The continuation of Risking The Rogues! (must read first!) Gage, the famous pirate captain of the Grey Ghost is still desperate for the weapon that will at last bring him vengeance against the wielder of many names - Ryker Vidaris, The Mage, the man who killed his wife. The very weapon the Scarlet Queen tempted him with and denied him; crossing him just as he crossed the one woman who he still needs, in more ways than his heart can admit...

Clara is drowning under the weight of many new truths about her past while resisting the manipulations of Ryker, who insists she is destined to do his dirty work and kill the bloody monarch.  With her once budding passion for a criminal flowered into a burning hatred, Clara never wants to see Gage again. But the Scarlet Queen has something she desperately wants as well - the son she thought she'd lost. Can Clara and Gage come together one last time to do what must be done in these Tempestuous Times?

The Ghost Princess - Graylands vol. I (EXCERPT) de M_Walsh
3 partes Concluida
Graylands is where people go when they don't want to be found. A neutral, mostly frontier country between two opposing empires, it is a haven for drifters, pilgrims, outlaws, and everything in between hoping to build a new life, find adventure, or just disappear. Katrina Lamont is one such individual. Once upon a time, she was the Chosen One--a warrior charged with a great and heroic destiny. But when she finished her journey, there was no happy ending waiting for her. Now she lives as an embittered, alcoholic drifter, haunted by the ghosts of her past. But when an evil sorcerer, Jacob Daredin, seeks to fulfill an ancient prophecy that may grant him god-like power, Katrina will have to take up the sword once again as she finds herself caught in a race to find the young woman whose sacrifice is the key to Daredin's mad dream. Along the way, she will contend with Krutch Leeroy--an infamous outlaw who is not all he seems--and cross paths with Lily Blackthorn--a perky, but mysterious woman with a dark secret of her own. As Daredin's forces close in, they will traverse a haunted landscape of pirates, demons, killers, con-men, an immortal juggernaut, and worse in an adventure where the line between destiny and plain bad luck is razor thin. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is an excerpt from my first novel, which was released in April of 2015 and named to Kirkus Review's Best Books of that year.

122 partes Concluida Contenido adulto
He doesn't believe in God. She doesn't believe in love. But fate didn't ask for their permission. Ruthless. Feared. Obsessively in control-Rudra Singh Rathora never planned to marry. But when duty calls, he makes the ultimate sacrifice: a marriage of convenience to the innocent sister of his most loyal man. Dhanvi was never supposed to end up in a royal palace-let alone as the bride of a man who stares at her like she's prey and speaks like he's carved from stone. Cold. Distant. Dangerous. But something dark is stirring beneath the marble floors and ancestral curses. A forgotten palace. A whispered prophecy. And a voice that calls her from the shadows: "My Rani sa... my darkest desires await your return." As Dhanvi is pulled deeper into a world of rituals, secrets, and power-Rudra finds himself spiraling. Because the one thing he swore he'd never need is the only thing he can't let go of. In a kingdom where love is a weakness and loyalty is a weapon... Can a girl with trembling hands tame a man with fire in his veins? #DarkRoyalRomance #ArrangedMarriage #IndianRomance #PossessiveHero #WattpadReads #RudraAndDhanvi #CursedPalace #EnemiesToObsession #ForbiddenDesire #WattpadIndia

Fern should've stayed dead. But death spat her out with fire in her lungs and Thane's name on her tongue. Now, resurrected and burning with something new and terrifying in her blood, she's on a desperate hunt-not just to find Thane and the others she was forced to leave behind, but to understand what she's become and how the hell she's alive. Her search drags her into the heart of Evatan-the kingdom of men-and straight into the path of the High Lord Rouland. He's dangerous, calculating, and hauntingly familiar. He keeps Fern on a gilded leash, parading her as the savior of his people, all while dangling Thane's whereabouts like a knife to her throat. With Thane's face and none of his heart, he offers a trade: help him win the war, and he'll give her information on Thane. But trust comes at a cost-and Rouland wants far more than an alliance. He wants everything. But Fern didn't crawl her way back from the grave to become a bargaining chip. Surrounded by strangers, tangled in politics, and stalked by the shadow of war, Fern has to play the game right. She meets new allies, reunites with old ones, and keeps the ember of rebellion burning in her chest. The war is far from over. Sayda is still in hiding. And Fern's return might just break the world for good. Will she take the High Lord's deal? Or will she burn the whole damn kingdom down? Among the Ashes is a story of rebirth, ruin, and ruthless choices. Power always comes with a price. And Fern is done paying it in silence.
Grim Echoes de ryanahunter

Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.
Bloody Love de CelestialDream23

Bloody Love" follows the legend of Captain Mazu, a fearsome pirate and living legend known as the "Mother of the Seas." At 53, with a face scarred by a kraken and a reputation built on merciless raids, Mazu's reign is one of absolute power and cold discipline. Her ship, the Fire Dream, is a harbinger of doom, its black sails a symbol of her unyielding might. However, Mazu's world is shattered by a cryptic message in a bottle: "She lives." The two words force her to confront a past she thought was long buried. They refer to the Leviathan, an infamous warship that vanished a decade ago in a legendary storm, and its tyrannical captain-Mazu's former rival and mentor. The message isn't a threat; it's a challenge, leading her to the treacherous Drowned Isles. There, Mazu uncovers the truth: the Leviathan wasn't lost to a storm, but was sunk by her nemesis, a cunning and ruthless rival named Kael, who is very much alive and waiting for her. The story evolves beyond a simple pirate tale of vengeance. Mazu's journey becomes a test of her spirit and her leadership. As she grapples with the ghosts of her past, she must navigate not only the literal storms of the sea but also the emotional tempests that haunt her crew. She faces a vengeful spectral ship, a rival once a friend, and a city dying from a curse born of regret. In a world where the sea itself is a character-a harsh mistress and a source of profound power-Mazu learns that her greatest strength isn't her cutlass or her cunning, but her connection to the ocean and the loyalty of a crew that now sees her not just as a captain, but as an oracle and a protector.
