Captain A. Rhodes skills include: drinking, pissing people off, smuggling, drinking, and stealing mythological artefacts from places that shouldn't really exist. Oh did I mention drinking? They are often seen battling deadly creatures with a bottle in hand, making deals with the rich, and drinking tea with the devil once a month.
But all that seems like a cake walk compared to dealing with a new unwanted member of the crew; Helena Langdon. I mean, Lady Helena Langdon, the rich daughter of an old friend who is too stubborn to listen to reason and that resurrecting the dead is a god awful idea. Throw into the mix an immortal hellbent on suicide and revenge, plus a man who is determined to bring someone a little more powerful back from the land of the dead, the enigmatic Captain is going to need a lot of whiskey to sort this shit out.

Tempted By Darkness
Dark Queen Athena and Light King Alec have always been enemies threading carefully on a silent truce. They have always been each other's polar opposites. He is good, kind hearted, caring and everything she is not. While she.. Well, she is pretty much the definition of bad. She is the monster Alec's people check under the bed for before going to sleep. When the almighty Light King faces trouble and needs the Dark Queen's help, he will have to learn to trust the bad guy- well, in this case, the bad gal. She is an enigma. Athena is everything that he thought she wouldn't be but also everything that he thought she would be. And he.. He has never been so intrigued.

AISLIN | I
❝You are just a WOMAN. You can't fight in this war, you're weak. It will chew you up and spit you out, you can't keep up with us.❞ The commander scoffed with a low chuckle. A couple of men behind him chuckled as well. Evander's gaze burned into the side of my head, awaiting my reply like everyone else. ❝If I can't fight, then why did the Queen herself ask me to take over your job for the time being?❞ I asked, pulling my dagger out from its sheath, taping on Commander Leland's breastplate with the tip, ❝Careful who you call weak Commander because you clearly don't know who I am.❞ He crossed his arms defensively, ❝Oh yeah? And who are you?❞ I leaned forward lightly, ❝The name's Aislin.❞ ________________ Her name was well-known throughout the kingdoms. Some believed she was just an urban legend, while others thought she was real but some believed she didn't exist at all. She was labeled "the infamous warrior" because she was known for destroying kingdoms with her bare hands. She was a woman, but she set a strong example for tens of thousands of men. She disappeared after a horrific accident. Years had passed, and she had led a life free of violence. After all those years, she was itching to return to the battlefield. Her wish was granted when Queen Aria of Kavan herself approached her and informed her of the events unfolding in her kingdom, requesting her assistance. A sexist Commander, a caring queen, a slacker army, new friendships, and an intriguing yet hothead prince are among the challenges she faces. She's got a lot to handle. --- REVIEWS (more inside) "If you put equal portions of action, adventure, comedy, mystery, romance & feminism in a ninja blender and set it to high power, YOU 👏 GET👏 AISLIN👏. Plus a splash of feminism and diversity makes everything instantly better.

Capsized By You
Marissa is one of three siblings of the head family of New Hope. Everything is as perfect as it could be in a world where mystical beings and humans are on the verge of another war. Until her father arranges a marriage to an older shape-shifting sea dragon pirate, all of her plans, from her career to her personal life, are now dead in the water. Levi is a world-famous pirate, mainly for how his family came into power. He wants to establish lasting peace between all of the clans, even at the cost of his freedom. It's easier said than done when his family pressures him to keep to tradition, and infighting may destroy the treaty before it can even begin. When they embark on this relationship, will they see past their differences and save the country from another war? Could they fall in love along the way, or will they sacrifice their hearts and freedom for the sake of peace? *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "I'm told love doesn't have a place in business or duty," Marissa said with a smile. "Even at my age, I find that a hard pill to swallow," Rhys said, pouring himself another glass. "I would imagine at your age, there's a lot of things hard to do," Marissa giggled. "What experience do you have with older men," Rhys asked, laughing. He leaned back into the couch, stretching his arms along the back. His seated stance widened. Marissa sat back as well and angled her body towards him. "None, just a guess from what I hear," Marissa said, finishing her drink. "Well, on behalf of all old men, I take offense. Especially since you've never been with one. We're quite capable, more so than the younger ones," Rhys said, filling her glass. "That's something I would need to experience for myself then," Marissa said. "It's possible," Rhys said. "Was that an offer," Marissa asked. "It's whatever you want it to be," Rhys said. *~*~*~*~* COMPLETEDComplete
Siren's Heart
*Frequent updates* {This book is complete and we will be updating it every few days.} All her life Truly Davelvon has been kept a secret from the rest of Atlantis, a nation founded by pirates five hundred years ago. She's a Davelvon, descended from one of the Great Fleet's four leaders, but the women of her family are considered cursed and she's no exception. After Orison Davelvon betrayed the rest of his fleet and made a deal with the Siren queen to marry her daughter, a girl has been born to his line every hundred years. Four girls have been born before her. Four have died young, each blamed for the death of another in two of the four original family's deaths. Truly is the fifth, the crowning pearl, will she escape her fate or finally claim the last untouched line? Born with a ship's deck beneath his feet and a cutlass in hand, High Captain Kade Petrovick can steal a girl's heart just as easily as he could seize a ship. Too bad for Atlantis he's more into disproving their myths and curses than he is being 'The Brovern incarnate'. Descended from Drake Broven, the brazen pirate who not only stole the Kraken's Heart from Davy Jones but the man's wife as well. Like the rest of the Brovern line, Kade is cursed with wanderlust and the desire for riches. A thirst for adventure courses through his veins and tends to leave him often not onshore or in a lasses bed for long. Girls might love him, but none will ever claim his heart, save the sea, thanks to the curse Davy Jones placed upon his ancestor. It'll take a girl more alluring than his mistress the sea to keep this Brovern in port and perhaps finally break his family's curse.Complete

"You're atheist," I remind him. "You don't believe in god." "I believe in you," He murmurs, letting the cigarette hang from his lips. "I believe in whatever you believe." He says, letting the confession roll off his tongue as if it were that simple. As if god, the devil, heaven, hell-as if none of it really had meaning to him. "That's not how it works," I mutter as we walk down a few more alleyways-the city of Manhattan coated in a light blanket of snow. Henry Vitiello had never had anything to pray for, that is, until he met me-the only thing that had ever opened his mind up to the possibility of religion "Isn't it?" He argues, taking the cigarette by his middle and pointer finger before blowing the smoke out. "I'II dip my hands in holy water if it means I could touch you."

VELOCITY
She steps past me, hips swaying deliberately, pulling me in like a predator. Her helmet is fixed forward but her voice stalks me like a shadow no amount of light can take away. Slowly, deliberately, she slides her slender gloved hand down the cool metal tab of her fireproof suit. Her fingers curl around the zipper by her throat. With a tug, it dips lower over her chest. The neckline plunges into shadow, nothing hiding her recklessness. I lean in and press my fingers to the collar of her suit, and slowly drag them to the dip underneath her belly button where the zipper ends. She tenses suddenly, her breath catching. "You wanna flirt, fine," I say. "Beauty might buy you an audience, but it won't buy you speed." I slowly drag the zipper back up. "Maybe I want someone to call it," She says silkily. I bridge the ever-closing gap between us, my voice barely a thread. "Then stop hiding behind helmets, Angel." -------------------------------------------- Even through the thick smoke, the helmet, and the roar of the engines, he can't take his eyes off her. Not 𝙀𝙡𝙤𝙞𝙨𝙚, the composed girl with the gentle eyes and kind smile. 𝙑𝙚𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙞𝙩𝙮. The ghost who races like a warning, the myth with steel in her veins. The one who's been haunting the streets and humiliating his crew, one win at a time. And he's obsessed.

Arden
Highest Rank - #449 in Paranormal ARDEN SERIES: BOOK 1 Paranormal Romance "Arden, you're an amazing girl," He started off quietly. "You might not be able to see it, but you're capable of doing incredible things. If it's anyone that can get us through this...it's you." Zane said slowly. **** Arden is a disparate. Meaning she's different in kind; definitely not like other people. In a world where people, gods, goddesses, and creatures of Greek Mythology fit into modern society, Arden is one of those people. Her mother is Athena, goddess of wisdom and creative arts. Just like her mother, Arden is bright, clever, and extraordinary. Like Arden, All disparates are offsprings from a Greek mythical being and a human; they're demi-gods. They possess certain powers that are unique to their being. When Arden and her best friend Ace -the son of Apollo- transfer schools, they quickly make some new friends, and in time they find out their new friends are disparates too. In fact, there are a few attending the school. When a group of not-so-good disparates put a dangerous plan in action, it's up to her and her friends to stop them to save what they believe in. It's all up to them, the son of Ares, the daughter of Nike, the son of Apollo, the daughter of Artemis, and the son of the one and only powerful god, Zeus. Follow Arden and her friends on their journey of love, hate, friendship, and betrayal to save the world and Mt. Olympus. •Not a Percy Jackson Fanfic•Complete
