In the land of Aldyn, mages are feared. They are seen as living weapons, bombs just waiting to explode. Which, of course, means that every noble needs to get their hands on one.
Anya LaSair is a mage for the sleazy Lord Rian. She is feared, but never respected. She dreams of escaping her small village, but she can't leave her family behind.
That all changes when she is attacked by a mage named Lorcan who seeks to steal her magic for himself.
She is saved by a handsome stranger by the name of Elias who protects her as they flee in search of safety and allies, but along the way, she discovers that Elias harbours many secrets and may not be all he appears to be. Anya soon finds herself caught up in a war that has lasted a thousand years and discovers that her past and her true self may be at heart of finally achieving peace for the ancient Fae kingdoms and the humans.
Crown of Iron is a fantasy story inspired by Irish mythology with a POC protagonist, LGBT relationships, magic, and the struggle between one's heart and being the hero the world needs you to be.

Moon Blessed
For three-hundred years, the five kingdoms in the land of Damir have lived at peace with one another, but tensions are rising once more. Rumors abound that an ambitious Emperor seeks to conquer the entire land and claim it for his own. Desperate to prevent this plot from coming to light, the King and Queen of Nyctoli arrange a tournament in the hopes of uniting the five kingdoms under a different goal: winning the hand of their daughter, Princess Nastasia. Being the first Moon Blessed in centuries is a gift, but also a curse. All her life, Nastasia has been treated as a precious treasure meant to be hidden and guarded, for every Moon Blessed before her led a life leading to martyrdom, and many are afraid that her fate will be the same. Now, Nastasia has gone from being a treasure to a prize. That isn't something she can quietly accept. An air of danger looms and Nastasia is determined to forge her own path before she is forced down the same one her predecessors trod.

A magic-addicted spy trapped in the queen's service must track a princess-turned-assassin in order to earn her freedom, but things get complicated when she falls for the princess she's supposed to capture. ***** Weak. Cursed. That's how seventeen-year-old Kayden Branimir, the realm's deadliest assassin, views herself. Some believe she could save the world with her rare healing magic, but she gave up on her powers long ago after failing to save her best friend. Her life changes when she receives a letter from her supposedly dead twin brother, Alaric, begging to be rescued from rival territory Leodia. For the first time since her friend's accident, Kayden is determined to be the hero, but she must learn to embrace her magic--and herself--along the way. Strange. Unnatural. Those are the words whispered about eighteen-year-old Zara Tait, a Leodian spy addicted to soul-stealing magic. Forced into the queen's service, Zara wants to escape and return home, but she has nothing to offer the queen in exchange for her freedom. When Kayden arrives in Leodia, Zara sees the quiet girl with unique magic as the bargaining chip she needs. But the more she learns of Kayden, the more her feelings grow. Now, Zara must choose between her freedom and the dangerous assassin she hadn't meant to fall for.

Elira, the quiet daughter of a provincial noble, has always dreamed of freedom beyond her family's cold walls. But when her kingdom teeters on the brink of ruin, she is forced into a political marriage with Prince Kaelen - the exiled heir of the cursed Velmorian dynasty. A prince shrouded in shadows. A crown tainted by blood. Kaelen bears a monstrous curse that twists both body and soul, isolating him from the living and binding him to a forgotten, crumbling palace ruled by ancient magic and spectral creatures.

But saving Kaelen means defying kings, awakening forbidden magic, and facing a tragic destiny written long before she was born. A tale of dark fantasy, forbidden love, cursed kingdoms, and battles that scar the soul. When thorns entwine crowns, will love conquer the darkness - or be consumed by it?

Draygon Frost | Book 1 | ✔️
To hell with everyone. That's Siobhan's motto. Not even her loyal mentor Elias can strip her of her desire to barter passage to Ardorn where she can live without fear of her past catching up to her, a past that destroyed everything she loved. Streetwise and hardened to reality, Siobhan keeps her head down and out of the crosshairs of the Vanguard Generals--men who enslave anyone with magic into will-less perfect soldiers and kill any human who gets in their way. Their brutal methods part crowded streets and make even Siobhan shiver at the sight of their crimson cloaks. To stay clear of them is to survive and Siobhan is a master of survival. Until she meets Wren. His naïve, wannabe thief ways, would have been fun to play with if not for the fact he's willing to sacrifice everything, including his life, in order to rescue his fiancé. Siobhan finds herself pulled into his quest; one that shatters everything she thought she wanted. Reaching Ardorn becomes the least of her problems. If Siobhan doesn't accept who she was born to be, the entire world will shatter and a great evil will rise. So much for having a little fun. ___ This story was posted to Wattpad and only Wattpad.
