An explosion on the moon sets off a chain of events that no one expected... Until a few minutes ago, Sky's biggest worry was trying to get access to the internet again after losing her privileges-for hacking into a university's library server. Then, the moon explodes, her dad leaves, and the local gas station goes up in flames. Sky and family flee the city, but when a stop to refuel turns deadly, Sky will have to expose her secret to save her little brother. Gray tries to put on a brave face as his father packs, after being recalled to duty. Left alone, waiting for his estranged mom to collect him, Gray watches the erupting confusion on LA's streets outside his window. Hours later, when a bullet shatters his living room window and no sign of Mom, Gray sets out for his dad's friend's house, but with the chaos breaking out all around, and men with knives chasing him down alleys, Gray will have to rely on an unlikely hero if he wants to survive.

*A forbidden mate romance* I'm not just any mongrel. I'm a bastard royal. The best thing my mother ever did was disown me and ship me off to The Bloods Academy, a haven for half-breeds and other supernatural races. I'd finally escaped the horrors of the Summer Court, until the Elder's Council announced my school's merger with the Dragon Academy, packed with super powerful stuck up pure-bloods. Now, it's up to me to protect my three friends, a werewolf, a dryad, and a human mage from the incoming dragons. Even if one of them is the most powerful winter dragons born in generations, The Winter Prince. The ass, who had my first kiss, then destroyed me. And thanks to my royal status, I'm separated from my friends, placed in class one with all the pure-bloods, and thrown back into the court politics I was so desperate to escape. I've no backup and a new professor who looks at me like I'm gum on the sole of his shoe. But when the elders reveal the real reason for the merger, none of it will matter anymore. My past demons will pale in comparison. Welcome to the start of my last year in the Bloods Academy, the most hellish year of all.

This human-like alien species, called Emigres, left their planet to start over after ruining it with constant nuclear war.

When her father escapes to join the rebels, Rachel plans her escape as well. What are the Emigres planning, and will the rebels be able to stop it?

*Sequel to Paladin* The kingdom of Thule stands on the brink of civil war between two armies -- the Paladins and the Uriel -- each claiming the right to serve as Thule's protector. Once a Paladin trainee, Lady Samantha of Haywood -- Sam -- has been named a traitor to king and country by the Paladins' High Commander, with a bounty set on her head. Only Sam and her friends know what the people of Thule do not: the High Commander is no ordinary man but something more--something evil. The supposed military hero holds a dark alliance with the demons that have ravaged mankind for millennia, commanding them as easily as he does his men. Worse, he can control Braeden, Sam's half-demon lover, through blood magic long thought extinct. Sam and Braeden set sail across the sea in hopes of finding a way to nullify the High Commander's power. But the secrets they uncover reveal Thule faces an even greater threat. They must return to Thule and warn the Uriel...before it's too late.

SAMPLE OF PUBLISHED BOOK THAT WAS FIRST WRITTEN ON WATTPAD. Fletcher was nothing more than a humble blacksmith's apprentice, when a chance encounter leads to the discovery that he has the ability to summon demons from another world. Chased from his village for a crime he did not commit, he must travel with his demon to the Vocans Academy, where the gifted are trained in the art of summoning. The academy will put Fletcher through a gauntlet of gruelling lessons, training him as a battlemage to fight in the Hominum Empire's war against the savage orcs. Rubbing shoulders with the children of the most powerful nobles in the land, Fletcher must tread carefully. The power hungry Forsyth twins lurk in the shadows, plotting to further their family's interests. Then there is Sylva, an elf who will do anything she can to forge an alliance between her people and Hominum, even if it means betraying her friends. Othello is the first ever dwarf at the academy, and his people have long been oppressed by Hominum's rulers, which provokes tension amongst those he studies alongside. Fletcher will find himself caught in the middle of powerful forces, with nothing but his demon Ignatius to help him. As the pieces on the board manoeuvre for supremacy, Fletcher must decide where his loyalties lie. The fate of an empire is in his hands ...

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.
