Ло Бинхэ – плод любви повелителя демонов и женщины из мира людей. Детство мальчика было трудным и полным лишений, но в пору зрелости мало кто мог бы сравниться с ним в силе и красоте. Обретя власть над миром людей и миром демонов (а заодно получив гарем из сотен жён), он стал величайшим героем… в дрянной серии веб-новелл!

Так считал Шэнь Юань, заканчивая читать последнюю главу "Пути гордого бессмертного демона". Но когда приступ ярости от бездарности этой писанины приводит к его внезапной смерти, обозленный читатель перерождается в мире так взбесившего его романа! Да ещё в теле учителя юного Ло Бинхэ – прекрасного, но жестокого Шэнь Цинцю! Он очень силён, но если сюжет будет развиваться как положено, однажды коварного наставника постигнет ужасная кара за козни, учиненные маленькому герою…

Теперь новый Шэнь Цинцю твёрдо намерен завоевать расположение Ло Бинхэ до того, как тот завершит своё восхождение к вершинам власти. А иначе придётся узнать на своей шкуре, какая незавидная участь ждёт главных злодеев!

I’ve never hated anyone as much as I hate him.

The day my sister died, I told her best friend I never wanted to see him again, and I meant it.

I lost her because of him. Everything I used to care about means nothing now because of him.

It’s all because of him.

So when he shows up on my driveway two years later and tells me he’s moving in with me for his freshman year of college, I kick his ass and tell him to disappear. For good this time.

But I already know the defiant little brat’s not gonna listen. He never does.

Being near him again makes me crazy. I’m supposed to be the college basketball star my father raised me to be, but now I’m focused on a new game. I’m obsessed with watching him, touching him, breaking him. His body, his head, his heart, anything I can get my hands on…

I’m gonna take it all until he’s got nothing left.

And even though he knows exactly what I’m doing to him, he’s gonna let me do it anyway.

I’ve never hated anyone as much as I hate him.

The day my sister died, I told her best friend I never wanted to see him again, and I meant it.

I lost her because of him.…

I first saw the Folk when I was a little boy. When they started appearing in my garden, with their unnatural, cruel beauty and honeyed words and veiled taunts. I grew up with big green eyes watching me from the forest. Whispers from the trees. Shimmering skin darting between the bushes. Black creatures always lurking in the shadows.

While they were here, I thought nothing of them. It wasn’t until they were gone that I realise it wasn’t… normal.

But it isn’t until I’m twenty-one, when my life is in ruins, that they come back to take me away.

They say I’m not fully mortal. They say I should be among them. The Unseelie Ruler wants me on her land for reasons no one will explain to me, but it’s her aloof, painfully beautiful son who captures my attention and refuses to let go.

The cold, black-eyed assassin prince who strikes fear into the hearts of all Folk. Who I’ve been warned about, repeatedly.

Who watches me always.

I don’t trust the Folk, so I ignore their fearful advice to stay away from him. I ignore all of them except him, despite everything telling me that he can’t be trusted—that he’s just as bad as the rest of them, that he’s playing games with me, the clueless mortal held here against his will.

But I want him.

Mortal Skin is the first in a mm fae romance trilogy about a dark fae assassin prince and a mortal who is thrown into the cruel world of the Folk.

Warning: This m/m love story contains explicit sexual content and is not suitable for young readers. It also contains depictions of violence and deals with the death of a close family member. This trilogy will follow the same couple who get their HEA eventually, but book one ends on a cliffhanger.

Twenty years ago, monsters rose on earth and began a new age of civilization.

One where humans live in military-controlled, cramped and dirty cities along the coasts, and the majority of the United States is known as the Wastes. A lawless, desolate and dangerous place, teeming with monsters that have claimed the land for their own.

Including Wyn the Soul Eater.

He appears every three years, making his way across the country and slaughtering humans randomly, sucking them dry until they’re nothing but husks.

I’ve only been in the military for six months, but now I’m part of a unit tasked with trying to stop and capture him. And when I’m the only soldier out of hundreds that the Soul Eater leaves alive, I realise that… something about me has intrigued him.

But what is it? What could a twenty-three year old guy from the south, with no one and nothing in the world, have possibly done to capture the attention of a death monster with horns, blackened fingertips and a face hidden in the dark depths of his hood?

“Stolen me? As soon to say a caged bird can be stolen by the sky.”

Velasin vin Aaro never planned to marry at all, let alone a girl from neighboring Tithena. When an ugly confrontation reveals his preference for men, Vel fears he’s ruined the diplomatic union before it can even begin. But while his family is ready to disown him, the Tithenai envoy has a different solution: for Vel to marry his former intended’s brother instead.

Caethari Aeduria always knew he might end up in a political marriage, but his sudden betrothal to a man from Ralia, where such relationships are forbidden, comes as a shock.

With an unknown faction willing to kill to end their new alliance, Vel and Cae have no choice but to trust each other. Survival is one thing, but love—as both will learn—is quite another.

Byzantine politics, lush sexual energy, and a queer love story that is by turns sweet and sultry. A Strange and Stubborn Endurance is an exploration of gender, identity, and self-worth. It is a book that will live in your heart long after you turn the last page.

Ox was twelve when his daddy taught him a very valuable lesson. He said that Ox wasn’t worth anything and people would never understand him. Then he left.

Ox was sixteen when he met the boy on the road, the boy who talked and talked and talked. Ox found out later the boy hadn’t spoken in almost two years before that day, and that the boy belonged to a family who had moved into the house at the end of the lane.

Ox was seventeen when he found out the boy’s secret, and it painted the world around him in colors of red and orange and violet, of Alpha and Beta and Omega.

Ox was twenty-three when murder came to town and tore a hole in his head and heart. The boy chased after the monster with revenge in his bloodred eyes, leaving Ox behind to pick up the pieces.

It’s been three years since that fateful day—and the boy is back. Except now he’s a man, and Ox can no longer ignore the song that howls between them.

What happens when a devil claims a demon?

Detective Shadow Yor hates his life.

He spends all of his time, day after day, struggling against the demons in his head that tell him he’s a worthless, unlovable person. This doesn’t change when he’s sent on a new assignment with his partner to solve a series of murders. He’s good at his job and will find whoever did it, there’s no doubt there. The only question is whether or not he’ll be able to keep himself together, or if his empathic abilities will finally be the death of him.

Apollo Orobas is bored.

He’s bored of his secret nighttime proclivities and bored of playing the part of charming neighborhood do-gooder. Apollo isn’t good, never has been, but just when he’s starting to think life holds no interest, Shadow Yor stumbles into his sights. It doesn’t take long for him to figure out the detective is also hiding his true self, and suddenly coaxing Shade’s monster out into the light is all Apollo can think of. As obsession sinks its claws in, he decides it’s time for a new game, one Shade is going to play with him. Whether he likes it or not.

Kidnapped and forced to endure whatever twisted plans Apollo has in store, Shade struggles to hold onto his idea of right and wrong, but the more he tries to resist, the more those lines start to blur. What chance does a mere demon have against an actual devil? Especially one who soothes those twisted voices in his head and makes him feel for the first time ever that maybe he isn’t as unlovable as he’s always believed.

Trigger Warning: This is a stand-alone dark romance which means there are many themes that some might find disturbing. Some of these include, but are not limited to, dub-con, violence, a seriously obsessed male lead, a male lead who deals with low self-esteem, and explicit sexual content not suitable for all readers. Please be sure to read the Author's Note for a complete list of warnings! HEA guarantee!

Представьте, что можно стереть печаль.
Представьте, что можно забыть боль.
Представьте, что можно спрятать секрет.
Навсегда.

В мире «Переплёта» это возможно. В пыльных мастерских переплётчики высушивают кожу, сшивают листы – и помогают людям забыть. Они слушают их рассказы и слово за словом переносят на бумагу, стирают секреты из памяти и прячут под обложкой.

Молодой Эмметт покидает родительский дом, чтобы научиться этому сложному ремеслу. Под присмотром старухи-переплётчицы он создает прекрасные книги с чужими воспоминаниями внутри. Мастерская становится его новым домом – пока однажды, в комнате, о которой Эмметт не знал, он не находит книгу со своим именем…

"Фальшивомонетчики" (1925) — произведение, знаковое как для творчества Андре Жида, так и для французской литературы первой половины ХХ века вообще. Роман, во многом предсказавший мотивы, которые стали впоследствии основными в творчестве экзистенциалистов. Запутанные отношения трех семей — представителей крупной буржуазии, объединенных преступлением, пороком и лабиринтом саморазрушительных страстей, становятся фоном для истории взросления двух юношей — двух друзей детства, каждому из которых предстоит пройти свою собственную, очень непростую школу "воспитания чувств".

Роман знаменитого японского писателя Юкио Мисимы (1925-1970) "Исповедь маски", прославивший двадцатичетырехлетнего автора и принесший ему мировую известность, во многом автобиографичен. Ключевая тема этого знаменитого произведения - тема смерти, в которой герой повествования видит "подлинную цель жизни". Мисима скрупулезно исследует собственное душевное устройство, добираясь до самой сути своего «я»…

In modern-day England, witches live alongside humans: White witches, who are good; Black witches, who are evil; and sixteen-year-old Nathan, who is both. Nathan’s father is the world’s most powerful and cruel Black witch, and his mother is dead. He is hunted from all sides. Trapped in a cage, beaten and handcuffed, Nathan must escape before his seventeenth birthday, at which point he will receive three gifts from his father and come into his own as a witch—or else he will die. But how can Nathan find his father when his every action is tracked, when there is no one safe to trust—not even family, not even the girl he loves?

In the tradition of Patrick Ness and Markus Zusak, Half Bad is a gripping tale of alienation and the indomitable will to survive, a story that will grab hold of you and not let go until the very last page.

"Если пойти тропинкой, ведущей в темный лес, — мимо ручья и поваленного дерева, кишащего мокрицами и термитами, — то придешь к стеклянному гробу. Он стоит прямо на земле, а в нем спит мальчик — с рогами и острыми, как ножи, ушами." – в детстве Хейзел думала, что этот мальчик — принц, и мечтала, что однажды он проснется, и будет мудро и справедливо править своим царством, и не будет таким жестоким и коварным, как многие феи и эльфы. Хейзел выросла и забыла истории, которые сочиняла о рогатом мальчике. Всем известно, что он никогда не проснется. Но однажды это все-таки произошло… Весь мир перевернулся вверх дном. И Хейзел ждет все, что полагается в таких случаях: любовь, предательство и подвиги.

История любви двух молодых людей описана во всех психологических, анатомических и эротических подробностях без какого бы то ни было стеснения, читатель переносится из душной атмосферы борделя в холодную роскошь фамильного особняка, из сияющего концертного зала в студию художника.

There are a few things Henry Denton knows, and a few things he doesn’t.

Henry knows that his mom is struggling to keep the family together, and coping by chain-smoking cigarettes. He knows that his older brother is a college dropout with a pregnant girlfriend. He knows that he is slowly losing his grandmother to Alzheimer’s. And he knows that his boyfriend committed suicide last year.

What Henry doesn’t know is why the aliens chose to abduct him when he was thirteen, and he doesn’t know why they continue to steal him from his bed and take him aboard their ship. He doesn’t know why the world is going to end or why the aliens have offered him the opportunity to avert the impending disaster by pressing a big red button.

But they have. And they’ve only given him 144 days to make up his mind.

The question is whether Henry thinks the world is worth saving. That is, until he meets Diego Vega, an artist with a secret past who forces Henry to question his beliefs, his place in the universe, and whether any of it really matters. But before Henry can save the world, he’s got to figure out how to save himself, and the aliens haven’t given him a button for that.
