PURSUIT | TWINS OF AMPHITRITE-1
When you are the daughter of Amphitrite, left at the doorstep of a High Priest, you learn to expect great things from yourself. But power comes at a price, and the price could be becoming a pawn in the hands of immortal beings. Which is never a good idea. Annis has lived sixteen years of her life, trying to become the fearsome warrior every mermaid claims she is destined to be. With each passing year, her powers have failed. But then the Summon arrives. For centuries, the merfolk have worshipped Poseidon, offering sacrifices in exchange for tsunamis that devastate the human world they so despise. But it has been seven years, and the ocean has been unnervingly calm. The tsunamis are lost; their lord has gone silent. Summoned by the powerful and charismatic Vitus, ruler of Feridia, Annis finds herself amidst a crew of royalty that all seemingly hate each other. Their goal is clear: Find Poseidon and demand the long overdue storm. But with monsters, a fallen goddess and a potent romance waiting in the alluring king that evades her, what price must a mermaid pay for her share of glory?Complete
Atlantis Academy: The First Element
Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it.

Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?Complete
The Sunken City
A merman living in a half-sunken Venice must decide between revealing himself to the oppressive humans to pursue the man he wants or repressing his desires to save everyone that matters to him, except himself, in The Sunken City. There isn't even a word for what Caydo is. At seventeen, he only knows that he is different. If Caydo manages to restore the magic that allowed his kind to breathe underwater, they could live free of the humans, but he would be trapped with the merpeople, who will never accept his sexuality. Attracted to a devious human from the surface, Caydo must navigate a new world of card games and vices, which could bring more trouble, instead of the romance and the refuge he craves. At fifteen, Caydo's younger sister, Sarzana, must choose either to stay a mermaid or to become a human, as it is illegal to bend after she turns sixteen. Unbeknownst to her family and friends, she has already chosen a human life designing buildings, which goes against the merpeople's goddess. The surface might not be welcoming to a mermaid, but the humans have the answer to what happened to her father in the attacks ten years ago. Told from multiple perspectives, the world of the merpeople and the ruins of Venice come to life in this engaging story of fearlessness and hope in the face of adversity. NEW CHAPTERS RELEASING EACH FRIDAY! THE COMPLETE BOOK WILL BE AVAILABLE ON NOVEMBER 19TH, 2021! Don't forget! You're magical! Mature Rating due to violence and sexual content.Complete
