Because once the line is crossed, there's no going back. Passion ignites. Old emotions resurface. And suddenly, everything—loyalty, friendship, and the safety of their past—is at risk.

Amelia Carter has always believed that some lines exist for a reason. At twenty-one, she is focused on finishing university, working late evenings as a library assistant, and keeping her life quiet and predictable. Love is the last thing on her mind until Ethan Brooks walks into her world and turns everything upside down. Ethan is confident, guarded, and completely forbidden. Their connection is instant, undeniable, and dangerous in ways Amelia never expected. What begins as harmless conversations and stolen glances slowly deepens into something intense something neither of them should want, yet cannot resist. As emotions grow and boundaries blur, Amelia is forced to confront a painful truth: the heart does not obey rules. With secrets threatening to surface, loyalties tested, and consequences closing in, loving Ethan may cost her everything she has worked so hard to protect. Love They Shouldn’t Have is a slow-burn, emotionally charged forbidden romance that explores desire, restraint, and the aching question of what happens when loving the wrong person feels more right than anything else.

Held Light, Held Close follows Celeste Bradbury, a quiet, disciplined young woman who arrives in New York to work with the world-famous band Luminous Riot. Raised in the hush of convent halls and foster homes, Celeste has learned to survive by moving gently, listening closely, and building her life out of small, steadfast rituals. But the music world is loud, chaotic, and unkind—especially under the sharp eye of Paul Logan, the band’s volatile lead singer who meets her composure with relentless mockery. As weeks turn into months, Celeste maintains her quiet routines, her faith, and her dignity despite the storm around her. She becomes a still point in the band’s restless orbit—an anchor none of them expected, and a mirror that reveals what each member is running from. Through rehearsals, touring, backstage politics, deadlines, and private battles the world never sees, Celeste’s presence begins to shape the group in ways that defy explanation. The House She Built is a story of chosen family, slow-burn transformation, unspoken tenderness, and the quiet power of a woman who refuses to break—even when the world demands it. It is about the sanctuary we build within ourselves, and the imperfect people we let inside.

"What do you want from me?" he asks, staring at the woman who transforms from an exquisite, perplexing beauty into sexual temptation. "I want you to kill me." “You’re already dead, strigoi.” As he clutches the doorknob, her voice caresses his ears — “I want true death.” Her tone softens, too alluring to refuse. “And only you can give it to me, WOLF.” When an outcast vampiress meets the most desired Alpha CEO in the city, there should have been bloodshed. Fate, on the other hand, has different plans for them. Wolves, vampires, and the entire supernatural underworld will come between them.

Zehn Jahre nach unserer Hochzeit postete meine ehemalige beste Freundin ein Foto. Ihre Tochter wurde von ihr im Arm gehalten, mein Sohn von meinem Mann. Alle vier drängten sich eng aneinander, darunter stand: „Könnte man das nicht als eine perfekte kleine Familie mit Sohn und Tochter bezeichnen?“ Ich kommentierte darunter: „Was für ein perfektes Bild.“ Im nächsten Moment hatte sie den Beitrag bereits gelöscht. Am nächsten Tag stürmte mein Mann nach Hause und fragte mich: „Sophie geht es endlich etwas besser, warum musst du sie schon wieder provozieren?“ Mein Sohn schubste mich und warf mir vor: „Das ist alles deine Schuld! Jetzt weint sogar die kleine Emma.“ Ich knallte ihnen die Scheidungspapiere vor die Nase: „Ja, meine Schuld. Also mache ich, dass ich wegkomme. Dann habt ihr eure perfekte Viererfamilie.“

Ich hatte zugestimmt, mit Lucien die Zentrale Wolfsakademie zu verlassen. Weil er behauptet hatte, dort schikaniert zu werden. Mit achtzehn noch immer ohne Erwachen war er an einer Akademie, an der Blutlinie und Stärke über allem standen, von Anfang an ein Außenseiter. Also flehte er mich an, mit ihm zu gehen und an eine gewöhnlichere Schule zu wechseln, an der Herkunft nicht über das ganze Leben entschied. Einen Tag bevor wir die Versetzung endgültig festmachen wollten, suchte ich ihn auf. Kaum stand ich vor der Tür, hörte ich drinnen Stimmen. Einer seiner Beta-Gefährten lachte spöttisch auf. „Respekt, Lucien. Du hast ihr echt vorgespielt, dass man dich an der Zentralen Akademie schikaniert, nur damit sie für dich von dort verschwindet.“ Eine andere Stimme klang zögernd. „Ihr seid schließlich zusammen aufgewachsen. Willst du sie wirklich einfach so gehen lassen?“ Lucien antwortete ohne zu zögern. Seine Stimme klang gelassen, beinahe amüsiert. „Sie geht ja nicht sonst wohin. Ihr wird schon nichts passieren.“ Dann wurde seine Stimme kälter. „Seit wir Kinder sind, hängt sie an mir wie ein Schatten. Langsam ging sie mir auf die Nerven. So werde ich sie auf einmal los. Ist doch praktisch.“ Ich stürmte nicht hinein, um ihn zur Rede zu stellen. Ich drehte mich einfach um und ging. Zurück in meinem Zimmer öffnete ich den Versetzungsantrag noch einmal. Ich strich den Namen der gewöhnlichen Werwolf-Akademie, die er angeblich so dringend brauchte, und trug stattdessen den Namen jener Schule ein, auf die meine Eltern schon vor Jahren bestanden hatten. Offenbar hatten alle eine Sache vergessen. Ich bin die einzige Erbin des Blutmond-Rudels. Lucien ist nichts weiter als der geduldete uneheliche Sohn des Silberkamm-Alphas. Ohne eine offizielle Bindung an mich würde er in diesem Leben niemals den Alpha-Thron besteigen. Eines Tages würde er begreifen, dass er nicht nur meine Zuneigung von sich gestoßen hatte.
