[WLW] An ambitious scientist won't let anything get in the way of her dreams--not even death. ⚓︎ When Malia set out to sea, she expected to make a life-changing discovery; instead, she received a life-ending doom. But death isn't her end, and she's granted another chance by the very ocean that she died in. That's according to Beatrice, a thousand-year-old water spirit that shows her the ways of their kind. After all, Malia isn't the first to be reborn, and countless souls lost at sea still live underwater, tasked with saving mortals from the same fate. It's a tough job, but if Malia does it right, she can win back her life on land. However, vengeful souls lurk in the waters, determined to destroy the mortals above them. These ghouls were the ones that killed Malia, but if she wants to return to the surface, she'll have to face them in a fight for her mortal life or eternal death. ⚓︎ SURVIVAL KIT ✓ Sapphic romance ✓ Magical "mermaids" ✓ Underwater adventures ✓ Science (specifically physics) FEATURED: ★ For AAPI Heritage Month and Pride Month ★ @FreeTheLGBT Pride Awards 2024 - Grand Winner ★ @Fantasy, @adventure ★ Former Amb profiles @talesofthedeep, @CitifiedFantasy, @ReshapeIt, @mythandlegend, @QuickFantasy, @YAFantasy, @The_Reading_Room ★ @AstaniaCommunity, @PrideReads ONC 2023 ENTRY Word Count: +33k Genres: Fantasy/Low Fantasy, Adventure, Romance Written: 05 FEB 2023 - 24 FEB 2023 Published: 09 FEB 2023 - 03 MAR 2023 ★ Cover and graphics made by the amazing @MoranaInDesign! ★ This story is only available on �������� by @laurendoubleu.

[Book 1 in the Indra's Heart series] "We are meant to be together. My dreams told me so." When Andrew "Drew" Stone is invited to the mysterious Wade mansion by his long term crush, he is ecstatic for a chance to finally pursue her despite his best friend's warnings to stay away. On the day of the event, he is stalked by glowing yellow eyes and eerie voices that follow him all the way to his slumber, intensifying with every occurrence. Soon, Drew is thrown into an unavoidable realm of magic and peril, forcing him to realize that the girl of his dreams might actually be a nightmare, and that keeping his family alive is more important than puppy love. So what'll it be, leave your home behind to train at a supernatural academy, or watch the mortal world burn? For Andrew, both. Indra's heart is an urban fantasy novel that follows a young Black man on his journey to discover his identity, navigate romance, and determine his position in a traditional high stakes battle between good versus evil.

Book 1 in The Champions Duology. The Ceremony has happened once every five years for centuries. The concept is simple. Six kingdoms each choose two sets of twins between the ages of eleven to twenty one to fight to the death. One is held hostage, while the other joins the fight. Winning means glory and riches. Losing means death. Kaiden Lynch is cocky, sarcastic and a show off. Finley Castel is the complete opposite, quiet, naive, and easily fades into the background. It sounds like a recipe for disaster. But when the two boys are chosen for the Ceremony, they may have a chance to change each other's lives forever, but how can they change the world when only one of them can survive?
