Good morning, I'm Kalliope Aoidós (yes, spelled like this: Καλλιόπη Ἀοιδός... pretty impressive, right?), Technical Account Manager at a company in... well, I'm sure you don't really need my CV for this. Let's try again. Hey, I'm Kalliope Aoidós, and I've got a little problem. Okay, more like an incurable, family-heritage problem. Technically, it's genetic-something my family has been conveniently passing down for centuries. One of my great-great-great-great-grandparents thought it was totally appropriate to insult his muse, calling her a "good-for-nothing" and a "sellout." How charming, right? Too bad that muse was THE Muse after whom I'm named. Apparently, she's not exactly the warm and fuzzy type. So why on earth do I have the honor of carrying the name of the one who cursed my entire family tree? Oh, that was my grandmother's brilliant idea. In a way, they "sacrificed" me to her by giving me her name, hoping it would change her mind about the curse. Spoiler alert: It didn't. So here I am, just like hundreds of my ancestors, stuck in the same lovely swamp. I'm a Book Jumper or, as my grandmother (who has a flair for dramatic epithets) likes to call me, a βιβλιοποδητής, which basically means "walker of books." And these are my stories. Or, more accurately, my delightful misadventures. Copyright 2025 AnemoneMarino. All Rights Reserved.

"Well, you didn't expect me to sleep on the floor, now did you?" she scoffed. His eyes darkened, and her throat dried. Noticed by everyone. Trusted by no one. Loved by none. Maria's first-born life is nothing like she imagined. She's the first-born daughter of the Great Madre Beatrice Carasso. Everyone wants her to succeed... or fail. In a world where every smile hides a knife, every glance is measured, and loyalty is borrowed, Maria must learn which battles are worth fighting-and which scars are worth keeping. Then comes along Marcello. He's strong, he's sexy, but he's also in the American Mafia. What started as a half-hearted alliance is slowly evolving into feelings Maria isn't allowed to have. And when the first one is murdered, everyone believes it's Marcello...and they could be right.

Sequel to Moving world's but can be read as stand alone It is the best feeling ever, so great that you can't truly describe it. It's something otherworldly, a deep connection that consumes you. When I had met him it was like I had a tumour, it had started in my heart. Before metastasising, spreading to every depth of my body. A disease that doesn't need treatment, an illness that becomes the only thing keeping you going. He saved me and cursed me at the same time, a curse that leaves me eternally his." Zephaniah softly told him, her eyes distant, her feelings resurfacing.

a Slow burn, dark romance/thriller centered around grief, power, and dangerous attraction. The story follows Olivia, an artist trying to rebuild her life after an abusive relationship, and Julian, a controlled but violent man. Their worlds collide and what starts as protection slowly turns into something far more consuming. The story includes heavy themes (violence, grief, toxic relationships, explicit content later on), so it may not be for everyone. Read the warnings before you read the book. This story is being told over 4 books and it gets darker. Every 5 chapters something dramatic will happen. 🖤🩶🤍

✶⋆.˚ I'd love to be in love with you enough to write a love song ˚.⋆✶ Rowan knows how to leave. She leaves conversations unfinished, feelings unspoken, doors cracked just enough to escape when things get heavy. Loving people has always felt like a promise she isn't sure she can keep, or that she is deserving of. She keeps herself moving, distracted, unavailable. Alone is safer. Alone doesn't ask her to stay. Awsten knows how to wait. He waits through missed calls, delayed responses and her processing all that has gotten her to this point. He sees the way she feels everything quietly, how she wants to be needed but is terrified of needing anyone back. He knows that loving her can at times feel exhausting but loving her is still the easiest thing he's ever done. What they share lives in the in-between. Between almost and never, between reaching out and holding back. It's the kind of connection that drains you and fills you all at once, the kind that makes you wonder if wanting someone is the same as being able to keep them. Rowan wants nothing more than to feel like she is deserving of love and can give that same love back. Awsten is left to decide how long he can keep waiting for someone who might always choose to be alone. Because the truth is, love can be devastating, inconvenient, and terrifying especially when it comes to letting someone see all of you.
