    A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers. ***** It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life. [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]

Because Luke-Cynthia's first almost-love, her once-safe place-is now dating the woman Marcus left her for. Vanessa. Everyone's moved on. Everyone... except her. When old sparks flare and buried secrets rise, Cynthia must choose: closure... or a second chance at the love she never forgot. Four hearts, two betrayals, and one question: can love survive what time tried to erase?

    After being rejected by her husband and Alpha in front of half the werewolf world, Allison does the only thing left that makes sense- she walks away. Heartbroken but unbowed, she rebuilds from the ground up, turning her experience as a Luna into something new: Luna's Compass, a consultancy that fixes the messes other packs are too proud to admit they made. No attachments. No politics. No pity. But fate has a sense of humor. Her newest client, Gordon Hale, is a widowed Alpha raising three daughters and holding his pack together by sheer will. What starts as a six-month contract becomes something far more complicated- professionally, politically, and painfully personal. Between grief, politics, and the slow burn of something she swore she'd never feel again, Allison must learn that fate isn't about who you're tied to - It's about who you become when the bond breaks.

He was sleeping with the one person she trusted more than anyone: her best friend since childhood, Celeste. For three years, Celeste held Mara while she cried about her crumbling marriage.

As Mara unravels the lies and discovers just how deep the deception runs, she must decide: Does she let this destroy her or does she rebuild herself into someone they'll never see coming?

    Valerie Reynolds has built her life on control. Married at eighteen to her childhood best friend. A cornerstone of the USWNT. Disciplined. Private. Untouchable. Her image is flawless. What no one knows - not the media, not her fans, not even most of her teammates - is that she has a husband. Only their families and a handful of her closest friends are aware of the marriage she keeps carefully out of the public eye. No pictures. No interviews. No ring on display. When FC Barcelona offers her a contract, Val doesn't just see opportunity. She sees distance. An ocean between her and the expectations that have shaped her since she was eighteen - before she understood who she was, before she allowed herself to question what she wanted. Barcelona is supposed to be professional. Temporary. Controlled. Then she meets Mapi León. Fearless. Unapologetic. Alive. Mapi doesn't believe in half-truths or carefully constructed walls. She doesn't flinch when Val keeps her distance. She doesn't look away when Val's mask slips. And for the first time in years, someone sees through the name on her jersey - and into the woman beneath it. Val tells herself she can control it. The distance. The pull. The way her heart feels lighter around Mapi. Until her husband shows up unannounced - claiming Val as his wife in front of her entire team. And suddenly, the life Valerie Reynolds built begins to crack. Because Mapi doesn't make her feel safe. She makes her feel alive. And for the first time, Val has to decide: Stay loyal to the life she chose at eighteen. Or finally choose herself.
