The uncontrollable power lurking beneath Princess Alethia's skin can either be the savior of the Four Kingdoms or its destruction. Princess Alethia was raised on three principles: (1) Mercy is for the weak, (2) Emotions are an unwanted distraction, and (3) The penalty for weakness is death. But even her mother's ruthless training cannot strip away Alethia's humanity buried deep within her. When her mother, Queen Liliana, breaks a Peace Treaty with the Gera Kingdom and begins a deadly war, Alethia must do the one thing she thought was impossible: stop her mother. An action-packed story about friendship, love, loyalty, power, and how far one princess is willing to go to save everything she cares about. {Word count: ~130,000} Highest achievements/Impressive rankings #3 in warriors out of 34.7K stories #1 in gemstones out of 2K stories #5 in tyrant out of 491 stories #48 in darkfantasy out 5.1K stories Previously featured in wattpad community creator reading list Awards 1st Place in fantasy: The Cerulean Awards (2020)

A woman on the edge... Christa Evans is having a rough night. She's lied to and harassed, then she loses her job. And that's before the crash that sends her car careening to the bottom of a cliff. She'd be dead if not for the big, bearded recluse who pulls her from the wreckage and carries her back to his cabin in the woods. The quintessential loner... Wounded hero Micah Graham has no time for visitors. So, when he brings home the woman who nearly died on his mountain, he'll take her in, but he doesn't plan to let her stay. Then the storm hits. Heating up the Holidays...together While the snow piles up, trapping the two strangers together in the middle of nowhere, Christa and Micah find common ground in the attraction burning between them, proving that not only do opposites attract, they combust. As things come to a head, the question is: What happens once the ice melts?

Seacliff is now only available on Inkitt. In 2019, Aidan is a kilt-wearing tour guide on the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh. In 1919, Saoirse is a Great War nurse who's got nothing left to live for - until the sea brings a naked, unconscious man to her feet. Not one easily shocked after caring for the most broken of men in France, Saoirse takes the stranger in and tends to his wounds. Except the man is all kinds of unusual and she begins to question whether he even is a man at all. Is the grief driving her mad or is there more to the world than she ever thought possible? Saoirse hopes to find answers in her Aunt Aoife's diaries, since the gentle giant she rescued from the sea has no recollection of how he ended up there in the first place. * Editors' Choice, December 2020 * an open novella contest entry which grew into a ~75k-word novel completed * prompt: "When something tragic happens, it's often said we lose a piece of ourselves.
