❝see I've come to burn your kingdom down❞ With the threat of Orion growing bigger each day and the prophecy looming over her, Katya has to work through her advantages: one of them being that she's the long lost daughter of the one of the five branches of royal werewolves: The Anosovas. Being forced into a family that she sees as strangers, Katya must accept her role as one of the royal family and she discovers powers she never knew she had: powers that could potentially tip the uneven playing field like never before. However Orion isn't the only major player on the field. A new hunter is out to get Katya for his own purposes; Erebus, the Vampire King. With vessels, affinities and situations that seem too extreme to be true, Katya has to find a way to end the war before it begins, and it all starts with figuring out just who exactly kidnapped her from the Anosovas.

"You know, it won't physically hurt you to be nice for once." I crossed my arms in front of my chest and groaned. "I don't want to take a chance." the corner of his lips lifted a little as he finished his sentence. "Well, you don't hear me complaining. The view of a someone so desperately working out is not a delight either." I retorted in a weary voice. "I bet it isn't." he narrowed his eyes at me and commented. Ugh.. Why is he so damn annoying? "You know what, just take your arrogant ass out of my room." I scowled at him, pointing towards the door. With small steps, he walked towards me. I took a step backwards when he neared me. He was invading my personal space, making me a bit flustered. The urge to push back his golden-brown hair covering his forehead was increasing with every passing second. "Gladly." he mumbled against my face and then walked past me out of my room. It took me a minute to calm down my racing heartbeat. ... He was a mystery, an enigma I wanted to solve. He was exhausting, he was infuriating, yet staying away from him was not an option. He was making me feel things I haven't felt before. Adam McArdle! Who are you and what are you doing to my poor little heart? ... #1 in GENERAL FICTION (23-05-2019) #1 in CHICKLIT (21-07-2019)

But it is easier said than done as her crush just happened to be a serious, strict and no-nonsense type of guy who sees her as nothing more than a rich spoilt brat. Welcome to Ella's eventful and dramatic life that surrounds her long-overdue love confession. ~~~~~~~~ [Blurb] "Did I hear it right?" Sam turned to me, "you are interested in Michael?" He asked me unbelievably. "Yes, is that a problem?" I raised my chin. Sam chuckled. "Of all the things, you selected the project to confess your feelings? You do realise that you are the bottom-ranked student and he is the top-ranked in his batch and a university gold medalist?" "I have no other way to approach him. Michael is not interested in anything else and we don't have much time left," "How can you be so sure that it's Michael?" "Because I believe in destiny," I said. "You know, 'Someone somewhere is made for you, I think that person is Senior Michael for me and I am in love with him." "What!? You love him?" Sam stopped on his track. "Yeah." "You sure are weird," he muttered. "Anyway, I am really looking forward to seeing you prove it." "What about the project?" I looked at him hopefully. "Since I am the...um...last-ranked student in the class, he won't select me." "I will think of a way," he promised. "Thank you, Sam!" I said excitedly. "I will never forget this help." "I am so looking forward to seeing Michael falling head over heels for you," Sam winked before walking away. (The pictures/ cartoons/ anime images are taken from google.

"Your problem is that your heart is too big, it leaves you vulnerable and makes you weak." He spoke in such certainty that it brought tears to my eyes, because it was the truth. I was vulnerable and delicate, I was weak and let my guard down too much. "You put your heart on your sleeve. You are oblivious to evil and peoples capabilities because you cannot imagine a person like that, you are blinded by your good nature." "What about yours?" I asked hesitantly, trying to keep the shake out of my voice. He looked at me with confusion for a second so I continued, "What about your heart?" I questioned. He looked at me with his dark eyes, his stare like stone. "I haven't got one." ******* Angela and Adriano are like fire and ice, they are complete opposites. But what happens when Angela gets thrown into Adriano's dangerous lifestyle? Can Adriano protect her from the evils he faces every day? Or does it become too much for the innocent Angela to cope with? *Warning: There maybe be strong language in some of the chapters.* #26 in Romance 10/04 #4 in Romance 19/06 #2 in Romance 28/07 #1 in Romance 03/09
