Every growth guide is written by someone who had a war chest. Burn millions on ads, buy a growth team, brute-force your way to scale. That's not a playbook — that's a budget. And if you're bootstrapped, it'll bury you.
Cookie-Led Growth (CLG) is the opposite. It's the discipline of finding your cookie: one weird, creative, relationship-driven growth mechanism that lands your best customers at a fraction of the cost of paid ads — and compounds. Named as a deliberate riff on Product-Led Growth, CLG is what you do when you can't buy growth and have to engineer it instead.

Some loves are born in the light. Others thrive in the shadows of a broken mind. Ivy Monroe is a ghost in her own life. A freelance archivist who finds safety in dusty basements and silent libraries, she has built a fortress around her heart to keep the trauma of her past at bay. But then she sees him: Brooks Sterling. From her bench in the park, he is everything she needs him to be—a savior, a soulmate, a dream she can curate from a distance. But fantasies are fragile things. When the vibrant and predatory Keira Vance begins a very public pursuit of Brooks, Ivy’s silent devotion turns into a frantic, desperate obsession. As she spirals from distant admirer to silent stalker, the walls between her imagination and reality begin to crumble. How far will Ivy go to protect a relationship that only exists in her head? And what happens when she discovers that Brooks is hiding secrets far darker than her own? Through His Eyes and Hers is a chilling psychological thriller that delves into the fractured psyche of a woman who would rather lose her mind than lose her fantasy.
His mother’s dying wish is impossible: “Find me.”
Leo Maquari never really believed Prometheus brought civilization back from the brink of extinction. But when his mother passes, restless dreams plague him, warning him of the torments that await her if he can’t bring her spirit peace. Guided by visions he’s long denied, he descends into the Underworld, where primordial monsters roam, deceased relatives live, and long-buried secrets come to light. But the deeper Leo travels, the clearer it becomes that his greatest trial is not death itself, but what awaits him on the surface.
