The Summer I Stopped Breathing
We spend our whole lives believing we have time. Time to fall in love. Time to say the things we've been too afraid to say. Time to make memories, fix mistakes, and become the people we're meant to be. But time has never promised us forever. Sometimes, it slips through our fingers quietly - hidden inside ordinary mornings, unfinished conversations, stolen glances, and moments we don't realize are precious until they're already gone. And sometimes, the cruelest thing about running out of time isn't knowing how little you have left. It's finally finding something worth living for. Because when the clock begins to count down, every second becomes a memory waiting to happen. And there are some summers you never truly leave behind. Some summers change you. Some summers break you. And some summers teach you how to breathe before time runs out. This is The Summer I Stopped Breathing, and this is Aimee's story. ©️ Blessing Benedicta (plotbunnyxo) | 2026

Mystery of the Midnight Sky (Rose Chase #1)
She uncovers evidence with quiet violence. He solves crimes with a peaceful conversation. She doesn't speak. He doesn't stop. The dead, unfortunately, have opinions about both. Galen Rose calls himself psychic. Shannara Chase calls him insufferable. When a confirmed extraterrestrial sighting leaves a man suspended between life and death, the government scrambles to erase its tracks. Armed with nothing but an antique notepad and a lethal amount of audacity, they do the one thing they were explicitly told not to. They start asking questions. She communicates in scrawls, sign language, and structural violence. He communicates in devastating wordplay, clinical deduction, and a smile that has talked its way out of three countries and into considerably more trouble. They are not a love story. They are a hate story. Best friends who almost hate each other. Enemies who would burn the world down for each other. Trapped in a high-stakes whodunit masked by lies, ancient secrets, and a mystery that doesn't want to be found, they must survive a partnership held together by endless bickering and a slow-burning tension neither can afford to name. The closer they get to the truth, the closer they get to each other. Neither is ready for either. Together they're either going to crack this impossible case or completely destroy each other. (Probably both.) ⚠️ Side effects include: UFO obsession, mutual animosity, conspiracy-induced insomnia, slow burn that will ruin you, enemies-to-lovers tension, and an unhealthy attachment to one devastatingly dangerous mentalist golden boy. Ranked #1 in UFOs and #2 Procedural, #12 in Crime fiction, 3 days into the launch!
The Power Of Silence | Volume 1 of TEMOF
Frankie's trick has always been simple: watch everyone else closely enough, and nobody ever thinks to watch you. It works until an exam, when a note appears under his foot that was never meant to be an answer key. A name he doesn't know. Four words underneath it that he can't stop reading: He knows what happened. Frankie tells himself it's nothing. He's wrong. Within weeks, there's a torn page from his own notebook, stolen from a bag he never let out of his sight. A photograph of Frankie and his five closest friends, taken from an angle none of them noticed, stamped with one word: Vulnerable. Then a blackout traps all six of them inside a locked classroom, and a voice over the PA calmly announces that phase one is complete. Someone has been studying them. Watching which of them trusts too easily, which one fights, which one freezes. Someone who knows the school well enough to move through it unseen. Someone who knows things about Frankie's family that Frankie doesn't know himself. He's built his whole identity around being the quiet one in the back row, the boy who watches and writes everything down and never gets close enough to anyone to be hurt by it. That version of Frankie doesn't survive this book. Now the five people he's finally started to trust are in danger, and observation isn't enough to protect them. He'll have to step out from behind the notebook and become someone they can trust in return. But Frankie still doesn't know what happened, or why these six were chosen. And the more he searches for that answer, the more he begins to suspect that someone wants him looking in exactly the wrong direction. Book One: The Power of Silence, the first installment in The Enigmatic Mysteries of Frankie, is a YA mystery-thriller about secrets, surveillance, and what happens when the person who's always watching finally gets watched back.Complete

The Test
Going through my pictures, I went to the one that I had just taken, and the phone slowly slipped out of my grasp. What had escaped my notice before is that the couch I had taken the picture on was against a window, which showed the backyard of the house. But in this picture, it wasn't an empty backyard. No, behind my smiling face was another one, outside the window. It was his face. Covered with a black ski mask, watching me. *** All 19-year-old Layna wanted to do was forget about the guy that broke her heart, and move on with her new boyfriend Brian.

What Layna never would have expected was that when he finally kidnaps her, she would have to undergo "The Test". The Test that the girls before her had gone through. The one they failed, and payed heavily for. Will she pass The Test or will she die like the others?Complete

Diary of an Almost Perfect StepSister
Alison Warner had the kind of life that was polarizing-either you'd think she was the luckiest girl in the world, or you'd want to put her out of her misery. No in between. At seventeen-two months out of high school, she's supposed to pick her future like it's a curated setlist: clean, pretty, approved. Western University means legacy. Pre-law. Her father's approval. A neat, obedient life she can perform in her sleep. New York means dance. Freedom. Distance. The kind you can pretend is reinvention until it starts eating you alive. So Alison does what she always does when life stops obeying her rules: she goes backwards. She locks her bedroom door. Checks it twice. Then drags a white box out of her closet: four padlocked diaries, one key, and four years of "being good" recorded in ink like evidence. If she can reread the girl she used to be-thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen-maybe she'll understand what she actually wants... and what she's been trained to want. Because once upon a time, she lived in a Toronto penthouse in the sky. Out of sight, out of reach, out of mind. Meals made specially for her. A town car. A private Christian all-girls school. The schedule of someone who works two full-time jobs and still moonlights as a show dog on weekends. Thirteen-year-old Alison loved living with her head in the clouds and her hands soaked in Purell. Then it rained in the kingdom, and boy did it pour. Divorce. A move. A blended family that looks wholesome on paper and feels like a war zone in practice. Stratford isn't just smaller than Toronto-it's louder, messier, and obsessed with watching who you are when you think no one's looking. And then the universe adds the punchline: Halloween night. Seven Minutes in Heaven. A barn closet. A kiss with a cocky boy who only knows her as "Ali"... right before she learns he's about to be her stepbrother. In the dark, he murmurs, "Try not to swoon, Alice."
We spend our whole lives believing we have time. Time to fall in love. Time to say the things we've been too afraid to say.
