Synopsis

This book is out of print.

Gerard Leon and Linda Coriola fight for the same cause. The French doctor and the Italian sculptress donate their time and money for HOPE – a clinic for children’s cancer research and treatment.
Here they meet and the magnetic attraction between them – combined with some haunting demons from her past – turns into a complicated, intense love story.
In search of a cure for cancer and armed with an innovative treatment themselves, they leave for Transylvania, that enigmatic land hidden in the heart of the Carpathians.
There they get lost and have a bizarre experience in the Hoia-Baciu forest, nicknamed The Romanian Bermuda Triangle due to all the inexplicable paranormal phenomena happening in its depths.
But no one believes them, because they don’t have any proof of said experience. Or do they?…

Rubinrot

Ehm... where am I? I'm standing Completely Naked on a small grassy Hill. The Grass almost goes up to my Hips, and all around the Hill is just a Sea of Fog. The more I look around and concentrate, the more I can see. The Fog slowly begins to clear as the Sun rises. Hidden beneath the Fog is a trampled Battlefield and bloody remains. Here and there are Bones, broken Armor, weapons and broken shields half sunken in the Mud. Some are new, and some have long begun to rust. I gasp, take a step back and fall. I look in Horror at the Carnage in Front of me.

Follow the Story of Ruby, a newborn Demon trying to fulfill their Desire in a New World filled with Magic, Wonder, and Dread.

The Drama Girl (or Precious Pearl)

★ 5.0

Occult_Samantha

A cynical surgeon gets swept into the very kind of melodramatic torture novel he mocked; only now, he’s the heroine.

Eric Chen never believed in second chances. That is, until he dies in a freak accident and wakes up in Tang Dynasty China as Yu Lian: disgraced wife, falsely accused traitor, and soon-to-be enslaved courtesan known as Bao Zhu. Stripped of his body, his profession, and his identity, he’s trapped in a world ruled by rigid gender roles, brutal power structures, and the ruthless logic of web novel tropes; especially the infamous “Torture Novel” arc: betrayal, degradation, exile… and, if she survives, rebirth.

As Bao Zhu, he must navigate brothels, political intrigue, and the painful awakening of a woman’s body and heart; while clinging to his medical knowledge, his fading memories of the woman he left behind, and the ghost of who he used to be. But survival demands more than endurance: it requires performance, intelligence, sisterhood, and eventually, vengeance. In a world that turns pain into plot, can she rewrite her own ending? Or will the story consume her entirely?

A gender-bent transmigration tale rich in historical detail, emotional nuance, and metafictional depth; where trauma, transformation, and tenderness collide.

Publishing: 1-2 chapters per day. Total 25 Chapters.

The Tyrant’s Adored Darling

Yu Shu died once, only to realize that she was nothing more than cannon fodder in an ancient tale.

In her previous life, Yu Shu was the most favored princess with the renowned war god Xiao Jingyao as her fiancé. Her status was unmatched, and no one could surpass her.

But a sudden turn of events led to Xiao Jingyao marching his army into the imperial capital, toppling the dynasty. Yu Shu became his captive, a golden caged bird in the harem.

A bowl of medicine took her life, and when she opened her eyes again, Yu Shu had transmigrated into the Ninth Princess of Xijiang, once again destined to be sent into Xiao Jingyao’s harem.

…

Reborn, Yu Shu no longer harbored any thoughts of Xiao Jingyao.

Yet, when she met Xiao Jingyao again, wearing the same face as her previous life, her veil slipped, revealing her features. What she saw was Xiao Jingyao’s incredulous expression, followed by a suppressed, tender whisper, “Yu Shu…”

…

Emperor Xiao Jingyao had one true love, but sadly, his love was dead—a painful, irreversible wound in his heart.

Xiao Jingyao’s harem was empty, and he lived a life of abstinence. No woman who tried to climb into his bed ever succeeded.

Until the Ninth Princess of Xijiang entered the palace. Xiao Jingyao’s demeanor changed drastically. He doted on her excessively, demanding her presence by his side every day and even naming the child she bore as the crown prince.

Everyone said it was all because of her face. Yushu covered her face: in truth, it was her soul that won him over.

Daniel Schinhofen

Sean and his Bonded settled in Hearthglen to learn, train, and grow. Taking on an apprentice, setting up his shop, and Bonding both Chastity and Andrea to him, Sean felt like he would finally be able to learn about this world and try his hand at new things.

Sean stepped on some toes as he tried to find his place in the city, but by ignoring conventions, he friended smith and Shaper alike, forging friendships across the divide. The newly formed alliance discovered common ground when opposition rose up to hinder them.

Sean never anticipated the assassins that came for him and his Bonded. With Ida paralyzed and Ryann killed in front of him, Sean lashed out. He killed the attackers, healed Ida, and pulled Ryann back to the world of the living.
Guards rushing toward them, Sean had decisions to make— ones that could shake the very foundations of Hearthglen, and maybe the world.

(This work contains adult situations that some might find offensive, the least of which is graphic sex. This book is about an Overpowered MC, and contains a harem. You’ve been warned.)

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

★ 4.24

Stephen Chbosky

standing on the fringes of life...
offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see
what it looks like from the dance floor.

This haunting novel about the dilemma of passivity vs. passion marks the stunning debut of a provocative new voice in contemporary fiction: The Perks of Being A WALLFLOWER

This is the story of what it's like to grow up in high school. More intimate than a diary, Charlie's letters are singular and unique, hilarious and devastating. We may not know where he lives. We may not know to whom he is writing. All we know is the world he shares. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it puts him on a strange course through uncharted territory. The world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends. The world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that the perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite.

Through Charlie, Stephen Chbosky has created a deeply affecting coming-of-age story, a powerful novel that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller coaster days known as growing up.
