Urban fantasy heist / supernatural action-comedy.
Think John Wick meets The Witching Hour with a dash of Ocean's 8 and Constantine. The tone balances stylish magic-fueled action, dark humor, and slick underworld energy - blending mysticism, art theft, and irreverent banter among thieves and witches.

"Thief" follows Lucifer, a supernatural art thief who steals enchanted objects for her mentor, Dr. Brenda Hughes. During one of her heists, Lucifer crosses paths with Tarrant Rivia, a handsome sorcerer whose charm barely conceals his danger. Their encounter sets off a series of magical and romantic entanglements that mix erotic tension, spellcraft, and high-stakes burglary.

Lucifer's team - including Raina, her reluctant intern, and later betrayed by Mother Shipton, a revived witch - pulls off elaborate, reality-bending jobs. They use spells, enchanted gadgets, and quick wit to steal cursed artworks and ancient relics from the occult elite.

Behind the heists lies something larger: a hidden war among magic users, collectors, and demons. Lucifer's "jobs" are really steps in an unseen chess game orchestrated by Brenda - and possibly by the magical forces inhabiting the stolen art.

The tone blends slick crime style with supernatural chaos - fast-paced, irreverent, and character-driven, full of sensual dialogue, dark humor, and mythic energy cloaked in modern grit.All Rights Reserved

[Book #3 in the Nystrom series] [TW: mature content, heavy topics, language] "You hate me." He states, sounding almost ridiculous. I shake my head. "I don't." A grin tugs at his mouth, he takes a step closer. "You like me then." I feel my heart race, the same way it has always done for him. "No." "You love me?" Another question, another lie, another step closer. "Definitely not." "Liar." In a split second his hands are on my waist. My heart not getting a chance to recover because now his lips are on mine. 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀 𝐋𝐔𝐃𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐎, the innocent angel. Or so they thought. She was someone you'd want to worship, not knowing whether you were worshipping a goddess or someone far worse than the devil himself. Yet in the middle of her chaos, there was him - he was her anchor, but unfortunately for her, she was drowning. 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎 T̶H̶O̶R̶N̶B̶R̶I̶D̶G̶E̶ 𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐄, the abomination that shouldn't have been born. He had never cared about anything or anybody, until her. Her heart was the only thing he wanted to hold, her name the only language he knew, her existence woven into his veins. She was like a knife, and he was ready to bleed. They promised friendship, nothing more-but hearts are liars, and so were they. 𓆩♡𓆪 Started: August 2024 Finished: TBA

I See You by January616

Hey there folks, I'm Cody Phillips, welcome to New Orleans. N'awlins is known for many wonderful things, our coffee, music and the ability to throw a damn fine party. We're also known as the city most people believe may be one of the most haunted places in the world. Well, let me tell you this, we have more than our fair share. I know because I can see them. But, listen, don't spread that around. Yeah? It's been a closely guarded family secret my whole life. Not even my best friend knows this about me. See, I use my 'gift' in my work as a homicide detective with NOLA's finest boys in blue. Now, I understand why you might call it cheating, and that's fine. But I always catch the bad guy with the victim telling me everything I need to know and give the family involved closer. So it evens out as far as I can tell. Now just as my life is moving slower than a gator with a full belly, the worst happens. I get the call about a homicide that's hit too close to home. It leaves the girl of my dreams coming home to face tragedy. The moment I see her I find myself reminded of the one secret no one ever knew. Ever since I was eight years old I have felt many different things for Emma O'Neal, and those feelings haven't disappeared with time. Problem is now that she's come home; I find myself fighting not only an unknown assailant out for blood, my partner's misguided beliefs but my own need for the enticing beauty I'm duty sworn to protect. Damn, I just hope I'm able to fight the feelings I have for this woman, and stay focused on the case. Otherwise, I might end up losing something far more precious to me than the honor I've worked so hard for: Emma's life.

Kevin Angelus Collins spent years hunting monsters-the kind who steal children and destroy innocence.

But when he discovers Charlotte Morningstar-injured, powerless, and stripped of her memories-everything changes. She's the Princess of Hell. He's a soldier fighting for his soul. As they race against time to rescue kidnapped children from a ruthless crime lord known as "The Bible," and his Vodou henchman, Samedi. Charlotte's demonic powers begin to resurface. Side by side, they become an unstoppable force: his tactical brilliance paired with her supernatural abilities. But their growing love complicates everything when Heaven and Hell both come calling, and dark forces threaten to tear them apart. When an ancient demon rises to claim Charlotte, and Bible and Samedi set a trap that could destroy them both, Kevin must choose between the Heaven he's earned and the Hell he's willing to embrace. Because some promises transcend death itself, and some love stories are worth sacrificing eternity. From Hell to Earth and back again, witness the beginning of Charlotte Morningstar's journey-and meet the hero who taught the Princess of Hell what it truly means to save a soul. For fans of Hazbin Hotel seeking the untold origin story of how Charlie learned that redemption is always possible, even for demons who fall in love with angels.
