Kristen Ashley River Rain Series

A fresh new take on dual narrative storytelling, blending awkward high school crush conversations with the thrill of slicing off a three-headed dungeon beast’s heads. Ranjiro Akizora is the fearless samurai who protects villages from goblin hordes, shadow beasts, and crooked bandits. At least... on paper. In reality? He’s a third-year high school nobody. No friends, no social skills, and a Charisma stat that might as well be negative. His only real strength? A dangerously overdeveloped hyper-imagination and a homebrewed fantasy role-playing game no one’s ever played, because no one’s ever asked. But it’s his final year. One last chance to roll for initiative in real life. So, he does the unthinkable: starts a club. A tabletop club. Safe, nerdy, low risk. Until two of the school’s most terrifyingly beautiful girls show up. The kind you’d expect on magazine covers, not sitting at a nerd’s table. One rules the hallways like a pop idol in a student council blazer: all perfect grades, perfect smile, and a voice that could convince anyone to follow her lead. The other doesn’t speak unless it matters, and when it does, it cuts through you like a spell. They’re the queens of campus, untouchable and untouching… until they pull up chairs, roll the dice, and crash into Ranjiro’s world like a divine punishment written by the gods of chaos and romance alike. What started as a simple roleplaying game unravels into something far more dangerous. A shared world where unspoken feelings take shape, hidden truths bleed into fantasy, and every choice reveals more than anyone intended. The characters they play begin to echo the parts of themselves they keep buried: the longing, the fear, the jealousy, the hope. And the deeper the story goes, the harder it becomes to tell where the fantasy ends… and their real selves begin. Because in this game, it’s not just monsters they’re facing. It’s each other. And maybe the scariest part isn’t what happens in the world they built… but what it brings out of them when the game ends. Critical Hit Series! is a genre-bending love letter to both shounen adventure and shoujo romance. A dual narrative that turns the everyday into the epic, and makes you wonder: When does pretending stop being pretend?

After Mal is kidnapped by Empress Lillith and ripped out of her universe, Maliza soon starts having premonitions about her abduction.

That was until everything soon starts to go downhill when the multiverse begins collapsing all around them. Universes are being targeted one by one, and it is up to Maliza and the rest of her family to try and figure out a way to stop the multiverse from falling apart before the whole realm of existence turns into ruins. *** (A/N: I do not owe any of the things that are mentioned here: DC Dreamworks Disney Shonen Jump)

Aerish Elowen has loved Kael Renford for years but he doesn’t even know her name. Every day, she watches him from across the library, writing silent notes in her journal words meant for him, never to be sent. He once gave her a pen on a rainy day. He forgot. She never did. Now, Aerish begins to leave behind pieces of her heartnhidden notes tucked between pages of old poetry books. What if, one day, he reads them? What if love can find its voice through the quiet?

A haunted river. A grieving town. A detective running out of time. When the peaceful riverside town of Ọ̀yán is shaken by a string of mysterious drownings, Detective Kareem is assigned the one case no one wants. Each victim dies with the same haunting last word: “Ẹ̀nítàn.” What begins as a local investigation soon unravels a buried legend—of a betrayed river spirit, a sacred curse, and ancestral silence that demands to be broken. As Kareem digs deeper, the river begins to whisper his name too. Whispers by the River is a supernatural mystery inspired by African spirituality, where truth is hidden beneath water, and justice comes with a price.

When a mutilated corpse is found by a sacred river in a quiet West African village, a troubled detective teams up with a spiritual elder and a young woman with a mysterious past to uncover a centuries-old curse tied to a drowned river queen—one whose song was silenced, and who now demands the world listen.

Somewhere beneath the surface, beyond the cold water and the mist, something was calling me. Something I was meant to find. The kind of thing you only discover when you’re willing to lose everything. The rain carried a name I didn’t know yet — but soon, I would learn to say it.

In the quiet rhythm of falling rain, echoes of a forgotten past whisper through the soul of a young woman named Ruelle. Living an ordinary life, she is unaware that her fate was sealed long ago—on a night soaked in blood, betrayal, and silence. But someone remembers. A powerful book hidden within a small bookstore holds secrets that once shattered lives. As shadows stir and an ancient curse resurfaces, the lines between past and present begin to blur. Will Ruelle uncover the truth before the storm returns? Or will history repeat itself? A gripping tale of mystery, love, and destiny—where every raindrop carries a memory, and every glance hide a secret

In a dystopian future where Vampires emerged from the shadows in order to stop humanity from becoming extinct, a young woman with a dark past meets a charismatic stranger.

Battling rogue vampires, mutated creatures and her own past, Love works to unravel the mysteries behind the secretive Helsing unit, and tries to become the bridge between humans and vampires in a world filled with discrimination. This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition and the early world and character building, BUT everything kicks into gear after the turning point in the latter half of Volume 1, and especially Volume 2, where the tone of the novel shifts. So, I hope you stick with it and enjoy the wild ride! I also added some song recommendations along the way to listen to whilst you read certain chapters, I hope this helps boost the experience.

Cynthia Fola is a woman who seems to have it all. A celebrated author. A loving wife. A devoted mother. Her books have touched hearts across the world, yet the story she’s never told is the one still bleeding inside her. Six years ago, in the silence of her apartment, she miscarried a child she never told anyone about. Not her friends. Not her therapist. Not even Damson, the man whose name she whispered through the pain. He left her soon after, never knowing what she lost. She never asked why. She just survived. Now living in quiet elegance with her husband Levi and their son Adam, Cynthia has carefully rebuilt a life that looks whole. But when a professional event in Dubai brings Damson back into view — older, bolder, and standing on the very stage she’s meant to own — the walls she’s held up begin to crack. Memories return with force. Her body remembers the ache. Her heart remembers the silence. And in the glow of chandeliers and applause, she is forced to confront the love that left her, the pain that shaped her, and the truth she buried beneath success. Cry Me a River is a lyrical, unflinching portrait of grief, motherhood, marriage, and memory. It is the story of a woman who gave everything to protect someone’s dream, only to nearly die in the process — and what happens when that dream returns, asking for her voice again.

Yuki Hoshino lives a quiet life, painting the world she’s too afraid to feel. Ever since a childhood storm took her parents, she’s feared the rain—and the emotions it brings. Then she meets Ren Sakamoto: drenched, smiling, and full of questions about clouds and wind. Their paths cross on the first rainy day of the semester, and for the first time, Yuki begins to see the rain not as a threat, but a memory—one she’s finally brave enough to revisit. As the skies clear between them, so do the shadows of their pasts. But just when Yuki begins to open up, Ren vanishes without a word. Left with only fragments—a broken umbrella, an unfinished letter, and the memory of his smile—Yuki must confront the storm inside her to uncover what really happened. Can love find its way back when the rain falls again?

Some say that if you search long enough, you can find the ones you’ve lost. But not every path is meant to be walked. Not every door should be opened. And not every guide wears a human face. Beyond the storm lies a place where the living brush against the forgotten. There are paths made of thread, bridges of silence, and houses that remember. But the price of finding what was lost may be losing yourself entirely. And some bridges, once crossed, never let you back. That's a little spooky, isn't it? Hehe!

A mystical, emotional saga blending ancient clans, lost tech, and hidden magic—Trident follows a marked boy and his shadowed twin as destiny awakens. For fans of fantasy, mystery, and meaning.

It was the season of rain when I first heard those melodies. Under the drenching sky, I was counting the sorrows of my life, While someone else was embracing each moment of theirs with the falling raindrops. And then, that voice... Soft, yet reaching straight to the heart- "Live, for life is but one-stay happy and spread it around. We are companions in this journey till death... Just give me your hand..." There was something magical in those words. It felt as if the rain had touched my sorrows, As if someone had called my name, As if an unseen hand was pulling me out of the darkness.. A rule-following girl who lived in fear, always hesitant. Her dreams were different, but she walked a path shaped by others' desires. She always thought about fulfilling others' wishes, suppressing her own voice, too afraid to stand up for herself. In the process of making others happy, she had lost herself. She was tired of living like this, and slowly, she realized—she wanted to be somewhere else, but she was heading in a completely different direction. On the other side was Sean—a boy who lived life with happiness, a breathtakingly handsome and popular guy at his school. A constant smile adorned his face. He, too, had his own sorrows, but he never let them weigh him down. His only belief was: "Stay happy and make others happy." Music was his dream, and he lived life on his own terms. What will happen when, on a cold, rainy night, the strings of their lives intertwine? Will their lives change too? —THE HYMN OF THE RAIN

They are neither aliens nor the product of dark magic. So, what exactly are these bizarre creatures that have been secretly colonizing Earth? This world has never known peace—only a ceaseless cycle of war, suffering, and loss. Families have been torn apart, fathers are becoming sonless, mothers are becoming daughterless, and somehow, it still isn’t enough. The darkness only grows stronger. In the midst of this chaos, Nas and his devoted companions find themselves battling the dreaded Legion of Chaos. But just as their fight seems hopeless, they inadvertently stumble upon something entirely unexpected—an unidentified force that may hold the key to defeating these creatures. A weapon or a power so potent, it could turn the tide of the war in their favor. But the discovery comes with a chilling uncertainty. What exactly have they uncovered? What are the true costs of unleashing such a force? The answers are far from clear, and the stakes are higher than ever. Could this power be their salvation, or is it merely a trap, leading them into an even darker future? The fate of their world depends on their next move, but the question remains: Is this newfound strength enough to stop the creatures, or is it just another illusion, another false hope dangling before them? Though Nas stands as the hero of this war, each of his companions holds an indispensable role in the battle. The fate of everyone they love, and the future of Earth itself, rests on their unity and resolve. But how far are they willing to go to secure victory? What sacrifices will they have to make—and will they survive the cost? Hey everyone, I hope today is going well for everyone.

The rain never ceased. It fell in glittering sheets across a shattered landscape, soaking ash-covered ruins and roots that remembered too much. Long after the Garden devoured itself, and the Hollow King faded into rot and stillness, something ancient began to wake beneath the dirt. Kaien was born from that silence—branded, forgotten, and buried by a past he can't outrun. He has no legacy, only a sword that should no longer exist and memories that don't belong to him. When he joins paths with Eris, a survivor marred by the Garden’s corruption, and Ilya, a girl who sketches what hasn't happened yet, their fates begin to intertwine beneath the black rain. Something is drawing them east—through the remnants of the Sovereign’s vaults, past fields of salt and memory. Whispers become louder. Pendants bloom like seeds. And under every foot, the dirt remembers. This isn’t a story of heroes. This is a story of what rises from the wreckage. Of those who choose what to bury—and what to become.

Every Friday, Aarav came to the same café — not for company, but for quiet. A steaming cup of ginger tea, a window view of the rain, and silence were enough. Until Meera arrived — soaked in stormwater, full of quiet energy, and carrying her own kind of stillness. What began as shared space slowly turned into shared stories, quiet rituals, and gentle longing. But when dreams pull Meera away to the mountains of Manali, a letter replaces presence, and time becomes the true test of love. “Tea & Rain” is a soft, soul-stirring romance about the comfort of routine, the ache of absence, and the beauty of waiting for the right season to return. Some stories don’t end. They just pause.

Synopsis – A Letter Every Rain Every monsoon, a letter appears on the old wooden bench at the corner of Miran Street — unsigned, unstamped, sealed with care. For years, no one has seen who leaves them or who they’re meant for. But when Ayaan, a quiet bookstore owner haunted by past regrets, finds one meant for him, it awakens a mystery he thought was buried in time. Drawn into the rhythm of these yearly letters, Ayaan begins to uncover a story of love lost in silence, promises written in raindrops, and a woman he once knew — or thought he did. As the rains return, so do memories, regrets, and the whisper of something unfinished. Set against the lyrical backdrop of endless grey skies and letters that hold more than just words, A Letter Every Rain is a tender exploration of time, grief, and the messages we leave behind when words are all we have left.
