[COMPLETE, 100,000+] The Young Riders meets The Vampire Diaries in this tale of brother vs brother and blood magic in a secondary fantasy world. Llew has a gift. Her body heals itself from any injury-but at a cost to anyone nearby. In a small country ignorant of magic, freeing oneself from the hangman's noose isn't a good look. After dying and coming back thrice, Llew drops from the gallows into the hands of Jonas: the man carrying the knife with the power to kill her-permanently. The last of his warrior race, Jonas is surrounded by the ghosts of his loved ones. At his side, the cursed knife that took their lives. Jonas has learned the hard way that caring for others means their death. Jealousy of his half-brother's celebrated strength and speed drove Braph to create the device that gives him the power to perform magic, any magic. But it needs fuel-the blood of a healer... Healer's Touch is a fantasy novel flavored with a wild west setting, steampunk-like technology, enough romance to draw you in, horror to keep you hooked, and just enough sex to keep things spicy. "There isn't a dull moment in the story, with the action starting from the first page." -- Jo Toon, SFFANZ:http://www.sffanz.org.nz/reviews/reviewdocs/healers_touch.shtml Originally published in 2013 by Kristell Ink, now being self-published by the Author (as of 2021)

Ember Ryvergrave is tired and alone. Her mother is dead, her twin sister doesn't need her, and her best friend is in love with another. She feels as though she has no purpose anymore. She's a trained assassin. A killer. Surely she shouldn't be feeling so dejected from the people around her, yet those feelings linger deep inside her stomach. Along with the secret magic that resides in Ember's bones. The magic that would cost her her life if anyone knew about it. She's prepared to live a life of solitude and coldness until a strange boy with mint eyes and golden hair sees her and her magic. Ember's world flips upside down. He comes with news. Ember's fellow assassin has been taken. She has been tasked with retrieving the assassin and bringing them home. However, Ember has to cross through her country and go into the capital. Where the King resides. The man who wishes her dead. Though, she doesn't journey alone. The mint-eyed boy insists on coming. Now she must watch out for him . . . and herself. Trouble stirs and old demons come back to haunt Ember. Especially two men who are on the hunt for her. Ember's past is coming back to life and it's worse than anything she has ever imagined. Will she be able to save her fellow assassin? Or will she perish before she even reaches the capital?
