Generations of power. A family built on secrets, legacy, and blood.

When nineteen-year-old Clara Reynolds falls for a wealthy stranger during a trip to New York, she believes she's found her future. Instead, she becomes the beginning of a curse.

Decades later, her daughter Meela Vanderbuilt lives in luxury, rained in a mansion of glass and silence under her father's control, her mother's disassociation, and her brother's envy. But beneath the marble floors and the family's perfect reputation, something dark moves through the bloodline.

As Meela grows older, she begins to see cracks in the illusion - the manipulation, the rituals, the fear disguised as legacy. Her longing to escape becomes the one act her father cannot forgive.

When betrayal finally burns through the family, Meela's rebellion will end in blood. She'll flee the life she was forced into, only to find herself haunted by the same curse, repeating the very patterns she swore to destroy.

Vanderbuilt Origins: The Fifth Generation is a psychological family saga that explores inheritance, control, and the inescapable pull of our origins. Sometimes, breaking free means becoming the very thing you ran from.All Rights Reserved

Savages and Purists: CHRONICLES OF THE DEMIZE CLOCK by JackieBendster

Some girls run from their demons. Frankie trains with hers. In a world where purity is weaponized and allegiance is everything, Frankie Oliveira returns to the one place she swore never to set foot in again-Fleur Panache. Branded a fallen purist with a broken demize clock and a past buried in flames, she must now survive brutal retraining, political land wars, and the spiritual elite's suspicions. But as the boundary between the living and the possessed begins to blur, so does the line between truth and manipulation. Allies are scarce. Her enemies know her better than she knows herself. And then there's Xanthe Linea Morais, part heir, part executioner, whose interest in her may be a game of power... or something far more dangerous. Haunted by her choices and hunted from both sides, Frankie faces an impossible question: Can the girl who was born to uphold the sacred survive becoming the symbol of its unraveling? One wrong move, and purity won't just be lost, it'll be redefined.

Awkward Blue by JackieBendster

💙 Awkward Blue 💙 "He's running from legacy. She's fighting for respect. Both are hunted by shadows." Kael Lance was born into privilege, power, and pressure. His grandfather owns a tech empire, his cousins are bred like heirs in a dynasty, and every move he makes is controlled.

Paranormal activities stalk them night and day, and one wrong move could mean disappearing forever. Siobhan Wildes only wants one thing: for the girls' soccer team to finally earn the respect they deserve.

And when day breaks, she too has learned the truth about Maynard's curse. At a school where legends walk, shadows hunt, and secrets bleed into every game, Kael and Siobhan are about to learn that survival takes more than talent, it takes loyalty, courage, and the right people by your side. For fans of dark academia, boarding school drama, forbidden romance, and paranormal twists. Awkward Blue is where legacy meets danger, and every heartbeat could be the last. Updates every Tuesday 💗

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier

Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.

Legacy Of The Damned by BreadWrld

Long ago, during the waning days of medieval Europe, a war was waged in the shadows. Vampires, led by Dracula, ruled the night with dominion and terror. They were opposed by secret orders of hunters and sorcerers who sought to end the vampire reign. After centuries of bloodshed, Dracula was finally defeated, not slain, but sealed away in a deep slumber by powerful wards. What few knew, however, was that Dracula left behind a bloodline. Unlike his monstrous kin, this line was different, his children could walk in the daylight and live among humans, their powers dormant until awakened by blood, trauma, or age. Most of these descendants faded into history, unaware of their cursed inheritance. Now, centuries later, the wards holding Dracula are weakening. Strange disappearances and whispers of creatures in the dark signal his slow return. Those sensitive to the supernatural feel the change first, though most of humanity remains blissfully ignorant. Among them is Victoria Constantine, a seemingly ordinary teen who has begun to experience strange dreams and heightened senses. She doesn't know it yet, but her blood carries the legacy of Dracula himself. If she embraces her powers, she could either save humanity from her father's return, or become the very monster hunters fear. #texttospeech
