Savage Heart
Sia woke up from a coma after seven months, only to discover that she was the only sister of a Mafia overlord. Due to amnesia, she didn't recall all of her memories, but one thing she couldn't forget was how her father was murdered on her birthday by their enemies. This memory plagued her with nightmares every night, terrifying her.
Driven by the desire for revenge, she believed that avenging her father's death might free her from the darkness that engulfed her. Thus, she embarked on a quest for vengeance. However, she was unaware that the four men she killed were not the ones responsible for her father's murder; they were merely pawns. In the underworld, everyone knew the name of the true culprit, but no one knew what he looked like, making it extremely difficult for Sia to find someone who existed only by name.
One day, however, he appeared in her apartment like a ghost. He looked at her and said, "Aren't you looking for me? I'm here now, Little vermin.’
‘Who the hell are you?’
With a sly smirk lingering on his face, he answered. ‘I’m your sweet nightmare, Little vermin. I give both sweet and lethal nightmares your experience every night.’

“MATE!”
“NO!”

Moonlit Temptation: Fated to be his
Nia, after losing the man she loved—Ares—to a sacrifice she didn’t deserve, Nia’s life ended in guilt and heartbreak. But death isn’t her escape. Instead, the Moon Goddess Selene offers her a deal: live again in the bodies of women who met tragic ends, rewrite their stories, and fill a glowing necklace with enough energy to bring Ares’s soul back.
There’s just one catch: Ares’s soul, it’s shattered, scattered across the worlds she’ll enter, hidden in the men who make her heart race and her pulse pound.
From forbidden kisses with a nobleman who knows too much, to heated nights in a warrior’s tent, and the tender touch of an artist who paints her like he’s worshiping her body, every life brings her closer to completing her mission—and losing herself to desire.
But as the necklace glows brighter, the truth becomes harder to ignore: these men aren’t just strangers. They’re pieces of Ares, tempting her to fall in love all over again.
Will Nia bring back the man she lost, or will the fragments of him in every lover leave her longing for more than one lifetime can handle?

Frequently Asked Questions
I finished 'Lingering Soul' a while back, and that ending has stuck with me precisely because it refuses to be simple. The protagonist's choice, that final act of release, felt earned but also devastatingly quiet. It’s not about tying up every loose end with a neat bow; it’s about resolving the core emotional conflict—the soul’s reason for lingering. We get closure on that front, but the aftermath for the living characters is left more open, like a window cracked after a storm.
Some readers might want more concrete answers about the secondary character’s fate, but for me, the ambiguity there strengthens the main theme. The soul’s journey is over, but life for everyone else just… continues, messily. The last paragraph, with the description of the empty room and the sunlight finally reaching a corner it hadn’t touched in years—that image was more satisfying than any expository dialogue could have been. It lands with a quiet, melancholic finality that fits the whole book’s mood perfectly.
