Using powers can age you, kill you...or drive you mad.
Ian Sharp knows none of this when his destructive powers wreck his house near Denver and nearly kill his sister...because no one knows powers exist.
He's forced on the run the day before graduation as the ruthless Hunters of a vicious shadow government track him down. Soon, he finds himself in a hidden, underground city built by giants before the great flood. A city full of people with special abilities. But Ian is drawn to the only one without powers-Abby Pierce.
Just when the two are growing closer, a Hunter spy frames Ian for murder, getting him exiled. Ian must risk his sanity and depend on an insane teleporting monk to help him find the city again before Abby falls victim to cold-blooded murder.
-----
The science, archaeology, theology, and history in the Winter's Edge series are real, except in regard to the direct backstory of the two fictitious underground city. Little-known truths about the world are exposed in the book series with solid, irrefutable evidence from mainstream scientific researchers. Book one gives the readers one large dose of this, but the future novels in the series will truly leave the readers speechless.
Told through the eyes of Ian Sharp and Abby Pierce, Winter's Edge is an action adventure urban fantasy for teens and adults alike. Whether it's mystery, twists, a love story, deep philosophical discussion, humor, or loads of tension you're seeking, Winter's Edge delivers it all in a serious yet sometimes hilarious package.

Run with the Devil (SAMPLE)
A stolen life. A forbidden romance. An age-gap MM love story where desire becomes the most dangerous risk of all. Tommy // I didn't mean to end up here-scraping by, following in my deadbeat dad's footsteps, chasing a version of myself that doesn't feel real anymore. Then Adrian Ashford showed up, all control and calm danger, and suddenly I couldn't tell if I was being saved or swallowed whole. He offers me work, a purpose, a way out of the trailer park. But every time he looks at me like that, I forget what I'm running from. Adrian // I built my life on discipline, on following rules that keep everything in order. But Tommy tests every one of them. He's reckless, defiant, and too damn alive for the world I live in. The more I try to keep him at a distance, the more I find myself breaking the one rule the boss gave me: don't touch him. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds.

Her Safe Haven
"For him, she was adrenaline." . . . Winter McHalen seemed to have everything: parents who owned a multi-billion dollar company, two handsome brothers who just happened to get the loving-brothers genes, and a ridiculously beautiful look. One summer afternoon, however, a six-year-old Winter was kidnapped by her father's former rival and was traumatised into being mute. Ten years later, the current sixteen-year-old Winter still struggled to come to terms with her dark past. When she crossed path with the mysterious Rohan Garrison: heir to neighbouring international corporation, student council president, and a perfect gentleman who seemed to be harbouring much more secrets behind his stoic facade; the two kept finding themselves tumbling into each other's lives - with or without their own wills. He was aloof yet affable, she was bold yet reserved; he was neither a protector nor predator, she was neither a badass nor damsel-in-distress; but they were two qualities - both coexisting at the same time and were unpredictable variables in each other's lives. And they both didn't know whether to like or despise it. Watch Winter as she journeyed into adulthood and tried to get back the voice which she lost. With both existing as naturally opposing forces, could Rohan - with the help of her family, friends, and possibly other love interests - save Winter from her past, or will she be trapped forever in her affliction? {Highest: #1 in Young Adult #1 in General Fiction #5 in New Adult #226 in Teen Fiction 28/12/2019} *images used are not mineComplete

The Rule Of Elites
She was a girl ensnared by secrets and scars. He was a boy forged from power and frost. When an enigma collides with an Elite, they must either heal or descend into their own hell to survive. --- Seventeen-year-old Elaine Winters has one goal: to endure the torment of her bullies and ignore the new student who seems utterly out of place in their small town and public school. Alexander White is a boy she needs to stay away from-stunningly handsome, immensely rich, and dangerously cold. He is privileged beyond any normal measure. Catching his attention was a chance mistake. His relentless pursuit of her friendship, an anomaly. And when it turns into something deeper, it becomes the ultimate disaster in the making. But when buried secrets emerge from their caskets, Winter finds herself pulled into his world of city lights, power, mind games, and the elite atmosphere of boarding school. Soon, everything she thought she knew about the boy from her town is turned upside down. He becomes everything her heart dreads-and a danger her mind warns her of. She is his obsession, and he is her curse. Every belief is tested, but none of them is bound to win against the rule of Elites. A world where truth is what they make it. ◾ REVIEWS It is one of the best book I've ever read.

Days of Darkness: Winter's Rage
Three years have passed since the brutal showdown between Damien and Dante, and for the first time in half a decade, peace has settled over Chicago and the rest of the world. The chaos that once defined daily life has begun to fade as nations rebuild and governments rise once again from the ashes of collapse. Streets once filled with ruin now hum with the cautious optimism of people daring to believe in a better tomorrow. The scars of war remain visible, but they serve as reminders of resilience and the hard-fought struggle to restore order in a world that had fallen into darkness. Yet victory came at a heavy price. Though Dante was defeated, the heroes who fought to save humanity did not emerge unscathed. Cyris's death left an irreplaceable void among the Pack, while Damien's mysterious disappearance has haunted those who survived. In his absence, Christian, Diamond, and Nadia have taken it upon themselves to guide others toward recovery, working tirelessly to rebuild a sense of normalcy in the city they once fought to protect. But their fragile peace shatters when a wave of powerful earthquakes tears through Chicago, followed by the sudden emergence of a shadowy army that floods the streets. The Pack is forced to reunite and face a new threat that may be far more sinister than anything they've encountered before. Days of Darkness: Winter's Rage is a story of endurance, loyalty, and rediscovery set against the backdrop of a world teetering between rebirth and ruin. As the Pack uncovers the truth behind the quakes and the invading force, they find themselves drawn into a conflict that transcends time and dimension. Old alliances will be tested, buried secrets will rise, and the line between past and future will blur. In the midst of it all, they must confront what it truly means to fight for freedom-and for family-when the world itself begins to fracture once more.Complete
Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
