In A Silver Garden With You

Beyond the Silver Linings

Azra Amarante seems to have it all—a family name well-known in high society, a childhood spent in luxury, and a future paved with opportunity. As the youngest daughter of a discreetly wealthy family, her life could be filled with elite parties, designer clothes, and prestigious circles. Her parents are pillars of success: her mother a celebrated fashion designer and her father the owner of a renowned car empire, with siblings who embody ambition and success in various fields. Azra, however, has chosen a different path. Defying expectations, she becomes a teacher at San Miguel University, a humble institution in a quiet neighboring town, where her life takes a simpler yet more purposeful turn. In the close-knit community, Azra’s grace, intelligence, and gentle strength quickly draw attention—not just for her family name, but for her genuine passion for teaching. She becomes the unexpected heart of the campus, adored by students and quietly admired by her colleagues. But as her influence grows, so does the quiet tension between her chosen life and the world she left behind. Despite her desire for simplicity, her family’s legacy looms over her like an unbreakable shadow, with subtle pressures from her mother and siblings reminding her of the life she could have had. In her classroom, Azra encounters students who are fighting their own battles, especially Mateo, a young man torn between the responsibilities to his family and the dreams he barely dares to voice. Through her role as a mentor and confidante, Azra begins to understand the weight of her own choices. Her encounter with Marco, a mysterious transfer student with his own secrets and a knack for unsettling truths, further challenges her carefully constructed life. He sees through the polished exterior to the woman who has defied expectations and lived on her own terms—a rare sight in his world and one that intrigues him. As her students reveal their dreams, fears, and resilience, Azra finds herself reflecting on her own identity. Caught between two worlds, she must grapple with her deepest desires, her family’s legacy, and the lasting question: Can she truly escape the life she was born into, or will she find a way to bring her two worlds together? In Azra’s Choice, readers will journey through a story of love, ambition, and the search for identity, as one woman confronts the sacrifices and unexpected rewards of living a life on her own terms.

The thief of silver and souls

Title: The Thief of Silver and Souls In the shadows of a kingdom where silver is prized above all and souls can be traded like coins, Zia Renaud is a name that strikes fear and fascination. Known as the Thief of Silver and Souls, she's a daring rogue with a hidden purpose: to avenge the family that was taken from her and to unravel the mystery of her origins. But Zia's latest heist comes with an unexpected twist. When she steals an ancient silver amulet rumored to bind souls, she finds herself entangled with Leon, a cursed prince whose spirit is trapped within the amulet, and Alaric, a mysterious and charming rival thief with secrets of his own. Together, they must navigate a world filled with dangerous magic, underground markets, and ruthless sorcerers—all while racing to uncover the truth behind the amulet's powers and to keep their own dark pasts from consuming them. As alliances blur and passion ignites, Zia will face the ultimate choice: protect her own freedom, or save the souls of those she's come to care for. --- Characters: 1. Zia Renaud The Thief of Silver and Souls. A fearless and witty master thief with a knack for outsmarting anyone who gets in her way. Though she's quick with a blade and quicker with her words, she guards her past closely. Zia is driven by a desire for revenge and freedom, hiding a heart more compassionate than she lets on. 2. Leon Elara The Cursed Prince. Once heir to the throne, Leon's spirit has been bound to a powerful amulet that Zia steals. Trapped and unable to move beyond the amulet's reach, Leon is both Zia's reluctant ally and a source of hidden wisdom, with knowledge of dark magic and court secrets. He carries a tragic history and a hope for redemption. 3. Alaric Draven The Rival Thief. Mysterious, charming, and equally skilled, Alaric has crossed paths with Zia before, and their tension is electric. While he keeps his motives guarded, he's drawn to Zia's fire and the danger that surrounds her. Alaric has ties to the kingdom's criminal underworld and harbors his own reasons for seeking the amulet. 4. Madame Seraphine The Soul Broker. A powerful sorceress who traffics in rare magic and lives off stolen souls. She's the dark force behind the amulet's creation and has a personal vendetta against Zia. Manipulative and vengeful, she'll stop at nothing to reclaim what Zia has taken. 5. Emory Gray The Healer. A gentle but skilled healer who helps Zia after a close escape. Emory has a surprising knowledge of ancient magic, and though he avoids conflict, he becomes a steadfast ally in Zia's quest. His presence in the story adds a balance of calm and support. 6. Lady Isolde The Noblewoman. Once close to Leon, Lady Isolde is now a powerful figure in the royal court, respected for her intelligence and rumored to be ruthless. She has her own reasons for getting involved with Zia's journey, and her loyalty is never quite clear, making her a mysterious and unpredictable presence.
