The Intern He Hates
Luca West has everything: the fame, the fans, the flawless image Fisher Group built for him. What nobody knows is the price he's still paying for it — and he intends to keep it that way. Then his manager brings in an intern. Noelle Auclair isn't here for the glamour. She's spent years quietly obsessed with one question: how does a man like Luca West get made? Her thesis depends on getting close enough to find out. She just never planned on him deciding, the moment he sees her, that she's a spy sent to destroy him. He wants her gone. She needs to stay. And neither of them expected the two of them figuring out the truth about the other would feel like anything but war. A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance set behind the glass walls of the entertainment industry's most ruthless empire — where every smile is a performance, and the one person who sees through his isn't supposed to be looking at all.

Esmeria

The World Forgot My Name
Stars are disappearing, and nobody remembers they ever existed. Across the universe, entire stars vanish without a trace. No explosions, no warnings. One night, they are there. The next, the sky looks as though they never existed at all. Far above an endless sea of clouds, a boy named Kael spends his nights drawing the stars. He doesn't know why he does it, only that he feels an odd sense of loss whenever he looks at the sky. Then one night, he watches a star disappear, and a strange thought crosses his mind. He has seen this happen before. Kael doesn't understand the dreams that follow, the strange symbols that keep appearing in his drawings, or why a mysterious girl seems to know more about him than she should. But as the Silent Rift, an ancient scar in the fabric of reality, begins to stir after centuries of silence, he finds himself caught in something far bigger than he can imagine. Somewhere beyond the stars, forgotten beings are beginning to awaken. The Thirteen Primordial Fragments hold secrets tied to the very beginning of existence, while an entity known only as ZERO watches events unfold from the shadows. And somehow, Kael is connected to all of it. The more he searches for answers, the more he begins to question his own memories, his identity, and the world around him. Because if the universe is truly being erased, then why does it feel as though it is trying so desperately to forget him? And what will happen when it finally remembers?

Brothers of Light and darkness: “The Struggle for Balance”
This is not a story about good versus evil. It is a story about what happens when good people stay silent. In a world decaying under greed, corruption, and moral compromise, two brothers are chosen to stand at the center of a celestial war between the god Irah and the demon king Zahar. But divine battles are only a reflection of a deeper truth: Darkness does not win because it is powerful. It wins because people allow it to. Lucian carries both mercy and ruthlessness within him. Hito carries a hope that refuses to be extinguished. Together, they are forced to confront a reality few are willing to face: Light without action is meaningless. Power without integrity is corruption. Hope without courage is illusion. Seven celestial angels defend crumbling nations — yet even heaven cannot save a world that refuses responsibility. Balance is not about harmony. Balance is about choosing to stand up when it would be safer to kneel. When injustice spreads… When corruption feels normal… When silence feels easier… Who are you?

Fallout Odyssey
No one remembers how it started. By the time it mattered, it no longer did. The War had dragged on for years. Borders were redrawn in blood and cities were emptied, until the nations of the world, desperate for an ending, reached for the weapons they had sworn never to use. Nuclear fire lit the skies, engineered plagues drifted on the wind. For a moment it seemed to have worked, and the fighting stopped, but the poisoning didn't. Plants grew twisted, animals turned into things that had no names and people changed too, though never in the same way. Some were untouched, some went mad, many simply died. The lucky few who changed differently woke to find something new inside them, a power unlike anyone else’s. They called these gifts Manifests, no two ever alike. The world that rose from the ashes of that war would come to be known as The Fallout.

Healer's Touch (Deadly Touch book 1)
Llew’s father disappeared when she was eleven, leaving her orphaned, as far as she knew. Since then, Llew has learned to survive the streets of the gold-mining town of Cheer – full of opportunistic men and desperation. It’s a hard existence made tougher when Llew's so-called friend accuses her of murder, sending her to the gallows. Llew’s Aenuk ability to absorb life means she doesn’t stay dead for long, but she does leave a trail of death behind her. Escaping the hangman’s noose sees Llew fall into the hands of Jonas: the man with the knife and the Karan power to kill Llew’s kind. If Llew can nurture the attraction he develops for her, maybe she can keep that knife from her heart. But lurking in the shadows is Jonas’s half-brother, Braph: the man who has learned to combine Aenuk and Karan powers into infinite and addictive magical potential. Healer's Touch is a fantasy novel flavoured with a wild west setting, steampunk-like technology, enough romance to draw you in, horror to keep you hooked, and just enough sex to keep things spicy. The Deadly Touch Series: Healer's Touch Warrior's Touch Magician's Touch *May count as Romantasy, but the spice is pretty middling. Goes into dark themes, including torture & rape, but never between the main couple. The first chapters are brutal, but I had to start Llew off somewhere …

Levi drops into Shibuya on the worst night imaginable—with no cursed energy, no sorcerer pedigree, and two relics from another world. The Dog Talisman makes him unaging and nearly impossible to kill.

A gray mist soon links him to other Levis: Jujutsu Levi in the cursed battlefield, Night City Levi with cyberware and street-born instincts, Wizarding Levi with spellcraft, and Marvel-Vought Levi surviving a world of heroes, corporations, and monsters. Their memories and powers bleed together, merging talisman magic, cursed energy, cybernetics, and sorcery into a path no canon script can predict.

He will exploit every loophole, protect the people he chooses, and discover how far an immortal body can evolve when he learns to breathe dragon fire.
