The Ancient World Order is a complex tale of feudal politics, religion, conspiracy and war.
It hasn't been more than fifteen years since the Empire almost succumbed in the War of Brothers. And yet again, the scourge of war spreads across the world. At the death of late Emperor Ulric, lord Wilfred Mandos, the hero who saved the Empire, gets summoned to the Capital of Avenheim, for his appointment to the office of Imperial Chancellor.
As Wilfred arrives at Avenheim, he discovers that his old enemies haven't forgiven him for their humiliation in the war. They have already made the first move against his family. Not used to Capital politics, Wilfred stands alone as he finds no help from those he once considered his friends. To ensure his house's survival, Wilfred has to outmanoeuvre both the fanatical Church of Magnus and the ambitious rival house Morg, the Empress family.
Meanwhile, across the great Oceanic, to the North, Sven the Clanless, strives to get revenge against the Black Mane tribe. As he does, he disturbs the fragile peace between his uncle, Chieftain Ivar the Bull and savage nomad tribe. And to the South, the mighty warrior tribe Darma, from the Grand Steppes, ravages through trade cities along the Oval Coast. It won't be long until they reach the desert of the Great Sands. Sash Tahej and his brother, Sahej, struggle to unite the clans to meet this threat.

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."Complete

The elven kingdom of Tírnéth, weakened by civil war, is unable to ward off the threat posed by the mortal men of Carransii. For the first time in recorded history, foreign feet scale the Aghadh Mountains and tread elven land in pursuit of the most coveted thing in the world: The magic of the Misty Bog. Lying to the north of Tírnéth and governed by the Seelie Queen, it is a domain even elves are forbidden from entering. Even so, Princess Eimhir and her younger sisters make the journey to its border at the behest of her father, King Lorcán, in a desperate bid to preserve his legacy as the enemy closes in from the south. He entrusts his daughters to the care of his enigmatic Warden of the North, who holds her lonely vigil in the Grey Tower of the Wall of Devin. But in these days of war, Eimhir refuses to be passive. She will not be a damsel in distress awaiting the cold kiss of her enemy's blade.

Protector of the Crown
COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. ****** Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.Complete
Storm Dragons
In an ancient warring land, the champions of the Dragon God keep the peace through duels to the death, but when a bloody prophecy puts a sacred warrior between revenge and duty, his choices can change the fate of the world and unleash the all out war he was bound to prevent. ***** What would happen if a fantasy book could present a rich, unprecedented universe, but at the same time brought together the best of Game of Thrones' mature realistic approach with the epic action of 300 and the inspiring atmosphere of heroism of The Lord of the Rings? And what if it were written from one of the world's most awarded unproduced film scripts in its genre, resulting in a revolutionary style, the Cinenovel, in which instead of feeling like just reading a great story you can witness it while an unforgettable movie unfolds before your mind's eye.? What if this same story, amidst legendary battles and startling twists, could make you cheer, cry, thrill, and finally amaze yourself with a breathtaking ending? The answer may be before you...
