James Chalklin dreams of being a painter. A chance meeting leads him into Turner's decaying world, but who is the woman that covers her face to disguise a hideous disfigurement?
As James begins to understand Turner, he begins to see that dreaming and hoping are not sufficient to turn his own life around.

to mars and back
She was a dainty fairy painted with fragile brushstrokes to illustrate the pages of a children's storybook. She was everything that she had craved from a person, her personality was contagious and her joy was stupendous. She was the light that appeared in her life and helped her to find everything that made her who she is today. Without her she was nothing. And despite the pain River caused, she wouldn't change it for the world. Jupiter was unable to fathom how she had once lived without her, how she had spent years a stranger with this girl. Ju
Devotion And wrath
Phase 1 - The Core Story From the Author of "Devotion and Wrath" Every author has that one story-the one that doesn't let them sleep, the one that claws at their soul until it's written. For me, Devotion and Wrath is that story. This is not just ink on pages. This is blood, memory, obsession, and redemption. It's a symphony composed in silence and storms. And at its center: Zyran and Noor-two names that now live in every corner of my imagination. Zyran was never meant to be a hero. He was forged in fire, trained in control, designed for destruction. Noor, on the other hand, was the light he never expected, the softness that made him bleed, the voice that shattered years of silence within him. Their story is layered with betrayal, fierce longing, unhealed wounds, and love so consuming it often feels indistinguishable from wrath. This is not a love story. This is a survival story wrapped in obsession. This is Devotion and Wrath. In Phase 1, you'll find the raw, messy, aching truths behind Zyran and Noor's journey. You'll watch them fight-each other, themselves, and the past that refuses to die. And through every confrontation, every stolen moment, every sharp word and trembling silence, you'll feel how devotion can become the sharpest blade... and wrath, the deepest proof of love. But even as I tell their story, I must admit: another story has begun to rise from the shadows.Concluída
