Cole Glassad couldn't care less about the upcoming palace ball meant to find a wife for the prince. Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.Complete
Grimm (DISCONTINUED)
DISCONTINUED Basically just a fairytale retelling of Snow White, Rose Red, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and some other stories. I might mix in some folklore/mythology characters as well, but idk. Also there isn't much romance. And Prince Charming is the villain. I'm in the midst of writing new chapters, so the updates will be slow. Tw: forced marriage, abuse (spousal), rape, rebellion, death, homophobia, misogyny, and please tell me if missed anything. These are all kinda important to the plot so if you're sensitive to them just don't read it.Complete

Fables Academy (TWAU)
Highest ranking at Number 1 in #Fables and in #Snigby! Thank you everyone :) - This book is unedited [updated description in 2021], under heavy embarrassment from the author, and is technically incomplete however I finally published an ending of sorts. I'll keep this book up for the nostalgia I guess, since it received so much support back in the day. Feel free to enjoy the ride again, or for the first time, nevertheless. Crazy princesses, annoying princes, cute boys, and troublesome teens. Pretty much all the Fables who make up the world of Fables Academy. ---------------------------------------------------------- Snow White is a cold person, who just wants an easy life. But being the future princess and fairest of them all isn't as easy as it seems, especially when she meets the love of her life who turns everything in her world upside down. Bigby Wolf is a handsome troublemaker and future Big Bad Wolf, who loves Snow more than anything. No one ever said that a relationship between a princess and a wolf would go smoothly though. Mary Queen, childhood friend of Bigby and arch enemy of Snow, is just a cold blooded killer who likes to fight all the time. Though sometimes, she isn't as evil as she appears to be. ---------------------------------------------------------- Despite all the drama, these three go through thick and thin together in order to finally graduate and move on to the stories that will make them become legends. This is a book that accounts all the crazy things that happen on their adventure through High School, where everything doesn't entirely make sense and nothing ever goes right. It's also my first book so I hope you like it! Contains swearing, violence, romance, bromance and probably satire.Complete
