Hollywood Princess

Once upon a time, she wasn’t just controversial—she was Hollywood’s favorite chew toy. The tabloids fed on her like vultures, critics sharpened their knives with her name on them, and audiences rolled their eyes at the mere mention of her films. Washed-up. Deranged. A one-hit wonder who’d flown too close to the sun and torched her own wings on the way down. And then came the implosion. Bankrupt. Ghosted by every studio she’d ever worked with. Erased from call sheets, from awards circuits, from the entire industry she’d once breathed like oxygen. When the world slammed the door in her face, she didn’t fight—she folded. Pride bruised, heart cracked, she vanished into the shadows, surviving off cheap coffee, odd jobs, and the stubborn lie that she didn’t miss the spotlight. But now? Life has a funny way of circling back—and it just hurled her to rock bottom again. Only this time, she’s not hiding. This time, she’s done letting critics write her obituary before her comeback. She’s done being the cautionary tale whispered about at industry parties. With nothing left to lose, she’s going to claw her way up the mountain she once fell off—one gamble, one film, one miracle at a time. She’s ready to resurrect the dream she buried… and burn down every expectation in her path. Hollywood thinks it knows her story. It has no idea what’s coming. A meteor. A wildfire. A reclamation. She’s not aiming for redemption. She’s coming for the throne. “She’s a born director.” — TIME Magazine

The Nordic Maiden of the Fairy Mound

In the frozen reaches of the North, Astrid Egildottir of Vinterhall was raised to inherit more than a name. As heir to an ancient bloodline and the only daughter among eight brothers, she bore the weight of tradition, politics, and expectation. Bound by her grandfather’s will to marry Prince Leif of Verdelund, Astrid’s life was set to become a bridge between north and south—whether she wished it or not. But when the Verdelunds reveal themselves as vampires, the Winter Hall becomes a slaughterhouse. In one night, Astrid loses everything—her family, her shieldguard, her home. Betrayed and cornered, she is bitten by Leif and, in the same moment, attacked by a hidden Child of the Moon. The venom and the virus should have destroyed her. Instead, they awaken what lies dormant in her blood: the touch of the goddess Freyja. Reforged in agony and reborn beneath a violet full moon, Astrid rises as something new—neither vampire nor werewolf, but a hybrid bound by divine spark. She alone survives the massacre of Vinterhall, cursed with power, sharpened by grief, and carrying the ashes of her family on her shoulders. Now, the last daughter of a fallen house must carve her path through a world that will see her as monster, miracle, or weapon. The Hunters would see her destroyed. The Children of the Moon would see her as blasphemy. And the southern kingdoms will not suffer the North’s heir to live, not after the blood debt left in her wake. Astrid Vinterhall walks alone—haunted, hunted, and remade. But she is not broken. The purple moon has marked her, and the world will learn what it means to stand against the last of Vinterhall.

Iron Wolf Reborn

Jeng Minh, an overworked office clerk with a fondness for historical war novels, wakes up in the body of Zhou Chen, the infamous Iron Wolf of the Northwest—a ruthless warlord fated to die in a brutal ambush. But instead of perishing, Jeng Minh’s sudden awakening triggers a chain reaction that overturns Zhou Chen’s destined defeat and reshapes the course of an entire kingdom. As he struggles to command armies he’s never trained, navigate politics he’s never studied, and survive enemies he’s never met, Jeng Minh soon discovers the truth: Zhou Chen’s body is not merely a second chance—it is a vessel. A mysterious bannerless legion led by the enigmatic Bai Ye appears on the battlefield, kneels before him, and declares that the “soul reborn” has awakened. They know he is not Zhou Chen. They know why he survived. And they insist that destiny has already chosen him. But destiny is not the only force at play. Someone orchestrated the original ambush. Someone who also wears a bone-white mask. Prisoners whisper of hidden factions and ancient powers moving behind the scenes—powers that revived him, powers that now hunt him. With Zhou Chen’s loyal general watching suspiciously, rival warlords preparing for war, and a legion of masked warriors promising to return in three moons, Jeng Minh must uncover the secret behind Zhou Chen’s death, the true purpose of the vessel, and the identity of the being that revived him… Before destiny—and those who seek to control it—come to collect.
