The Chemistry of Healing

Olivia Hartwell is a scientist, not a hero. After a mysterious catastrophe tears her from modern England and strands her in the kingdom of Eldenoor, Olivia finds herself trapped in a world of magic, prophecy, and looming civil war. The first problem is survival. The second is finding a way home. Neither should involve treating wounded soldiers, arguing with healers, or questioning centuries of accepted medical knowledge. Yet as Olivia searches for answers, she discovers that healing magic can close wounds and mend broken bones while people still die from infection, disease, and poor care. For a scientist trained to look for causes rather than symptoms, the inconsistencies are impossible to ignore. Travelling with a company raising support for a prince seeking to reclaim his stolen kingdom, Olivia becomes entangled in a conflict she never wanted. Along the way she finds friendship, purpose, and reasons to care about a world she never intended to stay in. But some wounds leave scars no magic can erase. ________________________________________ A character-driven portal fantasy featuring medicine, magic, political intrigue, slow-burn romance, and the collision of scientific thinking with a world shaped by magic. Updates Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

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.
