    In the Blood Court, power is not inherited. It is enforced. Aster Vale is the Court's deadliest enforcer, bound to silence, loyalty, and violence without question. He does not hesitate.

CROWNLESS BLOOD is a dark vampire romance series about power, forbidden attraction, and the moment two men become an anomaly the system cannot classify.

    COMPLETED. A sport psychology intern. The star forward on a professional hockey team. The only thing standing between them? The rules. The Toronto Saints aren't who Harlow Marchesa asked for, but they're who she got. Months away from graduating with her Master's in Sport Psychology, she's been tasked with helping this talented, worshipped, and yet, underperforming professional hockey team achieve playoff success for her internship. Her goal is clear: Make the most of this high-stakes opportunity to further her career. And speaking of goals--hello, Angelo Bradford. Despite the near instant mutual attraction with the star forward who's practically a celebrity in her hometown, Harlow knows he's completely off limits. That's been hammered home since her first shift as the intern. They try to fight it, but it's not long before the professional turns personal, with stolen glances and kisses that are hot enough to melt the ice. And if they get caught? Well, it just might be game over. For both of them. Cover designed on Canva with photo by Samantha Gades on Unsplash.

    Ash & Asphalt: Strangers Made of Scars is a slow‑burn, emotionally charged romance set in the shadows between outlaw biker worlds. Alexi, a girl shaped into a weapon by a violent trafficking ring tied to the Mexican cartel, escapes the only life she's ever known - and runs straight into Jax's Dive, a neutral‑ground biker bar owned by Wyatt, a man with his own ghosts. Wyatt walked away from one of the most feared biker clubs in the region, a group tied to the Russian cartel and steeped in drugs, weapons, and bloodshed - but never trafficking. He built his bar as a sanctuary, a place where violence stops at the door. When Alexi stumbles into his world, terrified and hunted, Wyatt recognizes the look in her eyes - the look of someone who survived the kind of darkness he barely escaped himself. As danger closes in, Alexi begins to rediscover pieces of herself she thought were gone forever - softness, humor, warmth - and Wyatt finds himself falling for the girl who doesn't know how to be anything but guarded. Together, they learn that healing isn't quiet, safety isn't simple, and love is the bravest rebellion of all. But the past doesn't stay buried. And when Alexi's abilities and true identity are forced into the light, both of them will have to decide how far they're willing to go - and who they're willing to become - to protect each other.
