tracy lorraine thorn

A Love Story Entwined with Misunderstandings in a World of Chaos and Survival! What starts as an exciting trip to Paris quickly turns into a nightmare when Heesoo’s plane crash-lands, leaving her stranded in a zombie-infested parallel world. In this brutal realm, where outsiders like her are treated as slaves and violence reigns supreme, survival seems impossible—especially in a place where she can neither understand nor speak the language. Captured by ruthless men intent on enslaving her, Heesoo faces the horrifying prospect of being left to die at the hands of zombies. Just when all hope seems lost, a man with piercing emerald-green eyes miraculously saves her—a beacon of strength amidst the chaos. “Get lost, unless you’re looking for trouble.” Her savior, Calix Clovis, a holy knight and relentless zombie hunter, is the epitome of strength in this cruel world. With no other options, Heesoo clings to him as her only lifeline. Yet, as their journey unfolds, the language barrier between them breeds endless misunderstandings, while an unspoken tension of desire simmers beneath the surface, threatening to ignite. Heesoo finds herself falling for Calix, drawn to the man who saved her. Calix, too, feels a growing attraction to her, but as a holy knight, he views such desires as sinful temptations and fights to suppress his feelings. ‘What am I supposed to do with this woman?’ Helpless and unable to survive without him, Heesoo becomes his burden—one he knows he should abandon. Logic demands he leave her behind and continue his fight alone. Yet no matter how hard he tries, Calix cannot bring himself to let her go. “When we reach the city, we’ll never see each other again. Got it?” Calix tells himself she’s nothing more than a thorn—insignificant yet irritating. But the longer they travel together, the deeper she embeds herself in his soul, sharp and impossible to remove. Her presence unsettles him, forcing him to question everything he once believed, leaving him to wonder: would removing this thorn cause more pain than keeping it? Will Calix pull the thorn free and walk away? Or will he surrender to the feelings that pierce him deeper with every step they take together? #Romance #Sexual #Misunderstanding #Fantasy #Zombie #Obsessive Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by MaCherie All right reserved.

For the Codex awaits its true host. One goal: to write the Eighth Circle, a new Hell conceived by men themselves.

"I'm coming to cut out my baby from your stomach myself." They called me Rose, but they forgot one truth: every rose comes with thorns. I trusted my husband. I loved my best friend. They repaid me by poisoning my father, stealing my inheritance, and locking me in a basement to rot—six months pregnant. I died watching them wear my jewels and laugh at my misery. Then fate gave me a second chance. I woke up at my father's funeral, the taste of betrayal still fresh on my tongue. They think I'm still the same soft, grieving heiress they can drug and manipulate. They think I'm an easy target. They're wrong. This time, I'm not just defending my father's legacy. I'm burning their world to the ground. From the funeral podium to the boardroom, I'm reclaiming my power piece by piece. But as I rewrite my destiny, my enemies are evolving. Worse, the man who should be dead isn't staying buried. How far am I willing to go to win? And when the thorns I've grown finally draw blood—will I be the one holding the blade, or the one bleeding out?

Ling Rossi is the most feared Alpha in the city. As the Don of the Rossi mafia empire, she rules with cold precision, her crimson rose scent a harbinger of death for those who cross her. Heir to a legacy of power, she has spent her life building walls around her heart—until a scentless ghost walks into her territory. Ava Sterling is a "defective" Omega, dismissed by a world that values Alphas and fragrant Omegas above all. A police detective scraping by on determination and bruised pride, she's investigating a murder at an abandoned dock when she stumbles upon a mafia cleanup operation. Knocked unconscious and awaiting execution, she locks eyes with a stunning, red-eyed woman who inexplicably stops her men from pulling the trigger. Ling doesn't know why she spares the fiery, defiant detective. She only knows that Ava's complete lack of Omega submission intrigues her more than any power play. She brings Ava to a luxurious safehouse, warns her to drop the case, and expects to never see her again. But when Ava goes into a sudden, violent heat, Ling is the one who finds her—and the one who applies the suppressant patch with a tenderness that shatters both their defenses. What begins as a cat-and-mouse game between a predator and her prey evolves into something far more dangerous: a consuming love. Ling becomes Ava's silent protector, dismantling her abusive family and offering her a sanctuary she's never known. Ava, in turn, sees past the mafia queen to the lonely woman beneath, warming the cold fortress of Ling's heart. But their love is built on a lie. Ava doesn't know that the woman who holds her at night is the city's most powerful criminal. When Ava's detective work and Ling's empire inevitably collide, the truth explodes between them. Betrayed and heartbroken, Ava must choose: the law she's sworn to uphold, or the love that has rewritten her soul. And Ling must face the ultimate test: surrender her empire, or lose the only woman who has ever made her feel human. Their bond is further tested by a mysterious arrival—a baby left in a basket at Ling's door, with a note in Russian and a hundred-dollar bill. Anya, the grey-eyed foundling, becomes the unexpected heart of their family, forcing both women to confront what legacy truly means. Through assassination attempts, courtroom battles, a brutal kidnapping that nearly kills Ling, and the slow, painful road to recovery, their love is forged in fire. They must navigate the treacherous waters of Ling's underworld, the judgment of a city that sees Ava as a traitor to her badge, and the relentless threat of enemies who see Ling's love as her greatest weakness. This is the story of a Crimson Rose who learns that true strength lies not in fear, but in devotion. And a Defective Thorn who discovers that being underestimated is the most powerful weapon of all. Together, they will build an empire not of territory, but of family—proving that even in the darkest shadows, love can bloom.
