No, this story isn't about a nerd falling in love with a bad boy who's made her high school life hell for years. This is the story of an AroAce nerd who conveniently fits the stereotypes. A+ grades, glasses, books, and the most despicable of all, pimples. Eliza Avellins has it all. But instead of being the damsel in distress, she is her own knight in shining armor. Instead of late-night chats, she finds herself crying under the moon because the author killed her favorite side character. Instead of playing mind games with the school's big shot, she'd rather turn around and leave without a word. All she ever cares about is money, books, and grades. So much so that she would willingly challenge even fate itself if it begs to believe otherwise. Magnificent book cover and banner by @bookishnxrd. CURRENT STATUS: REWRITING

In a remote era, Evil made its place in the Sky. Two sister Stars once united as a single soul, broke their bond, and fell from Heaven. Their story became a legend. A thousand years later, the vast Empire of Moskova is at the mercy of the oppressive regime of its new Tsar, Ivar, and his protégé, Mikhai. Multiple peoples suffer their agenda where paranoia, vulgarity, sarcasm, and horror are the bread of every day. Darkness spreads across the Empire, and the only hope seems to be to find and reunite the Lost Northern Stars. But, according to legend, only uncorrupted hearts can reach them. Two Kozzakhi children may have the key to saving their homeland, but they must first learn about their past. A servant from the Royal Palace desires to save his family, but he also feels his duty is to end the reign of the horror. Two unique sabers. One hope.

Magic is to be feared. It is a wild, unpredictable thing, and anywhere it goes it brings mayhem and destruction. Those that wield it are even more dangerous. At least, that's what King Soren claimed when he hunted down and killed nearly every magic-user in Eldernia. The only ones he spared were sworn into Soren's service as elite agents that have one purpose, and one purpose only--find any remaining magic-users and give them a choice. Join the Valkir . . . or die. Asher, a sixteen-year-old boy, has managed to conceal his power for years. But when his secret is revealed, there will be no more hiding. || Winner of the 2020 Sinne Awards || || Third place in the 2020 Black and Gold Flames Awards - Fantasy || The fabulous cover is from @-designdistrict !

With the fate of the world thrust into his paws, Thirty-Four finds himself fighting for survival, as well as struggling to control his new power.

Magic is a powerful yet fleeting thing. Those blessed with its presence are given a choice: to do good for their fellow man or to be corrupted. Tobias has neither magic nor the pressure of its power and has lived a peaceful, secluded life because of this. That is, before he stumbles across the key to power: a spellbook. Desperate to unlock its secrets, he accepts it as the promise of something greater. Until the day a thief snatches the book out from under him. In an effort to get it back, Tobias is thrust out into the dangerous world beyond the comfort of his home. Dragons, secrets, and wild magic lurk around every corner he turns, and he has no hope of catching the thief on his own. In order to reclaim his book and safely return home, Tobias must learn to adapt to the shifting world outside. But as he is joined by others who volunteer to aid him in his search for the thief, he realizes there's more to her than he thinks, and the spellbook is only the beginning.

After receiving an unexpected package from an unexpected sender, seventeen-year-old Amelia Kingston is thrown into the prestigious Olympian High. For someone whose life revolved around constant transferring to schools due to her foster father's odd paranoia, she already knows the rule of thumb: fit in, act natural and most importantly, don't attract unnecessary attention. Unsurprisingly, she breaks all three and ends up staggering to the school's electrical room, only to be shot down by a distracted student with pure lightning, knocking her unconscious. As soon as she wakes up, she is thrown into a world of godly incarnates, backstabbing enemies and lost myths coming back to life.
