    Indila Cotts, a Hollywood sweetheart, has a past she'd rather forget. But, when her secrets threaten to surface, alongside a mounting mafia debt, she's faced with two options: run or risk losing everything. And Indila is not willing to compromise anything, even if it means fleeing to Canada with her clueless and charming co-star and sworn rival, David Lovac. Indila now undertakes a film from one of Hollywood's greatest auteurs. The catch? She must share the screen with her archnemesis and co-star, David. As filming abruptly wraps and the mafia closes in, Indila makes a split-second choice to disappear, dragging the bumbling David into a cross-border mess of fake identities, snowy hideouts, and unexpected chemistry. Enemies-to-lovers meets mob hunts in this high-stakes romantic comedy, where dodging the mafia and falling in love might be the riskiest move of all. *New chapters almost every Monday* Brief references to criminal activity.

    It is the story of Raina-a quiet girl with a loud heart-unfolding her voice in a world that taught her to whisper. When silence becomes too heavy to carry, Raina begins to write, speak, and ultimately live for herself. Through lost dresses, whispered poetry, and the wild ache of choosing freedom over certainty, she finds family in friends, love in unexpected places, and courage in saying "not yet" to the things she's not ready for. From kitchens lit by soft rebellion to gardens glowing with birthday candles, this is a coming-of-age story wrapped in rhythm, quiet defiance, and gentle victories. It's about growing, leaving, and the beautiful audacity of not waiting to be ready before you begin. *A story for the soft-spoken, the slow-blooming, and everyone who ever needed to become their own permission.* *"I'm stepping into the world as a new author-my voice is fresh, my story is raw, and all I ask is that you give it a read before you decide."*

    Ebène had always been a master of masks. To the world, she was quirky, fun, and effortlessly charming, the girl who could laugh off any awkward moment, who kept the mood light even when the air was suffocating. But inside, she was a contradiction-deeply reflective, painfully self-aware, and weighed down by the knowledge that she would never belong. At twenty-five, she was still purple. A child in the eyes of society. A fraud in her own. ---- The world they lived in was a cruel result of humanity's past mistakes. A combination of all the wars and the wrath of Mother Nature had unleashed gases that fused with the air, triggering genetic mutations. Babies were no longer naturally conceived; they were grown in incubators, implanted with the necessary microchips at formation. The world could not sustain unchecked reproduction, and so society was engineered. You had sixty years, sometimes less. By eighteen, you had to prove your worth. By then, you had to bleed something other than purple blood. You shall pass your biannual MRI test with success. They monitor the tree growing within yourself - color, type, leaves and the curves of the roots.

    Who Is Eve? is a speculative exploration of identity, grief, and agency-set against a backdrop of layered memory and multiversal resonance. At its heart is a young woman trying to hold onto what matters, even as everything around and within her shifts. She just wanted to save her father. Now she's carrying lifetimes of memories.
