When preservationist Celeste Carter is hired to oversee the restoration of the historic Fairmont Theater, she expects a battle with real estate developer Adrian Hawthorne—not a descent into a decades-old mystery. The once-grand theatre holds a dark past, tied to a devastating fire in 1948 that killed a young actress named Evelyn Ross. The official story claims it was an accident. But the deeper Celeste digs, the more she realizes that someone is desperate to keep the truth buried. Strange occurrences at the Fairmont—ghostly whispers, missing records, and a mysterious informant—convince Celeste that Evelyn’s spirit is trying to communicate. When anonymous threats escalate into physical attacks, she and Adrian uncover a sinister conspiracy that dates back to the theatre’s original owner, Nathaniel Wren. But Wren wasn’t the only one involved. Powerful men in Port Bellingham conspired to cover up the truth—and some of them are still alive. With danger closing in, Celeste and Adrian must navigate a maze of deception, corruption, and long-buried secrets. If they expose the past, they could bring justice to Evelyn after seventy-five years. But someone is willing to do anything to stop them. And the Fairmont isn’t the only place haunted by its history.

Ella Foster is a self-proclaimed genius, coffee addict, and all-around bookworm. But when she wakes up inside her favorite 1800s historical romance novel, she's not the beautiful heroine or even the fabulous villainess. Nope. She's Eleanor Fletcher, a 17-year-old orphaned commoner with zero importance to the story-a complete throwaway character. No grand destiny. No powerful connections. Just poverty, a bakery job, and shoes so uncomfortable they might be a crime. Armed with her modern-day knowledge and fueled by a mix of sheer determination and sarcasm, Ella decides she's not going to be just another background extra. She's got a plan: open a shop, create mind-blowing inventions, and maybe even introduce indoor plumbing (these people have no idea what they're missing). Filled with humor, heart, and a dash of romance, I've Been Novelled! is a fun, clever twist on the isekai genre, where one girl's genius inventions-and a touch of 21st-century sass-might just change the course of a very different history.

Ethan T. Carter had it all in his world—wealth, a loving family, supportive friends, and a promising future. But when a devastating diagnosis cuts his life short, he is offered an impossible choice by an otherworldly system: be transported to another world, Valoria, and earn the title of Hero—or die in less than 365 days (one year). Upon accepting, Ethan awakens in Valoria, a world brimming with magic, kingdoms, and legendary heroes. However, his new life is far from easy. His family, though retaining their same personalities, are now commoners instead of the wealthy figures they were in his previous life. To make matters more challenging, all of his close friends from Earth seem to be strangers in this world. Ethan realizes that the only chance to extend his life is to join the prestigious Hero Academy, where participants from across the land compete for the honor of being one of their kingdom’s chosen heroes. The academy is brutal, with each trial a test of survival. While no one dies during the competition, participants are eliminated one by one until only seven remain.

The competition is fierce, with everyone vying for the limited spots, knowing that only by becoming a hero can they fulfill their destiny in Valoria. As Ethan battles through each trial, he finds himself face-to-face with some of his old friends from Earth—though in this world, they do not recognize him. Strangers with familiar faces now compete alongside him, and Ethan must navigate the complex emotions of seeing his loved ones, knowing they no longer remember who he is. With time running out, and only 365 days to secure his survival, Ethan is thrust into a high-stakes journey filled with danger, rivalries, and alliances. The path to becoming a hero is riddled with traps, magic, and strategic challenges. But Ethan must succeed—for failure means the end of his life, in both Valoria and beyond.

The clock is ticking, and the title of Hero is his only hope.
