~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.

Melissa Crawford thinks she's just a regular teenage girl. She goes to school. She has friends, boy problems, homework...you know, the typical teenage angst. But she couldn't be more wrong, for Melissa Crawford is not a mortal. Her adoptive mortal mother refused to give her up and hired a witch to erase the enchanting Faery child's memory, not realizing that things aren't that simple. You see, when she was a little girl, Melissa promised herself forever to her Leannan Sidhe (mate), a Fae Prince, and a promise to Fae is sacred. When the Fae Prince comes back to claim what's his, nothing will get in his way. "Mortals are so arrogant. So utterly narcissistic to think that they are the only intelligence in this world, to believe their realm is the only realm, their way is the only way. "Many of you believe us fairies only exist in little kids' fairy tales. We are so much more than that. We exist, living in the Realm just a blink away from yours. A few wrong turns in the park or the forest and you're there. We sometimes walk among you, and you're not even aware of it. Believe me, we exist. Across the globe, your kind calls us and our realm by different names...but as William Shakespeare once said- a rose by any other name..."

"Mademoiselle, you mustn't be too angry with him, he has had a hard time coping, you know," the teapot spoke to me. "I have every right to be angry with him. He could go meet the devil himself, and I would still have every right to be angry. He has locked me in a castle with talking teapots and wardrobes that sing for fun. I have every right," I replied, collapsing on the bed. "I do not mean to contradict you, mademoiselle, but you have had simply your freedom and your father taken away. He has had his whole body taken away and his whole life practically ripped out of his hands. Sure, he may have temper issues and he may be slightly vain, but he is trying. Trying is all anyone asks of each other. Just, try to understand." And with that note, the teapot hopped out of the room. * Beauty and the Beast Story *

When Manon,s father, the King, told her that he'd promised her away to the Beast King, she was terrified. Not for the reasons you might think, though. Being married to a Beast didn't scare her so much. No what scared her was the thought of what he might do to her once he learned that she didn't possess the charm and beauty that her two younger sisters were famous for. This is my version of beauty and the beast. It's inspired in part by a fairytale I read as a child, (I think it was called The Sun and the Moon). It's about a woman who got married to a man, who's face she was never allowed to see, but whom she had to share a bed with every night in the dark. Finally, I've added a bit of fur and fang to the story, so I hope you enjoy. Expert from the story: "You know you've been bad, don't you," he growls in my ear, and all I can do is nod soundlessly as my body starts to shiver at his proximity. He's standing flush up against my back. I feel the warmth of his big, solid body seeping into mine. And even though I know he's furious I can't prevent myself from quivering helplessly as he leans in even closer. Suddenly I feel his sharp canines scrape the delicate skin on my neck, making me shiver uncontrollably. I feel his hot, wet tongue sliding over my vein, almost as if he's tracking my pulse with his tongue. "I can taste your pulse underneath my tongue," he growls, spreading his hot breath against my neck and giving me goosebumps. "I feel you quivering beneath my body and I can hear your heart beating." He leans in and gently bites my ear. "Do you have any idea what that does to a beast?"
