Being King Arthur's daughter is not as good as it sounds. Sixteen-year-old Melora has struggled to find her place ever since her brother was trampled to death in a hunting accident. Her father raised her to be a warrior, but Melora isn't allowed to enter the nearby forest to prove herself worthy. She wants to escape, but how can she leave when even the sight of a horse makes her paralyzed with fear? Prince Orlando is expendable. His arrogant brothers and distant father were thrilled for him to leave tiny Thessaly. Orlando heard tales of Arthur's court, where men are measured by their worth. He came to prove himself; he didn't plan to fall in love. Pursuing Melora earns him powerful enemies and endangers them both. When Orlando is cursed to eternal imprisonment in the Otherworld, only Melora can save him and break the curse. Melora must overcome warriors, outsmart kings, and face her deepest fears if she wants to get Orlando out alive. But first, she'll have to get on a horse. *A Retelling of The Adventure of Melora and Orlando*

Corinna Báthory, 16th-century nobility, is kidnapped and thrown into a male detective academy in present-day Florida. But they grabbed the wrong girl. Season 1 of Agents of Time ***** It's 1585, and things could not possibly be going any slower for Corinna Báthory. Overwhelmed with expectations as Hungarian nobility and the trials and tribulations of becoming a female playwright in a field dominated by men, Corinna would do anything for a change of pace. Of course, there's nothing better to speed up the narrative than being kidnapped...and being accused of being a serial killer. ***** [[ THE WATTY'S 2021 SHORTLIST ]]

**Preview Only** When a wounded dragon falls from the sky, Claire Evans runs into a cornfield to rescue it. This isn't just any dragon, he's a shifter, one of six royal protectors, and helping him has consequences. Claire finds herself traipsing--or rather, flying--across the kingdom of Dragonwall. She must face Dragonwall's king. King Talon is not like those before him. Troubled and temperamental, he is scarred by more than the events that shaped him. Worst of all, he is mateless. With no queen and no heir, his subjects are demanding he abandon tradition and marry into nobility. There is a rising threat at his borders, whispers of a sorcerer. Soon, he will have greater problems than that of finding a wife. Modern meets medieval in this seven-book series filled with magical creatures and adventure. This epic fantasy is a slow burn romance that follows multiple POVs, woven together around Claire, a small town Indiana gal. If you've ever wondered what it might be like to get sucked into a fantastical world beyond our own, look no further! **Read Exclusively On Wattpad**

Ancient Blood Series: Book 2 - She shook her head the micro amount his grip would allow. "I... I killed all those people!" "Yes," the word came out in a low purr, and her heart fluttered. There was a heat in his eyes that made her legs tremble. "You killed them. And how did it feel?" She stopped shaking. Her breath slowed, and the world went quiet. It was just them. Did she dare say it out loud? He would understand. He saw right through her... as he always did. That special brand of lust and hunger he brought out in her sparked to life. Kate leaned into his touch, lifted herself up on her toes until she was a fraction of an inch away from his lips, and whispered, "I loved it." - This book has a MATURE rating for adult content and is not appropriate for audiences under the age of 17. - Approx. 175,000 words - Enjoy
