Summary
Born in the shadow of Amarantha’s reign, Nephele has been sheltered in Cesere's temple since infancy—her days a cycle of ritual, restraint, and restless longing for answers she knows she'll likely never have. Until Hybern.
Months after Amarantha’s fall, soldiers descend on Cesere. Left bleeding and broken, Nephele is rescued by her court's High Lord and offered sanctuary in the House of Wind, a sanctuary carved into the mountains beneath a starlit sky. Yet grief leaves her hollow, and nightmares of blood-stained snow and a tether to the unknown haunt her in the library at the heart of the House. Something stirs in her blood—a power she never knew . . . another truth she was never told. A bloodline buried beneath a life built on lies.
Rhysand’s spymaster, Azriel, and his general, Cassian, find themselves drawn to Nephele for reasons neither can name. Nephele is desperate to uncover what was taken from her as war builds on the horizon. Every truth unraveled makes the world tremble beneath her feet. She never could've predicted what life beyond temple walls had waiting for her . . .
And she certainly never expected that it would be two Illyrian warriors who would finally awaken the 𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 within her heart.

Summary
It was a well known fact: the veil between the worlds grew thinner and thinner, so the possibility of a crashing was already a certainty. The rumors started a long time ago, but no one did anything to stop it. Luckily, time has passed, we went through wars and race eradications, but Faerie Realms and Mortal Lands stayed almost the same, some richer and some poorer.
Nobody was talking about the fallen, until now, when the fates started working their old, wicked magic and gave us an early Summer Soltice gift: an unprepared girl who was sent tumbling from the sky.
Tumultuous and dangerous,
Bitter and heartbreaking.
This is the story of the Evening star.
About the young woman who holds the Sun as her weapon,
And the Moon as an ornament.
About the Cursed Crown, who chooses its own master
And about the man in the shadows, irreversibly bound to her, by the tongue of death.
And, after all, about us, the nothingness who catches a goal.I am the Bloody Blade, former leader of the first legion, last of my kind, banished and tormented by dark memories and here is the beginning of our story.

Summary
Bridgeton/Pride and Prejudice meets ACOTAR well specifically Azriel
Azriel, the Shadowsinger of the Night Court, has spent centuries in war and darkness. He has no patience for noble games, no desire for politics. But when Rhysand arranges his marriage to the infamous Jewel of Prythian-an effort to mend ties with the Spring Court and keep Azriel from dangerous affections-he is forced into a world he despises.
Liora, daughter of the Dawn and Spring Courts, is everything he is not: a highborn beauty, the perfect courtly lady, untouched by war. To Azriel, she is spoiled, vain, and frivolous. To her he is a brute-cold, scarred, and lacking any grace beyond the battlefield. Forced into marriage, they are trapped in a battle of wills, neither willing to bend.
For beneath Liora's silks and diamonds lies a mind as sharp as his blades. And beneath Azriel's shadows and scars is a longing he never dared to name.
Can a warrior of darkness and a lady of starlight survive the storm ahead-or will their pride and prejudice tear them, and Prythian, apart?

Little did I know, this encounter with him in the art gallery would change my life forever…Please forgive me for any grammatical mistakes, English is not my first language 🎀
I still hope you have fun reading it. -

Summary
Detective Azriel Knight has spent eleven months hunting a killer who leaves no traces—only bodies. Methodical, patient, and relentlessly focused, he's close to a breakthrough. The last thing he needs is interference, especially from a journalist.
Gwyneth Berdara built her career on exposing the truth, no matter how ugly or how powerful the people trying to hide it. Her investigation into police corruption made her a pariah at Velaris PD, but she's never backed down from a story. And the serial killer stalking her city? That's the story of a lifetime.
When the mayor forces an unprecedented arrangement—embed a reporter with the detective hunting the city's most wanted—Azriel and Gwyn find themselves trapped together. He thinks she's reckless and glory-seeking. She thinks he's an obstinate wall of secrets and procedure. They've been enemies for months, clashing at crime scenes and press conferences, each convinced the other is wrong about everything.
Confined in close quarters, chasing shadows through Velaris, they discover that the line between hatred and something else entirely is dangerously thin. But when you're hunting a killer, falling for your partner might be the most reckless thing of all.

Summary
There was something in his tone that set Azriel’s instincts on edge. His shadows reached out, brushing against Lucien’s form, searching for answers his words didn’t provide. That’s when Azriel caught it again: beneath the faint scent of cedar and sunshine, there was blood. Pain. Lucien’s blood.
“You’re hurt,” Azriel said suddenly, his voice dropping an octave.
Lucien stiffened, his posture going rigid. “I’m fine,” he replied quickly, too quickly.
“No, you’re not,” Azriel rumbled, stepping closer. His shadows curled tighter, restless and insistent. “I can smell it.”
Lucien turned sharply, his golden eye blazing. “I said I’m fine,” he snapped, the mask of calm cracking for the briefest moment.Or, Lucien really needs a hug and I wrote a self- indulgent fic about it.

Summary
Eris spent most of his days sitting by the singular window that the tower had, as he was doing now, basking in the radiant sunshine. It was situated in the wall directly across from his small, rickety bed, allowing a bit of light to filter into what passed as his bedroom.
There were no bars or glass panes on the window but, with how impossible escape through it proved to be, there might as well have been a net of faebane trapping him in here.
So far, the only things that were allowed either in or out of the window, was light and the wind.
The latter of which ruffled the hair framing his face with gentle fingers, the only sections of his hair that were short enough to be combed with just one pass of the brush.
The rest of his hair was…
Well.
Or,
Prince Eris had all but given up hope that he'd ever escape this hell-hole.
Stripped of both power and freedom, he'd resigned himself to simply wasting away in his towering prison.
That is, until a painfully familiar figure from the past comes to his rescue, and reignites the golden flames that had lain dormant within his chest for so long.
Is it possible that he hasn't lost the chance to find Redemption? Or Love?

Summary
Nesta hasn’t heard the sound of a voice—familiar or otherwise—in five days. Not since Cassian slammed the balcony doors behind him on his way out after a particularly nasty argument, wingbeats like thunder retreating into the clouds.
It seems that all she can do these days is anger the ones around her.
She hasn’t left the House of Wind in two weeks. She hasn’t been allowed to. Not since Rhysand told her, voice black with rage, “If it wasn’t for Feyre, if you weren’t my brother’s mate, I would have had you executed for what you did.”
Not since Amren said she belonged in one of the cells beneath the Court of Nightmares, because, “Some monsters don’t stay tamed, no matter how hard you try to civilize them.”
Not since Mor stared at her and said to her cousin, “I don’t know why you’re surprised, Rhys. You’ve always known she’s reckless and useless in equal measure. She never did become one of us.”
Not since Cassian stood in that same room and stayed silent.
_____
Even after the Mask is safely returned by Bryce, Nesta is confined to the House of Wind. Deciding enough is enough, she makes plans to sever something that was supposed to be her sacred forever.

Summary
They say the ocean keeps secrets that should never surface. Solana always believed she belonged to it — until the waves began whispering her name like a warning.
Now Adriarta’s waters rot with an ancient hunger, twisting all they touch. Desperate to save what she loves, Solana crosses forbidden borders into Velaris — where secrets breathe and shadows listen. There, she meets again Azriel: the spymaster who sees too much, who holds her too close, who shouldn’t want her at all.
They know better than to want this — but every stolen glance, every unspoken truth, drags them deeper. He’s her tether to the surface when the ocean calls her home. She’s the one secret he can’t bury.
When monsters rise and old pacts break open like wounds, Solana must choose: drown in the tide that claims her — or in the hands that have never learned how to let her go.
