About the book
Blood was always her currency. Now it’s the only thing keeping her alive.
Kyit Vale was meant to die on the execution block.
Instead, the Empire sentenced her to something worse: a suicide mission into the haunted mountains, chained to the knights who would bleed her dry before offering mercy.
Among them is Harrow—the silent, silver-eyed knight who watched her fall and did nothing. The one whose hands hold her life now more than the blade at her throat.
In a world where memories become monsters and loyalty is a weapon, Kyit must survive betrayal, starvation, and the terrifying hunger of her enemies—and her allies.
But survival costs more than blood.
It costs secrets. Names. Trust.
And when forbidden magic stirs inside her veins, and the soulbond myths wake from the ruins, Kyit faces a terrible choice:
Save the Empire that broke her—Or burn it with the one knight she was never meant to love.

About the book
A broke college grad with bad luck. A demon who refuses to leave my couch.
I was just trying to manifest some abundance. Light a candle, chant a little, maybe get lucky with rent money.
Instead, I woke up to six feet of smug, tattooed demon lounging in my living room, eating my cereal and mocking my life choices.
Apparently, I signed some kind of contract, and now he can’t leave until he fulfills a “favor.” Which, so far, has meant reorganizing my kitchen, sabotaging my dating apps, and making suggestive comments every time I so much as look at him.
Asmodeus is arrogant, ridiculously hot, and way too domestic for someone who claims to be an ancient being of darkness. And the longer he sticks around, the more suspicious I get.
Because his idea of a “favor” doesn’t look like torment at all. It looks a lot like trying to win my heart.

About the book
'Funny, daring, and romantic, you’ll always have a good time with Kate Johnson' Sarah Rees Brennan, author of Long Live Evil
‘What’s so funny?’ she snapped.
He wanted to brush away that sweaty hair from her nape and kiss her there. His fingers remembered the heat and silk of her skin when he’d unfastened her dress. The scent of her, warm and rich, still lived in his mind. He wanted to lick the salt from her skin.
Remember you can’t have her. ‘Nothing,’ he said. ‘At all.’ He stood and extended his hand. ‘Your vessel awaits.’
In a world without magic, only the cunning survive…
In a realm where magic has vanished and a kingdom teeters on the brink, Ember Hart, a master thief with a hidden past, is thrust into a strange new world and a destiny she never sought. Anointed as ‘the Promised One’, she is bound by a twisted prophecy into an unholy union with the kingdom’s beastly prince. Rumours of his brutality haunt the palace halls.
But Ember is no sacrificial lamb.
Forming a precarious alliance with the dangerous Rhaell, Captain of the Guard, Ember seizes the chance to return home by helping to restore the kingdom’s lost magic. In this land of danger and desire, can she reclaim her freedom or, with every barb and bated breath, will her growing awareness of Rhaell risk everything she yearns for?

About the book
Who needs a handsome prince when you have a dragon and the courage to choose your own destiny?
When Lady Fern defies her parents plans to marry her off to a cruel noble, she earns herself exile instead. But Fern has no intention of fading quietly into the background. With her queen dragon, Auren, she enrolls at the Royal Rider Academy, the one place where strength, skill, and bond matter more than bloodlines.
Life as a cadet is not as carefree as she imagined. There are few queen dragons left in Nevermere and that means every man and his dragon are focussed on Fern.
Including them
Silver dragons have been extinct for a thousand years, yet now they have appeared on the horizon. Their riders descend with one purpose: to claim Fern and Auren.
Caught between rival cadets, awakening powers, and three mysterious riders who insist she belongs to them, Fern must decide what kind of rider she wants to be… and whether freedom means flying solo, or daring to trust the ones who burn for her.
This is a full length, 150K word romantasy book.
It is a dragon rider romantasy series set in the same world as The Dragon Queen, but you do not have to have read those books for this to make sense.
In this world, dragons are best friends with their bonded, not romantic partners.

About the book
A dark prince. A forced marriage. A dragon bond that could change everything.
I never asked to be sold to the royal family—or to be married off in some bizarre, ancient ritual. My new husband, the Crown Prince, made it clear I wasn’t wanted. Fine. I didn’t want him either.
But his older brother? The one they keep locked in the shadows? He’s the one I can’t stop thinking about.
Xaren is all hard muscle, brutal scars, and growled warnings. He says his Drake is too dangerous—that I’m safer far away from him.
Too bad the Queen has other plans…
She orders me to his bed, demands I give the kingdom an heir—and soon.
Now I’m trapped with a man who thinks he’s too broken to touch me… and too dangerous to want me.
But every time we’re alone, I see the truth in his eyes.
He burns for me…just as much as I burn for him.
Bride of the Black Dragon is a spicy, slow-burn romantasy featuring a tortured, scarred alpha, a curvy heroine with forbidden magic, enemies-to-lovers heat, Dragon Shifters, dungeon shadows, royal politics, and a twist you won’t see coming.

About the book
You know what's worse than my ex-husband?
The apocalypse.
That's why I’m putting the past behind me as I drag my best friends to safety. My ranch is the perfect place for us to lay low while the world falls apart—as long as I can survive the small-town drama.
But I wasn't expecting to come face-to-face with a smoking-hot trespasser who says he owns my property now. Kieran has another thing coming if he thinks he's staying on my land. I don't care if he's working for the government or trying to solve some sort of apocalyptic prophecy that might involve me and my friends.
I’m definitely not swooning over his brooding scowl or beautiful eyes that seem to stare into the depths of my soul while he warns me to stay away.
He doesn't scare me.
Even if he does have wings.
And a tail.
And…
Um…
Did he just turn into a dragon?
