Heart of Fire series Book 1
Ember is a young girl who, though a shy and naïve individual, considered her life to be pretty good. When everyone and everything she knew turned upside down for her in middle school, she accidentally found herself armed with powers over fire that had been dormant all her life. Ashamed, she ran off, committing herself to self-exile in secret for years in the forest beyond her old home. Only after a chance encounter with an element wielder like her has she discovered that there might be a place for her after all.
A mysterious man named Lythios is training the Catalysts, a group of humans with elemental powers. They are to combat Kaltath, the dark being who, though locked away for many years, is rising from his imprisonment. If he succeeds, then the world will be wrought with elemental imbalance on a catastrophic level. Now, Ember must learn to control the fire that she fears or the people of the world she never wanted to harm will face the consequences of the powers that the Catalysts never should have had.

Argent Eye II
It's been six months since the whole Haydn incident. Darkness and Light are back where they belong- wherever that is- and things are starting to return back to what is considered seemingly normal. Having just started her second year at university, Millie Robinson hopes she can complete it in relatively normal circumstances. However, for someone that's capable of wielding all seven elements, that just isn't the case. A series of stabbings in the area and other mysterious, and somewhat inexplainable occurrences arouse suspicion that somebody out there knows about Argents- and of course, it's somebody who shouldn't. As usual, Millie seems to find herself more involved than she originally thought, and it's up to her and the team to stop this dark force from spreading. Will she be able to overcome betrayal and the barriers in her mind to stand up against the enemy again? Or will she give in to the doubt clouding her thoughts? Follow Millie on yet another journey of self discovery and action-packed drama! **Book 2 of the Argent Eye series** **Contains some strong language**Complete

Kaelen never imagined that a single artifact could change the fate of the world. When he discovers the Ember Crown, a powerful relic of fire and temptation, he is thrust into a battle not just for survival, but for his very soul. The crown grants unimaginable power-but every burst of flame comes with a cost. Its whispers tempt him toward domination, its energy tests his restraint, and its hunger threatens to consume everything he holds dear. Joined by a band of warriors, mages, and scouts-including the fierce Lira, the wise Fenric, the radiant healer Mira, and the cunning twins, Ryn and Elara-Kaelen must face Smoke, a shadowy enemy determined to seize the crown for his own dark ambitions, and the Black Hunter, a relentless predator stalking the battlefield. From the scorched plains to the heart of enemy fortresses, Kaelen's journey is one of fire, strategy, and moral choices. Every battle, every short breath, every flicker of flame tests his mastery, courage, and resolve. Will he succumb to the crown's seductive power-or rise above it to protect those he loves? In a world where fire can destroy or illuminate, the choice is his. The crown is his. And the ashes will tell his story.
