Prince Aidyn of Embermoore wants nothing more than to be treated as a regular person instead of a prince, and experience “normal person things,” like getting called by his first name, being a professional yet approachable boss, and eventually falling in love. Mage Noelle Allendale, Aidyn’s co-worker and long time friend, never wants to fall in love again. She knows all too well that falling things tend to shatter when they hit the ground. As a Memorizer Mage, the crystal clear Recall of her magic doesn’t let her forget anything she feels or encounters, and she’s already experienced enough heartbreak to last a lifetime. As a result, she’s more than happy to keep their relationship professional. Plans change, however, when a magical emergency puts Aidyn’s life unexpectedly in Noelle’s hands. In order to keep him alive, the two friends decide to break the rules and form an unsanctioned Love Bond. Can this reluctant royal and overwhelmed Memorizer Mage find a way to move towards a future where they both thrive, or will unhealed wounds—from the past and present—tear them apart? * Read if you love: sweet, slow-burn, Friends-to-Lovers fantasy romance stories with multiple POVs, where she saves the prince but he falls first! _____________________________________________________________________________________ The Mage Bonds of Embermoore is one story told in six parts. Each part is structured to follow the general process of healing from trauma (as I have experienced it): Crisis, Aftermath, Changing Direction, Mending, New Foundations, and Rebuilding. When we experience something traumatic in our lives, our world shrinks down to the bare essentials so that we can focus on survival. The more we heal, the more our world opens up again. I’ve written this book in the same way. Each part builds off of each other, allowing you to experience the characters and world of the story expand and grow. _____________________________________________________________________________________ New chapters posted Wednesdays and Sundays!

"I beg your pardon. I should not have come. I did not mean to be a bother.” He stepped aside, extending a subtle invite. “But that is the problem.

The last thing he expected was that one kiss with a stranger would turn his world upside down. Jun-Ho was cold, dangerous, a mafia heir and scarred by a past that made him reject any kind of touch. He had never felt desire. Never wanted anyone. Until Salin. One kiss changed everything. Fear turned into craving. A frozen body stirred. But Jun-Ho didn’t know how to deal with it, so he made an offer Salin couldn’t refuse: “Pretend to be my fiancé. In return, your debt disappears.” Salin agreed. Because he had to. But also... because he wanted to. Jun-Ho’s gaze promised pleasure. His touch trembled. And Salin wanted more. But Jun-Ho wanted too, and couldn’t act on it. And that slowly tore them both apart. Salin teased, surrendered, backed off, then tried again. Jun-Ho burned, torn between fear and longing. Between panic and pleasure. And when the touch finally happened… it was too much. Intense.

Kyle has spent years learning how to be invisible. It’s easier that way — no expectations, no mistakes, no one looking too closely. And it worked. Until Darren walks in. He doesn’t force his way in or try to fix anything. He doesn’t ask Kyle to change. He just… stays — close enough to be felt, not close enough to be understood. And somehow, that’s worse. Because Kyle starts to notice things he was never supposed to notice: the silence shifting, the space between them narrowing, himself — responding. This isn’t a story about love at first sight. It’s about attention, about safety that doesn’t feel conditional — and what happens when someone becomes a place you don’t want to leave.

"If I can just stay under the radar, I might survive the final chapter." Kim Jowoon woke up in a novel world as the illegitimate fourth son of a marquis, Julian Von Astrea, and it looked like every single character hated him. It was a world where everyone looked like a protagonist—shining eyes, tragic backstories, destiny practically dripping off them. Everyone except him. He didn't even get a script. Then the Affection System popped up and crushed his hopes in one clean line of text: every so-called “hero” in the capital had a solid 0% interest in his continued existence. Naturally, Julian did the most reasonable thing possible—he ran. Straight into the safest job he could think of: tutoring the young son of the Empire's most reclusive (and famously cold) Duke. The plan was foolproof. Win over the kid, stay invisible, collect a fat paycheck, and live long enough to die of old age instead of plot relevance. It didn't go smoothly at first. The child never spoke, the Duke barely appeared, and Julian briefly wondered if he'd chosen the wrong kind of death. But somehow… it worked. The Duke's son quickly warmed up to him. Lessons became warm and fun moments, and silence turned into trust. And even stranger, the Duke's affection level didn't just rise—it skyrocketed into something Julian absolutely had not planned for. For the first time since transmigrating, he felt safe. Then the Emperor began to interfere, so much that he became a madman to Julian. Julian thought he could live quietly. Well... He thought wrong.
