In a world torn apart by an unending war between humans and beasts, where death has become the currency of coexistence, achieving balance seems an impossible dream. The humans relentlessly hunt down monstrous creatures, only to face the fierce retaliation of these very beings. Destruction and pain perpetuate in an endless cycle, feeding off each other. Amidst the prevailing disbelief in any change, the question lingers - is this grim reality truly unalterable?
Enter Bevenliana, a young human who refuses to accept the numbing monotony of this conflict. Her insatiable curiosity drives her, a thirst for challenges that surpass the boundaries imposed upon her. While the world's hardened rules dictate hatred between human and beast, Bev hungers for something more, something that lies beyond the sanctioned confines.
A turning point comes when Bev rescues a young beast-child - a creature traditionally viewed as an enemy - shocking her village and igniting heated discussions. At odds with her parents and stifled by the suffocating conformity, Bev makes a daring choice: to escape the village that fails to comprehend her need for exploration and understanding.
As Bev embarks on her journey, she discovers a realm beyond the divide - a place where the lines between human and beast blur, where shared experiences and emotions defy the barriers of tradition. Guided by her unwavering determination, Bev encounters individuals from both sides who secretly yearn for change, individuals who believe in a world where coexistence doesn't demand constant bloodshed.
But the path to unity is far from easy. Faced with prejudice, skepticism, and the shadows of an ancient conflict, Bev must summon her courage and resilience to bridge the gap that has divided their world for generations. Along the way, she learns that compassion can be a more powerful weapon than hatred, and that understanding the unknown can be more rewarding than the comfort of the familiar.

Royal Flame
Fate has a deeply poignant way of reshaping lives, as beautifully captured in the story of a young woman named Liora. With a kind heart and a spirit full of warmth, Liora lived with an intellectual disability that made her journey through life all the more challenging. On the eve of her 18th birthday, she stepped into the glittering world of her mate's luxurious penthouse-an extravagance that mirrored his status and power. It was within this lavish space that their connection blossomed, marking the beginning of a remarkable journey filled with love and resilience. However, life took an unexpected turn when Liora discovered she was pregnant.

Yet, beneath the surface, there existed secrets that held the potential to change their lives forever. As Liora and Malzahar traversed the complexities of their relationship and the expectations of their pack, they discovered that life's challenges, rather than tearing them apart, offered invaluable lessons in compassion and empathy. Together, they came to understand that love, resilience, and understanding could turn obstacles into opportunities, proving that with the right partner by your side, even the most difficult paths can lead to the most beautiful, fulfilling destinations.
Grim Echoes
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.Complete
