Roux Faulkner is a pariah - gifted in a world where magic is outlawed. Cast out to live on the fringes of society, she lives a life of solitude where one mistake could determine her fate. But when she discovers the lost tower of the ancient Gods, she finds herself lost in a world she never knew she was a part of. With dire consequences.
But there are secrets hidden among the ruins - secrets that could change her life. Now with the knowledge she's the vessel of the goddess of war, Roux must use her wits and powers in order to survive the otherworldly terrain.
Thrust into an ages-long war between good and evil, Roux must avoid the Gods and beasts after her soul, a kingdom after her head and restore balance to her homeland.

Nogard
Book one in the Gold Saga In a realm where ancient rites and primordial forces still hold sway, a young woman's life is forever altered after she drinks from a ceremonial chalice that gifts her with an Ill Omen. Ravena finds herself in the crosshairs of warring factions - from the fanatical coven that has cultivated her as their "Blessed Vessel", to the astonishing emergence of powerful draconic behemoths. When one towering dragonlord turns its smoldering, bestial regard upon Ravena's exposed form, it ignites a conflagration that will scorch away her reality and thrust her into a dark mythological universe. A world where dragons rule as elemental demigods, rendering humanity as mere playthings to satiate their primal hungers. Caught between clashing dynasties, draconic mysteries, and the haunting resonance of that dragonlord's blazing stare, Ravena has two paths before her - to somehow reclaim her fragile human existence, or surrender to the untamed power that now storms through her veins. Steeped in eroticism and primal mysticism, Nogard is a searing dark fantasy where myth and flesh intertwine.
Chronicles of Alora: Stargazer
Beneath a sky stitched with constellations and secrets, three girls were born on the same winter night-a princess cloaked in shadow, a conqueror wrapped in flame, and a light-bearer destined to scatter the darkness. Each carries a thread of an ancient prophecy, their fates bound to the future of the kingdom and the balance of a world teetering on the edge of ruin. Eve knows nothing of this prophecy. Growing up in the quiet mountain village of Starling Hollow, her life has been shaped by whispered tales of the Fae, restless dreams, and a gnawing sense of not quite belonging. But when glowing lights begin to call her into the ancient Aurorian Forest, Eve discovers the truth: she is not who she thinks she is. Stolen as a child and stripped of her memories, Eve is Alora-the light-bearer of prophecy. And the Fae, long thought to be extinct, are waiting for her return. Guided by visions and whispers of the past, Eve must navigate a fractured kingdom, unravel the mystery of her stolen identity, and reclaim the power hidden within. But not all lights shine for good, and not all who seek her mean her well. The path to the Vale of the Fairies is treacherous, and the choices she makes will determine not only her fate, but the fate of the entire kingdom. In a world where stars hold secrets, forests whisper names, and magic is both a gift and a curse, Eve must decide: will she follow the light, or be consumed by the shadows?
Prophecy
In the shadows of history lies a secret religion - the first of its kind - whose ancient prophecy foretells a battle for mankind's fate. Two girls, bound by destiny, possess extraordinary powers they themselves don't yet understand. One is destined to unleash chaos that could end the world; the other holds the key to its salvation. As dark forces conspire to keep them apart, demons with their own hidden agendas lurk in the depths, determined to thwart the prophecy at all costs. Yet, among the ordinary, there exist chosen protectors - beings straddling the line between humanity and something otherworldly-who are sworn to ensure the girls' paths intertwine. In a race against time, as shadows deepen and secrets unravel, will they embrace their destinies or be lost to the darkness? A tale of power, betrayal, and the haunting question of choice awaits in this gripping story where every moment could tip the balance between salvation and annihilation.

For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.

From the Ashes
In a land ravaged by war and destruction, it's not uncommon to find orphans and wanderers with no set path and little knowledge of themselves. Morana is no exception. Her life has been one of inconsistency, moving from place to place every few years, always trying to keep ahead of an unknown danger. But she can't hide forever, and danger is quickly closing in. When a brutal attack leaves Morana alone and on the run, she has no choice but to search for answers, both about herself and about the Dark Lord pursuing her. Her only clue leads her to someone who may have the answers she seeks, but can she trust one who was created by her enemy? Time is running out for everyone and the end of an age approaches. Morana will either rise from the ashes or find herself in a grave beneath them. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real and mature elements.
