Kalia knows that only one person has truly understood her. The problem is that she freaking hates the guy. She's not alone in that, because he hates her as well. The feud between Kalia and Lorenzo wasn't always a feud. They weren't always at each other's throats. They're the only two who know this, though. Is it hate? Or a mutual violent obsession? The specifics don't matter to them. They want each other dead. But working together for years, knowing intimately how the other functions, it doesn't get them anywhere. It's hard to kill someone who knows your every move. They work well together, despite any and all ill-feelings. The job comes first. They were trained well. One mission they get assigned changes everything for them. Not only are they assigned to work together, but suddenly, the one sure thing in their lives - the system they were trained to trust - turns on them. What happens when they're targeted by the government they work for? It leaves them with no one to turn to but each other. They'll have to trust each other to survive. They have to put their hate for each other aside and focus on the real enemy. It doesn't take them long after they've put aside their differences to figure out that the feeling in their chest they mistook as loathing was love. ------------------------------------------------------------------- cover by @JaelynnMoore started: 5/23/2021. restarted: 01/03/2024 published: completed:

In the war-ravaged territory of Cadence, Olivia has spent her life hidden in the shadows-she's the secret her homeland cannot afford to lose. But no one has ever told her why. Years after the war's end, Vorrath, their relentless enemy, still casts a menacing shadow over Cadence.

Disguised as one of them, she infiltrates Vorrath, enrolling in their elite academy deep within enemy territory. Amid Vorrath's walls, Olivia searches for answers and uncovers truths about the war-secrets that not only threaten her survival but shatter everything she thought she knew about her homeland and herself. Her path collides with Tristan Hudson, a handsome yet dangerous academy trainer who happens to be the son of Vorrath's ruthless president.

As she navigates life at the academy, it becomes evident there's something very different about her, something she won't be able to hide for long. Loyalties fracture, forbidden emotions ignite, and Olivia realizes she is more than just a hidden secret-she is the key to everything. All she wanted was freedom-but now, she'll have to fight to survive in a world where betrayal and revelation could cost her everything. *** I waited until it was COMPLETE and published the whole book for you. :) ENJOY!!!! #romantasy #fantasy #romance #youngadult #newadult #slowburn #enemiestolovers #magic

The Secrets We Bury by pradabagg

*READ "How to be a Heartbreaker" AND "Kings Conquer" FIRST!* At Blackthorn University, The Revenants rule the school. Ten dangerously captivating men whose power is unmatched, they dictate who rises, who falls, and who disappears. Feared by their enemies and worshipped by everyone else, they are bound by loyalty, secrets, and a dark past. But even kings have weaknesses, and for The Revenants, it's the women who challenge their control. Some are ghosts from their past, others are new forces shaking their world, but each one has the power to unravel the carefully constructed empires they've built. In a world where love can be a weapon and betrayal is inevitable, the bonds they form threaten to destroy everything. As buried truths rise to the surface and alliances fracture, the game at Blackthorn becomes deadlier than ever. Trust is a dangerous gamble, and power always comes with a price. In the end, it's not just the secrets they've buried that could destroy them-but the people they've let in.

The White Falcon by blutgreen

The wars are over, finally peace reigns. At least that is what everyone believes. Deep in a region known only as Darkspace; where no sun shines and nothing is thought to live, an ancient evil known as the Master is stirring once more. To Alexander Steddard, a young man about to turn 18, this is unknown. All he seeks to do is avoid the national draft by joining a religious order known as the White Falcons. He does not believe in their god, nor does he believe in the Master; the enemy of the White Falcons. However, his lack of belief will not prevent him from joining this order, nor will it stop events from unfolding that will put him and his new friends in the middle of the greatest war yet. For the forces of evil are coming and their presence will signal the start of a titanic clash between good and evil that will decide the fate of all.

Walking Towards Hades by IamMarella

Aliana never believed in myths-until the day they came to life. When the ancient Greek gods' sacred tribes reveal their existence to her, she learns her destiny is far from ordinary: she is the heir to the throne of Alphenia, a tribe charged with protecting the human world from mythical creatures. But fate is never simple and love is unpredictable; it knows no dividing lines and your other half may be hiding in the most unlikely place or even... in the face of your rival. For Aliana that is the case. When she meets Hector, the magnetic and enigmatic heir to Arenia-the rival tribe her people have battled for centuries- forbidden love and her duty to her tribe collide. What is her fate after all? Is it what she's been told or something different? Could she be walking toward Hades without even knowing?

We Stood on Sunset Hill by JoshuaMichaelRamirez

Eight years ago... A chilling secret was buried deep within the government's shadows-a secret so immense it could shatter the fabric of reality. Earth was on the brink of a cataclysm, and only a few knew the truth. John, an elite agent, couldn't live with the weight of it. He chose to defy his orders, vowing to warn his family before it was too late. But as he reached out to them, he was caught. The truth was silenced. His desperate message, unfinished and lost, faded into oblivion. Present day... It's a quiet Friday evening. The sky is painted with the fading colors of sunset as Bucky and his friends gather at their usual spot-Sunset Hill. It's a tradition in their small town, a chance to unwind and watch the world slip into darkness. But tonight, something is different. As the last sliver of sun disappears, Clair's sharp eyes catch a strange red light flickering in the forest across town. With adrenaline coursing through their veins, they venture into the unknown, drawn to the mysterious glow. What they find is more than they ever expected. In the depths of the woods, they stumble upon a forgotten secret: a trail of clues left behind by someone who once fought to protect the truth. Among the debris, a letter was found with the name "John Ketterman" etched into it. Who was John? Why did he disappear? And more importantly, will Bucky and his friends be able to find his family before the end of the world? The answers are buried in the dark corners of their town, waiting to be uncovered, as four friends find themselves caught in a race against time... and toward an impending disaster that no one is prepared for. The world as they know it is on the edge of unraveling-and only they can stop it, if they can survive long enough to piece it all together.

His FireLily - (His Fleurette's Secrets #2) by LosMarino

Carissa Belfiore's mission was simple; hunt down the man terrorising her city and burn his syndicate's web of deceptions to the ground. The catch though? She must work together with the devil in disguise. 𐀔𐀔𐀔 Four months after the trail went dark, Cara and her team gain a second chance at retribution, at tracking down the man responsible for the mysterious chain of disappearances plaguing the streets of her town. Retribution, though, comes at a cost. Missing people and stolen identities unsolved, Cara's boss presents to her with a new ultimatum. She must pursue this mission with Asrea's top (infuriating) agent or lose the rights to the case. With no other choice, Cara must learn to thread the thin line of peace with the devil disguised as a federal agent, one who has little belief in patience and even less so for mistakes. Much like everything else though, it was easier said than done. As the two of them begin to dismantle the empire brick by brick, Cara finds herself pulling at loose strings tying the pieces of the missing puzzles connecting her past to her present. Strings, she soon realises, had been buried by the hands of someone desperately trying to keep her from finding out the truth. A truth that might just break her. No retrogrades, no reversals, and no unknowing the known. If only she could've done it alone, for even the devil must be paid his dues. The devil whose icy, blue eyes never fail to see through every shield and every shadow she'd built around her heart, the very shadows that seem to calm within his presence. The man whose icy rage threatens to thaw her blazing heart. 𐀔𐀔𐀔 First Draft Completed on 12/1/2025 Completed on 12/3/2025
