In the steam-powered city of Ironcrest, secrets and shadows intertwine in a dangerous dance. Haunted by the fire that stole her family thirteen years ago--and the bloodshed that followed two years past--Valerie returns to Ironcrest where the whispers of the Grim Reaper filled the air. Amidst the flickering gas lamps and churning machinery, she encounters Atticus, an annoying and snarky man who happens to have a muse for cursed items that seem to resonate with Valerie's troubled past. As they navigate the intricate maze of Ironcrest's cobblestone streets and hidden alleyways, a forbidden attraction simmers between them. Together, they must unravel a web of deceit and betrayal, where every turn reveals a new truth. In a city where love and loyalty are as fragile as clockwork and a place where secrets are drowned out, Valerie discovers that the line between hero and villain is perilously thin.

And with a chuckle, it vanished into my shadowy bedroom, as though it was never there. There I was, floating upside down, staring into my bedroom until I couldn't anymore.

Hunted
**COMPLETED*** This is book 2 and can be read as a standalone but I recommend you read "Fated" first. Something caught my eye and when I looked up in the mirror I saw Rykan stepping inside, shutting the door and sliding the lock in place. My heart hammered in my chest as he approached me. He came right up behind me, setting his hands on my hips, never breaking our gaze through the mirror. "Kora," he murmured, stepping closer until my back brushed against his chest. His hand slid down to the end of my skirt and he flattened his palm against my bare leg, sliding his hand up my skirt. "I'm married," I blurted, swallowing hard and trying to ignore how much I liked the way it felt having his hands on me. "Hm," he grunted, narrowing his eyes as he continued his ascension up my outer thigh. His touch sent tingles all over my body, sending heat right between my legs. He gripped my leg and suddenly turned me, his hand now palming my ass as he pulled me against him, his teeth scraping against my neck as his other hand up to my neck. "Didn't seem to bother you when you had me down your throat last night," he said, wrapping his hand around my throat and lifting his head to give me one of those heart-stopping stares. "In fact, I believe you started that, angel." Koralie always felt that there was a part of herself missing. A part she hadn't yet discovered. Stuck in a toxic marriage, she's navigating her way out of it when she meets Rykan, a mysterious stranger she feels an undeniable draw towards although she isn't sure why. Things become even more intense when he starts showing up in her dreams, claiming he is a werewolf and they are mates. An even more unexpected turn of events comes when Kora starts looking into the supernatural world and finds it is not as foreign to her as it should be. Warning: This story contains very mature themes including brief mentions of abuse, mature language, mental health and sexual content.Complete

Madeline Curtis, a runaway from small town in Washington, finds herself in the streets of Hollywood looking for a place to stay when she encounters a strange hooded man. In less than a second poor Madeline's entire life was flipped upside down and she is determined to find the monster that caused it all. ----------------------------- Maybe it was the way all of their hearts beat in synchronization or the bulging veins that popped out of their hands as they did their work. Somehow, some way, without the normal supervision and the taste of human blood I'd gotten just an hour ago, I broke my streak of leaving the humans to rest freely, and I killed them all. "Madeline." I announced to the crowd, at least they'd know the name to their killer when I pierced my teeth into their bodies, their bodies running cold due to the lack of blood. "Maddy?" A sadly familiar voice said from the front door. When I didn't respond he stepped closer and used his thumb to tilt my head back to look at him. I couldn't make out if it was disappointment or sadness when he looked at the remains of the human boy lying in front of me, no chance of life inside of him. "Oh, Madeline." he sighed. ----------------------------- !
