** Marian, a thieving nobleman's daughter with too big a heart, meets Robin Hood, a daring thief with a huge ego. Will they be able to overcome pain, longing, and, finally the cruel Sheriff of Nottingham? Or will the legend end before it begins? **
"Hope, be it never so faint,
bringeth a gleam into darkness,
like a little rushlight
that costeth but a groat."
― Howard Pyle, The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood -
In the heart of Nottinghamshire, the noblewoman Maid Marian has a secret double life as a thief by night. She steals from the chests of embezzlers and distributes her loot to the poor.
When she crosses paths with the self-proclaimed King of Thieves, past and present collide, soon forcing her to choose between loyalty to the crown and the law - or rebellion.
But it's not only the dangerous raids that swirl her life: soon she is torn between her feelings for the charming Robin Hood and the honourable Guy of Gisborne.
Will Marian be able to bring justice to the kingdom?
Will she lose her heart to the King of Thieves or will the righteous Guy of Gisborne be able to preserve her honour?
In a story of love, courage and resistance, Marian's fate interweaves with the legends of Sherwood Forest.

A Tale of Two Thieves
Please enjoy this exclusive excerpt from A Tale of Two Thieves, book 1 of my forthcoming steampunk romance quartet! *** Welcome to the world of A Villainous Affair, a sensational steampunk romance saga about villains and heroes, rich and poor, science and justice, and the breathtaking power of love. The tale begins with an unlikely pair of thieves who cross paths on one fateful day in a poverty-stricken metropolis.... Once upon a time in Victorian London, lowborn thief Ruby Darling rescues Nathan Harlow, a gentleman fugitive inventor on the run from his murderous uncle. Nathan must prevent his groundbreaking aether device from falling into the wrong hands, while Ruby craves wide-scale social reform to help the country's destitute people. To ensure mutual success, they strike a deal-her protection in exchange for his technical wizardry to achieve her goal of conquering England. But Ruby has one condition-their partnership will end as soon as they overthrow the Crown. With millions of lives at stake, she can't let friendship or romance derail her mission. Nathan agrees even though he's already hopelessly in love with her. A new identity will help shield him from the authorities, so he proposes a fake marriage. Impressed by his sensible idea, she agrees. Ruby is dirt poor, so first they need to amass a fortune and build a criminal empire. Meanwhile, the League of Vigilance-a citizen anti-crime force led by the intrepid, poleaxe-wielding Eleanor Marson-is on the hunt to capture Nathan and return him to his uncle's evil clutches. The stage is set for a thrilling adventure as Ruby and Nathan Darling embark on a fantastical journey to gain unrivaled power in the underworld and beyond. Yet navigating their unconventional relationship proves just as challenging as their wildly ambitious mission, with many treacherous waters ahead of them.Concluída

Heirs | Damianette (Maribat)
Marinette is the Star of the Order of the Miraculous, the still-in-training head, as well as the True Ladybug leading the Court of Miracles. After years at Hawkmoth's mercy, Marinette has decided that enough is enough and is reaching out to Batman, the detective of detectives to help her track down the villian's true identity. What better way to do this than a field trip to Gotham? Damian, the bloodson and heir to both the Cowl and the Demon's Head, wants nothing to do with the French Class who has won the Wayne Enterprises Summer Internship, yet his father insists he needs better interpersonal skills. He supposes it won't kill him to try to work with this supposedly skilled class president if it means that everyone will get off his back for being 'aggressively asocial' (although he will still keep NDAs on standby). A seal of fate, a blood right, and a hidden prophecy lead Marinette and Damian on a rollercoaster of emotions, humourous misunderstandings, and comeuppance -- and marriage?! ___ Basically my attempt at a soulmate AU, full of just about every Damianette cliche and trope I can think of. And some original lore to make it work. Updating Monthly (at the minimum) Crossposted on Ao3 @otome_wandering (main updates are there) Maribat Awards 2024 winner
