Zoey Ram. The girl that had a troubled past. The girl that escaped her abusive step father, the death of her mother, and her unstable life as a freak with abilities. She ran and found refuge in the Omega Compound; the place where people with abilities can get along and have a safer and happier life. Turns out that place wasn't so positive. It was a place of terror, death, and betrayal. So what did this girl do? After learning the lies of her life, the rallying of other compounds and the plan to take over the world with super freaks, Zoey had no other choice but to rid the anger inside her. She blew the damn thing up. Now, with no home, with no friends, and with no more safety, Zoey is left to run away again and make another life, only this ones going to be better. Or so she thinks.

Rene has escaped the pit of darkness that was the Asylum. The years of pain and terror were now nothing more than ashes on the ground. However, the madness cultivated there continues to consume her. Even with her friends' help, she is struggling not to drown. They are all on the run now, from Dr. Laurel and his team that seek to rip the ink from Rene's skin. Friends, new allies, and enemies are set up on the game board, each with a strategy for an unknown end-goal. Michael's past has begun to come to light and with it comes the horrifying truth about what really hides in the shadows. Karo and Kai, the ancient dragons that embody of chaos and order tattooed on her arms, fight to bring balance to the world and drag Rene with them into the battle. Fairy tales say dragons are meant to be slain and damsels to be saved. Good thing Rene always hated fairy tales.

For Rene Sparks, it all began with some ink and a knife. Two dragons, one black, the other one white, appeared from nowhere to adorn her arms when she was only eleven. Their sudden appearance and permanent stains of "imperfection" sent her teetering mother over a cliff of madness to the point where she tried to cut the abominations off Rene's arms. They were the constants in her life, the dragon tattoos and the scars that traced them. Unable to fit in with the normals of society, years later, she was placed in a boarding school for youths with mental health issues, affectionately called the Asylum by its residents. The Asylum though was no haven for the insane and Rene struggled to cling to what shred of sanity there might be left from a failing system of experimental treatments and corrupted caretakers as the tattoos on her skin continue to grow in number. Rene's life was no fairy tale and she was certainly no princess, but perhaps even an insane girl can become a hero when they have some dragons up their sleeves.

My eyes focused on the staff behind the bar, searching for someone to take my order. That's when I felt the air around me change, it was like someone had turned down the volume and I felt a wave of energy roll towards me. "I know what you are," he whispered into my ear as I felt his power crash towards me and absorb in through my skin. ----------- Present day London is the backdrop for a medieval style power play for the magical throne, where five families of influence fight for power and control, all with their own motives. In the middle of this struggle, stumbles in an art university graduate and photographer Cara, who believes in the power of music and certainly not the power of magic. She quickly learns that she is something that has been raised up to mythical proportions - an ordinary human who has the power to suck the magic out of any warlock.

It was everything she could have hoped for and more. Much more, as she was to discover on the sunrise of her nineteenth birthday. Lost in the world of a superior race, survival begins to take on a whole new meaning when Ali realises she not only fights for her own life but for the lives of thousands of other humans just like herself. That is, once they figure out a way to eradicate an entire army of Fallen Angels. Their journey takes them from the tame English countryside to the wild, unexplored Russian mountain ranges in search for a being only heard of in angelic folklore, which may just have the answers they are looking for. And if things couldn't get more complicated in Ali's life, she can't help but do the one thing she has been forbidden from doing. Despite her best efforts she begins to fall for the one man she can't have - the man with the Ebony Wings. (NB: This is a completed, standalone novel.)

Betrayal follows her, the Angels are against her, and the Devil is on her tail. As Lucifer's Daughter Abbegael must hide her identity from both Heaven and Hell if she is to survive. All she wants is to return home but when Lucifer's plan starts to take shape she realises she is the key to destroying Heaven and she may be the only one who can save it. Razakiel has been the Devil's right hand man ever since the Fall. He despises Lucifer and everything he's done, but when he discovers Abbegael's secret he finally has a chance to get home. Because sacrificing the Devil's daughter could be the one thing to save him and Heaven alike. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trapped within the fiery depths of Hell, her only chance of escape is him; a stranger, the enemy. "I'm not going to hurt you," he growls in my ear, "Neither am I going to hand you over to that Bastard." I flinch at the anger in his voice and confusion rushes through me. "What?" I squeak, attempting to get air into my constricted lungs. He sighs, the warm air brushing against my neck, sending goose bumps skittering across my skin. "I'm not going to tell him you intend to escape. How can I when I plan to do the same thing?" My mind whirls as I attempt to understand what he is saying. He wants to escape? But he is one of Lucifer's most trusted. How does that even happen? He's lying. "I'm not lying. I needed him to trust me or I would never find a way to get out." "You know a way out? Wait. Did you just read my thoughts? How did you just read my thoughts? I thought you were a shield!" Once again his sigh of exasperation leaves goose bumps on my skin and a shiver running down my spine. "I am a shield. It just so happens that I'm a reader too. Yes, that is possible. Obviously. Now can I let you go, or are you going to try and kill me again?" © 2013 by Froggie27.

Dana's best friend Kitty has died in a car accident, and the only ray of light in the misery is when her grandmother appears in her spiffy red sports car to cheer her up. At the same time a nightmarish shadow appears to hunt Dana and she has to flee from her ordinary life with grandma, who turns out to be something quite different than what Dana had thought - a Huntress of Shadows. The truth about her ancestry is not an easy thing for Dana to accept - she was deliberately created to perform a task, to find something that should stay hidden, or it might threaten the world of humans as Dana knows it. Her existence is tied to the myth of the Nephilim, the descendants of angels, and her creator was someone who commands the forces of chaos and darkness, the source of all horror myths of humankind. Dana learns there is a world of shadows, the afterlife, dreams and time travel, surrounding the physical world, hidden behind a thin veil - and that there are ways to enter it from the physical world. Dana has no option - she is being hunted by creatures of darkness, and the hunt can only end in either Dana and everyone she loves being captured and turned into creatures of darkness - or Dana finding what she was created to find. Her hunters have skills no ordinary human can escape - but Dana is not an ordinary human. Nor is Daniel, the leader of a hidden Center fighting the darkness. Together with a chosen team they could travel the Unseen Worlds that surround the physical world, into the past, following a clue written down in ancient Egypt, and then walk the Trail of Angels, and find the hidden mystery before the dark creatures do. Dana must prepare for a long search in another time and place, knowing that both she and Daniel are wanted and hunted by the darkness. At stake is her love, and the destiny of the human kind.
