In a city ruled by shadows and secrets, monsters walk freely—disguised as humans, bound by ancient laws no one dares to break. Eliana is an orphan with no past and no family, working long nights at a powerful law firm that defends people who never seem entirely human. She believes her strange instincts, her unnatural heat, and the fire that answers her emotions are flaws she must hide. She has no idea they are the legacy of an ancient dragon tribe thought long extinct. Asher is vampire nobility—cold, controlled, and centuries old—born into one of the ruling bloodlines that governs the supernatural world from the shadows. Raised to obey tradition and preserve balance at any cost, he has never questioned the laws that forbid vampires from crossing blood with dragons… until the night he meets Eliana. Their connection is immediate. Dangerous. Impossible. As hidden wars stir beneath the city and long-buried treaties begin to fracture, Eliana becomes the center of a conflict she never knew existed. The law firm she works for is no coincidence. Her past was never lost—it was erased. Loving Asher could ignite a war that would destroy them both. But walking away might be even deadlier. In a world where blood commands power and fire answers only to truth, Blood & Ember is a modern dark fantasy romance about forbidden desire, ancient bloodlines, and the choice between destiny and the one person who makes eternity worth risking.

The Housekeeper’s Vow is a romantic and psychological thriller of power, envy, and quiet revenge, set inside a glass-walled penthouse where nothing is as transparent as it seems. Georgia Lane, known to the world as G. L. Sterling is a celebrated academic and bestselling author whose words about trauma have saved countless readers. Publicly, she is brilliant, wealthy, and admired. Privately, she is exhausted, haunted by a buried past, and financially propping up her charming but stagnant fiancé, Noah, whose ambition feeds more on her success than his own effort. When Georgia’s longtime housekeeper abruptly resigns, her replacement arrives almost too perfectly. Lizzy is young, capable, soft-spoken, and a devoted fan. But beneath her modest appearance lies Josette Hilton, a woman Georgia once knew at Bradford University, a woman who never forgot being overlooked, replaced, and erased. Lizzy has not come to clean, she has come to audit Georgia’s life. Living quietly within the penthouse, Lizzy observes the fault lines Georgia refuses to see, the emotional vacuum, the unpaid devotion, and most importantly, Noah’s hunger to be admired. Where Georgia challenges him, Lizzy soothes. Where Georgia is absent, Lizzy is present. A warm meal. A listening ear. A mirror that reflects Noah as the genius he longs to be. As Georgia grows suspicious and the past tightens its grip, Lizzy’s true plan unfolds, not just to expose secrets, but to dismantle Georgia piece by piece. Reputation can be destroyed. Money can be drained. But taking the man Georgia has sacrificed everything for? That would be the final reckoning. The question lingers like a held breath: Will Noah recognize the seduction for what it is or will he willingly step into Lizzy’s trap, sealing Georgia’s undoing from inside her own glass house?

Mature (R-18+) Three years of marriage. Three years of silence, loneliness, no recognition, and now... betrayal. Elara Frost thought love meant patience, that one day her husband would finally see her emotions, her love, and her care, and choose her, cherish her as she did. But the only thing he gave her was loneliness and indifference. And thus, when his affection for his secretary shadowed her entirely, shattered her illusions, and made her realize that she was never anything to him, never more than a pawn, she walked away. Everyone who knew them thought she would fade away without him, that she wouldn't survive a day without the luxurious life her husband provided, but did they really know her, the real her? She didn't leave to disappear; she went to return as someone untouchable, someone her ex couldn't dare to provoke, and someone every man desired and every family wanted as their daughter-in-law. When her real identity was revealed, it left everyone shocked. She returned as the real heiress, with connections to the underworld. She returned as the woman everyone needed to bow to and fear, wrapped in diamonds and draped in the drapes of vengeance. After being betrayed once, Elara vowed she would never fall in love again, but the queens aren't safe from love either. She isn't left with much choice when her childhood fiancé returns from abroad, promising her the world she never had. Snippet: "I would be a fool to fall for a man again after everything that life has made me go through," Elara confessed, her expression edgy, a solemn hint crossing her eyes. "In that case, don't fall for me, Miss Elara. Instead, let me fall for you. Because I know for sure, you are worth fighting for," Daniel Macros said, his eyes holding nothing but pure obsession, something she had never experienced before. Elara thought dealing with one persistent pursuer was hard enough, but what would she do when her ex-husband knelt before the entire world, begging for her to return? Will she let the old flame of her love burn again, or will she let Daniel's calm presence sweep her off her feet? Disclaimer: The story is participating in the Viral Book Call 2025. Please support.

"They took everything from you—your family, your memories, even your name. Now take it all back." Nineteen-year-old Elara Crane wakes in a stranger's bed with no memory of how she got there, only to discover her entire village of Cinder grace has been burned to ash overnight. Everyone she loved is gone. The authorities call it a "tragic magical accident," but Elara knows better—someone wanted her village erased, and her along with it. Branded as cursed and shunned by neighboring towns, Elara has lost everything: her home, her family, her identity, and most horrifyingly, all memories before the age of twelve. The gaps in her mind whisper of secrets someone desperately wanted buried. Enter Vincent Ashwood—the devastatingly handsome noble who found her wandering the smoking ruins that morning. He offers shelter at his isolated mansion and claims he wants to help. But Vincent has secrets of his own, including why he was at Cindergrace before dawn, and why he looks at Elara like he's seeing a ghost. Desperate for answers, Elara plunges into the criminal underworld of the Memory Market, where she encounters: Raven, a notorious phantom thief who steals memories and wears a thousand faces, hiding a connection to Elara's forgotten past. Sir Copperfield, a once-human knight cursed into a mechanical body, who serves a mysterious debt and speaks in riddles about "the girl who burned twice." Marcus Thorne, a charming information broker with a devastating smile and a sister who vanished in similar circumstances. As Elara hunts for her stolen memories, she uncovers a conspiracy that spans the highest echelons of power. Her village wasn't destroyed by accident—it was a targeted execution to eliminate the last living heir of the Phoenix bloodline, a royal family that once ruled with fire magic before being overthrew in a brutal coup twenty years ago. But here's the twist: Elara didn't just survive the massacre. She caused it. Her awakening Phoenix magic consumed everything in a explosion of flame she can't remember. And the reason Vincent saved her? He's the son of the very family that ordered her bloodline's extinction—and he's been hiding her from his own mother, the Queen, who will stop at nothing to finish what she started. As Elara's powers awaken and passion ignites between her and the enemy prince sworn to protect her, she must decide: seek revenge on those who destroyed her family, or forge a new future with the man who should have been her destroyer. One thing is certain: the girl who rose from the ashes remembers nothing. But fire? Fire never forgets.
