In Donum, the good and worthy people pray to receive one of 6 magical gifts from the spirits, and if they're goodly enough and worthy enough, they might get one on the first day of the new year. They believe their land to be blessed with magic to guide them toward prosperity, longevity, and happiness. They believe their good magic overpowers the Dark gifts the vengeful spirits bestow to restore order.
Claudia hates the magic. She never wanted the twisted power she has over everyone. She's given up her chance for romance in exchange for a real relationship with her mother, and she's resigned to live a quiet and lonely existence with her books. She refuses to corrupt those around her, and she's doing her best to make sure the Dark community doesn't know she exists.
Tyler once thought he was the luckiest man in the world, and then his future of comfort and passion was sucked away in an instant. Now he can't let anyone know the special kind of power he has, or risk putting himself in danger.
Ivy knows exactly where she wants her life to go. Ever since the new year brought the gift she deserved, she hasn't needed to concern herself with rules or hardships, and she doesn't see that changing with her new surroundings.
It's a very unlikely circumstance for these three students to be on the same university campus, but it's happened. Magic, power, and love converge to create a much more complicated year than any of them expected.

Elventale (Book #1 in the Of Elves and Gods Trilogy)
In a time long gone, everything was perfect. There were three species that ruled the world: Elves, Gods, and Humans. They lived in a perfectly balanced world for thousands of years until an unfortunate turn of events caused the elves to be banished to the trees, the gods to the skies, and the humans to the grounds. Inevitably, the two greater powers began a cataclysmic war. Today, thousands of years later, is when things start to take an unexpected turn. Victoria Fugo is an orphan. Her parents abandoned her at a rundown orphanage as a newborn, and she has never known any love except for that given by her stingy caretaker, which is next to none. She has a single friend, and spends most of her time reading fairy tales and daydreaming. Cerritulus is the odd elf out. Donned in colorful shorts and kimonos with weird patterns, she's an outcast of all sorts, considered strange even by her own parents. Her total obsession with myths and history unsettles even the most hardened treasure hunters. Certus is a teenage heartthrob. He's intelligent, gorgeous, athletic, and humble. While all of the other elves, male and female, throw themselves at him, he brushes them off and prefers to disappear into the background with a book. Tom is Victoria's only friend. Her mischievous, attractive, extremely intelligent friend. His strong skill is coming up with elaborate schemes and flirting with every person who ever passes through the orphanage. When these four are strung together and get tangled up in a myth as old as time, they soon discover that there is much more to old legends than just a few elves and a prophecy. Think you know magic? Think again.Complete

For mature audiences, 18+. ~~~*~~~ All creations carry a trace of the maker's ethereal energy, whether deliberately placed in the magical Artifacts made by the Alchemists, or unwittingly left in the handiwork of ordinary people.

But with war looming between her birth country of Valesk and her new home in Caedra, how long can that peaceful life last?
