About the book
Night brings monsters. It also brings Aria.
I hunt because mercy would kill us. Tormented by visions and the evils I have witnessed, I keep my oaths and my distance until she appears each night to stand at my side.
When the unseen war spills into daylight, Aria is threatened and every rule I swore is tested. Protecting her means breaking vows that have kept me alive.
Love could be our salvation or our ruin. Allies become enemies, rituals demand blood, and ordinary faces hide terrible things closing in. If I fail, Aria dies and the darkness wins. Every choice reverberates across futures not yet born. There is no going back ever.
I will burn the world to keep her, even if it consumes me.

About the book
I was born to kill the emperor, but first, I must marry him.
I trained as an assassin while my twin sister trained to be the empress. My life will be forfeit once I murder the most powerful man on the continent, but I have no choice. If I fail, the Imperium will consume our nation and anyone who rises against them.
Too soon, we walk into the glittering imperial court, each step taking us closer to the dangerous man on the black throne, my sister’s future husband, the newly crowned Emperor of the Southern Imperium. Emperor Tallu has more spies than fish in the sea. He poisoned his own father to secure the golden crown.
When his sharp eyes skim over us, they don’t catch on my sister. They land on me, his killer.
“I choose you, Prince Airón of the Northern Kingdom. You will be my consort.” Tallu’s smile is mirthless. “Or I will reduce your entire nation to ashes.”
Betrothed to the Emperor ends with more story to tell, but the characters end on a HFN.

About the book
Play for a husband. Don't fall for his enemies...
As the second-born princess of a kingdom conquered by a brutal empire, I'm nothing but a pawn. Little do I expect my parents to arrange my marriage to the most powerful bachelor of all: the son of the emperor himself.
But when I arrive at the imperial palace, I discover I must compete for my betrothed—vying with the court noblewomen in a series of humiliating trials to prove our devotion.
Those who fail will be executed.
For the sake of my country, I'll risk my life to win my husband—this sadistic man who applauds the torment and flaunts his lovers.
Unfortunately, my scheming competitors aren't my only enemies. The emperor's royal wards—princes of other conquered domains, held hostage to ensure their families' obedience—lurk in the shadows.
They see me as a traitor, prostrating myself for our tyrants' approval. The perfect target for their bottled rage. They'll do whatever they can to distract me, unsettle me... ruin me.
Forbidden as they are, I can't help being drawn in by their seductive wiles. Behind their simmering fury, their pain and broken hopes call to me.
They might be just the allies I need to save my life and my kingdom. But only if I can conquer these wicked men before I lose my heart.
A Game of Veils is the first in a new fantasy romance series with a sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance, smoldering morally grey men, and a determined heroine they'll regret underestimating.

Between curious coworkers, suspicious cops, and his inconveniently mortal heart, Griffin must learn to survive the twenty-first century—and the woman who broke his curse.
As sparks fly and scandals mount, Emily wonders if a man from another time can fit into her life. Or if their love will crumble faster than a museum exhibit under Griffin’s armored elbow.

When Malik rigs his way into the contest, they are set on a heart-pounding course to destroy each other. But as attraction flares between them and ancient evils stir, will they be able to see their tasks to the death?
