Stealing My Brother's Fate

Aria Sinclair's twin brother Asher vanished from Royal Academy three months ago. The prestigious Alpha-only institution claimed he dropped out. The police called it a runaway case. But Aria knew her brother—he would never abandon her without a word. When Asher's encrypted final message arrived—"Trust no one. RK knows. Don't let them—"—Aria made a desperate decision. As identical twins who shared the rare phenomenon of matching scents, she would take Asher's place, infiltrate the Academy, and find the truth. Pretending to be an Alpha when she's actually an Omega? Dangerous. Rooming with her brother's mysterious roommate Kael Ashford? Potentially deadly. Kael is everything the Academy whispers about—a brilliant, cold Alpha from the most powerful family, with a reputation for destroying anyone who crosses him. He's also suspicious as hell, watching Aria with those predatory silver eyes like he's waiting for her to slip up. But the longer Aria lives in Asher's shadow, the more she realizes Kael is hiding something too. He flinches at certain questions. He disappears during full moons. And worst of all, he seems to know she isn't who she claims to be. When Aria discovers Asher's blood-stained jacket in Kael's locked drawer, she's certain she's found her brother's killer. But the mate bond thrumming between them—forbidden, impossible, intoxicating—makes her question everything. Is Kael the monster who destroyed her family? Or is he the only one who can help her survive the deadly conspiracy that took Asher's life—and now wants hers?

She works at a small bookstore, attends therapy, and keeps her head down. The past is behind her, or so she believes. Then a postcard arrives. Unsigned, but she recognizes the handwriting instantly: Sophie Bennett, her childhood best friend who drowned eight years ago. "I never left. Come find me. —S" Desperate for answers and terrified she's losing her grip on reality, Emma reaches out to the one person who knew Sophie as well as she did—Nathan Cross, her first love and the man she pushed away a decade ago.

But Emma's ex-husband, Ryan, still has his claws in her mind. His "concern" for her mental state feels like a noose tightening. And when Sophie begins appearing in person—alive, cryptic, and oddly different—Emma can't tell if she's being haunted, manipulated, or if she's finally lost her sanity. To protect her daughter and reclaim her life, Emma must navigate a maze of buried secrets, toxic manipulation, and a truth so twisted it could shatter everything she thought she knew about love, friendship, and survival. One thing is certain: someone is lying. And the cost of trusting the wrong person is her life.

Ashes of Memory, Crown of Flames

"Your entire village burned because of you. Everyone you loved is dead—and it's all your fault." Seventeen-year-old Seraphina Ashborne wakes from the flames to find her hometown of Ember Hollow reduced to cinders, her family's bodies among the ash. The Empire's Inquisitors tell her it was an accident—a tragic fire caused by unstable magic. But Sera knows the truth: someone wanted her village erased from existence. Branded as the sole survivor and blamed by neighboring towns, Sera has lost everything—her home, her family, her innocence, and even her memories of that night. Desperate for answers and burning for revenge, she enters the deadly underworld of the Memory Market, where memories are currency and truth is the most expensive commodity. There she encounters the enigmatic Lord Lucian Gravemire—a handsome gentleman with silver eyes and a reputation for cruelty. He offers her a devil's bargain: he'll help her recover her stolen memories and find those responsible for the massacre, but in return, she must become his weapon in a dangerous game against the Empire itself. As Sera embarks on her quest for vengeance, she gathers an unlikely crew: Vesper, a phantom thief who collects memories and hides a heartbreaking secret; Captain Ironheart, a loyal tin soldier knight cursed to feel nothing; and others scarred by the Empire's ruthlessness. Together, they uncover a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power—one that connects directly to Sera's forgotten past. But as Sera grows stronger and her fire magic awakens with terrifying intensity, she discovers she wasn't just a survivor of the Ember Hollow massacre—she was the target. And the reason why will change everything she thought she knew about herself, her family, and the man who saved her from the flames. One thing is certain: the girl who rose from the ashes is no longer a victim. She's become a storm of fire and fury—and the Empire will burn.

Broken Bonds: The Luna's Awakening

For seven years, Isla Morven loved a man made from ice. She married Alpha Dante Blackthorn thinking her devotion could thaw his frozen heart. She gave him everything—her youth, her loyalty, her body broken twice in childbirth. She even threw herself between him and an assassin's silver blade, nearly dying to save the man who couldn't meet her eyes at their own mating ceremony. But the ice never melted. Not when she bore their daughter. Not when she almost bled out having their son. Not even in the dark when he took her body with clinical precision, as if fulfilling a duty. Isla told herself it was enough. That being Luna of the Blackthorn Pack, raising their cubs, standing beside him—that was love. Until the night she followed her husband's smell to the forest edge and found him rutting against another woman, his mistress's heat pheromones thick in the air, his face alive with passion he'd never shown his wife. Her world shattered totally when her five-year-old son—the boy she'd carried through a nightmare pregnancy, the child she'd sung to sleep every night—ran past her to that woman and cried, "Mommy! Daddy said you'd come back!" Seven years of commitment. Two children. One near-death sacrifice. And Isla was nothing but a free babysitter they'd suffer until the real family could be together. The Moon Goddess had a cruel sense of humor, but Isla Morven was done being the joke. She refused the bond, walked away from the pack that never wanted her, and disappeared into the night with only her daughter's hand in hers. Three years later, Isla has become someone unknown. CEO of her own company, secret heir to the ancient Morven bloodline, surrounded by power and people who truly value her. She's growing. She's happy. She's found a man who looks at her like she hung the moon—Caden Rivers, the rival Alpha who's spent three years showing she deserves to be worshipped. But Dante Blackthorn has finally woken up. His perfect lady showed her true colors. His son cries for the mother who left. His pack is breaking without the Luna who held it together. And the mate bond he ignored for seven years is now an open wound he can't live. He wants her back. He needs her back. He'll kill anyone who stands in his way—including the man who's giving Isla everything Dante was too blind to offer. Too bad for him. Isla Morven isn't the naive girl who married him anymore. She's the wolf who learned to bite back.

Fated To Three, Betrayed By All… Until She Rose.

The Moon Goddess made a mistake— or maybe this was a curse just like everyone says it is. But I always knew deep down that I was never meant to be theirs. They belonged to her. To my twin sister, Chalice, who was sweet. Perfect. Worshipped by the entire pack… and pure venom behind closed doors. The three brothers— Zevran, Kael, and Caelum— hate me with a fire that burns hotter than the bond tying us together. And I know because I see it in their eyes… I feel it in the way their burning touch lingers a second too long. They despise me. Just like everyone else does. But they want me. And no matter how much I try to stay away, the mate bond keeps dragging me back into their world of heat, power, hatred and danger. Maybe, I should leave… I know. But fate plays a cruel game. And as truths unravel and secrets come to light, the triplets— the ones who once despised me— now see me for who I am. Now, they want me— unabashedly. But by the time they realize this, it is a little too late. I’ve been broken by them a little too much. And I am done being anyone’s pawn. ~*~ “We want you, Leilani… we always have. Always would. Please take this as our way of saying sorry. For everything, for not believing you… for letting our judgements be clouded by…” Caelum said softly, his voice trailing off, his breath warm and ticklish against my fingers that he brought up to his lips as his other hand found the warm spot between my thighs. My eyes snagged on his full lips— pink and inviting; But they’d been kissed by another. And I don’t do leftovers. I sighed exasperatedly, shaking my head to rid myself of this pitiful sight and clenching my legs together to force his hands out. He didn’t budge. “No.” I said sharply, my voice coming out stronger than I expected especially with their bodies pressed against mine, and their lips creating sparks across my body. “I’m done. Go back to Chalice… she suits you more than I ever did.” Kael’s voice vibrated through my body as he pressed himself flush against me. His brothers Caelum and Zevran leaned in too, their lips on the shell of my ears, one’s fingers grazing over my taut nipple. “I’ll burn the world, Leilani,” he growled, his voice deep. Threatening. “I’ll burn the entire world, if that’s what it takes to win you back.” “Then I'd like to see you after the world’s been successfully burnt down. Maybe then we’ll have this conversation.” I answered, and with that, I pushed their hands away and leapt off the cupboard. And as I walked out of the kitchen, I felt their eyes drilling holes into my back, hotter than a thousand lasers all at once. But I didn’t falter. I didn’t turn around. I was the monster they’d made.
