Hundreds of years ago, creatures that can only be dreamed up walked this world freely, some spread their wings and took to the sky, leaving power in their wake. While others walked the land, and with every touch, they could turn spring into summer. Peace crossed the world, but it could never stay like that, not for long, it was only time until there was nothing left.
These are the stories written by others,by great authors. The stories told throughout the generations. Layla Myers was guilty once, wishing these mythical creatures maybe did live in this world, those same stories influencing her. But at last, she realized these stories were only fragments of others' imagination, still powerful nonetheless.
That was until one night, before the sun would even show it's morning rays, in her small house along the forest's edge. She never knew what her eyes had come upon, not until, it was breathing down her neck.

The Wizards' War The Chronicles of the Midlands Book Two
The wizards believe that the Wizard's Misery is no more and Aryganazhan has married Maledictor and now the wizards are at war. Strange doorways have begun opening through out the Midlands and bizarre creatures are emerging forever changing the kingdom. Can Celine close the doorways and stop the creatures from entering? Can she neutralize the wizards before any more damage is done? Travel through out the kingdom with Celine and her allies as they try to stop the war while a new enemy arises, threatening to enslave all of humanity that dwells within the Midlands. Sneak peak: Suddenly a very small, strange creature that looked like a miniature woman with wings darted in front of Celine's face, then flew over to Brandon and followed along beside him for a moment before speeding back into the Royal Pine Forest as he reined in his horse. "What in the Midlands was that?" Brandon asked in shock. "I don't know," Celine answered concerned. "Something very strange is going on. I feel like I need to go into the woods! There's something I need to do in the woods!" she said as she rode over to the side of the road and dismounted, running into the Royal Pine Forest as Brandon called after her to wait. He quickly dismounted and swiftly lead his horse over to Celine's, taking its reins and tying both horses to a tree before going after her. "Celine! Wait!" he called after her as he realized that he could hear a very low humming noise coming from within the woods. "Maybe she's following the noise," he thought as he began to follow it to find where it was coming from and hopefully locate Celine. He pushed through the underbrush as the sound became louder and then he saw Celine standing in front of a whirling, shimmering vortex which was floating about four feet above the forest floor. There was a myriad of different types of strange looking creatures coming out of it and Brandon stood there in disbelief at what he was seeing.Complete
Whispers of the Heartwood...
"My ideal type... Tall, dark hair, piercing blue eyes... Intelligent, confident, and a hint of mystery... Can make me laugh, even on my worst days... Loves adventure, tries new things, and isn't afraid to take risks..." As she wrote, the room seemed to grow quieter, as if the universe was holding its breath. Emily felt a shiver run down her spine. What was she getting herself into? Just as she finished writing, a sudden gust of wind blew through the room, extinguishing the lights. Emily gasped, her heart racing. What was happening? And then, a low, smooth voice spoke out of the darkness: "Hey, darling... why are you up so late?"Complete
The Veil Between
There are worlds that live beside our own. Not above in the stars, not buried beneath the earth, but folded against reality like pages pressed together. Most people never notice. They live their lives with eyes half-shut, content with what they're given, never reaching for what lies just beyond. But some of us are born restless. Some of us hear echoes where others hear silence. Some of us feel the pull of something we can't name. Kaelen was one of those people. She thought her hunger for more was only daydreams. She thought the stories in her books were only fiction. She thought her life was destined to be small, invisible, ordinary. She was wrong. Because when the veil between worlds trembles, it does not choose kings or warriors to step through. It chooses the ones who ache for belonging. The ones who have nothing left to lose. And Kaelen had been waiting her whole life.
The Hollow Tree
(The Woven Curse Series) "You say 'simple' like we don't have a history of things going very much not simple," she said, waving towards the forest. She wasn't wrong. But still. I stepped in front of her and held her gaze. "Issy. We're already here. We can't pretend we didn't see it." She glared at me. I glared back. Two idiots. One brain cell. Shared custody. "What if they're evil?" she asked. "Then we leave." "What if they're magical?" "Then we still leave." "What if they're hot?" I raised a brow. She paused. Then she sighed. "Okay, fair point. We should at least look." ༻❁༺ A story about two best friends who somehow end up in a kingdom straight out of their favourite fantasy books. Picture rolling fields of emerald grass, crystal lakes with shimmering springs, and the most breathtaking night sky you've ever seen. There's just one catch - the kingdom is cursed, and those two girls are the only ones who can break it. Oh, and one more thing: they've never been here before, have absolutely no magic, and seem to be attracting all the wrong kinds of attention... particularly from a cold-hearted king and an evil enforcer. Sounds fun, right?
Cursed: The Legend of Sleeping Beauty
Long ago, the Kingdom of Alagil was cursed by a Dragon for their greed and lust for power, the Royal Family having seized the entirety of Gold Thread she made for the public, keeping it for themselves. The Dragon gave the Royals sixteen years to better themselves and teach their heir to the thone to be an honest, caring individual. If the Princess was coronated with a selfish heart everyone in the castle who had done wrong to the people would die. The top three Witches of the court decided on a plan to save the Princess and everyone else included in the curse, taking the spindle it is bound to and altering the curse so that, if it struck, they would all fall into an eternal slumber. Fifteen years later, Briar Rose is shocked to learn that the biggest threat to her daily life isn't Dragons swooping down from the sky to eat her or dying from boredom out in the middle of the woods. It's a curse that can lead to her whole countries decimation. Having been born with the Gift for Magic, she was trained to be a Curse Breaker by proclamation of High King Henric himself and now knows that her Godmothers have been preparing her to fight the Curse the Dragon bestowed at that ill-fasted Ball all those years ago. With one year to get the most practical experience possible in Curse Breaking, Briar Rose heads out with the map her Godmothers gave her, tracking down places of extreme curses while they head back to Skyfort, the castle where the cursed spindle resides, to protect it from those who would inadvertently worsen the curse they struggled to amend. Will she succeed at breaking the Curse and make her life her own or is the magic of Dragons to much for a Mortal to hope to overcome?Complete
