Instead of finishing her senior year in peace, Lyla is horrified to discover that her dead ex has returned for revenge. This genre-bending supernatural thriller weaves elements of murder mystery, romance, high school drama, humor, and, of course, a terrifying ghost story. (Excerpt from "Her Terrifying Love") Jack's chest heaved. "You said he was dead." Lyla inched closer and whispered, "He had no pulse!" "Maybe he was just stunned." "We carried him all that way," she said. "He wasn't breathing." "But maybe he woke up after we left him down there." "Woke up?! His neck was broken." Jack hung his head. He couldn't make sense of this. "I know how this is gonna sound, but..." He choked on his words. "When I went to pick up my car from the body shop yesterday, he was standing across the street. Watching me." "Who was?!" "Keenan. I swear to God." "No way," she asserted. "That's crazy talk. He's dead." "It was him." Jack nodded. "He had a frickin' giant tattoo on his neck." A shiver flashed down Lyla's spine. Jack confirmed what she'd been dreading. He'd been seeing the ghost, too.

In the elite Arclight Academy, where aspiring riders forge unbreakable bonds with mythical creatures to wield immense power, eighteen-year-old Serenya Vale arrives as an outcast. Plagued by a mysterious, life-draining illness that leaves her frail and fading, she enters on a rare scholarship-mocked as a "charity case" unlikely to survive the brutal trials ahead. On her first day, a chilling encounter with the infamous third-year Kairen Draxen, a brooding dragon-bonded rider shrouded in living shadows, changes everything. When his darkness inadvertently brushes against her, it eases her constant pain for the first time in years, forging an inexplicable soulbond between them. Terrified yet drawn to the cold, emotionless boy who commands fear across the academy, Serenya discovers that his shadow magic recognizes something vital in her-a latent light that could heal or destroy them both. As training intensifies for the deadly bonding trials in the perilous Wilderness, Serenya must navigate ruthless rivals, hidden conspiracies threatening the academy, and her growing forbidden connection to Draxen. Together, their opposing forces of shadow and light awaken a rare twilight magic powerful enough to reshape the world-but at the risk of consuming them entirely. In a tale of resilience, forbidden romance, and the thin line between salvation and ruin, Serenya learns that true strength isn't found in health or power, but in embracing the darkness that binds her to life.

Sovarielle was born into a legacy of music and magic-one of the legendary sound dragons of Whispervale. But everything changed the day an attack stole her sense of smell, severing her from the bond that connects dragonkind. Exiled by instinct and grieving the loss of her family and horde, she vanished into the human world, learning to navigate life through sound instead of scent. In dragon society, scent is everything. It guides memory, emotion, and-most importantly-connection. It is how dragons recognize their mates. Without it, Sovarielle is considered broken, untethered... alone. Years later, a single misstep leads her back into dragon territory-and into a storm of long-forgotten alliances, mythical creatures, and rising tensions. From sirens guarding sacred seas to secretive centaurs with ancient wisdom, Sovarielle's path is shaped by those who see her not as damaged, but different. And as feelings deepen between her and a dragon who seems to know more than he says, she begins to wonder: If dragons find their mates by scent... will she ever truly know if she's found hers? A map of the country is included in the prologue, showing dragon territories, human cities, and key locations mentioned throughout the story. For readers who enjoy diving deeper, I've also created The Scentmarked Archive, which includes an interactive map and expanded lore exploring ancient dragon territories, mysterious islands, siren legends, shifter homelands, and more. You can find the link to the archive and map in my bio. Thank you so much for choosing to step into this world with me.
