Orphaned and raised by her grandmother, Myria Hawthorne spends all of her formative years working at The Morning Glory, her grandmother's tavern, teaching herself small amounts of magic from the mages that pass through Everhaven. However, a chance opportunity offers her the ability to learn magic like the noble elite and save the financially-struggling tavern. The only catch? Win the prince's heart by the end of the summer to become the future Queen of Avalion.
Five other ladies contend for the same prize, enduring grueling challenges to prove their value and securing their victory through other nefarious means. However, when Myria is suddenly thrust into this new world of glittering ballrooms, venomous smiles, and excessive wealth, she quickly learns not all is as it seems. Her mother had been a noble, pursuing the same path and winning the king's heart and hand over twenty-five years ago before mysteriously fleeing court the morning of her wedding.
As Myria learns more about her mother's history, she is confronted by her own decisions. Does she really want to marry the prince? Is learning magic worth the price of joining the ranks of the nobility? Or should she leave the court before encountering the same, mysterious evil that frightened her mother?
The dazzling court of Avalion promises secrets, glory, and even riveting danger to those deemed worthy.

Chosen
Every year, nobility and royalty from near and far gather together to court and find matches for the Season. Rowan never thought she would find herself in the Season at all, being a lowly peasant from the countryside. But a chance encounter as a child might have set her on a path she never dreamed possible. Could this ridiculous notion of courting a bunch of rich spoiled brats actually bring her to her soul mate? Or just leave her heartbroken and worse off than before? "Was he just teasing me? Was this just some point to prove that he knew I was attracted to him even though I clearly hated him? My thoughts were so jumbled I couldn't work through them. Some very small voice in the back of my head was yelling at me and asking what the hell I was doing. But it continued to get smaller and smaller every time his fingers and lips grazed my skin. All I knew now was how amazing his skin felt on mine. It was clear where he was going. He was going to kiss me. And I wanted him to." [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]Lengkap
The Cursed Prince
In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?Lengkap

In a palace of whispers, hidden agendas, and family intrigues, every glance, every touch, and every unspoken word becomes a battlefield of desire and restraint.

Or will the shadows of their pasts keep them apart forever? A story of slow-burning romance, royal intrigue, hidden identities, and love that fights its way through every obstacle.

The killer princess and a snob
In the glittering heart of the Virellan Empire, politics is bloodsport and power is seduction. Princess Liora Valen, heir to the throne and secretly the Empire's most lethal assassin, walks a knife's edge between duty and desire. Trained from childhood to eliminate threats to the crown, she has become a whisper in the dark-feared, revered, and utterly alone. But everything shifts when the charming and insufferable Lord Cassian Thornwall-a nobleman too clever for his own good and far too arrogant for hers-discovers her secret. Cassian, a known social snob with a scandalous wit and a past cloaked in mystery, should be her next target. Instead, he becomes her reluctant ally... and her most dangerous distraction. Thrown into a conspiracy that could shatter the Empire from within, Liora and Cassian must navigate palace intrigue, buried secrets, and forbidden passion. But while one is trained to kill and the other trained to charm, neither is prepared for what happens when masks fall-and hearts are exposed. In a world where crowns are forged in fire and loyalty is a weapon, can a killer princess and an arrogant noble survive each other long enough to save the realm?Lengkap
The Prince's Gamble
When Crown Prince Alaric of Eldoria is ordered to choose a bride to secure the line, the court arranges a spectacle of trials-tests of strength, statecraft, and worth-meant to end in a tidy alliance. What no one plans for is Prince Dorian of Caerthwyn, whose quiet courage, riverborn instincts, and inconvenient honesty turn duty into a dangerous question. As suitors circle and factions sharpen their smiles, a flood exposes rot in the city's ledgers, whispers harden into sabotage, and a coded threat rises on the tide. On the eve of vows, bells break the night and Eldoria burns. In the chaos that follows, Alaric, Dorian, and a warrior-consort candidate, Nyra Ashfall, must hold the line-one with law, one with water, one with steel-while grief and politics try to pull the kingdom apart. What begins as a prince's performance becomes a fight to redesign the future: succession rewritten in daylight, power made transparent, and love asked to be more than a secret. Allies become family, a city learns to cheer for truth over rumor, and a throne discovers it can be carried by two steady hands. The Prince's Gamble is a romantic fantasy of palace intrigue and public courage-a slow-burn, M/M royal romance with a true happily-ever-after, a fierce female ally who refuses to be anyone's obstacle, and a kingdom brave enough to choose the leaders who saved it. Duty starts the story. Love finishes it.Lengkap
