When Alyssa Martin boards a train to escape her old life, the last thing she expects is to meet a man who sets her world on fire. Darius, a soulful music producer with a quiet intensity, is also on the run—from pressure, from expectations, and maybe even from himself. What starts as a casual conversation between two strangers becomes something much deeper. As the train winds south toward New Orleans, Alyssa and Darius discover a connection they can’t ignore—one built on honesty, attraction, and an undeniable spark.

Beneath the branches of the Weeping Tree, a boy begins to remember who he is. Lioren has no past—only questions and the strange gift that lets him hear the echoes of forgotten voices. When he is drawn to a magical tree deep in the woods, he meets the memory of a long-dead sage… and begins a journey not of battle, but of becoming. Trained in silence, guided by legacy, Lioren learns to wield magic not through power—but through presence.

What if your soul had to forget everything to remember who you truly are? Alana Blue Fin, a royal mer-being from the sacred waters of Sirius B, defies her destiny and sacrifices her world for one thing: true love. But to reach Earth, she must pass through the Twelve Celestial Houses—each a realm of elemental trials, spirit guides, and soul remembering. From the Mirror of Self to the Temple of Devotion, Alana’s journey is one of awakening, shedding her past to embody her future.

The road is quiet, but never empty. After training under the Great Sage, Lioren leaves the Weeping Tree behind and begins his journey to the kingdom of Elderglen. But the road ahead isn’t just a path through forests and valleys—it’s a path toward companionship, discovery, and growth. One by one, strangers become something more. A swordfighter with a sharp grin. A healer whose magic is rooted in stillness. An archer too fast to catch. A summoner with a gentle shadow. Together, they form a party not by contract, but by trust.

A hilarious, smart and incredibly singular debut from Raven Smith, whose exploration of the minutiae of everyday modern life and culture is totally unique and painfully relatable. Is being tall a social currency? Am I the contents of my fridge? Does yoga matter if you’re not filthy rich? Is a bagel four slices of bread? Are three cigarettes a meal?

Some memories don’t fade. They wait. Lioren wakes in a forest with no past, no name beyond a whisper, and no idea why the world around him feels both new and hauntingly familiar. Drawn to a strange village at the edge of nowhere — and a tree that weeps memory instead of sap — he finds that some places aren’t meant to be fixed. They’re meant to be heard. As forgotten stories echo through the roots of the Weeping Tree, Lioren discovers he has a gift: not to fight, not to lead… but to listen.
