What if a single laugh in the sunlit markets of Kotor could change everything? Peter Anozie, a Nigerian artist with a poet's soul, wasn't looking for love - but then he saw her. Who is the veiled girl with secrets in her eyes and a storm behind her smile? Aaliyah El-Zein, a Jordanian beauty, who is bound by chains the world can't see. A scarf caught in the wind. A glance too long. A connection neither can deny. But can love bloom between two souls when the world forbids it? Aaliyah's past is a prison - sold by her father to Kamil, a powerful man who treats her like a possession. As Ramadan begins, so does her descent into Kamil's dark, gilded world. How far would you go for the one you love? Peter follows her into the unforgiving red deserts of Afghanistan, where love is not just forbidden - it's lethal. When loyalty clashes with longing, and tradition wars with truth... can love survive? Aaliyah must choose between duty and desire, between the life she knows and the freedom Peter offers. Will their love set them free - or destroy them both? In a tale of stolen moments, dangerous devotion, and aching hope, some wars are fought with hearts, not weapons. She was his rebellion. Freedom was her price. Are you ready to follow them into the fire?

For ten years, Sima has lived as the Shah's sogoli - his most favored concubine - a golden bird in a golden cage. Beneath her flawless beauty lies a vengeful heart, for it was the Shah himself who slaughtered her family and forced her into his harem. Each night she shares his bed, Sima tips poison into his wine, weakening the tyrant one slow sip at a time. When Prince Farid enters her poisoned world with mischievous eyes and a heart untainted by palace schemes, Sima sees both opportunity and danger. Unlike his brothers who circle the throne like hungry wolves, Farid offers something she thought long dead - hope. But love and vengeance are treacherous dance partners, and in the shadow of Crown Prince Hormoz's growing suspicions, Sima must choose: the revenge that has kept her alive for ten years, or a chance at freedom in the arms of a prince who could destroy everything with his kindness. For in the Shah's harem, even the sweetest roses bear thorns, and the most dangerous poison often tastes like honey. - Contains mature themes, violence, and sexual content, recommended for older teen readers -

Hunter called himself an archaeologist, but he was a modern day treasure hunter. Tiyana was a scientist devoted to her craft. They were passionate people, wholly devoted to their work. Neither of them had time for love. Neither of them could resist it when it happened. Neither of them knew that the world would need the two of them to save it from a tyrannical pre-historic overlord, his cyborg vampire paramour, and their army of mindless drudges. Dawn of the Epoch is an epic science fiction novel about dark matter, death rays, nuclear warfare, and the Large Hadron Collider, but it is also a fantasy novel about medieval warriors, alchemy, and ancient gods. Dawn of the Epoch blends fantasy with reality, bringing mythology to life today. It is also an apocalyptic thriller spanning the globe from the Pyramids of Egypt to the heart of Africa to the majesty of the Himalayas. It is an epic hybrid-genre story with intense action sequences, magic, mythology, suspenseful plot twists, countless obstacles for the protagonists to overcome, and an utterly Machiavellian supernatural villain. Testimonials: "Probably one of my favorite books I've read to date. Brilliantly complex, adoringly rendered and quizzically intense. A must read and one I plan to revisit, and share!" - Amgwatts, Wattpad Reader "This has to be one of the most original and well written novels I have had the pleasure to read, on Wattpad and in general. It was captivating, interesting, immersive and above all, fantastic. I was left in awe of the beings, history and world you created. It was never dull, dry or predicable and it was a nice change from what seems to be the ever popular teen romance with vampires or werewolves or 'bad boys that are actually romantic good boys.' In the end it was a very pleasant surprise." -IridescentLies, Wattpad Reader http://dawnoftheepoch.weebly.com
