On the shores of western Ireland, in a drab town - a young, day-dreaming waitress hides her scars. Chained to a life of caring for an alcoholic and abusive father, twenty-year-old Clara paints herself pretty lies of days when things might just get better. But, they don't...they get exponentially worse. Death. Her death. After a run in with a senile old man who foreshadows her death, Clara is faced with her greatest reality check yet. The Faerie are real. The monsters that drove her father to drink are real. Tír na nÔg is no bedtime story, it's her purgatory. Alive and lost in the unveiled and dangerous Fae world, Clara comes face-to-face with the Spirit of the Wild - Naisi, a crownless King broken by a shadow that's corrupting the Seelie reality. With the balance of nature upturned it's not only the Fae who are at risk. As above so below. And Clara must fight every prejudice to save a life, and in doing so she might just find her reason for living. ***************** Inspired by my fanfiction series of the same title. This is a re-telling based on the origins of 'To Live Again' and my love of fairytales - especially Beauty & the Beast and Irish folklore. For original fans of my fan work I can assure that there will be both familiar faces but entirely uncharted worlds. It's definitely not the same story but the characters are a little flicker of their origins. ***Beautiful Cover Design by the lovely @Stars_Alight*** Copyright 2020

The Choosing is an annual event in the town of Long Pine where girls aged sixteen to twenty-five are required to attend. Between these ages the girls are not permitted to leave the town or interact with any men who are not family members. Sophie Eversteen never thought she would be chosen. At the age of Twenty she knew just what to expect when the town halls door opens. They were animals, monsters. Dragging crying girls away with them. No one knows what happens to girls once they are chosen, all Sophie knows is that they are never seen again. Sophie thinks she has five years left before she can leave Long Pine and fulfill her dreams of becoming a Veterinarian. That all comes crashing to a stop when he walks through the doors. A man of raw power. A man that demanded attention. A man that wanted Sophie.

They were wrong when they said that she resembled Catelyn Tully. Her hair color wasn't Tully auburn but burnished cooper, the same tint as Elia Martell's tresses when she was young and her eyes weren't Tully blues, they were dark indigos the very same hue like Prince Rhaegar has. They made a mistake when they called her Stark, she was a Targaryen. A dragon not a wolf. She wasn't a daughter of winter for fire was in her blood. or What if Sansa was Rhaegar Targaryen and Elia Martell's third child? And what if Jon is a trueborn Stark?

Vampires. Fey. Love. War. Sometimes you find your soulmate at exactly the wrong time... The Council of Swords, the Comhairle-Chlaidheamhan had protected supernatural kind for generations, fighting humans who would kill through fear, as well other, darker creatures who would oppress those weaker than themselves. However, the Council's enemies were growing stronger and the numbers of warriors left to protect the ordinary people were thinning. As the list of fallen warriors grew, times were becoming desperate for the Council's soldiers and those they protect. The supernatural community were in desperate need of more warriors, more ghaisgich, but only the strongest pass the trials to claim such an important position. Tor had only ever wanted to be a warrior, to defend his people from those who would destroy them through fear or malice. Becoming a ghaisgeach of the Comhairle-Chlaidheamhan was not an easy task though. It meant going against the wishes of his family. It meant being willing to sacrifice himself because it was his duty to do so. It meant putting his trust in strangers, and none were stranger than the woman that Tancred, the ghaisgeach Chief, wanted to partner him with... Deothas didn't need a partner. She didn't need to follow the rules and she certainly wasn't about to put her faith in anyone else. Why should she, when her 'brothers' and 'sisters' of the Comhairle-Chlaidheamhan didn't have faith in her? She was a loner, by choice and because she was the last of her people in the mortal realm. She was the fey-born, the only non-bhampair warrior in the Council of Swords. She was a mistake. They didn't want her and she'd taken all she needed from them already. Why would she want to babysit a new recruit? The council needs it's warriors to work together... even those who stole their positions. Unfortunately for some, both trust and love are far more terrifying prospects than war.

I, Gianna August, have been abducted by Alien's. Not sure if its a good or bad thing yet. All I know is that I have to marry a stranger and have his kids. This stupid law set up by the government is that as soon as we are of age, we have to do a sacred ceremony. We only have to do it because all of the supernatural creatures needed to find their mates. Apparently it is now common for a supernatural being to mate with a human so we all have to do the blood testing ceremony. I am the forth human to be selected by an Alien. The first one was a woman named Clarissa. She killed herself shortly after the ceremony. The second was a man named James that no one ever heard from again. The second woman May, same thing with James. I don't know how it will be for me. I just hope it's not bad.
