What do you think princesses in the 1600s did all day?
• Wear puffy dresses shaped like a pastry?
• Obsess over hair and makeup?
• Attend balls and dance the night away?
• Meet their Prince charming?
• Say ridiculous statements to create controversies? (Idea courtesy: "Let them eat CAKE!")
• Go for tea parties and gossip with the other ladies at court?
• Enjoy lavish cuisines?
You're not wrong. But that's not what 'all' princesses do. Just 'most' of them.
Meet Lilith. An exception to the above assumptions. She's fierce. She's witty. She's bold. The princess of Valoria.
She felt as if the stars shone only for her, the Sun rose only for her, the flowers bloomed only for her and every day was meant just for her.
But one day, she overheard a plan.
She had to stop it from happening. Of course, nothing was impossible for Lilith. But with the limited time and hurdles along the way, will she change her fate in time? Or will her destiny overpower her will?
What readers say:
"A fox in the snow is an exquisitely written adventure novel. The characters and plots are so finely developed that it transports you to the 1600s where sorcery and witchcraft were frowned upon. I personally found Lilith to be a character to look up to. Dylan and Lilith's immaculate romance is the icing on the cake. The language used by the author is fun. The plot hooks us to the story. The author has done a great job on her debut novel and I love it!"
"A fox in the snow is an exciting tale of a young princess named Lilith who faces an unprecedented turn of events. Beautifully set in a historical premise, the story has a lion's share of twists and turns. I instantly fell in love with the engaging plot amplified by the author's descriptive style of writing. How Lilith's life changed drastically, the revelations and hurdles that follow all prove to be a nail biter. It is certainly worth reading!"

Whisper of the Long Lost Princess (Academy of Secrets)
For centuries, the hidden kingdoms have whispered the same forbidden tale a prophecy buried in moonlight and starfire. They speak of a child born beneath a blood moon and a sky of falling stars, a girl whose breath holds the hush of the wind, whose heart echoes the voice of the earth, whose touch summons flame and frost and thunder. A princess, stolen before the first dawn could crown her hidden among mortals, her name erased, her power sealed behind iron gates and old secrets. They called her lost. They prayed she would never be found. For if she woke, the eight sleeping elements would rise again light, shadow, fire, water, earth, wind, lightning, and the spirit that binds them all. And kingdoms built on lies would fall to their knees before the child they tried to forget. But secrets are never truly buried. And fate never forgets its promises. In a quiet village on the edge of the old forest, she bakes bread in the warmth of a small bakery, her memories hidden behind a smile and the hush of rising dough. She answers to Lunaria a name she doesn't remember choosing and dreams of gates she cannot open. But the wind knows her name. The earth hums beneath her feet. Fire flickers when she passes. The storm watches. And the Academy that sealed her power watches too, its Council whispering that the lost star has begun to stir. When the iron gates crack open, secrets slip through a young elemental prince whose touch tastes of storms, shadows that whisper old truths, and a sister cloaked in starlight waiting to bring her home. In the hidden halls of the Academy of Secrets, where loyalty is as fragile as glass and power is more dangerous than lies, Lunaria must remember who she is before the kingdoms rise or burn in her name. Her story begins where all lost things do in the hush of winter, under a sky heavy with falling stars. And when she wakes, the world will never be the same.Kumpleto
Wicked Winter Book. 1
{Completed} Highest Ranking: # 1 in Fantasy (01/28/17) Book. 1 My blood boiled at the thought of one of them in our streets, hidden in plain sight, perhaps even by one of the kids from the orphanages. Would it murder innocent human children? You bet. Would it even think twice about gutting a starving child? Never. What could do this, you're probably asking. But it boils down to one single word. One word that made anger I hadn't known I possessed, roar to life like a pissed off lion. One word that sent a cold chill spider-walking down my spine. Faeries. ------------ Eve Scotts's world is divided by magic - The Order of the Seven who rules over her kingdom with a steel fist and the murderous faeries's she'll be forced to fight when she turns eighteen. Eve is a dueler, a human that dabbles in the elements to fight in underground scuffles for some extra coin to feed her fellow orphans back home. But she has a secret weapon: She can wield ice magic - a magic that is only reserved for the High Witches at court. But she makes a mistake. She exposes herself. Rumors are spreading of a small orphan girl who can wield the power of ice, and it isn't long until the Order sends one of their own to snatch up the bounty. In exchange for the secrecy of her special gift, Eve agrees to participate in the Witches Academy, where humans are taught to wield the power of the elements and become powerful witch soldiers for the Order's disposal. As Eve is drawn further into the Witch world, she risks everything to learn more about her power and her lineage. With her frozen heart melting for the Count of Night, Sebastian O'Neill, Eve is thrown into a cyclone of love, betrayal, and family drama she hadn't even known an orphan could inherit. Soon, Eve must decide: Is love, or survival more important? Word Count: 102,000.Kumpleto

A COURT OF SHIFTERS AND SECRETS
Finding out that your parents, the people that raised you your whole life, weren't your actual parents was hard. Being told at the ripe ol' age of eighteen that you're the last living member from an Ancient Shifter line, the one responsible for creating the First Shifters, was inconceivable. Especially when a group of assassins were on their way to exterminate me simply for just existing. Kidnapped from my bed by three extremely stunning and grumpy Alphas, and forced to attend a special Shifter University located in the middle of nowhere, I have to navigate an unfamiliar and unknown secreted world while simultaneously trying avoiding those who want to use my lineage to enact an age-old curse. Join Nova Nyx as she's dragged into a world full of Shifters, Secrets, and Startling Surprises. ~~~ "Mates?" I repeated owlishly, blinking rapidly at the one worded bomb they just dropped on me "What are Mates?" Instead of answering my question, they just stared back at me in silence, arms crossed over their broad chests. I ignored their silence, choosing to focus on second part of their sentence. "And you're telling me I have three of them?" I gawked "How many are you supposed to get? I can barely handle myself and my life at this point and you want me to worry about three other people?" Of course the most annoying man I've ever met smirked at my bafflement. "I don't think it'll be such a hardship for you" he said, arrogance lacing his tone "After all, I hear these three Mates of yours are very self-sufficient." "Don't forget extremely gorgeous" his Buffon of a friend chimed in, winking at me "That's a plus for you Princess." "One," the third one growled out at me, finally speaking up and adding subsistence to the conversation, startling the banter from the other two "You're only supposed to be blessed with one Mate in your entire lifetime."Kumpleto
Alpha Wolf - Mate Mine
(+18) COMPLETED ✔ {Highest Ranks & Awards: #1 in Werewolf, #3 in Alpha, #3 in Mate, #16 in Romance, 19/11/2020} ☆☆☆☆ Mirko. Just his name is enough to invoke fear. Young in age yet ancient in his fury, with burning eyes and a bloody history of ice & fangs. His beast-more prehistoric predator than a mere Alpha-rules the shadows as ruthlessly as he rules his pack, the infamous Black Devils. Whispers speak of a curse. Wolves born without mates, destined to lose themselves to the feral madness of their inner beasts. But then came her. ☆☆☆☆ Elena paused, her gaze sweeping over him. His nostrils flared, thick veins bulged along his neck and face, and his eyes were pitch black-voids of pure darkness. Elongated, inhuman ears twitched as sharp fangs pierced his lips. Any sane person would have run for their life. But to Elena, he had never looked more beautiful. ☆☆☆☆ After this book, you'll find yourself longing for that simple, powerful word-the one we all secretly yearn to hear once in a lifetime: MATE ☆☆☆☆ Some reviews from my awesome readers: annaglowka2005: "MASTERPIECE!!!!

Calista's tormented past and Nyx's vengeance. Escaping from their dark past, Nyx and her brother, Nox, became Rogues in search of answers and freedom. Violence and years of trauma hardened them, while secrets and promises bonded them. What will happen when they cross paths with the pack known for destroying Rogues and conquering the weak? Will the mate bond twist their plans or lead them further down the path of darkness? Is there any salvation for the damned? Only the Moon Goddess knows... - "What is your name? Why is your wolf black?" "It's...not...important." Three more. My head began to lull forward as my neck could no longer hold the weight. He walked around with thundering footsteps and grabbed my head by my wet curls. He pulled my head back until he could see my face, taunting me with a dark smile and eyes full of delight. "Why don't you carry a scent? Who are you?" I gave him a bloody smile as my eyes started to close, darkness singing its siren song beneath the ringing in my ears. "I thought...you'd...never ask," I panted out weakly as I let Enyo penetrate the room with our scent. "I'm...your...mate," I added before passing out, welcoming the darkness like an old, missed friend. - Most impressive ranking: #1 in werewolf, #4 in Lycan, #1 in Slow, #4 in Gory Notes from the Author: If you are looking for a story that leans more on slow-burning, plot-building themes with multiple moving forces that are not solely centered around the straightforward mate bond romance, then start reading! **Strong language and vivid imagery are scattered throughout**Kumpleto

The King
"No." I stated. "They don't exist." His emerald eyes pierced into my soul, they seemed to be dissecting me. He had his arms wrapped around my waist, each passing second his grip was getting tighter and tighter. He started to lean in, closing the gap between us. His eyes never hesitating from my lips. He inched closer and closer until I could feel his minty breath now fanning out on my face. He licked his lips before looking into my own eyes again, and with a smirk he swooped his head down. I prepared for the kiss but it never came, he came in and swiped his head to the side. Rubbing his cheek with my own, the soft stubble scratching my skin and sending shockwaves down my spine as he moved to my ear. "You claim you don't believe in soulmates but, you so clearly feel the pull." #1 in love 12/5/2018 #1 in human 12/28/2018 #1 in comedy 1/17/2019 #1 in young adult 4/8/2019 #1 in cold 4/16/2019
Once Upon a Time: EDITING
What if Cinderella were a mechanic? What if Snow-White were ugly? What if Rapunzel ran away on her own and became a magician? What if The Little Mermaid were originally human? This book contains a collection of twisted fairytales. So twisted are they that they almost reverse the original telling. No more waiting for Prince Charming! No sir, these princesses take their fates into their sensible and capable hands. Enjoy! ~ Nylara Note: The plot ideas are mine but some of the fairytales are loosely based on ones I've read but have not been entirely satisfied by or just wanted to revisit. Mechanica is based on the book "Mechanica", Blanche on "Mirror Mirror" the movie, Rebbecca is mine, Sapphire is based on the Ingo Series by Helen Dunmore and Freya is loosely based on "The Woodcutter's Daughter" and "East of Sun, West of Moon". Hope you enjoy!!!
