Seed of War
Fantasy After abdicating her duties to her bloodline, Elenwe swore her life and soul to the fertility goddess, Adanya. Elenwe grew advanced and rose through the clergy until her 27th spring, the last year to produce a "Child of Adanya". It has been eleven years since she fled the same fate with her family, to be coupled with a stranger. Instead, her prayers were heard and answered as Elenwe discovers herself among the Seven Annointed. Each of these seven are set to participate in the Veneration Ceremony before the shared moon between summer and spring. The ceremony that for every seven years, as long back as one could remember, resulted in charred pillars of ash from the participants.
Thrust back into the world she desperately tried to escape, Elenwe, along with her new allies (a blacksmith, a fisher, a prisoner, a miner, an apprentice, and a scholar) need to navigate the difficult political world as all eyes await to see if they are truly the embodiment of the gods...

Rebirth to Revenge:The Second Life Of Lenora
Sophie Abou "You make me want to risk it all," Lenora confessed nervously to her boss.
"Then risk it all, cos I already have." The ever enigmatic billionaire CEO-Astor Parker, assured her with a kiss to her forehead.
--
All Lenora Albert did in her past life was love the wrong man completely, blindly, and to her own destruction.
She overlooked Lucian's constant disrespect, convinced that one day, he'd soften toward her.
But Lucian never changed.
Instead, he got her best friend pregnant, and together, they laughed at her. As if the betrayal wasn't cruel enough, her best friend ended it all by murdering her.
But fate isn't done with Lenora.
She's brought back in time, given a second life to rewrite her story.
When she's wrongfully fired at work after being implicated in a scandal, Lenora lands an unexpected role at a billion-dollar fashion firm as the personal secretary to its powerful CEO, Astor Parker. Cold, brilliant, and dangerously alluring Astor falls for her fast.
One that he reveals with actions rather with words.
But Lenora no longer believes in love. All she seeks is revenge.
Then comes the cruel twist-Astor is Lucian's brother.
Astor is willing to burn the world to keep her safe. But beyond Lucian, beyond her traitorous best friend, lurks a darker force. A stalker, who tends to be a greater threat to her life and won't stop until she's dead again.
Will she survive again in this second life? My Stepbrother, My Ruin
Daisy_D "I knew he was trouble the moment I walked into our shared house. The way his hands gripped my waist when no one was looking, the way his voice dipped when he said my name, it wasn't just wrong, it was dangerous. He wasn't just my stepbrother, he was my undoing."

And when they do, Ryder and Evie will have to decide if the risk is worth the ruin.
