Faoladh (Noun; A werewolf in Irish mythology, a human who can take the form of a wolf, not as a punishment, but as a role.) Long ago, wolves were sacred, with ancient magic running throigh their veins. And then, they were hunted. The hunting angered an old goddess, she stole away the hunters wives and daughters and turned them into something new. Faoladh - Werewolves. Now, that ancient magic is bleeding out of the land of Fenel. As far as Sorcha Mactire knows, shes the last of her kind. She was raised her in the Foraoise Dorcha - the largest, most ancient forest in Fenel. The magic of the forest is fading, and she is desperate to find a way to preserve it. But time has run out. The King of New Gealia has just ordered the total extermination of the forest's wolves, and any Faoladh hiding among them. Aaron Draycott has no interest hunting wolves. He's a bounty hunter, searching for the man who murdered his sister in cold blood ten years ago. When the King's decree threatens to draw his target into the open, Aaron tracks the hunt straight into the heart of the ancient woods. Instead of a killer, Aaron is confronted by a fierce, wild girl who commands the forest's dying magic. To Aaron, she is the brilliant, sharp-fanged guide he needs to survive the woods and catch his target. But to Sorcha, Aaron represents everything she hates, a dangerous human hunter. To achieve their goals, they must form a fragile alliance. Aaron is determined to earn her trust, but Sorcha would sooner tear his throat out than let him close, even if it could save her pack and home. Cover art by Jessica Cioffi (loputyn)

Maeve Lynch was the youngest daughter of Joey and Aoife Lynch. Unlike her older brother Aj, Maeve wasn't a model student. She was often getting into trouble and she always said yes to a party. But would that make her feel less alone? Or will that be her downfall? Liam Holland was not his father. As much as he tried though, he couldn't get away from the family name. Until he met her. He wouldn't ruin another Lynch- not like his father did. But will he heal her, or will she slip away?

1913. As the Russian Empire celebrates three hundred years of Romanov rule, Lady Maeve Fitzgerald travels from Ireland to Russia with her family to forge a partnership between Glenara's renowned hunters and the Imperial Orlov stud at Zalesye. What begins as a discussion of horses soon becomes something far more personal. Far from the glittering ceremonies of St. Petersburg, Maeve discovers a family unlike any she has known. Grand Duke Alexander and Grand Duchess Elena have built a life where duty is balanced with laughter, where loyalty is earned, and where their children-from thoughtful Andrei to spirited Natalia and the irrepressible twins-welcome the Fitzgeralds into a world that slowly begins to feel like home. As Maeve and Andrei's quiet friendship deepens into something neither expected, both families find their lives becoming increasingly intertwined. But beyond the warmth of Zalesye, Europe is changing. Ancient alliances are shifting, old certainties are beginning to crack, and the future of empires-and the families who serve them-will soon be tested in ways none of them can imagine. Some bloodlines are inherited. Others are chosen. And the strongest families are built by both.

For hundreds of years, the Otherworld flourished beneath an ancient pact between, the land, and the mysterious Aos Sí. King Ciarán in his quest for domination and power broke that pact destroying the sacred Bile trees. Now sacred groves stand silent. Rivers run black with corruption. The old magic is fading, and fear rules from the throne. Hidden beyond the veil of the mortal world, the Aos Sí have spent years waiting for a prophecy to be fulfilled-a prophecy foretelling a daughter of the land who will rise against the tyrant and awaken the kingdom once more. When a young woman discovers she can hear the voices of trees and command the power of the living earth, she becomes the spark that ignites a rebellion. Hunted by the king's forces and burdened by a destiny she never asked for, she must unite a fractured kingdom before darkness consumes it forever. Her greatest ally is Fionn, a warrior of the Aos Sí as beautiful as he is dangerous. Three hundred years of waiting have left him doubtful of prophecies and wary of hope. Yet as ancient magic stirs and war draws near, he finds himself drawn to the one woman who sees beyond his immortal glamour. Together they must awaken forgotten powers, forge an alliance between the fae forces, and challenge a king whose roots reach deeper than anyone suspects. For some prophecies are not meant to be fulfilled. They are meant to be fought for.

This is a short, speculative folk horror piece. It is weird, original and under 2000 words. (A nice quick read.) While my current novel project is a Sci-Fantasy series, horror will always hold a special place in my heart and A Good Yield is the first in several short horror fiction pieces I have authored this year. I hope you enjoy.
