Tom was nineteen when a goddess promised to save his dying mother. He believed her. His mother died waiting. Five years later, Ysva is standing on his porch, and she needs something from him. He asks if she takes milk. She is six thousand years old, luminous, and accustomed to being worshipped. He is twenty-five, going grey at the temples, and fresh out of things to feel where she's concerned. She took other lovers while he was in the next room. She laughed at him in front of her entire pantheon. She cursed him in a moment of temper and forgot she'd done it---he's felt it in his spine every day since. Now her kind is dying. Mortals have stopped giving themselves up as consorts, and Ysva is the reason the whole system cracked. To save it, she needs the one thing a goddess cannot take by force: his forgiveness, said out loud, where the world can hear it. Divine law leaves her one road. Three acts of mortal penance. Live as a human in his house for one turn of the moon. Confess every cruelty in front of his town. Attempt the impossible thing he names---and fail at it where everyone can see. She came expecting a desperate man, grateful she'd come back for him. She got a chipped mug, a dog that won't look at her, and a name tag that says EVE. The trouble is that she doesn't understand what she took. And she's about to find out. It's not forgiveness. It's a reckoning. 𝘎𝘰𝘥𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘨. She's about to learn the word was always a lie.

Mortals fear death. Immortals fear forever... When an army of mercenaries sweeps through a young girl's village and murders her parents, her life is set on a new course. After that she didn't have space to believe in anything other than becoming a weapon and cheating death with her closest companions. But an immortal, a goddess, a Valkyrie... changes everything. The stoic guardian watches over Tayah Ashrive now. But cracks start appearing past the cool, immortal demeanour and Tayah realises she may be the only soul to ever get close enough to see her truly. Their meeting will shape the destiny of both their futures-if they survive each other and dangerous growing feelings between them.

Homeless and out of options, Charlie Graham accepts a fisherman's job that sends him traveling from port to port, until a chance encounter with a stranger becomes impossible to forget.

In a fractured world of ancient ruins and advanced technology, humanity lives alongside creatures known as Altereds. For centuries, the Dominion Empire has ruled through fear, conquest, and control, born from the ashes of the Great Altered War. Now, a group of rebels called the Sunset Crusaders are willing to burn the world for freedom. Because "Freedom is built on sacrifices." Follow Gaya and the Sunset Crusaders as they fight their way across the empire, uncovering the truth behind her family's history, the lost origins of their world, and the terrifying secret hidden beneath the kingdom of Veleria. But as betrayal tears the rebellion apart and war consumes everyone around them, they begin to realize that the greatest threat to their survival may not be the empire at all. It may be themselves. Friends become traitors. Heroes become monsters. Love turns into grief. And every sacrifice drags them closer to becoming the very thing they swore to destroy. This is a fast-paced sci-fi fantasy story told through multiple POVs, giving each character their own voice, struggles, and perspective on the fractured world they live in. One chapter may follow a grieving rebel leader. The next, the empire's broken emperor. Another, the traitor who destroyed the only family he ever had. At its heart, this is a story about found family, longing, love, betrayal, and the cost of survival in a dying world. Note that I reserve the right to alter, update, or clarify my story at any time.
