around family fiction loop mystery mystery-thriller

Syndel O'Conner, the restless middle child of a tight-knit but fractured family, wakes up one morning to find that time in their home has reset. The same conversations, the same arguments, the same laughter-repeating in an eerie, unbreakable cycle. No one else seems to notice.

At first, she thinks it's just déjà vu. Then, as the days blur into each other, she realizes she's trapped in a never-ending loop inside the walls of her childhood home. No matter what she does-whether she confesses a secret, breaks a family heirloom, or even tries to leave-the day resets when the clock strikes midnight.

As she digs deeper, Syndel uncovers forgotten memories, long-buried family secrets, and a hidden force tethering them all to this house. If she wants to escape, she must piece together the truth about her family's past-before she loses herself to the loop forever.

But breaking the cycle might mean unraveling everything the O'Conners have ever known. And some truths are more terrifying than being trapped in time.All Rights Reserved

What if your past walked in before it could abandon you? Nineteen-year-old Rina has made peace with the ghosts in her life. Mostly. Her parents vanished when she was a baby.

Now they're stuck in the future - in her apartment - and somehow, impossibly, they're her parents. Mira and Nico aren't ready to raise a child. Rina's not ready to face the people who never stayed. But time doesn't care about readiness. As reality bends and the mirror starts to flicker again, they're all faced with a question none of them know how to answer: Can you rewrite the future by understanding the past - or will knowing each other break them all over again?

Whiteout by MartyMatlock

When twenty-four-year-old Gillian Lambert joins her friends for a winter retreat in the mountains, she imagines cozy nights and carefree days on the slopes. The rustic lodge feels charming, though its innkeeper, Arthur, lingers in the background-quiet, awkward, and difficult to read. One evening, Gillian catches him watching her from across the firelight. Her friends laugh it off as nothing. She isn't so sure. When a massive storm sweeps in, the group decides to leave early. Gillian lingers behind-and when her car won't start, she finds herself trapped as the snow piles higher, the roads vanish, and the outside world disappears. Alone in the silent lodge with Arthur, Gillian senses something shifting. His calm politeness feels too careful. His gaze lingers a moment too long. Isolated and cut off, she can't tell if he's her reluctant savior... or something far more dangerous. As the storm deepens into a whiteout, Gillian begins to question what lies beneath the surface-of the man who keeps her company, and of herself. In the storm, trust is a luxury... and survival may come at the cost of surrender.
