching the girl hidden in the shadows. It's Marcus who feels it first - the unbreakable pull of a mate bond between Alec and the silent Cullen girl. But he says nothing. As the truth begins to surface, EJ finds herself drawn to the darkness she was born to fear. Alec sees her in a way no one else ever has - not through words, but through the silence that binds them. And when the Volturi's interest deepens, EJ must choose between the family that's kept her hidden... and the immortal who was never meant to find her. Love is a whisper in the dark. And some bonds are meant to stay bound in the shadows.Terminé
