The wielders are coming, and they're ready for violence. With a cub in her arms, Arietta James, a dedicated vet technician in training, flees for her life and the life of the little shifter she's ready to die to protect. Her escape lands her right in the heart of the enemy territory: the shifters. Gavriel O'Connor, steadfast leader of the shifter territory, has worked too hard on rebuilding and unifying his people to allow a human to run rampant in his domain. Fully intending to turn her away, Gavriel prepares to rid his territory of another nuisance. Until his shifter side won't let him. There are too many questions about this young woman and not enough answers. His biggest question: how did she end up with one of his own? Arietta didn't imagine she'd live this long. Between the shifters and the wielders, she's braced for her final moments. However, when the shifters begrudgingly welcome her into their territory, she must make a decision: stay loyal to those of her kind, or reveal to the shifters a problem that could wipe them out entirely. Before it's too late-for them and for her. Season 1 of The Fated Series

~ Kinley ~ In the world before, the balance fell. Some say it's because the war between the two sisters of the afterlife got out of hand. Others aren't believers. But I know the truth. The world fell because of a beast, the same beast my sister has been called to slay. There are only two futures for an eevie like me: tend the Emerald Flame and endure life as a temple priestess or become a member of The Thorn, the shield maids of The Willow who protect the balance. At .0003% of the supernatural population, our numbers are sparse, and soon The Year of the Beast will be upon us. What's an eevie to do? Enroll in Nadora college, become a mayru, and infiltrate the vampire faction. I won't let my sister do this alone and if walking straight into the enemy's lair is what it takes, I'll do it. Priestess hood can wait. ~ Tristan ~ Two thousand years, that's was my penitence for being "a monster". Betrayed, locked up, and left with only a snack. The world may have forgotten about me but it won't take long for earth's inhabitants to remember who I am once I retrieve my stolen sword--the blood will flow, heads will roll, and hearts will part. The best part, I got let out early. As I'm concerned, the Year of the Beast starts now. Author note: - This is an original work with my take on Vampires. - This is the THIRD book in my Blood and Honey series.

❃ AWARD-WINNING PUBLISHED NOVEL ❃ BOOK I OF THE TRANSCENDENCE SERIES ❃ Growing up during the centuries-long conflict between the empires of Egypt and Hatti, the young princess Istara is taken hostage by the King of Hatti to secure the loyalty of her father, the King of Kadesh to the empire. Soon her new life in Hatti's glittering capital becomes all she knows. Bound in blood before the gods to Hatti's unwilling crown prince, Istara, now Hatti's queen-in-waiting, learns she will never be loved. But the drums of war beat again, and when the scheming plans of Hatti's king threaten the existence of all civilization, the gods give Istara a choice: to leave behind everything she knows to save mankind, or remain where she is, powerless, a token on the game board of kings. On the brink of one of the most brutal battles in history, she chooses to risk her life to deliver a message to the only man able to prevent the prophecy from becoming a reality--her mortal enemy, the Pharaoh Ramesses II. Wounded, cold and hungry, she wanders in the battle's horrific aftermath, and aids a powerful commander, who she learns protected her once, and has been bound to her ever since by a prophetic dream of his future. Despite his resistance, and Istara once more becoming a pawn of kings, they must confront an eternal love so powerful, not even kings, the gods, or death can keep them apart.
