Locked in the Celestial Gaze

To be favored by a God is to be a slave with a prettier leash. ​Most people spend their lives performing for the heavens, begging for a single scrap of divine attention. Guy is the exception. He despises the "Eyes" in the sky, preferring the grit of the dirt to the fake glitter of the Stream. But in a world where those who aren't watched simply do not survive, his silence is a death sentence. Everything changes after a single viral moment. When Guy's raw, unblessed strength catches the attention of the world, he finally gains a viewer but she isn't like the others. ​She doesn't want to watch him. She wants to own him. ​“I will give you what you seek. In turn, you will be mine.” ​What do you do when your greatest protector is also your most dangerous predator?

Love, Lust and Liars

Ropyr Woods has built her life on control, resilience, and reinvention. At twenty-eight, she’s no longer the heartbroken girl left behind in Honey Bell, South Carolina—she’s a thriving business owner with a reputation for strength and independence. Her relationship with Jeremy Lane is steady, safe, and everything her younger self once thought she needed to move on. With him, life is predictable. Manageable. Secure. Then Davis Lewis comes home. Once Honey Bell’s golden boy—and the boy who shattered her—Davis traded small-town love for the promise of a professional baseball career, leaving Ropyr to pick up the pieces alone. But when a career-ending injury forces him back into the very town he once couldn’t wait to escape, old memories don’t just resurface—they ignite. When Jeremy leaves town for a week to handle family matters in Colorado, Ropyr finds herself face-to-face with the past she never truly buried. Davis isn’t the same reckless dreamer who walked away years ago. He’s quieter now, haunted, carrying regrets he can’t outrun. And the chemistry between them? Still undeniable. Still dangerous. As long-buried truths begin to unravel, Ropyr is forced to confront the choices that shaped her life—and the lies she’s told herself to survive. Because love isn’t always loyal, lust isn’t always harmless, and the past has a way of rewriting everything you thought you knew. In a town where everyone knows your name—and your secrets—Ropyr must decide: hold on to the life she built… or risk everything for the love that once destroyed her.
