Strike Softly | Karate Kid

Andrea_Johnson800
When the LaRusso family moves to Southern California, Jennifer LaRusso expects sun, beaches, and a fresh start. She doesn’t expect to watch her older brother get humiliated by Cobra Kai’s golden boy. Johnny Lawrence is everything Jennifer hates — proud, ruthless, untouchable. And when he makes Daniel his favorite target, Jennifer decides she won’t stand by and cry. She’ll do something smarter. Instead of fighting the snake… she’ll charm it. Jennifer pretends to admire Johnny. Laughs at his jokes. Softens his edges. Slowly, carefully, she works her way past his guard — all to stop him from hurting her brother before the All Valley Tournament. It’s just a strategy. Until it isn’t. Because beneath the arrogance, Johnny isn’t what she expected. And the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real and what was part of the plan. But Cobra Kai doesn’t believe in softness. And when John Kreese begins to suspect that Johnny is hesitating… someone will have to pay for that weakness. With Daniel training in secret under Mr. Miyagi and the tournament drawing closer, loyalties fracture, hearts betray, and the line between manipulation and love begins to blur. Jennifer thought she could strike softly. She didn’t realize soft things can break the hardest.

Crimson Moon Awakening

A blood-red moon. One ordinary night. And a world that would never be the same again. After an unforgettable night party, sixteen college friends from Royal Crest University witness a mysterious crimson moon hanging above Asteria City. They dismiss it as a rare celestial event and return home, unaware that their lives have already been chosen by fate. When morning comes, the sun never rises. Darkness blankets the world. The moon is gone. And everything has changed. One by one, strange powers begin awakening within them. Werewolves, vampires, phoenixes, sirens, witches, demons, dragons, and other ancient bloodlines emerge from the shadows of myth. Each power comes with its own gifts, rules, and deadly consequences. But among them is one person who remains ordinary. Trisha Hunters. No powers. No special abilities. Nothing. At least, that's what everyone believes. Unbeknownst to her, Trisha carries a forgotten bloodline older than gods and monsters alike—the power of the Primordial Dragon Phoenix, a legendary existence capable of creation and destruction. Her awakening could either save this dark new world... or reduce it to ashes. As ancient enemies awaken and hidden kingdoms emerge from the darkness, the group is thrust into a dangerous journey filled with betrayal, secrets, romance, and war. At Trisha's side stands her boyfriend, Liam Jackson, a powerful Moon Werewolf who would burn the world before allowing anyone to harm her. But in a realm where monsters wear human faces and destiny demands sacrifices, can love survive when the girl he swore to protect becomes the very being everyone wants to possess, control, or kill? The Blood Moon has risen. The heirs of myth have awakened. And the world without dawn is only the beginning.
