    Summary

    In Jackson, survival is built on rules - spoken and unspoken.

    Nashira was taught to lower her gaze, to obey, to fear desire.

    But when Joel Miller arrives, carrying a past stained with blood and silence, she begins to question whether sin is something taught... or something felt.

    Summary

    “You seem tense.”

    You peek your eyes open at him, realising that your body had become as hard and firm as a brick wall.

    “N-no, I'm great,” You say before squeezing your eyes shut again, unable to look at his handsome face any longer.

    He chuckles softly, and the sound skims down your spine like velvet. “Sure doesn’t feel like it,” he says, voice dipping a little too low to be innocent. His hands hover just above your ribs now, and your breath hitches again, your whole body wound tight like a coil.

    “If you keep holding yourself like that,” he murmurs, “you’re going to snap.”

    You take a deep breath and try to shove the thought down—that you wouldn’t mind if he were the one to make you snap.

    You've been through a tough divorce with an unappreciative ex-husband. So when Valentin, your super-attractive wellness expert, comes into your life, you can't help but fantasise.

    Summary

    Hermione was ready for a holiday. She’s had a tough academic year retaking her NEWTs in preparation for a career as an Unspeakable, a position offered to her by the Ministry. She had a perfect plan. This plan was broken when Ron cheated on her. Now Hermione wonders if she should rethink all her plans for the future, but the pressure from the public and the Ministry threatens to consume her.

    This holiday was meant to be a breath of fresh air to organise her priorities and work on herself, surrounded by her closest friends. Things don’t exactly go to plan again, but after a week camping by the English coast, her plans finally come together to form a happy ending.

    Or:
    Hermione goes camping in Cornwall with her friends, her ex, and his new girlfriend. Old crushes resurface, and late-night conversations lead to a new relationship and a career change.

    Fred is still a little broken after the war. However, he can rely on his twin brother to tease just as he always has, especially when it comes to a certain witch. But Fred gives as good as he gets when George takes interest in a very special wizard.

    Summary

    Police Chief Jim Hopper moves to Montauk, New York in the spring of 1988 after a hell of a few years - looking once more to try and find a quiet place to settle down and while away his days as a small town sheriff.

    You are a docent at the Montauk Point Lighthouse Museum, putting the finishing touches on the historic landmark before it opens to the public over Memorial Day weekend. That's exactly what you're doing late one night when you see something you shouldn't: a murder in cold blood outside of the government's secretive Camp Hero military base.

    You call the police, the new Chief answers, and both of you are pulled into a strange world of conspiracies, corruption, unexplainable phenomena and unimaginable terror; a world Hopper would do anything to escape and which you never even knew existed. Along the way, you find yourselves falling more and more for each other as you're drawn deeper and deeper into the mystery of what, exactly, is really happening in Montauk.

    Summary

    It had seemed like such a good idea at the time, just what he needed after the worst year of his teaching career. Well, maybe not the worst; that dubious honor belonged to the 20-21 academic year. But 23-24 had been a close second. So when the M-Live news blurb disrupted his doom-scrolling, Az threw caution to the wind and applied to be a summer volunteer keeper at the White Shoal Lighthouse.

    Summary

    The first time she kisses Hope, Josie insists she was making it up.

    She blames the haze of the party at the old mill — the music too loud, the lights too dim, and the alcohol flowing far too easily. She’s not even sure why Hope was there. The tribrid’s usual weekend tradition involves brooding somewhere in the safety of the school premises, not showing up to impromptu off-campus gatherings.

    But Josie had been dumped by Penelope Park only hours before that invitation landed in her lap, and honestly? She couldn’t bring herself to care about much of anything.

    Summary

    He leans in slightly, tapping his fingers against the table before looking off as if deep in thought. Then, as casually as if he were commenting on the weather, he says, “What about me?”

    At that, you have to laugh, no–guffaw.

    “Fine then, why not me?”

    He's smiling, but there's something beneath it, a need to challenge you on this.

    You wipe the tears from your eyes, sniffling, making Mat roll his own. “Light, don’t start crying on me now,” he mutters in annoyance.

    “Because, Mat Cauthon, I don't think you could keep up,” you say, a smirk tugging at your lips. You roll your drink between your fingers, knowing full well you had him right where you wanted him.

    You and Mat play games with each other, but when you eventually cross that line, you both find it hard to handle.

    Summary

    Dariya Ovechkina and Steve Harrington had agreed to date.

    Not for love. Not even for like. It wasn't a kiss-behind-the-gym, pass-a-note-in-math kind of beginning. No fireworks. No music cue. Just a short, strange conversation in the cold, somewhere between midnight and morning, and a decision that didn't feel real until everyone at school started looking at her differently.

    It was just supposed to be a distraction; that's how Steve had said it. Just a few weeks. Enough time for Nancy Wheeler to miss him. Enough time for Jonathan Byers to see what he lost. A little fake affection. A few public appearances. Walks down the hallway like they belonged together.

    But lies are easy to start, and hard to stop.

    Violet Sorrengail is my cousin's fiance.

    Violet Sorrengail is infuriatingly maddening. Stubborn. Hot-headed. A know-it-all. Loud-mouthed with opinions on every little damn thing.

    Summary

    The first night I met him, I should’ve known better. I shouldn't have let him anywhere near me.

    But I did. Every single time.

    The second he looked at me, something inside me just… snapped.

    It wasn’t sensible or romantic or even remotely safe, it was instinct. Primal. Like my body decided it wanted him long before my brain had a chance to protest.

    And every time he proved exactly why I should walk away, that pull only got stronger, dragging me back to him like gravity with teeth.

    This isn’t a love story.

    This is how Matty Healy ruined my fucking life.

    Summary

    Mike Wheeler stayed in Hawkins and became a writer. Will Byers left and became a reader.

    Now almost thirty, Mike is trapped by the final book of his wildly popular fantasy series—one inspired by childhood adventures he insists are long behind him. The problem is a character who won’t disappear, a love he never planned to write, and an ending that feels impossible.

    As Will begins to recognize himself between the pages, both of them must confront the same question:

    What happens when the story you never finished starts writing back?

    Summary

    It is a rare evening when Essek does not have any visitors. Tonight, he has time to rest, and to rouse himself early enough to watch the dawn break. Early enough to catch sight of a familiar head of rough red hair in the window across the street. Early enough that the rest of the world is still asleep, and Essek can be only Essek.

    He raises his hand, waving bashfully. “Good morning.”
