Amelia_em
At Haul Academy, an elite coastal boarding school where moonlit gardens hide deadly secrets, the most dangerous lessons are learned after dark. When restless senior Rossie Carter trespasses into the school’s forbidden garden, she discovers Eli, an enigmatic man bound by a centuries-old curse. Their bond awakens a latent power within Rossie, making her the new Moonlight Bearer—the reluctant guardian of a sentient garden that blossoms with the truths and fears of all who enter. But a shadowy occult group is on the hunt, seeking ancient relics to unleash a mind-controlling entity upon the world. Led by the ruthless Mia and Tom, their campaign of terror escalates from ritual attacks to brazen kidnappings, shattering the school's illusion of safety. As the war spills from haunted woods into the town, the battle becomes terrifyingly personal. Rossie’s old crush, Michael, is consumed by a cursed artifact, turning him into a rampaging monster. Her friend Angela is caught in a web of family betrayal, targeted by the very cult her own mother secretly supports. With her circle of friends fractured by suspicion and possession, Rossie must master the garden’s power to fight a war on two fronts: against the occultists threatening her world, and against the darkness consuming the people she loves. To break the curse and save them all, she may have to sacrifice everything. At Haul Academy, every secret is a weapon, every friendship is a liability, and the battle for its soul has just begun.

Vampire Diaries: Jeremy big little brother

When Jeremy awakens with the memories of his past life, he finally understands the truth: the world of Mystic Falls is nothing but a stage, and the Gilbert family exists solely to serve the grand love stories of vampires and doppelgängers. He knows every scheme Klaus will weave. He knows every sacrifice Elena will make. He knows Jenna will die a brutal death, a mere plot device to make the heroes sad for one episode. No more. If this world runs on blood and desire, then Jeremy Gilbert will rewrite the rules. The doppelgänger prophecy? He’ll use it as a leash. The Original vampires? He’ll turn their immortality into his personal guard dogs. The witches who whisper about balance? They’ll learn to balance his will. And the two women bound to him by blood and name? Jenna Sommers — the sweet, self-sacrificing aunt who gave up her youth to raise him. The original plot left her as nothing but a sacrificial lamb. Jeremy plans to give her a much darker, much more personal purpose. Elena Gilbert — the perfect older sister, the heroine of this twisted story, the object of every vampire’s obsession. They all worship her from a distance. Jeremy knows that to truly conquer, you don’t worship the idol—you pull it down from its pedestal and claim it. This is a tale of a reborn hunter who uses his knowledge of the future as the ultimate weapon—tearing down the fragile moral walls of “family,” stripping away the titles of “aunt” and “sister,” and forging them into something far more satisfying. 【Warning】 Mature themes, boundary-breaking relationships, and a protagonist who takes what he wants. Read at your own risk.

SECOND CHANCE SUMMER

Faith Williams never planned to return to the place that once held her happiest memories and her deepest heartbreak. After a painful betrayal that changed everything she believed about love, Sade chooses distance over healing. But when life forces her back to a quiet coastal town for the summer, she’s determined to keep things simple: work, breathe, and leave her past where it belongs. No emotions. No attachments. No risks. Then she meets him. John Cleff is a calm, reserved man who has built his life around responsibility, not romance. As the owner of a modest beach side resort, he’s more comfortable fixing broken things than dealing with emotions—especially his own. Love, to him, is unpredictable, and he has learned the hard way not to rely on it. But Faith is different. What starts as a casual encounter slowly turns into something neither of them expected. In the warmth of the summer sun, guarded conversations turn into laughter, distance turns into closeness, and two broken hearts begin to find comfort in each other. Yet, the past refuses to stay buried. When old wounds reopen and painful truths come to light, Sade is forced to confront the fear she has been running from, while John must decide whether love is worth the risk of being hurt again. As the summer draws to an end, they are faced with a choice—walk away to protect their hearts or fight for a love that could change everything. Because sometimes… the hardest part of love is giving it a second chance.
