The world is divided into two categories of individuals: those who believe that destiny is preordained and those who believe they can shape their own path. Lianne identifies with the latter group. However, growing up in the dazzling light of Lys, she discovers that light can both illuminate and blind. Her destiny appears to have been written even before her birth, but she steadfastly dedicates herself to defending her faction and the people she holds dear from the darkness of Suarì.
Throughout this struggle, Lianne confronts the intricate truths of life: love can be deceptive, lies may conceal profound realities, and there exists a fundamental difference between those who strive to live and those who merely survive. Amidst the chaos of emotions and fragments of lost life, Lianne finds herself torn between conflicting sentiments and enduring challenges.
The question she faces is whether she will succeed in saving her people from an uncertain fate and bringing clarity to the darkness enveloping their world. Rising is a gripping tale that delves into the conflict between preordained destiny and individual will, unveiling the hidden secrets in what seems to be a flawless world and testing the strength and courage of a passionate woman.

We Who Lie
He was the bastard prince no one wanted. She was the bard girl who gave him her heart. Now he's king- and the first thing he did was outlaw stories. Lyra Lightfoot once believed in fairy tales. She believed in love, in music, in Cyril Abecassis- the second-born prince with ink-stained fingers and a wounded heart. But power changes people, and Cyril didn't just take the throne of Xena; he's begun to destroy everything they once held dear. Authors are vanishing. Magic is hunted. A boy is burned for reading a book. And Lyra? She's running for her life with Arthur, a battle-scarred magician whose heart bleeds ink and fire. But Cyril is not done with her-not by a long shot. Because beneath his cruelty is a secret only she knows, a monstrous truth wrapped in soft promises and broken wrists. To save the kingdom, Lyra must dig through the ruins of the boy she loved and decide whether he can still be saved-or if she must become the villain in their story. A haunting tale of forbidden magic, fractured love, and the cost of telling the truth shows humanity at its lowest point- and how far one could go for a lost soul.

Ren is a quiet teen in a small New Zealand town. He just wants to finish school, avoid the local bullies and maybe tell his best friend how he feels. But one blistering summer day he bursts into flames and emerges as the Sun God's champion: a radiant, female warrior. For generations, the Phoenix's power has passed through the women of his family, so his grandmother is as shocked as he is when it chooses a boy.
