Sci-Fi · First Contact
Our take
When a massive alien craft enters the solar system, a team of explorers ventures inside. What they find is awe-inspiring: a vast artificial world with seas, biots, and towering structures.

Leading them is a synthesist with a fractured mind, tasked with uniting this extraordinary crew.
But as they close in on the signal’s source, tensions rise, secrets surface, and the line between human and alien blurs. The true danger may not be what’s out there but what they’ve brought with them.

Moonfell was supposed to be a fresh start, but gruesome murders and buried secrets refuse to let her rest.
Magic of Blood and Ash
Romantasy · Urban Fantasy
Our take
Moonfell was supposed to be a fresh start, but gruesome murders and buried secrets refuse to let her rest. With a string of lifeless bodies, an enigmatic not-werecat with his own agenda, and a danger she can’t escape, a witch must uncover the truth—or risk becoming the town’s next victim.
Choose your retailer

For a witch with a haunted past, reconnecting with her quirky aunt and finding a slice of joy felt like a second chance. But peace doesn’t last long in Moonfell.
Bodies turn up lifeless and brutalized, sparking whispers of a rogue werewolf—or something worse. As she investigates, her path tangles with Dash, the mysterious not-werecat who once saved her life but now harbors secrets of his own.
Caught between her growing feelings for Dash and her duty to the town, the stakes rise. Each step uncovers darker truths, and each day brings her closer to the killer—or her own demise.
Will she uncover the danger in time, or will Moonfell claim her too?

Moonfell isn’t just her hometown—it’s a supernatural war zone.
Magic of Flame and Shadow
Romantasy · Urban Fantasy
Our take
Moonfell isn’t just her hometown—it’s a supernatural war zone. Returning was a mistake, but solving a werewolf’s brutal murder is the only way to stop a deadly force hunting her kind. With unreliable magic and a town full of secrets, she must confront her past or risk losing everything to an unstoppable evil.
Choose your retailer
About the book
A return to Moonfell was never in her plan. But then again, plans rarely survive murder.
When a teen werewolf’s gruesome death shakes the paranormal hotspot she fled two decades ago, a reluctant witch is forced back to uncover the truth. Her powers—wild, unpredictable, and anything but ordinary—make her a misfit even among misfits. But in Moonfell, secrets don’t stay buried, and allies are as scarce as trust.
As she untangles a web of supernatural drama—sexy, shadowy Blake, enigmatic witches, and a cat with far too much attitude—the stakes soar. Something hunts Moonfell’s creatures, and it won’t stop until they’re all gone.
With time slipping away, her only chance might mean confronting what she fears most: herself.
The question is—will Moonfell’s secrets destroy her before she cracks the case?
