Cursed Times - Only Yesterday! Sequel to Wattys 2015 winner!
By accident rather than design, Trueth - one of the last European witches - finds herself in an ancient Egyptian civilisation. It isn't quite what she has expected - for one thing this place is as full of magic as it is lacking in decent showers. Instead, there is evil lurking just below the surface of the Nile. Together with the friends and family she found in 'Cursed Times - What Now?', Trueth will need to embark on yet another world-saving adventure. One that hopefully does not end in a romantic shipping-wreck. From pyramids, tombs and temples - as well as a palace governed by a randy fourteen-year-old Pharaoh - her journey will ultimately take her to the mists of the North and towards her people. With or without a man at her side. 'Only Yesterday' can be read as standalone adventure novel, or as part of the 'Cursed Times' Series. Warning: In 'Cursed Times - What Now?' all you needed was popcorn. Now you need something stronger - much stronger! === Copyright information, given the recent acts of content piracy: All copyrights of the texts are mine exclusively.

The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Complete

A half-angel, half-demon girl on the run. A childhood friend turned betrayer. A dying boyfriend she's desperate to save. And a monstrous father who wants her heart-for power, not love. Inara Astaroth has never truly been safe. Born to an angel mother and a demon vessel, her very existence is a threat-especially to the godless deity who lives within her father and wants to consume her heart to ascend. After surviving her father's violent return and the betrayal of her closest friend, Inara has spent most of her life in hiding-until now. With her boyfriend Cyrus slowly succumbing to an incurable magical sickness, Inara embarks on a journey across a fractured land in search of a mythical cure, accompanied by the last person she ever wanted to see again: Kota, the werewolf boy who once led her into a trap that nearly got her killed. As they travel through cursed forests, collapsing shrines, and time-bending ruins, old wounds begin to reopen-and so do old feelings. Inara doesn't know what's worse: the growing tension between her and Kota, or the creeping realization that her heart may not belong entirely to Cyrus anymore. But with her father still hunting her and the cure buried deep beneath the sea in a lost city guarded by ancient powers, she doesn't have the luxury of doubt. Because she's not just trying to save the boy she loves- She's trying to outrun the fate written in her blood. **A lush and haunting romantic fantasy, perfect for fans of emotionally complex characters, dangerous magic, found family, and star-crossed lovers.**Complete

But after revealing the disturbing origins of a generational curse imprisoning her family and their magic, will Lily have the power to break the chains and rewrite history?

For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away.
