Nothing goes better with tea and crumpets than corpses and monsters.

************

When seventeen-year-old Trinket escapes from Elysium Asylum, her plans for suicide are derailed by a mutant wolf and Booker Larkin, the eccentric young doctor who saves her from the monster's metal jaws.

Trinket quickly learns that Booker's medical practices are far from usual. He's taken his surgical skills to new heights by replacing human limbs with mechanical creations of his own. However, with a monstrous wolf terrorizing the sleazy city of Tinkerfall, he sets aside his gears and saws and presents Trinket with a surprising proposition: become his assistant and join him in his hunt for the beast.

With his brilliant mind and her sharp eyes, nothing can stop this quick-witted duo.

Except, perhaps, for the sins of Trinket's dark past.

It's JANE EYRE meets FRANKENSTEIN in this YA mystery series with a steampunk flair.

Book  1 of THE ELYSIUM SERIES.

Warning: this story involves mental illness and has scenes depicting anxiety attacks and PTSD, as well as suicidal thoughts.

For Those Who Don't Believe in Love Songs by david_hull

GROUNDHOG DAY mixed with SIXTEEN CANDLES and a splash of DOCTOR WHO. A boy forever reincarnated as himself meets his soulmate for the 200th time, but can she solve the puzzle and break the curse to make herself his last? ***** Martha Beckett's life is over, or so it feels after her father moves her from California to Illinois in the middle of her junior year of high school. But on her first day in her new school, she finds a peculiar boy waiting for her. James is cute, friendly, and obviously too good to be true. Her skepticism proves justified after he confides in her his secret: after he dies, he is reincarnated as himself to live his life again and again and again... Retaining all knowledge and skill acquired in his previous lives and with a general understanding of future events, James is effectively superhuman. And while Martha enjoys the inherent perks of associating with such a boy, she comes to learn of the despair and exhaustion underneath it all. With no permanent consequence or hope of release, James struggles to stave off nihilism with Martha his one tether to humanity. FOR THOSE WHO DON'T BELIEVE IN LOVE SONGS is, in fact, a love story, albeit a complicated one. Can Martha reconcile with the fact that James has loved hundreds of other Marthas before her and will most likely love hundreds thereafter? Is James' choice to engage and confide in Martha irresponsible and selfish? Would she be better off living her life unaware of the cosmic freak who has loved her for millennia?

The Island by AmyJohnson895

"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

Jane |18+| ✔️ by IMZoetic

When twenty-year-old Jane Albright arrives at the unwelcome conclusion that her life is absolutely aimless, mundane, and downright futile, she makes a rash decision to leave all she's ever known, along with her human zone, in search of a fresh start. Even being incredibly thorough, meticulous and highly wary when mapping out her road trip to the north, the astute woman unknowingly crosses into Blood Moon Territory when she accidentally runs into car trouble and the Alpha himself. Everything Jane has been taught since the ripe age of understanding the tier of her hierarchy and the superior race is either tested or outright disputed, landing her deeper into a world she never wanted to be part of. She constantly fights for her life and freedom while being played and manipulated to the point she teeters on this side of insanity. - Jane - is not your typical human who meets and falls in love with the Alpha kind of read. It's much darker, with pockets of humour and sheer sorrow. The struggle between her heart and mind is a constant brutal battle as she tries to navigate the unrelenting debacle situation she finds herself in. - Jane is a dystopian/paranormal/fictional read chock-full of twists and turns, humour and horror - oh, and a good dash of (throat clear) explicit scenes. Warning: Jane is intended for MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY |18+|. Please be advised there are many sensitive topics present throughout the story, including but not limited to: descriptive violence, strong profanity, and graphic sex scenes.

Touch: Saving Ai | ✓ by JaxCreation

[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ] Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

Vicious Fangs (Mystic Bonds #1) | COMPLETED by SkylerChase29

❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.

The Numbered Corpses (Elysium #4) by inkwellheart

Nothing goes better with tea and crumpets than corpses and monsters. ************ The final round of Benedict's twisted game begins, and Trinket and Booker are given their first clue: a corpse with a number carved into its head. As they search for a meaning behind the strange message, more bodies begin to surface, attracting the attention of less-than-savory characters. In order to keep Scales from beating them to the finish line, Trinket and Booker must make friends and enemies alike in their race to break the morbid code. However, the closer they get to finding the madman who started this insanity, the more uncertain Trinket becomes of her place in Booker's life. And with the very real threat of her past sins coming to light, she's willing to do almost anything to avoid losing the man she loves. That is, if she can keep from being dragged back to Elysium. It's JANE EYRE meets FRANKENSTEIN in this YA mystery series with a steampunk flair. Sequel to THE VAMPIRE OF TINKERFALL. Bonus novella: AH, POOR BIRD Warning: this story involves mental illness and has scenes depicting anxiety attacks and PTSD, as well as suicidal thoughts.
