In the chaos of war, some battles are fought with steel -- others with the soul. Admiral Arden Lexington was raised by vengeance. After witnessing pirates slaughter her family, she devoted her life to hunting them down as part of the International Pirate Hunters Fleet -- a powerful naval militia loyal to no crown, only to the Admiral who leads them. Hardened, brilliant, and feared across the sea, Arden is a force few dare challenge. But when a man from her past-Master of Arms, James Morgan -- is pulled from the wreckage of a sunken ship and placed under her command, Arden's world begins to fracture. The boy who once slipped into her heart has returned a man -- and with him, a quiet defiance against the life she's sentenced herself to. He doesn't judge her past-he dares her to imagine a future beyond it. As enemies gather and betrayals surface, Arden must decide what kind of legacy she wants to leave behind-one carved in vengeance, or one built on hope. Volume 1: Arden Lexington, The 8th Admiral of the International Pirate Hunters' Fleet, is the first novel in The Admiral Chronicles: a gripping, slow-burn romantic adventure steeped in loyalty, power, heartbreak, and the high price of freedom on the open sea.

Love blooms where secrets are buried. Liora Aerlyn never wanted a crown. She only wanted her flower shop, her quiet corner of the city, and a life untouched by the bloodlines and politics that rule Virellien from behind marble walls. But when a confrontation in the palace courtyard turns her into a public spectacle-and catches the attention of the Queen's elusive son-Liora is pulled into a world of whispered titles, masked betrayals, and truths long buried. Thane Calveron never wanted the throne. But he's spent his life shaping the court from its shadows, trading silence for survival. Liora, sharp as frost and warm as sunlight, was never supposed to matter. Until she did. Until she refused to bow. Until her name began reshaping everything he thought he was protecting. As old scandals resurface and the court begins to fracture, Liora must decide what she's willing to risk-for the truth, for her mother's memory, and for the boy behind the mask who just might be worth forgiving.
