Warmth of a beating heart

Awri_
For centuries, the legend of the Ghost Pirate Eitenne haunted the seas—an immortal captain cursed and feared, his name a whisper in stormy winds. Most believed he was just a myth. Zane certainly did… until the night he was ripped from his home and into the arms of the very legend he thought impossible. Eitenne is as terrifying as the stories claimed—but he’s also captivating, unnervingly beautiful, and hiding a heart lost to time, both literally and metaphorically. Forced into an uneasy alliance, Zane finds himself drawn to the enigmatic pirate, even as he resists every pull toward him. Eitenne, for all his coldness, is far from indifferent—and his obsession with Zane grows harder to conceal. As secrets unravel and danger closes in, Zane must decide if falling for a ghost is madness… or fate. Because beneath the cursed captain’s elegance lies a soul aching for love—and Zane might just be the one to make him feel alive again.

The Leper King's Healer

After a tragic accident that sent her back 845 years in time to the year 1177, in the Middle Ages, during the reign of Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, Kate Mitchell, a wealthy business tycoon in the pharmaceutical industry, a gifted ex-military, a pharmacologist and botanist, and a brilliant archer from 2022, wakes up as Lady Philippa, a pretty, innocent, frail, and proper young lady of House Antioch, with whom she shares nothing in common. She realised she had died on that day, and her soul travels back in time and takes over the body of Philippa, a helpless lady who would face tragedy, betrayal, and scandal before dying young and heartbroken. She chose to live as Philippa because she had a second chance at life and only one goal in mind: to live and survive at any cost. To succeed, she must thrive and learn to live in the Medieval era, where nothing is common for her, and, above all, she must avoid an arranged marriage, which will doom Phillipa to death after a terrible heartbreak. Lady Philippa, unfortunately, is about to be engaged to an unknown man, and she must devise a plan to prevent this from happening. Kate's background as an ex-military officer, pharmacologist, and botanist, as well as her limited knowledge of history, will be invaluable in surviving the historical mediaeval times when modern technology was out of reach. However, she requires the assistance of the reigning king, Baldwin IV, who is suffering from leprosy at the time. She'll have to take control of the situation. It is up to Kate's bravery and intelligence to find a way to persuade Baldwin IV to help her, and she has few options other than joining his royal court. Will the king accept her, or will she perish as the body's original owner? Will she be able to change her destiny? Alternatively, will she be able to find the love and family she seeks?
