Banished for powers she can't control and secrets she doesn't understand, sixteen-year-old Nicoleta Mandragon is left at the gates of Lumea Secretă, a hidden school where magic pulses in the very stones and trust is the rarest currency of all. Alone in a world of ancient rivalries and blooming cherry trees, Nicoleta must navigate new friendships, old enemies, and the haunting legacy of her family's forbidden gifts. As a dangerous outsider threatens to tear the school apart, Nicoleta must decide who she can trust-and whether she'll use her soul-bound magic to save the only home she's ever longed for, or risk losing it forever. Lyrical, heartfelt, and brimming with enchantment, this is a story of belonging, betrayal, and the unbreakable courage it takes to choose love over fear.

*Wattys Winner 2022* Charles Abbot is finally living the life he has always dreamed of. At only 25, he has managed to turn his unique magical ability of copying memories into a profitable business. However, his comfortable life is shattered when he is tricked by a thief into extracting a dangerous memory. Not only does it reveal that there's a cult murdering children in their city, but by possessing this memory, Charles' life--and the lives of everyone close to him--are now in danger. Recruiting the help of a gay potion-maker and a ten-year-old lightning-wielding prodigy, Charles must now find that thief and try to put an end to this cult's workings. But it won't be easy.

The Things We Hide At Hogwarts

40 parts Complete Mature

Sixteen-year-old Lily Luna Potter has spent her life in the shadow of her family's legacy - daughter of the Boy Who Lived, youngest of the Potters, and the girl who doesn't need a wand to cast a spell. But some kinds of magic aren't meant to be seen. When strange surges of uncontrolled power begin to haunt her sixth year at Hogwarts, Lily is forced to confront the one person she swore she'd never speak to again - Scorpius Malfoy, the boy who once held her heart and shattered it with a single lie. He's cold now, sharper, untouchable - but secrets have a way of binding people tighter than promises. As old tensions between their families reignite and whispers of forbidden magic spread through the castle, Lily must decide what's more dangerous: the darkness growing inside her... or the boy she can't seem to stay away from. Because at Hogwarts, the past never really stays buried - and love might just be the most dangerous spell of all.
