Belonging in an Ivy League but through a twist of misfortune, stuck in a community college pre-law program, Mallory’s doing her best to minimize the misfortune she brings to those in close proximity.

Lizzie Hardwicke has learned to escape her history and survive the perilous streets of Soho within the walls of Mrs Farley’s Bawdy House, a reputable brothel. But entertaining wealthy customers may not be so profitable when one of them is brutally murdered after a night with her.

Lizzie must escape the investigator Davenport’s suspicious eye by solving the murder herself. But the deeper she goes, the more bodies pile up.

Famous In Love

Dating a K-pop idol is a sweet kind of chaos — all glitter, secrecy, and missed flights wrapped in late-night confessions.

It means loving someone whose life belongs to schedules and spotlights, where dates happen backstage, kisses are stolen between performances, and privacy is a luxury. Yet behind the perfect smiles are people who hoard snacks, make impulsive confessions, and fall in love just as messily as anyone else.

In Famous in Love, secret dressing-room romances, loophole proposals, and chaotic meet-cutes unfold across the industry—from idols hiding relationships from managers to long-distance fiancés navigating exhaustion, fame, and longing. Some love stories begin with shared fandom obsessions, others with midnight convenience-store encounters, but all are shaped by one truth: love in the spotlight is fragile, funny, and fiercely protected.

Because loving a K-pop idol isn’t just about glamour.

It’s about choosing each other through distance, scandal, and silence — again and again, until the stage lights fade and what remains is simply love.

As danger looms and secrets unravel, Kathryn has a choice in front of her—embrace the extraordinary or lose herself to the madness of it all. But one thing is for sure; she must trust Alexander to protect her life and her heart. But can she trust him with the truth of who she’s becoming?

Freeing Madame X

Escape has never felt like an option. Until him.

For years, she has lived under the control of Dave Compton—the arrogant, possessive son of the man who owns the town as surely as he owns its people. To Dave, she is obedience personified, a body to claim and a will to break.

Until…

Raphael is the magnetic artist who has it all, fame, charm, money—everything except her. An artist who sees more than what Shanaya’s been reduced to. With him, she begins to imagine a life beyond survival. A self beyond submission—showered with passionate love.

Desire, for the first time, feels like a choice rather than a demand. Lust takes the centre stage as they are both drawn to each other, knowing very well about the risks involved.

Will Madame X finally claim her own pleasure?

Or will Dave refuse to let her go?

Peculiar Occurrences in the 18th Century Town of Sillyshire

Set in the windswept coastal town of Goodwood, Peculiar Occurrences in the 18th Century Town of Sillyshire begins with a romance that was never meant to survive.

Henrietta, dreamy and misunderstood, falls for the troubled and obsessive Burton. In 1742, their story ends in horror when she plunges from a cliff into the roaring sea—her body never recovered, her death transforming instantly into myth.

A year later, Henrietta returns. Alive. Unchanged. And yet entirely other.

Drawn from the ocean with an eerie calm and impossible beauty, she mesmerizes the townspeople who once pitied or mocked her. Soon, fear gives way to devotion. Whispers of miracles spread. Offerings are made. And then the sacrifices begin. Those given to the sea do not simply die—they transform, joining Henrietta in a strange underwater kingdom that grows stronger with each passing week.

As Goodwood empties and the line between hysteria and faith dissolves, the town must confront an unsettling truth: is Henrietta a monster born of tragedy, or a queen forged by collective guilt and longing?

Blending gothic folklore, dark humour, and creeping cosmic horror, this novel explores how easily communities surrender to legend—and how quickly love can evolve into worship.

Gather round. This is a story worth hearing.

Sunburn

Sunburn is an astute and tender portrayal of first love, adolescent anxiety and the realities of growing up in a small town where tradition holds people tightly in its grasp.

It’s the early 1990s, and in the Irish village of Crossmore, Lucy feels out of place. Despite her fierce friendships, she’s always felt this way, and the conventional path of marriage and motherhood doesn’t appeal to her at all. Not even with handsome and doting Martin, her closest childhood friend. Lucy begins to make sense of herself during a long hot summer, when a spark with her school friend Susannah escalates to an all-consuming infatuation, and, very quickly, to a desperate and devastating love.

Fearful of rejection from her small and conservative community, Lucy begins living a double life, hiding the most honest parts of herself in stolen moments with Susannah.

But with the end of school and the opportunity to leave Crossmore looming, Lucy must choose between two places, two people and two futures, each as terrifying as the other. But only one can offer her real happiness.

An atmospheric sapphic love story and coming-of-age novel with the intensity of Megan Nolan’s Acts of Desperation, the long hot summer of André Aciman’s Call Me By Your Name and the female friendships of Anna Hope’s Expectation.
