Stalker, Eden West reviews are coming!
Stalker (Second Chances, #1)
My first book written in English language has been out for almost three weeks, and I've been avidly reading the reviews. I'm truly grateful to those who gave my book a chance despite knowing my limitations as a non-native English author. Thank you to all of you who were kind enough not to dislike the book despite my deficiencies and still praised me for some elements of the plot or the characters.
I've also taken the time to read negative reviews and tried to learn lessons for the future, aiming to improve myself and evolve as an author. I'm equally thankful for those of you who found yourselves in the middle, liking some parts of the book and criticizing others—your input has been incredibly valuable.
It's not always easy to put my 'children', as I call my books, out into the world for reviews, but it's a natural part of the process, and I'm in the ongoing learning curve.
I truly appreciate all of you who took the time to write your honest reviews, and I will continue striving to improve in my two new books that are coming very soon. I'm making the last adjustments, taking into account your opinions as well. I hope to earn your trust once more with my new books :)

Vigilante, Eden West - premieres in 2 days!
The premiere of 'Vigilante' is approaching, and here I want to say a few words.
The second installment of 'Second Chances' is more than just a book to me; it's my 'child', particularly because it's partly based on my real life, holding a special place in my heart.
Vigilante
The main character, Carter, is a portrayal of a person who struggles with a neurotic personality trait, and I can speak extensively about it, as I am such a person myself. Having difficulty dealing with even small stressors and normal life difficulties, I always felt I wasn't 'strong enough', constantly hearing, 'grow a thicker skin', but somehow, I just never could.
Vigilante's main hero draws heavily from my experiences, embodying anxiousness, constant rumination, and undermining his own worth. The other character, Josiah, is also based on a real person with whom I was in a relationship, and the healing journey happened in a real life in a very similar way as it's described in a book.
The book isn't an easy read, and it's certainly not for everyone, especially if you're looking for something light or quick-paced.
A word of warning: if you didn't enjoy 'Stalker', you may find some similar elements in 'Vigilante', such as obsessive behaviors, fetishization of certain body parts and types, and repetitive conclusions, with literal descriptions of emotions and reactions – which is just my thing.
Also, the main character's asexuality/demisexuality is not necessarily portrayed as a textbook example of those types of sexuality.
Despite it all, I wish you a pleasant read and hope you draw enjoyment from the book, as it takes you on quite an emotional journey with these two main characters,

Inside The Sun, Eden West - release day!
Today is release day for my new book, mafia / monster romance book: Inside the Sun! :)
It’s been a long journey for me - and definitely not an easy one - because this book is very different from what I usually write.
I’ve struggled with doubts about whether the level of violence and intensity would be accepted by my readers, but that’s something only time (and you!) will tell over the next few months.
I truly hope the book won’t disappoint you.
And if mafia themes aren’t your thing, don’t worry, the next book is already waiting in line, and it has a totally different tone!
Here are a few tropes you can expect in Inside the Sun:
🌞What to expect?🌞
🖤 MM mafia/monster omegaverse romance
💥 An untamable capo
☀️ An MC with a strong personality
⚡️ A different approach to mafia romance
🥶 Trapped with no way out
🥊 An MC who doesn’t save the world
⭐️ A long book but with a good pace
🔥 High lust, breeding s*x
🍂 Plot twists!
