They're Rowdy, they're ragtag, and Marley Chaser, a girl alienated by a gift no one knows she has, is about to find out she's one of them. The humans of Earth can't see it, they can't know it affects everything she does through the everyday act of touching something, and they can definitely never know she has it. Until a group of unhinged, unsupervised, chaos seekers come barrelling into her ordinary life and reveal they have it too... 

Marley Chaser's life is turned upside down when the sensory condition she's convinced herself is the source of her unique ability to read objects memories is in fact a magical power. Originating from another world called Dearynn, this power is bestowed upon her and others like her called Conduix due to a connection they have to a mystical force called the Wreathe. To Marley's horror she's famous in Dearynn, and the guild Firefly need her fame if they are going to win the bid for the yearly Calamity Defence Contract. A guild of each city earns the chance to defend its occupants against the storm of monstrous beings called Oul's that ravages the continent every year, and Firefly need it to save their guild from being shut down due to a bad reputation they haven't been able to shake for thirty years. But as the bid for the contract grips their city, Marley and the Fireflies will discover how much deeper the mystery surrounding this yearly devastation goes, and how the fate of Dearynn may just lie in their hands if they fail to get to the bottom of it.

"I could feel it. The full strength of my brother's power. I didn't know how far away he was, but he definitely wasn't nearby. And yet still, he was able to reach me. Able to trinkle into my humans thoughts and fully capture the falcon's mind with absolute power. I knew my brother was scared. That fear was what made him reach out. He didn't know what Giovanna and Leona had in for him. Or worse: he did. Even though I knew by brother was afraid I also knew was a force to be reckoned with. And although Giovanna had him, he wasn't going down without a fight. He didn't have to tell me he would help us find him. I already knew. Any information he sent to me was important. My brother and I shared a connection like no other. We always had. We always would. " Part of Celeste is relieved that the people with the big guns have showed up to help, but another part of her is beginning to tear at the seams from the pressure she's endured.

She's a force, a fire that destroys all. But so is he. The saying goes to fight fire with fire. But what happens when it's not a war that fire feeds from, but passion? With danger at every turn, Eden must accept her own power all while battling an attraction to someone whose secrets are perhaps darker than her own. In a world left in ruins, humanity clings to divisioned survival under the rule of the Visitors. But these invader's reign is threatened when a new breed of super-humans emerges, possessing abilities beyond the Visitors themselves. Eden Monportor, a sheltered teenager from the Government Division, is drafted in the annual Selection ceremony, after almost 100 years of search troops searching for artefacts that may destroy everything.

Love guides, Love destroys and Love lies. It doesn't help when you're looking for the paragon of deceit. Love cripples and love blinds, but love is also overwhelming power and unspeakable joy. How can something so pure hurt people so terribly? Well, in simple, teenagers have access to this love. And when fire and ice clash, so does the love that freezes and burns within them. The 7-month timer has started, and so has the beginning of this thrilling dystopian and fantasy-romance novel that will have you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.

Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out?

He has lost everything and is forced to work for the people he hates most: The military. He has been exposed to the radioactive narcotic drug, Dark Mist, that grants him supernatural abilities, so he decides to use them to overthrow the military on his mission to dismantle, defund, and reimagine the government. Along the way, he is faced with many obstacles, such as losing his powers to his mortal enemy, encountering various thugs, and cheating death time and time again. He teams up with a couple: Mark, a soldier, and Erza, an expert healer. They each have a love/hate relationship with Lever, which causes them to phase in and out of working together.
