A girl went missing last summer… and came back different.

Linden has no memory of what happened the night she disappeared into the forest. Just fragments, nightmares, and the feeling that something isn’t right.

Now, a year later, it’s happening again.

Another girl is gone. But this time, she doesn’t come back.

As the town spirals, Linden is forced to confront what really happened — and what might still be out there.
Because some things in Caball Hollow don’t stay buried.

Dark, atmospheric, and just the right amount of unsettling.

Rowan James doesn’t trust easily.

When you can smell lies on people’s breath, you learn very quickly that no one is exactly who they seem.

So when Hadrian Fitch lands on her doorstep — hurt, desperate, and full of half-truths — she knows better than to believe him.

But something bigger is happening in Caball Hollow. Things are going missing. Rumours of a monster are spreading. And the truth is slipping further out of reach.

Now Rowan has to decide: keep her walls up, or risk everything to find answers.

Dark, eerie, and full of tension — this one will keep you guessing.

is the one that feels the most real. ✨

Moremi has always believed in the dragon gods.

They’ve protected her kingdom for as long as anyone can remember. But when their power is tampered with, everything changes — fast.

Now monsters are real. The world is shifting. And somehow, Moremi is at the centre of it all.

With a mysterious prince standing in her way and her past catching up to her, she’ll have to decide who to trust… and what she’s willing to risk.

Because if she fails, it’s not just her future on the line — it’s everything.

An epic, mythology-rich fantasy with real heart and seriously high stakes.

She loved him on screen.
He can’t stand her in real life. 😭

But between awkward run-ins, on-set tension, and undeniable chemistry…

This “rivalry” is starting to feel a lot like flirting. 👀✨

What if love shows up when you’re convinced it’s not meant for you?

Ronan Wentz has spent years trying to outrun who he is — the anger, the past, the things he’s done.

A second chance gives him something to hold onto… but he’s still walking a fine line.

Then he meets Shiloh.

She looks like she has everything together — but she’s carrying her own weight, her own need to prove she’s enough.

Neither of them believes in happy endings. Not for people like them.

But some connections don’t ask for permission.
E
Emotional, intense, and impossible to look away from — this is for the romance readers who want a little more edge.
