BOOK 1 OF THE OATHBOUND DUOLOGY
The kingdom of Qecia is alive with celebration. A grand festival has been arranged; a moment of respite in a land still healing from the brutal deaths of its king and queen. Newly crowned at a young age, King Hendrix Adrinelle has worn the weight of his kingdom on weary shoulders ever since, struggling to balance duty with the life he never had the chance to live.
Amidst the festivities, a stranger arrives from a distant land ─ Reuben MacKenzie, a foreigner from the Scottish Highlands, whose presence immediately catches Hendrix's eye. Where Hendrix is poised and burdened by expectation, Reuben is untamed, unfiltered, and utterly free. Their meeting sparks an unlikely friendship, one that quickly deepens as Hendrix finds himself drawn to Reuben in a way he struggles to put into words.
But in the court of Qecia, danger lurks behind every mask, and the eyes of nobility are always watching. As Hendrix navigates treacherous political waters and the ever-present threat of betrayal, Reuben becomes an anchor he never expected ─ one that forces him to question whether a king can ever truly choose his own heart over his crown.
With the kingdom's future hanging in the balance, Hendrix must decide: follow the path carved for him, or risk everything for the one person who makes him feel free.

Bride of Alvar (Redemption Saga, Book 1)
*completed NOW A PUBLISHED NOVEL!* An ancient Cursed bloodline, a world-crossed romance, tyrant kings, a princess with dragon wings, a forbidden love affair, and a sorcerer meant to reign in chaos... this is the Redemption Saga. Bride of Alvar What if your entire life your mother declared you're destined to wed a king from a magical world? Would you believe her? Probably not. I didn't believe her either, until a handsome, other-worldly king showed up to claim me as his bride. Despite my annoying attraction to him, I let the magical king know about a complication: I'm already engaged to somebody else. However, when monsters from Alvar's world kidnap my best friend, I find myself whisked away to his realm marrying him anyway. But marrying a man I barely know and adapting to a fantastical new world is nothing compared to learning just how many dark secrets my new husband hides and that the fates of both my world and Alvar's rest on MY shoulders.

The Last Heir of Arthur
476 CE. Rome has abandoned Britain. Mons Badonicus is under siege by Saxon warlord Oesc of Kent, and Arthur's cavalry holds the high ground. After a fortnight of stalemate, a heavy morning mist blankets the valley and the Saxon camp below, giving Arthur the chance he needs to end three generations of war, and turn his isle of woes into a land of hope. Present Day. Fifteen centuries have passed. The Clan Camulodunum has protected Arthur's descendants and its library of long-ago wisdom, in hopes of one day bringing a new Camelot to the world. Now, only one descendant remains...William Cameron MacCrarey. Clan Elder Merrill MaGeah and Keeper Kyle Dunham arrange for him to become the next Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations. He soon earns a reputation as an innovative, kind, and thoughtful leader. But when two of his field missions go horribly wrong, he learns that Secretary-General René Boujeau and his Under-Secretary, Gerhardt Schoen, have secretly been arming third-world dictatorships! Soon, they will have enough military power to unite their puppet nations into a vast authoritarian state! MacCrarey convenes a Charter Amendment Conference to wrest control of the U.N. away from the Secretary-General and call for the formation of a single, worldwide democracy. Many oppose him, however. And foremost among them are Senators Jack Abrams and Mitchell Thomas, and infamous televangelist Johnny Swaywell. They believe a one-world government will herald the End Times and the arrival of the antichrist...who they say is none other than MacCrarey himself! Together with Boujeau and Schoen, they will do anything and everything - assassinations, creating a theo-totalitarian America, even starting an international war - to rid themselves, and the world, of the last heir of Arthur!

I find myself trapped in a fortress in the mountains, under the gaze of a man whose heart did not hesitate to shatter mine years ago.... Whose hands promise protection... and claim.

I can't tell if he's my salvation... or the most delicious kind of trap I've ever known. I am Genevieve. My life was safe, my choices clear. But now, nothing is as it seems.

Kissed By Death
In the shadow-drenched kingdom of Virelund, Prince Casimir is feared as much as he is worshiped-an heir forged from midnight, blood, and prophecy. With eyes like dying stars and a heart buried beneath cruelty, he is destined to bring ruin... or salvation. No one truly knows which. Least of all him. But fate has teeth. When the personification of Death arrives to claim a soul long owed, Casimir doesn't bow-he dares to look Death in the eyes, and in that moment, something impossible blooms. Death, ancient and eternal, cold as cosmic void, finds itself fascinated by the defiant prince who does not flinch at destruction. Then there is Riven-warm, reckless, and devastatingly human. A boy who grew up with dirt-stained hands and a laugh too bright for the world Casimir inhabits. Riven carries no crown or dark prophecy, yet his presence shifts kingdoms more than any throne. He sees the prince beyond his shadows, and Casimir hates how easily he lets him in. Torn between the stillness of annihilation and the fragile pulse of life, Casimir stands at the center of a deadly triangle: One lover whispers forever. One lover whispers live. As an ancient curse awakens and the realm edges toward collapse, Casimir must choose- surrender to an immortal love that would unmake the world, or grasp the mortal boy who reminds him he still has a soul worth saving. For Death is patient... And love can be more dangerous than destiny. [UPDATE FRIDAY 4:30PM PST]Complete
GILDED IRON| original fantasy story
The Vye had taught them many things but most importantly; always burn the dead, never bury or else you may find yourself with deja vu. _____________ Evren knew her place in the fruit bowl of Halloran; obey, smile, fight. Gifted to the Immortal Court at aged five, she'd long since come to terms with the corruption of the world. She had gotten so marvellous at following orders, a steady soldier on a swirling carousel... That was, until he came. The deadly and elusive Adriel, Prince of Tarugon, betrothed to Evren's Princess Hyacinth. It was never a conscious decision to fall for him, never a moment of revelation. It happened, a downward and deadly spiral each and every day that led her to the agonising realisation that she was not as happy in Halloran as she had made herself believe. Her unwarranted love for him may just be the very thing to get her killed... 13/05/2021- 47,360- Pt. 8
Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One
Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.Complete
