*Book One of the Amor Fati Series* Prince Calanthe Sáevon, once the child of a beloved queen regnant and now a disgraced prince, goes on a journey to re-discover his identity after experiencing tragedy, loss, and abuse at the hands of his Aunt, Queen Hyacinth of Eglantine. The small kingdom of Eglantine has fallen under the control of the Tarynians: the dreaded conquerors of Gharash. Each kingdom must produce a token of loyalty to give to the Tarynians as a sign of good faith and loyalty. Calanthe is chosen by Queen Hyacinth to be the sacrifice that saves Eglantine from the worst of the Tarynian King's rage. Hyacinth forces Calanthe to play along to distract the Tarynians from the brewing trouble in the East, but it doesn't unfold as she expected. Calanthe, once free from the torture that he experienced, begins to deconstruct the lies he had been told since birth. Along Calanthe's way, he befriends the Tarynian King Hrafn and together they formulate a plan to save the Gharashian people from the tyrant King Aelfgar of Eadburga.

In a clash of academic focus and coastal freedom, a geology student and a surfer unearth unexpected passion between the fossil-rich cliffs and rolling waves of a picturesque college town. ***** Geology student Charlie Hill and surf-enthusiast Hazel MacDowell have little in common apart from the fact that Hazel's father is Charlie's favorite professor. After getting off on the wrong foot, Charlie and Hazel are unexpectedly thrown together on an elite, four-week internship at a paleontological dig site. Sparks fly, and soon their rivalry becomes a romance, but a closely-held secret soon puts their budding relationship to the test. Do Charlie and Hazel have what it takes to overcome the odds, or will their love turn to stone like the fossils buried in Crestwood's cliffs?

Finally free of the possessions that plagued him since childhood, Carlos moves to Spring Lakes and opens his own auto-garage. But even a life free of demons isn't a walk in the park, and Carlos soon has plenty of earthly problems to worry about. As he struggles to get a fledgling business off the ground and make ends meet, he barely has time to think of much else, and remains luckless in love. When his hapless assistant, Kyle, turns up dead, however, Carlos finds himself in trouble of a different kind, and the new detective in town-John Turner-has Carlos pegged as suspect number one. Meanwhile, Carlos has his own reasons for wanting the murder solved. Kyle's ghost won't leave him alone, and obviously has something important to say, but Carlos fears opening himself to the supernatural; if he lets Kyle through, he worries what else might follow. Reluctantly, Carlos and Detective Turner join forces, and gradually develop a mutual respect-and possibly attraction, as well. But Turner isn't completely unattached, and Carlos wonders if he's once again a distant second choice, or worse-a consolation prize. Will Carlos be third-wheeling forever, or will he find his own true love at last?

Reports of abandoned children, roaming around in the wilds and refusing any human contact, were starting to become the hot topic. The humans who never encountered one of these children, deemed the reports nothing more than stories; fairytales designed to spook and scare people. But the very few that have spotted one of these wild and untamed children knew that these weren't just stories. They just didn't know the true nature of these wild, sometimes aggressive children. Feral shifters, abandoned at birth. Werecreatures that lived on instinct alone, until the were-community managed to capture them.

(This is a spin-off from Alpha to Omega. It can stand alone, though some characters are from AtO at the beginning.) What do a stubbornly-cute alpha werewolf and a mentally unstable vampire captain have in common? Absolutely nothing... yet.

Catina never had a reason to hate her strange appearance. Her golden hair and deep brown eyes- eyes that could be mistaken for red- had never caused her any misfortune. Until one night, the great conqueror arrived- a man who wanted the world for himself and would stop at nothing until it bowed at his feet. Catina's appearance fits that of his tribe's Goddess and he knows that she is the reincarnation of "Mikabellum." Taken suddenly from her home, and cast onto the high podium of deity, Catina finds that the world of richness and beauty is not all as it seems. Her mind soon revolves around a single thought- "think like a goddess." Copyright © 2019 world_joy_ all rights reserved.

Maverick had just landed an opportunity of a lifetime to hook up with his favourite romance author, only to find out that he doesn't believe in happily ever afters. ------------------------------------------ 'It's a simple ending,' Maverick shrugged. 'They get together and lived happily ever after.' 'Happiness is an illusion,' Caspian smiled wrily. 'Being happy ever after, an extended state of delusion.' 'You don't believe in happily ever afters?' Maverick raised an eyebrow at the most famous romance author in the world. Caspian shrugged again. 'Nope. But maybe-' he smirked, '-delusionally ever after?' Well. Guess I was fucked. In more ways than one.
