Starcrossed cerita

All I wanted was a mate. I just wanted one person to feel my absence in a crowded room─someone who chose me without hesitation, who noticed the silence I left behind, to miss me in the way I'd spent my whole life missing people. But those dreams were fractured the moment I met Troy. He pressed the cold blade flush against my neck. I wanted to fight him and drive my foot into his throat. "Hurry up." Even with death hovering above my pulse, I leaned into the blade. "Do it. Kill me." Here was his chance. He could slaughter me here in the dark with one easy move. He would never have the opportunity again. Everyone had a mate and mine was going to kill me. *** 2nd in series | can be read as a standalone

Until now, magic has been elemental-fire and lightning, ice and sound. But some power is not wielded. It is spoken. Light of the Broken Tongue draws back the veil on the Fey Kingdom, the living language of Syvareth, and the girl whose birth may change the balance of the world. Through Lumiriel, truths long buried begin to surface-about lost voices, fractured histories, and the price of silence. What became of the four fey who escaped captivity-and what will happen when their stories are finally heard? As the stars shift overhead, the dragons of the Luminous Grove emerge from centuries of isolation. Bound to fate and guided by constellations older than kingdoms, they watch, they wait, and they know more than they are willing to say-especially Altairix, a star dragon whose path is written across the night sky. But far beneath stone and soil, something ancient stirs. An old hunger. A buried evil that remembers the world before peace. If it rises, the fragile alliance between humans, dragons, and fey may shatter completely... or be forged into something stronger than it has ever been. Because there is no force more unifying than a threat that could destroy them all.

A nail gun to the brain on my 18th birthday. That's how my story starts. I was already the "Ice Princess"--orphaned, untouchable, hidden behind walls nobody could climb. The nail just made it official. Now I'm "the freak," and I've fled to the city where nobody knows my name or my damage. The plan is simple: eat, work, sleep, repeat. Then I meet Eros--mysterious, closed off, and somehow the only person who makes me feel something I buried years ago. But he has a secret. And his enemies? They've already found me.

I am the Lastborn Nephilim-the spark that will ignite Armageddon-and suddenly every creature in Heaven and Hell wants a piece of me. But no one wants me more dangerously than the two Nephilims I can't escape. Eros was supposed to be my safe place. My perfect match. My possessive, intoxicating fiancé who loves me so fiercely it borders on violence. Then Shamsiel walks out of the shadows. Lucifer's favorite weapon. A monster wrapped in a body I shouldn't want. He doesn't make promises-he makes vows sealed in blood and obsession. My power is waking. Ancient forces are closing in. And these two are ready to tear the world apart to make me theirs. The Prophecy says I'll end the world. Nobody warned me I'd enjoy the fire this much.

Élise de Villiers has spent seventeen years sheltered behind the walls of her château, knowing little of the unrest threatening to tear the country apart. Then Lucien Moreau arrives. A young literature teacher with revolutionary ideas, Lucien treats Élise not as the daughter of a countess, but as an equal. As he introduces her to the world beyond her gilded life, an unlikely friendship blossoms, and something deeper begins to take its place. But revolution is no longer just an idea. When violence reaches Élise's home, Lucien betrays the cause he believes in to rescue the girl who has come to mean more to him than he ever expected. Later, they meet again, only to find their love impossible once more, but for different reasons. Can Lucien and Élise finally choose each other, or will the past destroy them before they ever reach their Elysium? *Inspired loosely by Cosette and Marius' love story from Les Miserables and by The Count of Monte Cristo *A bittersweet coming-of-age love story *If you like old-fashioned historical romances, this is for you! *Includes illustrations (disclaimer: illustrations are made with AI)

At 18, Persephone Snow had everything a Capitol girl could ever want: a family name that opened every door, a perfect, preplanned future laid out for her... and a completely unhealthy obsession with Finnick Odair. She has spent her entire life surrounded by wealth, power and the glittering excess that comes with being the president's eldest grandchild, wanting for nothing. But behind her perfect life, there is a hidden world that her grandfather keeps firmly locked from the majority of Capitol citizens. And once Persephone starts looking, she finds it incredibly difficult to stop. *** Finnick had long learnt to block out the hands that roamed his body, to hide in the back of his mind and let autopilot take the reins. It had been years of being sold to the quickest bidder, of allowing his charm to be his shield, with no foreseeable end in sight. When Persephone Snow, the president's granddaughter, walks through the door with blushing cheeks and a stammered explanation, Finnick knows something about this visit is different. As the two of them, both from very different worlds, slowly let their guards down, they realise just how different the other's life is from what they'd always believed. ♤♡◇♧ 1st in #odair -- 05/09/26 1st in #districtfour -- 07/09/26

A concentrated attack by the VIII Air Force on Luftwaffe production. Major Marc Suchet is a 24 year old fighter pilot. His job is to lead his squadron over ocupied Europe and Germany. He's the hardened combat vetran that holds his squadron together. Combat doesn't care how experienced or good you are. A chance hit, a crippled plane, and he finds himself in occupied France. He's alone with nothing but a pistol, a few French phrases, and no way home. He doesn't get far before he's found - not by the Germans, but by a farm girl with a pitchfork and no intention of turning him in. Colette Davout and her family are already risking everything for France. Hiding an American pilot makes the risks even more personal. But as days become weeks, French lessons by the fire become something neither of them expected - and the war that's supposed to keep them apart is the only reason they ever met at all. Getting Marc out of France will take forged papers, trains across France crawling with German patrols, and trusting complete strangers.

Inspired by real Resistance escape lines and the true stories of Allied airmen who evaded with the help of the Resistance. Mustang in France is a story about the ordinary people who risked everything to save strangers and the kind of love that survives on nothing but a promise. Meticulously researched with accurate historical details. The raid actually happened on Feb 25, 1944.
