Book 1 of The Dark Faerie Chronicles
Beyond the mortal realm exists a world sustained by magic, where faeries are born with a single purpose: to serve. Their powers are gifts meant to create, protect, and preserve the balance of the realm--each one a reflection of what the kingdom needs to survive.
Every faery except one.
Alina Winters--known in her kingdom as Alina Withers--is the only dark faerie ever born. While others create and heal, her magic brings decay and death. An outcast and a pariah, Alina grew up believing she was made to destroy, not to belong.
Then a mysterious army invades, wielding powers disturbingly similar to her own. The attack shatters everything the faeries thought they knew about their world. Alina's existence is no longer an anomaly. There are more faeries beyond their realm. Far more than anyone imagined.
When someone she loves is threatened, Alina does the impossible. She discovers a second power--one that contradicts everything she was taught about herself. No faery has ever wielded more than one gift.
As Alina's world expands she must confront whats in her past, her newfound power, and the possibility of love. Alina must master her abilities and uncover the reality of the world beyond her kingdom, and prepare for a future she never expected: the crown.

The Lamprey [1]
Witches are stealing human bodies. They use them to deceive other humans, to slaughter them, devour them whole. The only way they can die is by fire, and when fire is involved, things burn. With the gods absent and the world ablaze, its up to the witch-slayers to put it out. But it's a losing battle. Gremaud has nothing and wants nothing but the strength to save his burning kingdom from fire. But prophecy follows in the wake of his comrade, the chosen one. Visited by Smoke, a mysterious voice carried by wind, he is warned against his own will, but is left with only envy for his comrade- and hate. The chosen one is Adler, and he's the strongest soldier the Old Dominion has seen since the heroes of old. Adler is also the crown prince, raised safely behind walls by men and women whose only goal was to gain his favor, and his throne. So he's done with glory, comfort, and prophecy. At the end of the world, all he wants is a real friend. The bastard Evane is past his prime, and weak to stop the flames that engulf his homeland. In fact, he's already been burned by fire, and now walks mutilated and hated by the oppressive theocracy which promises equality and peace. But unable to fight and blessed with illegal magic, he's found the only way to put out the fire is to stop fighting with it. The Lamprey is a grimdark horror with graphic themes, including gore, violence, and trauma.
A Court of Desires and Darkness
A millennium ago, the Cauldron chose Canna as its Keeper. At all times, she can feel its presence, hear its whispers. She traverses the faerie realms as a lesser fae, glamoured to appear weak with hopes of staying hidden and free from those who wish to use her. She successfully does so, until the King of Hybern learns of who she is and wants her powers for his own. Set two centuries before the events in A Court of Wings and Ruin, he will stop at nothing to get what he wants: control of the human lands once again. *Azriel fanfiction!* (book #1) #1 in #acomaf (May 2021, June 2021, Aug 2021, Nov 2021) #1 in #cauldron (May 2021, Aug 2021, Sept 2021, Oct 2021, Nov 2021) #1 in #acowar (Nov 2021) #1 in #feyre (May 2021) #1 in #illyrian (May 2021, Sept 2021) #1 in #fae (June 2021) #1 in #sjmaas (June 2021, Aug 2021) #1 in #faeries (Aug 2021) #1 in #Hybern (Oct 2021, Nov 2021) #1 in #shadowsinger (May 2022) #1 in #Nesta (June 2023) Disclaimer: Characters, settings, and ideas are from S.
