Ravencourt Manor sleeps beneath endless fog, its roses blooming red as spilled wine.
They say its Duke murdered his wife. They say her ghost still walks the halls.

When Clara Ashworth arrives to take the dead woman's place, she finds more than shadows and silence. The Duke watches her like a man haunted-by grief, by guilt... or by recognition.

The walls seem to know her name. The roses never die.
And as the line between love and madness begins to blur, Clara must face a terrifying truth-
some hearts never rest. They only return.

Papercuts by RaeganSalander

This contains only the first four chapters. The book will be published in January on Amazon after edits. A dark, haunting romance of control, obsession, and the woman who dared to walk away. Rune knew exactly what she was doing when she entered Dorian Black's world. He was cold, brilliant, and untouchable-a man who didn't believe in love, only contracts. She accepted the role he offered: loyal secretary, occasional lover, silent shadow. Bound by rules. Defined by limits. But when her usefulness runs out, Dorian discards her like all the others. Only this time, Rune walks away carrying something he never planned for .And a truth she's kept hidden for years. Now, as she prepares to rebuild the life she left behind, Dorian is forced to confront what he thought he controlled. Because Rune was never meant to matter. She was supposed to leave his life untouched. But some bonds go deeper than desire. And some memories don't stay down. A slow-burn tale of longing, betrayal, and the quiet strength it takes to choose yourself.

Haunted Hearts by BritCYancey

After losing three fiancés in tragic accidents over the past six years, Lady Elphi Matson knows three things for certain: heartache only maims its victim when it should kill, not all haunted places are crumbling castles, and without a doubt, she is cursed when it comes to falling in love. Able to see ghosts since surviving a drowning accident at age nine, Lord Rufus Treadway works as a Private Investigator of the paranormal. So, when his closest friend Lord Roderick Matson pleads for help solving Elphi's curse, Rufus agrees to attend the Sanham séance, promising not to let Elphi know Roderick hired him and, for his own safety, not to fall in love with her. However, just like curses, some promises are meant to be broken.
