Torris Corozad is perhaps the most talented weapons expert and swordsmith that her country has ever seen. She is also the leader of a band of runaways and vagabonds that hides out in an abandoned monastery on the border between two rival countries.
When the Warrior-King of the neighboring land of Ebellum is assassinated, the arrow that impaled his brain like a suckled pig on a spitroast is identified to have been masterfully crafted by Torris. Suspicious eyes turn westward. An inquirer from the King's court is sent to question her, but Kellen Tarr, a renowned brute and killer, is determined to get to her first.
With no surviving heir, the Warchief has left behind no legacy, and virtually limitless power in the form of the throne is up for grabs. Thieves, pirates, and sorcerers all swarm to Ebellum's capital city of Duinthral to demonstrate their wealth and power, and make bids for the crown. The only way Kellen believes he has a claim to it is by the ultimate display of power: destroying the monster known only as "the Shapeless" that has been plagueing their world for centuries. However, in order to defeat it, he will need Torris's help. Torris, on the other hand, has a completely separate agenda- one she hopes to accomplish before Kellen catches on and does everything in his power to stop her.
Written from dual perspectives, Interregnum is the exciting first installment of the prospective Ebellum Trilogy.

The Return of the Gods ⚔️ (Children of the Sun Book 1)
[2023 Wattys Shortlist, 2023 Amby Awards winner, Featured 5 times in Wattpad Picks lists] Kaleth has worked as an agent of Luxarx for years. What the average person might see as an exciting, dangerous job has become the routine, and the only thing that fazes Kaleth now is that his habit of wearing suits everywhere is somehow still a thing his teammates tease him over. But that's all about to change. An encounter with one unexpectedly peaceful (and cute) terrorist soldier brings everything he thought he knew into question. If not all Umbra are dangerous criminals, what else does Luxarx get wrong? As he investigates, Kaleth stumbles onto a conspiracy that doesn't just concern the agency, but also his government, and the whole world. There are monsters hiding in plain sight, secretly in charge of everything since the very beginning - the long-forgotten dragon-gods with supernatural abilities.

The Source (Creasan #1)
In a world where dragons rule the sky and ogres walk the earth, a young woman leads a rebellion against the corrupt king in pursuit of answers and revenge. Eighteen-year-old Thea Wyvern has hated King Favian Lance of Creasan her entire life. It isn't a hard emotion to have when she has grown up witnessing murder in the streets and starvation in her family and friends. Raised in the rebellion known as The Source, Thea has been trained and conditioned to handle herself in battles of both violence and intellect. After the king executed someone very close to her, Thea has been working towards the king's demise as The Source's new leader. When an assassination attempt goes horribly wrong, Thea becomes the king's prisoner and is given a firsthand look at the people she has loathed her entire life. She takes note of the king's insecurity, the handsome Prince Fendrel Lance's carefully restrained demeanor, the abused look of Queen Ana, and the delicate balance of court life. Armed with this knowledge, she manages to escape the palace with a new plan to help her fellow citizens. If she can find Aestus, the dragon responsible for the founding of the kingdom, she might finally be able to overthrow the horrible king. It is a perilous and risky mission, but her fellow rebels agree to the plan. Joined by the prince whose motivations may only appear to be genuine, they head for The Forbidden Mountain, where Aestus is said to live. The rebels will have to fight against the mythical creatures of the forest, the weather, and their own prejudices. Meanwhile, the king and queen are caught in their own web of danger as Ana seeks safety away from her husband and the Lance family curse sends Favian spiraling into madness. The fate of the royal family, the people of Creasan, and The Source all rest on Thea's last-ditch plan, but her own trauma might very well be the largest threat to the mission.Complete

"Assassin's Creed: Valhalla: Blood and Oaths"
In this epic reimagining of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Eivor Varinsdottir, the fierce Raven Clan shieldmaiden, finds herself entangled in a forbidden romance with Randvi, the wife of her sworn brother, Sigurd Styrbjornsson. What begins as a hidden passion ignites into a love so powerful that it threatens to reshape the future of Ravensthorpe and all of England. Bound by desire, duty, and destiny, Eivor and Randvi defy tradition and claim each other-not as lovers in the shadows, but as wives in the eyes of the gods and their people. Their union, however, sparks a rift that tears through the Viking world, drawing them into a brutal conflict with Sigurd and the hidden hands of the Order of the Ancients, who seek to manipulate their war for their own gain. Amidst savage battles, political intrigue, and the looming specter of war, the two women must navigate the treacherous landscape of alliances and betrayals. As they lead Ravensthorpe into its most perilous era, they uncover a conspiracy stretching across the Saxon lands-one that threatens not just their home, but the very future of England itself. But even as blades clash and oaths are broken, Eivor and Randvi's love remains unshaken, burning like a beacon in the darkness. Together, they forge a new path-one not dictated by fate, but by their own hands. A story of war and devotion, vengeance and redemption, Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Blood and Oaths is a saga where love is both a weapon and a shield, and where two Viking women defy gods and kings to carve out their own legend.Complete
The Prophecy of Water | TheWattys2018 Shortlister ✔️
[Wattys2018 Shortlist] [Bootcamp Mentorship Mentee 2020] [Insidious Awards - 1st place/Action/Adventure] "Squinty, I... Help me! Please! You have to help me!" Squinty huffed at him as the horse might snort at an annoying fly it couldn't get rid of. "A...a... an apple," he stammered. "I just... stole an apple!" ---- When water is controlled by those in power, even a mere apple can be a catalyst. For Squinty, it was the start of everything. Finding Grizzly. Losing Roko. Becoming a Vigil. Discovering she had the power to become invisible. For Nalina, the threat of a new Water War was even closer to home; her beloved brother was the one initiating it. To Drian, water formed the core of his belief system, defined who was - and was not - worthy, and justified the treatment of the underground-dwelling Wellers. An orphan girl, determined to do what was right. A princess, petitioning for peace. An abbot, torn between his religion, and his experience. Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld.

The Art of Courts and Lies (Book 1 in The Gifted Trilogy)
Ice flooded my veins as the realization of who he was hit me. It must have been evident on my face because the man in front of me let out a dark laugh. "Oh dear, you didn't realize you were talking to a royal, did you darling?" he crooned. Not just any royal. Kesserian Cinis. The recently coronated king and ruler over the Ember Court. I forgot how to breathe, my mind whirring as it tried to figure out how I could have been so stupid as to let this happen. *************************************************** Wren Heatherfield is on the run. Having turned 18, she is now in danger of becoming selected for the Garner, a deadly game in which the six kings who rule over her continent take eighteen non-magical girls and make them fight for their lives. But as she tries to avoid the game by running away with her best friend and her sister, she consequently finds herself doomed to be a competitor in the 246th Garner. But the Garner isn't the only thing capable of killing her. In a castle surrounded by kings with dark powers and girls fighting for their lives, she may find that the politics of royalty can be just as deadly as their games. No one can be trusted in a palace full of monsters and, if Wren has any hopes of survival, she may have to become one herself.Complete
