**Available on Amazon KU and paperback** All Bria wanted to do was go for a hike in her favorite Fjord. She didn't plan on falling through a stone portal into a new realm. *** Now, Bria is stuck in a land full of Vikings, where dark magic and war is all they know. But a myth tells of a warrior who will enter Volheimer and save them all, freeing them from their imprisonment between worlds. But Bria isn't anyone's savior. With no other choice before her, Bria starts to make a life for herself in the town of Daganold. She becomes fast friends with a Watcher named Emblyn and she certainly isn't falling in love with the king. *** Alarik is the new King of Daganold and he isn't ready. His father wasn't meant to die on the battlefield, not yet. But such is the will of the gods, damn them. He doesn't believe in the myth, in the stories they tell children to explain their existence. But when a woman with striking eyes and sharp witt falls into his care, he doesn't know what he believes anymore. Is it true? Is their time stuck between worlds truly coming to end? And if it is, was the king falling in love with the savior foretold, too?

Haunting her nightmares are memories of the evil organization that trained her to be a murdering assassin. One of her worst fears comes to life when she is captured by a government organization and forced into a team with seven other enhanced individuals. Along with a strongman, two orphans, one healer, a charming criminal, a slight lunatic and a crime lord, she must take out a rising evil that is killing innocent people for an unknown purpose. This group of criminals have to come together if they have any hope of surviving to unravel the mystery that is not as it seems.

Ultimately, Delphinium and her crew will have to ask: "Can the past really stay in the past?" Eventually, the truth will emerge...

"The Blind God walks around me, and I feel my mind prodded again like it was in the cavern, a spider weaving a tangled web. "Would you do anything to be remembered, Ode, even play a villain, the one who rises against the Chosen One?" In answer, I draw my dagger and make a slight incision against my thumb. Blood drips down, hot against my flesh. I hold my hand out as an oath, a promise. My ghouls hiss, yearning to drink. "I would rather reign over darkness than grovel as a servant to the light." *FEMALE ROBIN HOOD MEETS ONE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS* Ode Ngayoh is the only child of a bloodthirsty desert warlord. When the Blind God chooses her as champion, she's deemed a dark witch, a blemish against the Empire for her necromantic powers of summoning ghΕ«ls, the undead. Facing off against the prince and his handsome lover, Ode stands alone with the cursed god's favor. However, the more Ode defends the outcasts of the Empire, the more she finds herself being labelled a villain...

⭐ FEATURED ⭐ 02/16/2018 Longlisted, Wattys 2018 βœ… COMPLETE Jocasta's nineteen years of peaceful existence in a little village of the Kingdom of Ontur blew up in pieces without much warning: Grandmother had a secret, an old pact with a mysterious man-a pact that, apparently, Jo and her new tagalongs - a flamboyant mage, a goofball knight pledge and a young alchemist-now had to take care of, thanks to the untimely death of the King of Ontur. A quest to find an ancient place, concealing an artifact of unmeasurable power and rumored to be deadly. And posthaste, before it falls into the wrong hands. That's something all grandmothers ask of their granddaughters sometime in their lifetime, right? And all that was at stake was the stability of the kingdom: no pressure. Set in a world where magic is vital, where mages are as equally feared and shunned as they're needed. A temporarily Kingless kingdom where vultures wait for the perfect time to take a plunge. A world where secrets and lies are as abundant, dangerous and necessary as magic. But something else brews in the Kingdom of Ontur: something bigger than Jocasta and her Grandmother's secrets. ⭐ 1st place in Fantasy, The Crystal Crown Awards 2017 || Highest ranking : #46 in Fantasy 03/04/2018 #writteninaction you can read a review here: https://www.wattpad.com/471550430-island-of-lost-toys-reviews-great-reads-for-the
