Religion rules Constantine's world...and she has been condemned as the Spawn of the Devil. She is a Champion, a human being blessed with superhuman abilities by the deities of her world. However, her patron happens to be the Lord of War and Strategy - and women were never supposed to be Champions of War. In order to survive in a world that would rip her apart, she disguises as a boy, training to fulfil her supposed destiny. But fate has other things in store for her. An ancient evil is rising - and only Constantine may have the power needed to fight it. Along with a brash warrior and a too-perceptive scholar, Constantine begins to unravel secrets of a prophecy foretelling the end of the world. Now, she must learn how to fight evil with nothing but a magical knife as well as powers she knows next-to-nothing of. The real problem though? She may have been the one to call the great evil in the first place. ************ Now a Wattpad Featured story!

**** From the 2016 Watty Award winning author of White Fire**** Burst into this fantasy fairytale and journey to the land of Noch where everyone is born with a soul gift. Some are born with extraordinary visions, others with speed or strength. The greater the gift, the greater the ranking will be in the kingdom. But this isn't true for Sun, who is born with the rare gift of beauty. From birth, a prophecy was placed on her life, that her beauty will cause two princes to turn against each other as they fall in love with her. This brotherly rivalry will only be the beginning of the great war that will sweep across the land. To prevent this, Sun's father hides her away in a deep forest, hoping to prevent the worse from happening. That is, until Sun is spotted in the village and word spreads of her existence. All over the kingdom, people whisper about the "Beautiful One" until it reaches the King. He sends his knights to fetch Sun and bring her to the castle, where he will examine her gift and give her rank within his kingdom. And when all catches sight of her beauty, all will bow down in awe. Sun does everything in her power to avoid the King's two sons, Crow and Christian, but can't seem to escape the pull of their lure. Christian is charm and Crow is war, and both men are devastatingly handsome. They are both also willing to kill each other to gain her hand. When true love begins to bud like the rarest rose, Sun's heart is torn in half. The prophesy of the two brothers is unfolding, but if choosing one prince over the other means destroying her kingdom, Sun would rather disappear than face the consequences.

COMPLETE #1 in Fantasy #1 in Adventure #1 in Historical Fiction ---------- Sometimes, believing helps us to see truth. Other times, we need a little evidence to believe. But there is truth behind everything; every false manoeuvre, ever little lie...a small piece of truth is hidden. Just like truth is wound into legends too. Growing up best friend to the future King, Arabelle never really thought her life could go wrong. Whenever she wanted something, or needed something, she would get it. Then she lost her father at a young age and Arabelle was forced into a world of dresses, balls, and lies. Being a tomboy, Arabelle would have rather been out on her horse doing archery practice with her brothers. When Arabelle gets curious and sneaks into a forbidden area of the castle, she discovers a deadly secret: her bloodline is sacred, dating back to a legend surrounded by the one thing she knows not to be true. Unsure what to do, she gets caught up in a series of events that lead to her being hidden and whisked away from the only familiar place she knew. After making some unlikely allies, Arabelle sets off on a journey to find the legend of the last dragon egg. Fate has something big in store for her; will she be able to withstand the pressure of it all?There is one thing Arabelle needs to learn to survive this new place... Some things are more than a legend. ---------- © Isabella Espe 2013 - 2019 This is a work of fiction.

Because she's the key to breaking the curse, and they'll do whatever it takes to keep her there so they can finally be free.
