Struggling to sell a single painting and drowning in student debt, Marisol Reyes, a fiercely independent but lonely artist in modern-day Chicago, is just about ready to give up on her dreams. When a mysterious storm crashes through her studio, she's pulled-brushes and all-into a world of primal beauty, where men can transform at will to different animals, cities are carved from stone and bone, and technology is nothing more than a fantasy. In this untamed realm centered around women and powered by instinct, Marisol finds herself at the center of the beastmen tribes. With no phone, no way home, and no clue how to survive in a matriarchal society where women must take multiple male consorts to stay protected, Marisol must quickly adapt-or risk becoming prey. Thrust into the spotlight, she must navigate between aggressive females, obsessive men, and unexpected desire. Armed with nothing but her creativity, courage, and the heart she wears on her sleeve, Marisol begins to uncover her place in this wild world. Maybe she doesn't need to return home after all... maybe she was meant to paint a new life here.

(This story will become free on JULY 15, 2024) They say nothing was left of Ravenna Aphelion... nothing but her ancestral amber ring and a scared little girl clinging to it and crying in the ash of her home, broken but unburnt. Season 1 of Broken But Unburnt *** Years later, three kingdoms are on the verge of war. Karil seeks to wipe out the magic that Idoria worships and Delos is caught in the middle, taking refugees and making alliances that are raising tensions more than diffusing them. A man in the West calls himself The Chaos and is doing his best to live up to the name, a prophecy has scholars on the edge, and religious zealots are flooding the streets and committing violent acts against those against the belief. This world needs salvation. And it may come from the most unlikely of sources; the bastard of a sullen king, an assassin with a deadly secret, and a monster hunter from an ancient order. They may not save the world but they will give it a choice. Resurrection or ruin? What will humanity choose?
