He burned for control. She was born of chaos. Together, they'll shatter the laws that broke them-and forge a love fierce enough to change everything. - In a kingdom where magic is law and the powerless are sold like cattle, survival is a coin few can afford. Every season, the poorest are swept from the streets and auctioned off as Familiars - living mana batteries to feed the ambitions of greedy sorcerers. Forgotten. Disposable. Erissa expected pain when she was claimed by Lord Kaelen Carmentis - the coldest sorcerer in the court, and heir to one of the oldest bloodlines in the realm. She didn't expect the bond to awaken something inside her. And she certainly didn't expect that, in the silence between them, she would feel safe. But Familiars aren't meant to be felt. And whatever is growing between them... is breaking every rule. Because she was never meant to survive the system. She was meant to rewrite it - and burn the old world down in the process.

Danya, a mage with a secret, is nineteen when he's finally sold as a gift. But the man he's been given to has no need or want for a slave.

Rosalie Moore isn't a trouble maker or a person that gives into peer pressure. So, why is she breaking and entering into the manor at the end of her street? The answer is simple and extremely juvenile, a dare. Mason Manor at the end of Blackwood in Blackmoor estates has been around since the Civil War and years prior to. The manor has also been abandoned and falling to ruins for the past few decades. Many people from West Chesterfield High have claimed to have been inside and witnessed paranormal activity. They claimed to have seen a pale ghostly man in an old Rebel uniform. Rosalie and D'Andra, her best friend, got into a disagreement about the haunted manor. Rosalie said there is no ghost, while D'Andra believes there is one. During their bickering D'Andra dared her to go in and stay a total of two hours inside that house. Rosalie's presence didn't bring out ghosts, but it does awaken a blood thirsty monster. This is Book 2 to the Supernatural Neighborhood Series. No you don't have to read Book 1, The Werewolf Next Door, but I would appreciate it if you would.

Book One in the Soul Seeker Series. At fifteen Amelia is forced to move in with her birthfather when her mother passes away. A man she's never met before in her life, stern and unfair, he is almost never at home and forces his family to move whenever his job calls for it. For three years Amelia has looked after herself and her younger brother Hayden but when she tranfers to Riverwood High everything changes. She finds herself friends there despite the efforts of her stepsister. One teacher in particular takes an interest in her, the 25 year old Nathaniel Flynn. The first time he laid eyes on her he knew, he just had to have her. At eighteen Amelia has to look after her baby brother, hold her own against a stepmother and mean stepsister and battle feelings she's never felt before. After all...

A 21st century covert ops agent, Cybelline found herself transported to a medieval world of magic and war without a clue of how she got there. Fine, she'll consider this as early, early retirement and try to have a quiet, peaceful life. Maybe she would buy a farm and raise some ducks. She didn't plan to have royalty fall over her doorstep and demand marriage for "taking his innocence". Granted, she tripped him first, but he deserved it. If her idyllic life had been undisturbed, she could even ignore the war between humans, the Fae, and the Folk. If they had left her alone, perhaps she would have never discovered power so potent that it could destroy the world. Perhaps she would have never become the most feared person in the realm.

Artemis Rhodes had been working a shift at her minimum-wage waitressing job when two unfairly attractive patrons handed her a flyer inscribed with only a phone number. They told her a better job awaited her, and they left a generous tip. A promise. An English degree and school debt equivalent to half a house haunted Artemis more than any real ghost she'd never seen. After all, as an over-qualified waitress with her rented room in the city, alone, watching Netflix, ghosts were rarely a problem, but bills were downright damning. At least, until she dialed the number and spoke to Michelle, an owner of two businesses: ghost-hunting, and The Secret Hotel, an upscale companion service that catered privately to actors, politicians, entrepreneurs, and anyone with money. The two men Artemis served were not only part of the ghost-hunting team, but also companions. The job of Michelle's personal assistant would end the fear of bills, but bring the supernatural into her life like never before, beginning with an illegally kept ghost named Skylar who protected the companions from ill-mannered clientele. As an Empath, every sound and every glimpse of naked flesh, even the sensation of lust in the air, consumes her. But she can also connect with ghosts and become a prime member of the hunting team. She has a chance to conquer her fears of the world, of herself, and to let others conquer her in ways she never knew she wanted-as long as they survive their ghost-hunting missions. (For ages 18+.

Born into slavery as nothing better than a Subhuman, unable to speak, unable to read or write and unallowed to learn such things, she works hard for her master, the Divine Magician. Then one day, as she's trying to continue her hard work, Silent Eden makes a discovery that could change the way she views the entire world. Zanthius has lived on his own since the death of his mother. As an Islander, he knows that the land he lives on is sacred, and that no Mainlanders are to step foot on the island. So when he finds the strange girl in the ruins of the Island, he doesn't know what to do. She doesn't speak the language--She doesn't speak at all! To find out where she comes from and to send her back are Zanthius' duties to his people. But is it worth it?

Alanna wasn't expecting to be abducted when she went to the old lake side house she inherited from a distant relative. And she sure wasn't expecting to be despised on sight by the older brother of the young winged male she'd befriended, and who'd included her in his rescue attempt. And thanks to High Commander Grouchy Bird Diah's behavior, they were nearly mated! But wait... there's more! Now all the Aeries of the Luvian people just HAVE to be the ones with bragging rights to the lone 'wingless female'... so now Alanna has the dubious honor of being fought over in a damn tourney! And winner gets to tote her home like a freaking football tucked under their arm... Como say what the hell?! If those flip-flapping-flyers think for one minute that she'll just LET some stranger HAVE her... JUST cuz they won some stupid archaic tournament? They will be in for a rude awakening when they end up maimed or worse the first time they try to 'claim' their prize... Lana ain't no Shrinking Violet... no means no biches! Not even those dark-mojo-having fools of the Lagos Isles with their 'Please Master may I have another?' aura, are going to change Lana's mind... well, maybe the Grouchy Bird might have a chance(he is awfully smexy)... if he were to ever get that stick surgically removed that is...
