The Beautiful Trapped Ghost (BWWM) by KassandraVivu

Liam left everything that he knew behind, his house, the neighborhood he lived in, and the city that he knew. Why? Because he needed a change. He needed a fresh start; he couldn't handle the gossips anymore, the neighbors whispering behind his back, the failed relationship that ended with a heartache for him and not his ex. He needed to be in a new area where no one knew what happened; no one knew the suffering he went through. So what does Liam do? He packs his things, sells his house, old furniture, and buys a new home in an area he's never even been in or heard of. Everything should go perfectly, right? This fresh start. Not quite, Liam has an unwanted guest in his new house, and this guest doesn't want to leave; she seems to be telling him that it's her house and not his. She's mistaken; this house was Liams. After all, he's purchased it for an excellent price and has moved all his new things in there. She's the one that needs to go, not him. So why is it that Liam is unable to kick her out of his home? Why is it that she won't leave?! or is it that she can't go. Strange things start to occur in Liam's new home, something that shouldn't be happening, spooky things, things that would happen in horror movies, and Liam doesn't know what to do. He starts to panic; he's the only one panicking; the unwanted guest, on the other hand, just stares at him with a smile as she throws her head back, letting out a chilling laugh. "We'll see who ends up leaving, because I am not going anywhere." She says.

RoseBlood by meeshapatricia

Roses have many representations. For Holly Cassia, it's one of pure dread. Dread knowing that the RoseBlood Killer has murdered both of her parents in a poetically twisted way, and now they're after her, leaving only threatening love notes and blood-red roses to remind her that they're closer than she thinks... and they aren't going anywhere.

However, time is ticking, and Holly is the last victim in the murderer's sights. If she dies, she's sure that they'll disappear for good, and the case will go cold. But can she learn to trust the Tyrels, especially Emerson, who seems more alike to her than anyone she's met before? Could the strange murder that happened in their own family three years ago be connected to the one that took away the Cassias' lives? And will the Tyrels manage to reopen the cold case that left them fatherless, to solve The Case of the RoseBlood Killer once and for all, or will the truth remain buried? "Roses are red, "Blood is too, "You're better off dead, "I'm coming for you."
