Every village has its secrets. In Elara’s town, it stands in the square—an ancient faceless statue that no one dares to touch, no one dares to question. It has stood unmoving for centuries. Until tonight. When the clock strikes midnight, Elara discovers a terrifying truth: the statue has turned, its stone gaze fixed on her, and the world itself falls silent. In this frozen moment—the Silent Hour—shadows awaken and walk freely, unseen by anyone but her. As whispers spread and neighbors vanish without a trace, Elara realizes her bloodline is tied to the statue’s curse. To save the village, she must uncover its forgotten history, confront creatures that thrive in silence, and decide whether to sacrifice herself to seal the darkness away… or unleash it forever. Perfect for fans of dark fantasy, gothic mysteries, and atmospheric horror, The Silent Hour weaves a chilling tale of ancient curses, eerie midnights, and a heroine who must choose between survival and sacrifice.

It's been ten years now and I've programmed my brain to forget her little did I know that I was deceiving myself. Things changed when I saw her. She looked different. She wasn't the same little girl I had fallen in love with. She was now a grown woman. She was gorgeous. I needed her beneath me just for one night. I'd get her out of my system and move on. That was probably a lie. Months later. Here I am drowning my sorrow in alcohol on my last night as a single man. I was getting married to a woman I never truly loved.

He has a lot of rules in his professional and personal life. He keeps both worlds separated. He has to. He’s somewhat of a public figure—and yes, he’s made enemies climbing to the top. Being a world-famous paleontology professor doesn’t mix well with his romantic life. He likes his sex rough, and a whole lot of naughty. Which means his students are 100% off limits. One problem.

It’s only one semester. Right? But when an enemy decides to use Kenzie to force his hand, Royce has no choice but to keep her close. Very, very close. His two worlds have just collided. He just hopes he can let her go once the danger is over…
