If you knew finding the talisman Alartaen would herald the ancient tree of Serolan casting its shadow in blood across the lands, would you try to find it?
Rimidalv Mileon can't refuse his latest mission from the powerful Ambassador Kael, though it's destined to be his greatest failure. He's charged with finding the legendary Alartaen, a sentient entity bound within a magical jewel that twists people and events to its will. In the world of Uritheal, Alartaen was forged as a symbol of racial unity against a common enemy, but in thirteen hundred years it has never been seen. Brilliant and obsessed, Rimidalv believes he has found the search's winning trick.
Stalking Rimidalv from the shadows is Syrah Avor, a foreign agent who seeks to destroy Alartaen before it can be used against her Serolan-worshiping nation. When Rimidalv is set up by the alluring Syrah as a traitor selling secrets to the enemy, Ambassador Kael attempts to have Rimidalv eliminated. Barely escaping Kael's wrath, Rimidalv finally abandons his search for Alartaen, but this time the talisman finds him—seeking refuge from Syrah's close pursuit.
The hunt is on. Rimidalv and Syrah both think they hold the ace, but it's Alartaen who's a step ahead, weaving them both into its plan.

The Flames of Eternity
The kingdom of Solarest is on the brink of collapse. Its rival, the dark empire of Umbra, is relentless in its pursuit of domination, and whispers of an ancient prophecy ignite hope and fear alike. At the center of this prophecy lies the Phoenix Talisman, a sacred artifact said to hold the power to unite or destroy kingdoms. Aarav, a skilled warrior of Solarest, is tasked with an impossible mission: to venture into the Forbidden Vale and retrieve the talisman. The vale, an ancient land shrouded in enchantments and danger, is a place from which few have returned. Aarav carries more than just his sword-he carries a shadowy past he is desperate to escape. On his journey, he encounters Zara, a fiercely independent archer who reveals herself to be the exiled princess of Umbra. Driven by a quest for justice and the desire to reclaim her stolen throne, Zara is also seeking the talisman. Despite their mistrust, they form an uneasy alliance, realizing that only together can they survive the perils of their journey. As they traverse treacherous landscapes, face mythical creatures, and uncover the secrets of the Phoenix Talisman, Aarav and Zara begin to break down the walls between them. Their shared struggles turn into a bond neither expected, and amidst the chaos of their mission, a fragile yet undeniable love begins to bloom. But their path is fraught with danger. Kael, a cunning sorcerer loyal to Umbra, is also on the hunt for the talisman, acting under the orders of the empire's tyrant ruler. Kael's allegiance is tested as he witnesses Aarav and Zara's determination, and the lines between enemy and ally blur. As the prophecy begins to unfold, Aarav and Zara uncover a devastating truth: the talisman's power comes at a price, one that could demand the ultimate sacrifice. With Solarest and Umbra on the verge of war, the fate of their kingdoms-and their love-rests in their hands.Complete
Tasperwood: Book One
Something or someone has poisoned the Rhyswater river, the font of magic for the human land of Rhysmark and the elvish Forelvenrest. To investigate the source of the taint, deep in the treacherously magic Tasperwood, the Rhysian queen sends two of her best: Griffon Mage Zacharus Ravenwood, and knight Sir Colkeith of Brookland. Zach is a powerful mage and lethal fighter, but touched by wild boggart blood, he loves nothing more than playing pranks-particularly on his brother-in-law apparent, Keith. Keith, at the command of his father, brings along his newly met half-brother Torin, a sweet-tempered, beautiful half-sylph with no interests other than sex and music. Although ordered to "make a man" out of Torin, Keith is not sanguine about his chances. Torin's only interested in his next conquest. Joining the humans are two elves: Oakheart Mage Trysstenirifell, and Foresteye Mage Vesperessillien. Tryss jumps at the chance to take the dangerous journey, grateful to put off an unwelcome marriage. Vesper comes from the most enigmatic and powerful branch of the elf family, the Foresteyes, and unwittingly scares the bugspit out of all he meets. His reasons for going are more complex, and no one would dare to inquire. As the oddly composed band sets off into the Tasperwood, they encounter not only physical dangers of every description, but dangers of the heart as well. Torin is determined to have Tryss, who holds back out of loyalty to the elves, who do not transgress with other races. Besides, he's engaged, however unwillingly. Zach feels drawn to Vesper, but fears Vesper and Tryss are a couple. Previously Zach had felt drawn to the straight Keith, who realizes he'd counted on the attention when Zach turns his attention elsewhere. And that's just the start. Can they get their relationships untangled before the Tasperwood and its creatures make mincemeat of them?Complete
