REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

The war was never theirs to fight-only to survive. When Solmara falls to rebellion and ruin, Evie Carter and Leo Donovan are left with one goal: escape. She's an engineer with secrets. He's a drifter with nowhere to call home. Neither are warriors, but in a world collapsing around them, survival means risking everything. Their only hope lies in Vassir's Gate, a distant safe haven whispered about in dying cities and fractured transmissions. But the road is treacherous. The enemy isn't just an invading army-it's the lawless chaos left in its wake. From burning airships to frozen wastelands, every step brings new dangers, new betrayals, and enemies determined to ensure they never make it out alive. Through it all, Evie and Leo fight side by side-mismatched, stubborn, and unwilling to let the other fall. But trust is fragile, and love is dangerous when every mistake could mean death. As battles rage and desperation sets in, one question remains: will they reach safety together, or will the war break them before they ever see peace? A steampunk sci-fi fantasy filled with adventure, peril, and slow-burning romance, Smoke & Gears is a story of survival, love, and the unbreakable bond between two souls in a world that refuses to let them go. (This book is still currently being worked on and adjusted. Feel free to offer advice as I am new to all of this!)

The world is no longer hers. After an apocalypse turned Earth into a living nightmare-where animals hunt for sport and plants consume the unsuspecting-Natalie has lost everything. Betrayed by those she trusted and left to die, survival is her only goal. Until an old man offers her a way out. A new world. A breeding program. A chance at safety. But safety comes at a price. Transported to an alien planet on the brink of extinction, Natalie is paired with a powerful warrior of a species that doesn't understand human customs-especially not when it comes to breeding. Their kind is rough, dominant, and built for survival, but her new mate is fascinated by her in ways neither of them expect. Yet trust doesn't come easy. Not when danger lurks beyond the walls of their new home, when rival males and jealous females threaten to tear them apart. And when the biggest threat of all-the truth behind the virus that wiped out their women-is still waiting to be uncovered. She was brought here to save a dying race. But will she survive long enough to do it?

Wattys 2021 Short List. Shipwrecked on a criminal-infested mining colony, military telepath Reid Kaplan needs answers about the attack on his ship and the unusual alien activity on the planet he's stranded on. Unfortunately, some of those answers might lie in a mind as unique as it is dangerously flawed. Customs inspector Jinsin Koel is used to having guns pointed at her head - but not ones attached to weapon-heavy cyborg insects who consider her lower on the food chain. The Xykeree, past enemies of humanity, should never have been allowed to dock at her home port. And they're just the start of her problems. Throw in a hereditary neurological illness and a secret society of soldiers genetically tailored for psionic combat and she has herself a whole new level of trouble ... the kind that could destroy her personal foundations and imperil billions of lives. Complete novel (word count approx. 115,600; no cliffhanger ending) Action adventure, space opera Reader advisory: strong language, violence/horror, sexual content UK spelling

Book One in the Stag Belt Series Survival demands submission. Instinct demands more. Revina thought landing her first field mission days after graduation was a dream come true-until she learned the catch. She's been sent to the untamed planet of Veythra, a place of dangerous nomadic clans and uncharted lands. The reason she was chosen? Rhyos. Her best friend. Her protector. A half-human, half-Veythrian hybrid who has never set foot on his father's homeland. But the moment they land, everything changes. It's the sacred breeding season. The clans are restless. The males are on edge. And Rhyos-the one person she's always trusted-is changing. His instincts are awakening, his control slipping. Worse, the price of protection among the clans is her participation in their sacred rite. His claim is the only thing standing between her and the others. Because the warriors see her as a prize. A foreign beauty. A fertile offering. And if Rhyos doesn't stake his claim? They will.
