Religion rules Constantine's world...and she has been condemned as the Spawn of the Devil. She is a Champion, a human being blessed with superhuman abilities by the deities of her world. However, her patron happens to be the Lord of War and Strategy - and women were never supposed to be Champions of War.
In order to survive in a world that would rip her apart, she disguises as a boy, training to fulfil her supposed destiny. But fate has other things in store for her. An ancient evil is rising - and only Constantine may have the power needed to fight it.
Along with a brash warrior and a too-perceptive scholar, Constantine begins to unravel secrets of a prophecy foretelling the end of the world. Now, she must learn how to fight evil with nothing but a magical knife as well as powers she knows next-to-nothing of.
The real problem though? She may have been the one to call the great evil in the first place.

Book 1 of 2 Aislinn Jones has had a unique problem for as long as she can remember: her dreams. They are vivid and haunting, and plague her whenever she tries to rest. Her father's solution was to train her to a point of exhaustion where she was passing out instead of sleeping. It wasn't until her thirteenth birthday that one of her nightmares truly became a reality for her. After losing her home and her parents, she finds salvation in the gentle-hearted she-wolf named Rei, who adopts her and raises her alongside her son Ryan. Unfortunately, her nightmares don't end there. On her sixteenth birthday, when she expects to meet her other half-her wolf, she is horrified when her shift doesn't take place. Determined to find answers, the small family decide to make their way to the Royal Pack to investigate. King Darius was raised with the constant reminder that his mate would be his doom. It was because of this that the unmated King issued a Royal Decree banning unmated women from entering the Royal Pack. Faced with this, the trio must find another way in to get their answers. Through their scheming to enter the Royal Pack, they unwittingly begin untangling a dangerous web of deceit and betrayal. Together with some unexpected allies, the three must race to unmask the mole within the Royal Pack, and hope the King believes them.Terminé
I Can See Their Death
In the depths of her childhood, at the tender age of 7, an unsettling gift awakened within her - the power to glimpse the impending demise of others. Ghosts and ethereal apparitions became her companions, while the looming specter of death itself held an unyielding presence in her life.

Hauntingly, she foresaw her own mother's fate, the grim prophecy manifesting just days before its fulfillment. A chilling truth gripped Anleane's reality: those she glimpsed in her visions were bound to the realm beyond. There was no escape from the dance of death that she alone witnessed. And then, the inexplicable occurred - her own figure materialized within the confines of her ominous predictions. Confronted with the realization of her impending doom, Anleane's fight for survival intensified, a desperate attempt to defy the very destiny she once foretold. Amidst the relentless shadows of her cursed ability, Anleane grapples with a question that consumes her every thought: Can she, against all odds, outwit the clutches of the inescapable, or will she become yet another victim to the merciless hands of fate?Terminé

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.

Heart of the Comet
Think ACOTAR with sharper teeth. Game of Thrones with more heart. The world wanted a warrior. The stars sent her instead. Heart Loave was never meant to be part of the stories. Not the girl with flour under her nails and numbers to balance. But the sky tore open, a stranger came cloaked in shadow, and the world decided she was prophecy incarnate. Now the kingdoms whisper of the Emissary's return. Of rot in the woods and stars that choose without mercy. Heart is no warrior, no chosen saint. Just a girl caught in the gravity of something ancient and cruel. But if the world insists on blood, maybe she'll bleed it dry.
