Simone Hartley is quiet, composed, and careful with the truth. She reads obsessively, trusts sparingly, and sees a therapist for reasons she won't name. But when a series of letters begin arriving, each one signed by someone who claims to be Simone, with her memories, her birthday, her scars, her reality begins to fracture.

As the boundaries between self and shadow blur, Simone must confront the possibility that she's not the only Simone. Or worse, that she's never been the first.

It's Cold Upstairs | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Who are you, really, when your own memories may not serve you? When the 'you' of just a year ago is a stranger to you today? When your own psyche blurs the lines between complex and insane? Two people, three minds, and an unresolved mystery converge between the pages of a decade-old notebook. What happens next proves that identity and self are ephemeral concepts, and that murder does not always leave a body. ❖❖❖ Content Warning: This book contains dark themes and depictions of psychological distress that may be disturbing to some readers. Proceed at your own discretion.

There she meets Saul Middleton, the last heir, charismatic yet tormented, carrying the shadows of his family and the mansion itself. As they unravel the house's dark history, Marion discovers it demands more than curiosity: it craves surrender, attention, and trust in ways that blur the line between love, obsession, and desire. Ghosts, occult rituals, and lingering memories stir around them, drawing the pair into an intimate, perilous connection neither expected. In Violet House, the past is alive, passion is perilous, and some bonds are meant to last forever.

ELEGANT RED ROUGE by ZephyrNethis

In a world where the past refuses to stay buried and the future lurks in the shadows, Simone - a teenager with a storm-tossed soul - is unwillingly drawn into the heart of a story that isn't hers... yet one that will change her forever. Her father was never truly there, and life with her mother has been nothing more than a string of unanswered silences. As high school nears its end, Simone finds herself swept into a whirlwind of unexpected events, where every choice leaves a wound, and every truth uncovered slices deeper into her sense of self. Forced to face challenges beyond her years and to unravel secrets guarded for decades, she discovers a hidden side of her mother - and a mysterious figure, Signore M., whose shadow seems to haunt the edges of her reality. With a broken heart but a will born of pain, Simone will test the limits of her body, her emotions, and her spirit. She will learn to live at the edge of the abyss, to lose her innocence, and to rise from the ashes of her own story. This is not merely a journey toward adulthood. It is a rebirth. A claiming of destiny. A one-way descent into a truth that wounds - but sets her free.

Wives' Murder Club by 1-800-Smackabitxh

The dates match. Everything added up. How could I not realize it? The bodies. The charges. The gossip. The rumours. The accuracy. The deaths. Every single body went missing. They were right, I should have listened. I knew something was weird, but not this bad. Church on Sundays, book club on Mondays, Bible study on Wednesdays, their kids' games on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Charity donations on Fridays, and dates on Saturdays. I guess its true what they say. The biggest monsters don't hide in the darkness of your closet. Instead, they smile in your face in broad daylight. The worst demons don't conceal themselves in your shadow. They thrive in the light. The darkest souls own the brightest smiles. A light so captive, you don't even realize they've gotten so close. Don't even realize when you've befriended them and their darkness has touched you. So, Sometimes, to find the ugliest monster, you have to look in the mirror. P.S, the tags should serve as a warning as well. This story is my own, which means I own the characters, plot, etc. However, I did get some inspiration from James Patterson's WOMEN'S MURDER CLUB, just with a slight twist ;)

Whispers Of Revenge by Snowinnie14

He didn't come looking for blood, But some roads don't end any other way. WARREN GREY was raised in silence, built on expectations, shaped by shadows. He learned early that loyalty doesn't protect you, and love never stays clean. There's a fire in him now, one he didn't ask for, one that was lit the moment his past stopped whispering and started screaming. She learned early that being quite was safer. AERIN GRACE watches more than she speaks, remembers what people forget. She paints to breathe, reads to escape and dreams of a world that never needed her to be strong. But when the past knocks, she doesn't run. She listens. They were never meant to collide, But some stories begin exactly where everything else ends.
