Noah Kaine spent a lifetime kneeling-to bullies, to injustice, to a world that spat on his scars. His only armor? A kindness that refused to die.
Susan Bennett was the wildfire no one expected-the society princess who tore his masks away with bare hands and whispered: "Let them stare. I dare you to be loved."
But when tragedy strikes, Noah makes one final choice: to vanish into legend, leaving behind only orphaned laughter, unpublished novels... and a woman who will force the world to say his name.

HER SHATTERED LIFE
⋅⋅•⋅⊰⋅•⋅⋅∙∘☽༓☾∘∙•⋅⋅⊰⋅•⋅⋅• She believed she was born to be broken. He had spent years searching for someone he had lost before he was old enough to understand what losing meant. And somewhere between them stood a man who had built an empire in the shadows, carrying his own darkness while becoming the light in hers. Isha Kapoor had spent years running from a life that had only ever taught her pain. She believed she knew who she was, where she came from, and why she had been left with nothing but scars. She was wrong. Avi Rajvansh had power, wealth, and a world that feared his name. But when Isha enters his life, the man who never lets anyone close finds himself willing to destroy everything to protect the girl who believes she is impossible to love. And then there is Dev Malhotra. For years, he has been searching for his missing little sister, the only family he has left. Fragments of a past that refuse to stay buried. Until his search leads him to a girl who has no idea that she may be the person he has been looking for all along. As buried secrets rise, old enemies return, and the truth begins to unravel, three shattered lives find themselves connected by a past none of them remember the same way. One girl who never knew where she belonged. One brother who never stopped looking for home. And one man who would turn the world upside down to keep her safe. She thinks she is the darkness. He sees her as the light of his life. But some truths don't just change the future. They rewrite everything you thought you knew about the past. ⋅⋅•⋅⊰⋅•⋅⋅∙∘☽༓☾∘∙•⋅⋅⊰⋅•⋅⋅• Tropes & Themes :--> ╰┈➤ Mafia & business rivalries ╰┈➤ Found family / Hidden Identity ╰┈➤ Long-lost sibling mystery ╰┈➤ Trauma, healing & love ╰┈➤ Slow-burn romance ╰┈➤ Dark secrets & hidden past ╰┈➤ Touch her and die ╰┈➤ Suspense

Enigma
In a world where humans coexist with other races, known yet unknown to them, the throes of fate force a young human woman to leave the familiarity of her world and thrust her right into the arms of a scarred alpha. Lillian, a single mother of five-year-old twin boys, was welcomed home one night by the horrors of death and blood. Forced to flee with her children, she ends up on pack land. Her new life in the pack will unravel secrets that will lead her to question everything she knows about herself. Noah is the alpha of his pack. A series of kidnapping disturb the peace of the neighboring territories. In the middle of attempting to solve the issue, a human female drops into his land. Everything about Lillian is a paradox, and Noah doesn't know how to deal with a human who doesn't accept his authority, and who gives life to conflicting emotions in his scarred heart. excerpt: He should kill her. It was only one life, a reasonable price to pay in order to protect their secrets. "You'll die," he repeated, looking down at the fire in her eyes. She took a deep breath, the smell of fear disappearing again. "Take care of my boys." she smiled at him and closed her eyes. Noah's hands lifted. One move. Quick and painless. Simple. Humans were so easy to kill. Her slender neck would break without a real effort on his part. The wolf raged again, Noah's muscles turned rigid, fighting the beast for control. It had never happened before. Noah's hand touched her neck. Her skin was freezing. A lone tear slid out of Lillian's eye. She bit her trembling lip and Noah followed the action. Her body was trembling, from cold or fear, he didn't know. *This book is part of the Blue Flames world. However, it can be read as a standalone.Complete

Scarred
COMPLETED • • • She was so brave. He couldn't understand how she didn't hate him. He did this to her, he was the reason of her scar. Had she not meet him that night, her life would've gone on as per normal. She wouldn't have to hide in shame, she wouldn't have to cry to sleep. She shouldn't have gone through any of it. She barely knew him! -- "I don't need your pity." She said, turning her face away. He didn't see it, but he knew she must be tearing. Fuck, did it ache to watch her cry for the umpteenth time. He couldn't take it anymore. He cupped her face with both his hands, forcing her to look at him; to see the truth evident in his eyes.

The Princess And The Criminal
Noah Reed is a princess. Her parents made sure of that. From piano lessons, to dance lessons, to etiquette lessons, to modelling lessons. It didn't matter that she was the fifty-second in line to the Prigairy throne. She had to be prepared. All fifty-one of those before her could drop dead at any second, apparently. She would do it though, all the lessons and all the pageants. She never lost a single one( If we do not count Miss dance star-she could never dance to save her life. But we don't talk about Miss Dance star) The one thing Noah did that was not expected, was fall in love with Sawyer Brun. A love that ended before it had begun. Sawyer Brun loved Noah Reed. The way oranges are orange(Ignoring the fact that some oranges are green, some yellow), but love between a princess and a vagabond was never meant to be. And when Sawyer took the fall for her brother's crime to prevent him facing his third strike, the two realised just how doomed their romance was. But Sawyer's out now, and Noah is too old to participate in any more pageants. Second chances are fragile.Complete
