An Alice In The Wonderland Retelling

Seventeen-year-old Eleana Rosenberg lived a terribly mundane life with her adoptive parents and sister before she was swept away to a world with wormholes in the form of rabbit holes, deadly gorgeous shapeshifters, and one mad king-while attending a dreadful countryside wedding.

Eleana was caught in the middle of a confuddling mess between a country of bizarre citizens and a bipolar royalty, all wanting to crown her queen, a nest of skeletal monstrosity in a creepy ivory palace, and the development of her very own peculiar powers.

In A World of My Own - Book One by AutumnFrost22

Adara was a semi-normal seventeen-going-on-eighteen-year-old girl living a normal if not boring life prior to the fateful evening she and her mother are attacked by chimeric undead monsters. That kinda broke her string of typical evenings. After taking a bizarre fall through a hidden portal in her closet, Adara finds herself lost within a fantastically absurd world where everyone starts calling her "Alice" after seeing the unusual birthmark of a dragon on her neck... Magic is forged within Adara's very blood, allegiances are blown to the wind like a house of cards, and Adara finds herself on the quest of a lifetime not only trying to find her mom, but also finding herself along the way...

The Reluctant Cougar (Rise of the Alpha King's Heir) by AmouraLucinda

*Complete but still subject to edits* Ben Cougar and Eileen Grau have been best friends since they were kids. For the young cougar-shifter, it was love at first sight. For the ostracized Vampire girl, it was good to have a friend--even if he was six years younger. Time changes all things, however, and when Eileen comes home from college Ben is no longer "little" in any sense of the word. He has a young man's body, a young man's desires, and he's done letting other men break his woman's heart. Ignorant people might call her a cougar, but if Ben has his way, soon everybody will be calling her Mrs. Cougar. Shapeshifter x vampire Older woman x younger man *** A few notes: This story takes place in the late '90s/early 2000s. This is a prequel, and while it does lead into the next story it can be read as a HEA standalone. This is an instant-love, slow-burn story that will include dirty talk and some some tamer aspects of kink-play as the characters' relationship progresses. Also, because I want everybody to have a happily ever after, this story will occasionally take detours into the minds and relationships of the side characters. I hope you enjoy! ***** #1 in cougar 8/2/21 #1 in olderwoman 12/8/21 #1 in youngerman 11/20/21 #1 in fatedlovers 8/2/21 #1 in bloodmates 12/27/22 #5 in loveconquersall 11/5/23 #9 in energy 12/8/21 #12 in empathy 12/8/21 #12 in nineties 11/5/23

AN: Yes their is LGBTQ+ in this story so reader's beware. It is also not the main focus but in enough light that if you don't like it don't comment about it or read it for that mater. I'm a writer and I write what I think would make a good story and feel good to write about. I will say this, I'm not vary good at spelling or grammar but I do my best. I can say one thing! I can make one hell of a story when I put my mind two it! (Even if that story has mistakes and needs many more rereads for corrections, add-ons, and take outs.) Reviews are appreciated. If you like one part or dislike another give some feed back. I just don't appreciate haters. Feed back is not hate! It is what you think could do better or if something is good just the way it is. Have a nice read ~Jewels Wolf

A Legend Is Born by TLPhillips

From orphan at fourteen to immortal royalty at nineteen, how the heck did that happen? Nineteen-year-old Lissa witnessed the brutal murder of her parents by blood-thirsty vampires at the tender age of fourteen. She would have suffered the same unpleasant fate had tall, dark, and mysterious stranger Max not intervened. Every night since Lissa, along with an elite group of fighters, trains and patrols the mostly abandoned streets around the city of Buffalo, NY. They quietly thwart the dastardly plans of rogue vampires and cursed shifters in an attempt to protect mankind. Having been told that all shifters are evil, Lissa is taken by surprise when she learns that there are good ones in the world - the Guardians. And she's bonded with one of them, an ultra-rare occurrence amongst Guardians in recent years and unheard of between a Guardian and a mortal. When a typically fatal injury threatens to end her, her bond-mate throws caution to the wind and uses his own blood to save her. The consequences could be disastrous when Lissa wakes up to find she is no longer human, and not only a shifter herself but the shifter queen. ***NOTE*** The first few chapters of this story were previously published under a different cover.

Over My Rainbow by LAamber14

Amantha is not ready to be anything other than a wild, tomboy princess, but when tragedy strikes this unlikely royal is called upon to rule a kingdom. Scared to grow up, she runs away from responsibility and finds a new world in an adventure to find out who she really is inside. While Amantha is no princess in distress, she has much to learn about the world of magic and mystery and along with the help of a beautiful boy with a secret past, she uncovers the fairy tale world that lives right outside of her kingdom. "When I was little, I didn't believe that there was magic. I had been taught that no elves, witches, leprechauns, unicorns, harpies, trolls or dragons had ever existed. No one could turn into anything else and everything happened for a reason. Now that I'm older, I realize that even if a tutor told me those things, you can't believe everything people say. I happen to know that magic exists because I have seen it with my own eyes. If you believe that dreams come true, they will. And fairy tales aren't only in story books."
