When Aria's father sells her to a stranger from the north, she never expects to be cherished like a daughter. To live in a castle, showered with every luxury. Her sumptuous new life is every young girl's dream. But as Aria grows older she can no longer deny the mystery and strangeness of her beloved foster family. Especially the Greyback men. Nor can she ignore the dark menace of the woods beyond the castle. Aria is determined to unravel their secrets. Above all, those of Lucian Greyback, the enigmatic and unsettling man to whom she is betrothed. When her curiosity gets the better of her, Aria is compelled to venture into the forest and discover the truth. But beneath flesh and blood lies a beastly legacy. And a birthright she could never imagine. If you enjoyed the gothic, captivating world of mystery in Jane Eyre (but need a little more bite), you will love the suspenseful and alluring secrets of Aria's journey in this book.

It has been nearly eighteen years since Kota saved Eirenae. Eighteen years since Eirenae found her voice, broke free from her captivity, and aided in the defeat of her perpetrator and the scattering of his little band of hunters. Now, their daughter, Emerald, is coming of age to write her own story, find her mate, and lead her pack going forward. Except Emerald doesn't want her written fate. She wants to be alpha and lead her pack as grandly as her father has, and she doesn't want a mate. Unfortunately for her plans, the Moon Goddess has paired her up, not only with a mate, but another alpha. Resisting is torture, as her soul calls out for his, and he doesn't understand her hesitation. As she keeps her distance, she physically weakens, deteriorating faster than werewolfly possible. In her depleted state, she's snatched from school and taken to her infamous grandmother's house-the palace-by two of the Royal guard. There, she learns more about herself, her species, her pack, and her heritage. But the other packs are desperate to get Eirenae onto the throne that is technically rightfully hers. The frustration-along with the kidnapping of the royal granddaughter-may just start a new kind of turmoil no one has really prepared for. Which War will be fatal, ending in disaster? Emerald's mental battle against her own feelings for her mate? Or the physical war the werewolf kingdom has been sucked into? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Book 2 -Succeeds "Silent Luna" -Precedes "Hidden Fox" -Started: April 2nd, 2019 -Completed: April 19th, 2020 -#11 in Telekinesis 4/25/2020 -#1 in Bloodshed 5/22/2020 -#2 in alphasmate 3/15/2023 REWRITE -Succeeds "Breaking the Silence" -Precedes "Hidden Fox" -Started: February 9th, 2023 -Completed: September 4th, 2023 -Published: February 29th, 2024 #2 in Paperback 12/19/24

⚠️ ORIGINALLY TITLED SILENT LUNA ⚠️ After a terrible car accident when she was seven, Eirenae's life got turned upside down. Her father changed everything, becoming rotten and abusive to the point it caused her to stop speaking entirely. Eleven years later and she still lives by his rules, trapped under his thumb. She has nowhere to go; no life outside the awful one she's forced into at home, and any time she tries to speak, her voice fails her. Without much hope left, she suffers in silence. Until moving to a new town changes everything. Arriving at her new school, Eirenae immediately catches the attention of six students. They're the nicest anyone has ever been to her, but everything about them strikes her funny: they're naturally perfect, have insane athletic reflexes, and they keep using strange words like "Alpha", "Luna", and "pack". On top of it all, their eyes horrifyingly seem to change color and no matter how much she runs or gives hints she should be left alone, they won't stop being overly friendly. No one seems to be willing to explain anything to her, so maybe it's time to bring her life back into her own hands, discover what has been hiding from her past, and let herself be rescued. . . and maybe not particularly in that order! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Book 1 -Precedes "Fatal War" -Started: April 4th, 2018 - Completed: May 1st, 2019 - Rewritten: May 2nd, 2022 -Published: February 18th, 2023 -#1 in Abuse: 9/21/2019 -#1 in Mate 10/5/2019 -#1 in luna 10/16/2019 -#3 in Werewolf 12/26/2019 -#1 in Whitewolf 1/28/2020 -#1 in Mute 2/9/2020 -#2 in Telekinesis 4/25/20 -#1 in Royalwolf 3/15/22 new version: -#10 in Werewolf 10/5/22 -#1 in Telekinesis 10/11/22 -#3 in Published 2/18/23 -#4 in Whitewolf 2/18/23 -#2 in Published 3/28/23 -#1 in Published 5/3/23 -#3 in Powers 10/14/25

[Completed] Taylor Daniels. Average name, average face, average girl. What about her life? Well, that's a bit complicated. Finding out her werewolf heritage was not part of the seemingly normal life Taylor lived. She'd always been the strong but silent type, concentrating on getting good grades and pleasing her mother. But all that changes when she's merely picked up and dropped into the world of werewolves. She'll have to dust herself off and learn to live with the fact that her life was a lie. What's even more deranged is that her life is at risk. And who can possibly help her? Her so called "mate" Leo Knight. A forced marriage between the two is the only thing keeping her safe, but what happens when this little compromise turns into a whirlwind of attraction, hate, jealousy, and possible love? Can Taylor hold on to her only hope of sanity, or be whisked away in the world of werewolves, where her family, herself included, are a bunch of overgrown dogs? Taylor may seem shy on the outside, but dealing with a sarcastic, rude, arrogant mate has her standing up for herself and ultimately, facing her crazy consequences. Despite her situation, the confusing part is the possible attraction she has to Leo. And to think, it all started with two simple words..."I Do." THIS BOOK IS CURRENTLY BEING EDITED! If you are fine with reading it as is, go ahead! But I am currently editing it to remove multiple grammatical errors, as well as improving the story line and filling in some missing gaps that I failed to address the first time writing this. The finished product will be up soon! If you still would like to read this book, go ahead but you have been warned!

With her pack at stake, Alastrine is forced to gather courage and persist in the face of danger. Whether it will bring her fortune, is up to fate. Both equal forces with equal passions, tied by the moon and bonded by their wolves. What will happen when they meet? - Alastrine and Orion are two different people. One lives the luxury of an Alpha, with silk sheets and a warm bed at night, while the other struggles to keep warm in the harsh winds of the cold, battling the forces as they try to stay alive within in a world that shuns the alone and deems them unworthy to live. It's no wonder that they'd not see eye to eye when they met, but an unforeseen bond would ultimately bring them together. Everyone carries secrets, but hers might go deeper than he's ever seen. He might be ruthless, but there's an even darker side to it. Their wolves are wild and defiant, both battling for dominance. But only one will stand on top.
