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.

Tiffany Cotton was not who she said she was. The peculiar woman had shown up in Ravensfield one night, wielding a pistol with a familiarity that odd, run-of-the-mill spinsters shouldn't know how to do. She was bizarrely intelligent, wore gowns that were two sizes too big for her, and a smile that transformed her face. Kaede C'Lainn had a difficult time noticing anything anymore since he drank of a liquor that had been tainted with an enchantment, forcing his hand in an act that riddled him with guilt. But he noticed Miss Cotton. Particularly how she had the penchant to show up in places that she shouldn't be. There was something about her that spiked his intrigue... and suspicions. And after the last bout of recklessness on his part, he was not about the make the same mistake twice. He believed Miss Cotton to be part of a syndicate to end his brethren's life, and Kaede wouldn't allow that to happen again. Even if it meant apprehending the one woman whose kiss put all his broken pieces back together again in a world that rejected his kind. This is a fantasy-historical-romance with a lot of steam and a lot of romance! FMC is motivated to do some serious butt-kicking and MMC has a tail... :)

This is my entry for TEGSA 2025. --- Melissa is the only one who knows her dad didn't kill her mom. She knows a monster did it. She saw it herself when she was nine years old. Or so she thinks. Now, being twenty-three and fresh out of college, she knows there is no such thing as monsters. There weren't any voices to hide from under her blanket, there weren't any shadows chasing her in the halls, those were all fantasies of a kid with too much imagination. Yet, she is still determined to find out what really happened to her parents, and most of all, why. Because the one thing she does know, is that people have lied to her. All of them. All the time. --- 🥇First place in the Hollowed Verse Awards (min 1k reads category) 🥉 Third place in the Moonlight Trove | Astania Awards 2025 (Mystery)

Jeanne had always dreamed of claiming her cousin's throne, but dreaming was all she ever intended. That is, until her prospective fiancé falsely frame her for treason and she is banished to the countryside. Years pass before she is summoned back to the palace to witness the royal wedding, between her traitorous cousin and the man who ruined her life. Jeanne accepts the invitation, but not to offer her congratulations. She returns with one goal: to steal the throne they always feared she'd want. For that, she must forge a strange alliance with the most wanted criminal in the kingdom. Wren never expected to catch the exiled princess of Alblionia in one of her traps, let alone strike a deal with her. But the idea of overthrowing the queen is too tempting, and her own past is too painful to ignore. As Wren finds herself more and more entangled in the web of schemes of the beautiful aristocrat, she must decide whether revenge is worth becoming someone else's puppet.

Can I keep you? It's a question Loki never imagined he'd ask. Certainly not to a half starved fugitive who hid in the trunk of his royal carriage. An escaped prisoner from Alfheim, she's bruised, traumatised, and clings to a stolen blade like it's her only lifeline. With no memory of her past and no trust left to give, she's a mystery wrapped in pain. He should have turned her in. Sent her back to the realm that claimed her. But one look into those wild, haunted eyes and Loki made a different choice. To keep her. He offers her safety, shelter... Love. But as the pieces of her memory begin to return, and war draws near, he realises he hasn't just rescued a girl. He's uncovered a secret. One that could change everything. *A slow-burn fantasy romance, with dark elements and descriptive scenes of spice* mature audiences only* First published 13/04/2025 Completed 14/07/ 2025 Approx 116k words.
