    Descended #author Ingrid j Adams

    In the quiet between worlds, some hearts echo louder than time. Everyone loves Indigo Wolfe. But all he wants is for someone to truly see him. Radiant and reckless, Indigo moves through high school like a legend come to life. But beneath the popularity he wears like armor, he’s unravelling. Haunted by feelings that aren’t his, voices no one else hears, and visions he can’t explain, he’s consumed by a magic he doesn’t understand and can’t control. Then he meets her, a girl who truly sees him. A girl he somehow remembers. Because he’s loved her before. In other lives. But fate is never kind for long. When they’re torn apart, Indigo is thrust into a hidden world of secret magic and ancient echoes. A world where his pain has meaning, his powers have a name, and love is the thread connecting lifetimes. There’s a reason he keeps finding, and losing, the same girl, life after life. As Indigo uncovers the truth about who he is and what he’s capable of, he’s faced with a choice: surrender to the life written for him, or fight to rewrite it. Set in the 1990s across the beaches of Sydney and the deserts of Arizona, DESCENDED is the spellbinding first book in a sweeping four-part saga about soul-deep love, found family, and the timeless struggle to change a destiny written in the stars. If you love wounded heroes, immortal love, 90s nostalgia, and stories that echo across lifetimes, start reading today. Author Ingrid J. Adams writes contemporary fantasy and paranormal romance where magic collides with destiny, and true love shapes who we become.

    Shadow Ledger #author Tess M. Calloway

    Shadow Ledger: A Zoe Blaise Mystery Prequel Before every mystery, there was one mistake. Long before Zoe Blaise uncovered the conspiracies threatening the global beauty industry, there was Giovanni Jones. Brilliant, principled and deeply committed to justice, Giovanni is a forensic accountant seconded from the Bank of Italy whose unusual ability to read the intentions hidden within numbers has drawn him into the world of intelligence. When a series of seemingly legitimate financial transactions reveals an unexpected pattern, he finds himself at the centre of an investigation stretching across pharmaceutical companies, cosmetics manufacturers, financial institutions and political influence. Every transaction appears legal. Every company appears respectable. Together, they reveal something far more dangerous. Giovanni believes in institutions. He believes in procedure. And above all, he believes that acting responsibly means waiting until the evidence justifies action. It is the greatest mistake of his life. An undercover operation is exposed. Lives are lost. A trusted colleague barely survives. Faced with an impossible moral choice, Giovanni sacrifices the truth to protect those who remain in danger—a decision that allows the conspiracy to survive and changes him forever. Unable to place the same faith in the institutions that failed him, Giovanni quietly establishes Orpheus Consulting: a small, independent investigative practice founded on a simple principle—that someone must follow power wherever it hides. Then a young forensic accountant named Zoe Blaise walks through his door. In her, Giovanni recognises something familiar: an unwillingness to guess when the evidence can still be followed. The future of Orpheus has begun. To connect with Tess .... https://tessmcalloway.com/the-books/ https://tessmcalloway.com/the-zoe-blaise-mysteries/ https://www.instagram.com/beautyclaimsinsights/
