Although she risks everything known and safe in her reality and decides to help figure out what has happened to the strange boy, Amy knows it in her heart -- this is something no one can ever predict.

Emilia Gillen longs to feel a sense of permanence after a lifetime of moving from one foster home to the next. She prefers to keep her head down and blend in, but when the brooding eyes of her new, mysterious foster brother keep looking her way, she doesn't mind the attention. But Cal Jones isn't the only one who notices her... The leering eyes of their perverse foster father make Emilia's skin crawl. To ensure her safety, Cal convinces her that they need to make a run for it. But soon the pair finds themselves out of options, causing them to accept help from a nefarious group in exchange for Cal's cooperation. While Cal falls deeper into the dangerous lifestyle of crime and the alluring world of drugs, Emilia realizes that the one she has deemed as her hero may be the one who needs saving. Will the love she found be enough to reach through the prison of self-loathing that Cal has caged himself in, or will it be what ruins her? ---------- ***TRIGGER WARNINGS: 18+ This book contains substance abuse, offensive language, violence, sexually explicit content, as well as some physical, verbal, and (not described) sexual abuse.

In 1826, in the country of Lwendolen, the elite Quad family stands as the upper crust and cream of society. The daughter, Valerie, is engaged to a man with a name attached to success and fortune, but her older brother Henry is mentally unstable and a failure and that is unacceptable to their father. Valerie's fiance seems like a charming man but behind that mask is another man who only cares about himself and the Quad fortune. What role will he play in the Quad family's life? On top of that, something else is working behind the scenes here. In the middle of the winter, the Quads' hidden past will soon be unearthed through murder and deceit, staining the snow crimson. ~There is no success without failure, but a Failure will never succeed.~ (Dark human drama and satire.

When Pepelito dramatically escapes certain death in a bullfight, he enrages some and delights others. Taken pity on by Rita Silvera, a caring homicide detective, he soon begins to heal from the physical and psychological torture of the bullring. But Pepelito's nightmare is not over. Javier Castella is the best matador in Spain - maybe the world. He would kill for a chance to finish his masterpiece - and he's not the only one. Because, as Rita soon learns, a serial killer is on the loose. And her love of animals might make her the next target... CW: violence, animal cruelty 16+ only Cover by @NishaPsons :) "I approve!" - Sera Drake, author of Ancilla "(hrb264) accurately describes what it means for a bull to be a victim of bullfighting. The physical pain, the fear, the agony. The bull's perspective is missing from most written bullfighting stories, making this book different and refreshing. For anyone who considers bullfighting a barbaric activity, this book also offers comfort. In addition, it is an exciting story that will keep you up until the last moment!" - Estefania Pampin Zuidmeer, campaigner CAS International Now available on Amazon: https://mybook.to/82BK2En
