Spiritual warfare thriller; Christian thriller; Christian suspense.
The Styles’ family is about to be sucked into a whirlwind. Reverend Edwin Styles is a good man, but he is totally unprepared for the spiritual warfare that is about to overwhelm him and his family. He doesn’t believe in demons or warlocks, and he only theoretically believes in angels. But his ignorance of spiritual warfare won’t shield him from being chosen by God for a mission so critical that the angel who commanded the forces at The Battle of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the angel known as The Sword of the Lord, has been assigned to help him. And Edwin will need all the help this famed warrior angel has to offer. For the kingdom of darkness has assigned the Mighty Bashnar, one of its most ruthless demons and cunning military strategists, to thwart God’s plan and to destroy this man of God. He will soon learn from painful experience why this cruel warrior spirit was granted the title, Mighty.
Barbara is a Christian. But she’s not passionate about the Lord or His work. What she is passionate about is her good-looking husband, Edwin. Everything is lovely until the Mighty Bashnar attacks her husband and revives a shameful weakness from his past that shuts down their love-life. But Barbara isn’t the longsuffering type. She’s going to get her needs met one way or the other. Sharon is the perfect Christian daughter. A teenager whose wisdom and devotion to God far surpasses her fifteen years. She’s the spiritual anchor of the family—until a relentless witchcraft spirit orchestrates a devastating betrayal and assault that shakes her faith to its core, perhaps beyond repair.
And for all this, Hell’s fury is not satisfied. Only total destruction of the Styles’ family is acceptable. But is the Mighty Bashnar as strong as he thinks he is? Or will he discover that “God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty”? (1 Corinthians 1:27)

War for Salvation || ONC 2022
He stayed silent, but out of the corner of my eye, I could see him staring at me. "Right before he died he told me that he loved me. But I couldn't say it back." I added. "Why not?" He questioned. "Because I fell in love with someone else." "Oh? And who might that be?" I pulled my knees up to my chest and placed my head on them. "As cliche and taboo as it seems I fell in love with an angel. He broke through the wall I've been building up for years just by being the only one to listen and understand. Does he feel the same way? Probably not, but it doesn't stop me from loving him." "Maybe he does feel the same way, you just never looked close enough," he replied. It has been 500 years since this war had started. Both angels and demons have lost many soldiers during this time, but Lucifer and God are still determined to win their prize. The Human Realm. Raven is your top demon warrior who does whatever she can to serve her lord. What will happen when an enemy angel comes into her life and turns everything upside down?

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Complete
Divine Awakening: A Journey of Sacred Purpose
Book 1 of The Awakening Trilogy What happens when you're born spiritually gifted and raised by a family that believes your gifts are demonic?

This is the raw, powerful true story of: • A child who spoke to departed loved ones but was called a liar • Prophetic dreams that saved lives but were dismissed as coincidence • Healing abilities that brought comfort but were labeled as witchcraft • A teenage "exorcism" meant to cast out gifts that were actually divine • College years spent suppressing her true nature to gain family approval • The devastating cost of abandoning your authentic self • Angelic interventions that changed everything • Breaking generational chains of spiritual fear • Rising from wounded to healer, from rejected to awakened They called her crazy for seeing angels. They called her a liar for speaking truth. They called her dangerous for healing others. But some people are born to break the patterns that have imprisoned their families for generations. A memoir that reads like spiritual fiction, this is the story of a woman who learned that sometimes being called "too much" means you're exactly enough. Perfect for anyone who's ever felt different, been misunderstood for their gifts, or wondered if their spiritual experiences were real.

Fall From Divinity
Sixty thousand years ago, the Gods waged war upon humanity-and won. From the corpses of the fallen Titans, five empires rose, carved from divine ruin: the Empire of the Rising Sun, the Dragon Empire, the Roman Dominion, Afri Terra, and the cursed land of Erevalon. Humanity was left shattered, bound by divine fear. Yet from their ashes, a new power emerged-Aura Cultivation, the art of defying heaven itself. Now, centuries later, peace is only an illusion. When a young hero-in-training, Jin, wakes to another day of exhausting drills and impossible destiny, he never expects that his next mission will lead him into the Akamizu Woods-the very ground where gods once fell. A mission that begins as a simple hunt... will soon unravel secrets that were buried since the fall of divinity itself. Because some legends were never meant to die. And some heroes... were never meant to rise. Will the gods rise again? Will the wielder of the Seed of Destiny break the chains of fate-or be consumed by it? When divinity falls... who will rise from the ashes?
