Twenty-seven-year-old Rahul was living the ultimate modern nightmare: drowning in EMIs, working a soul-crushing corporate job, and dealing with a girlfriend who viewed him as a personal ATM. When she demands a massive fifty lakh rupee security deposit just to marry him, Rahul finally wakes up. He dumps her on the spot, quits his job, sells his cramped suburban flat, and decides to actually live for himself. His grand plan? Fly to Dhaka, Bangladesh, and become a famous travel vlogger. There is just one tiny problem. Within ten minutes of landing, his wallet is stolen, leaving him completely stranded and penniless in a chaotic foreign city. But just as he is about to panic, a strange, incredibly overpowered system awakens in his mind: the Karma Succubus Attribute. Suddenly, his face is upgraded to literal perfection, and he gains the passive ability to irresistibly attract women wherever he goes. Even better, the system rewards him with points and crazy upgrades for forming romantic connections. Armed with a vlogging camera, zero cash, and a face that makes local receptionists forget how to breathe, Rahul sets out to survive his first day. What starts as a desperate attempt to charm his way into a free lunch quickly spirals into a hilarious, globe-trotting adventure. He is leaving his stressful life behind and embracing a completely absurd, fun-filled journey as an international heartthrob. Grab a seat and watch as Rahul fumbles his way to superstardom, navigating crazy travel mishaps and an ever-growing crowd of lovestruck fans, all while capturing it on camera for the world to see.

He woke up without his memories. But not without his instincts. Samirah thought losing him was the hardest thing she’d ever face. She was wrong. Watching her husband look her in the eyes… and not recognize her? That was worse. Now, she’s just a stranger in his hospital room. A stranger wearing his ring. A stranger carrying a past he doesn’t remember. But something isn’t right. Because even without his memories… He watches her too closely. Trusts her too easily. And reacts to her like his heart knows what his mind has forgotten.

Mana descends upon an unprepared world. Dungeons rupture reality. Monsters pour out. Humanity awakens in response—some with sparks, some with power capable of leveling continents. Aris Ashborne was born into that world. His problem? He was too damn cute to be taken seriously! Media companies treat him like heaven's favourite mascot. Fellow awakened dote on him as if he isn't ranked among the strongest humans alive. Confessions pile up. Stalkers appear. The title "Cutest Awakened" follows him everywhere. No one seems interested in how he earned his S-rank. It's hard to command fear when people are asking what skincare routine you use. Oh well. Being underestimated has its own perks too. Truth is, Aris Ashborne is one of the few people that has transcended the ranking system entirely. He is among the few that could very well rule the world if he wanted to. But for now, he is contempt with being called a cutie. After all, monsters don't always look the part.

Nineteen-year-old Maya Santos is the last person who should end up tangled in Zachary Harrington's world. A first-generation university student on a full scholarship, she arrives at one of New York's most prestigious universities with carefully managed expectations and a singular goal — graduate, succeed, and never owe anyone anything. Zachary Harrington is twenty-one, brilliant, and suffocating inside a life built entirely by his father's money and expectations. He has never worked for anything he couldn't buy, never wanted anything he couldn't have — and he has long since stopped feeling much of anything at all. Their first meeting is a collision of worlds. She walks into his reserved study room and simply — stays. No apology. No intimidation. Just quiet, immovable dignity that leaves him staring at an empty corner long after she's gone. When a semester-long Economics project forces them together, what begins as mutual irritation slowly, dangerously, becomes something neither of them can name or afford. Around them, the stakes keep rising. Liam Park — gentle, devoted, quietly in love with Maya since orientation — offers her the kind of steady warmth she has always told herself she wanted. Cole Donovan, charming captain of the basketball team, pursues her openly and without apology. Maya finds herself surrounded by good men who see her clearly — and still, inexplicably drawn to the one who started by looking straight through her. Then there is Nadia Ferrara — Zach's elegant, possessive on-and-off girlfriend — who sees the shift in him before he does and will not surrender without leaving damage in her wake. As the semester deepens, so do the secrets. Maya discovers that the scholarship funding her entire education is administered by the Harrington Foundation — Zach's family. Zach's father, cold and controlling, dismisses Maya as nobody. A rumor threatens her academic reputation and everything she has sacrificed to be here. And beneath all of it, two people are slowly, painfully unlearning every wall they ever built. Beautifully Ruined is a contemporary new adult romance set against the golden and brutal backdrop of university life in New York City. It is a story about the violence of class difference and the quiet revolution of dignity. About the boys who love carefully and the ones who love dangerously. About heartbreak, reconciliation, and the terrifying grace of choosing someone even when it costs you everything. Some people enter your life like a mistake. Some mistakes change everything

WARNING: Some mature content!!! 18+ This is what you call Urbantasy.. Fantasy in an urban setting with a strong female lead -- a story riddled in mystery, magic, and a lot of sass. ======= CHAPTER 1 sneak peek! ======= The air between them tightened like a rope. Cael leaned closer, head tilting slightly, pulling at her waist again, smugness softened into something sharper and quieter. His eyes flicked to her lips then back to her eyes as if asking for permission he didn't need. Hunger of a different kind pumped through Cael. The hunger that Galathea unmistakably recognized as it pressed hard against her lower abs, forcing through the fabric as if it can tear through. At the sensation, Galathea's mouth parted before she could stop it. Her whole body screamed at her to either shove him away or close the last inch between their lips herself. ===== SYNOPSIS ===== Galathea Brooks spent her life surviving quietly -- counting inventory, enforcing rules, keeping her head down inside one of the most powerful art institutions in the city. It's a simple life because paint doesn't talk; power doesn't notice people like her. and names are just names. -- That is... until a painting remembered her. When ancient works buried beneath Artemis Art Gallery began to respond to Galathea's presence, she becomes the center of the system that's older than the building itself. A system that cataloged her long before she knew it existed. Her name is not a coincidence. It is a KEY. Cael Alexander, on the other hand, has always understood control. As Artemis' immaculate but dangerous CEO, he manages secrets like no other. He knows the gallery and its bowels more than anyone. He knows what's hidden; he knows what's awaken. What he didn't expect, however, was Galathea. As archaic works of art start to stir, boundaries fracture -- between observer and artifact, power and possession, restraint and desire. Every choice Galathea makes draws her deeper into fate that doesn't want permission... only acknowledgement. Mind you, awakenings don't ask when you're ready.

Clara Vance had it all. Millions of followers, a beauty empire built on glamour, and a life curated for the camera. But a lost bet with her mother sends her away from a marvelous weekend trip to Mykonos and into the dusty attic of her family’s decaying ancestral manor. The catch was her inheritance. Her task? A dreary clear-out. Her discovery? A centuries-old diary belonging to her great-grandmother, Eleanor Thorne. The ink tells a story of a forgotten history. Eleanor’s forbidden obsession with her guardian and step-uncle, Casimir Guggenheim, a ruthless railroad tycoon with a heart of stone. But when Clara touches the tear-stained pages, the scent of crushed gardenias doesn’t just fill the room, it drags her back to 1879. Trapped in Eleanor’s corseted body, Clara finds herself under the roof of the very man who haunted the diary. To the world, Casimir is a cold, untouchable magnate. To Clara, he’s a puzzle she’s determined to break. The problem? Clara isn’t the timid, fragile girl Casimir remembers. She’s a 21st-century It Girl with no filter, a strategic mind for business, a total lack of respect for Gilded Age propriety and a defiance waiting for trouble to happen. While the original Eleanor was a victim of her station, Clara is ready to burn the cage down. As Clara navigates a world where a single misstep means ruin, scheming relatives see her as a pawn, and a powerful suitor sees her as nothing but a business merger. She realizes the history books were wrong. Rewriting Eleanor’s tragic end is dangerous, especially when she starts falling for the man she was never supposed to have. History says they’re a tragedy. Clara says history is about to get a makeover.
