Once a housemaid, now a lady.
Once lovers, now strangers.
Lyra Walcott had once been truly and madly in love with the ever-stern, ever- brooding Duke of Martine. Granted, Lyra had once also been a servant to him as well. Until one night when she vanished in the night leaving him confused, desperate, and alone. Now she has reappeared a decade later masquerading as a painfully wealthy, newly widowed Lady.
But she's come back after nearly ten years with a dark secret and a blackmailer holding her past over her head. Who else can Lyra turn to other than the one man who has never betrayed her?

Beg For Mercy
After a brush with death, Lyra Hart fled to New York City with nothing but a single suitcase and her best friend by her side. Years later, she's become one of New York City's top lawyers, and a bona fide badass with a need for control. She's fierce, independent, and cold as ice. Determined to stay single after her harrowing experience, Lyra keeps her heart well guarded, suspicious of everyone and trusting of no one. But what happens when girls' night out goes awry, and Lyra ends up in the arms of the only man who challenges everything she thought she knew? Will she give in to temptation? Or can she fight the magnetic force that draws them together? ___ Wren Munro is a powerful businessman. He's arrogant, broody, and hot as hell... And completely unattainable. He prefers his bachelor life, entertaining the company of women only when the mood strikes. Until he sees her. Lyra Hart. She's sassy, stubborn, and everything he never knew he wanted, yet more than he ever expected. But then she disappears, leaving him with nothing but unquenched desire and an insatiable need to have her. Just once. A single night, and then he can move on and go back to life as he knew it. Or can he? When two unexpected worlds collide, who will lose first in this seductive battle of the sexes? ** This is now an excerpt.

A Heart Untamed
Lady Lyra Wynthorne has spent her life in the shadow of her father's power, protected by his influence and sheltered by her status. As the only daughter of a High Lord, she's always had everything she could ever want-except her freedom. When she learns that her father has arranged a marriage for her, Lyra decides to take her fate into her own hands. Running away from the life she's always known, she ventures out into a world far harsher than she imagined, determined to prove she's more than the spoiled, reckless girl everyone thinks she is. Sir Lucian Dorne, her father's most trusted knight, has watched over Lyra since they were children. He knows her better than anyone-or so he thinks. As her childhood friend and protector, he's seen her wild, impulsive nature, and he believes she has much to learn about the realities of life. Never did Lucian expect Lyra to disappear, nor could he have predicted the sorrow and emptiness that would fill the void she left behind. Months later, when Lucian finally tracks Lyra down, he's shocked to find that the damsel he once knew is no longer in distress. Lyra has changed. Hardened. She has found a new strength and independence in the face of hardship, and she no longer needs saving. As Lucian sees her with new eyes, he begins to wonder: how can he protect someone who doesn't need protecting? And when he discovers the true reason she fled, Lucian is forced to confront his deepest fear. What does a knight do when the damsel he's sworn to protect is ready to fight her own battles? And more importantly, what happens when that damsel is the woman he's been in love with all along? In this story of love, loyalty, and self-discovery, Lyra and Lucian must face the truth of who they are-and who they are to each other.Terminé
Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

Her hope for being free is all but gone when she finds herself awaiting judgment from a ruler she's never met. When her captor throws her down at the king's feet, she expects him to wave her away.

The leader of her old guild and the one she believes is responsible for selling her into slavery. Only now he's wearing a crown. Kaia has no desire to be at his mercy again, so she fights. She tries to flee only to be subdued by Soren's magic and caught in the middle of the dark forces that are at play. Kaia finds herself trapped once more in the clutches of the man who betrayed her, and now that he has her, he has no intention of letting her go.Terminé
Doted by the Ruthless Billionaire
Twenty-year-old Lyra Moreno appears to be nothing more than a cold, sleepy noble girl porcelain-doll beautiful, always wrapped in blankets, and seemingly uninterested in anything beyond her next nap. To her father, stepmother, and scheming stepsister, she's a burden. But beneath her drowsy charm lies a dangerous secret. Lyra is the anonymous founder of GALAXY, a covert hacker syndicate responsible for dismantling criminal empires from behind glowing screens. Living quietly under the doting care of her powerful grandparents, Lyra is named heir to their fortune but on one condition....she must marry Elias Vale, the ruthless, cold CEO of Vale Corp, who just so happens to be investigating Virgo.exe, her old hacker alias. Seven years older, Elias is brilliant, powerful, and emotionally walled off until fate throws him into the path of the sleepy girl he's been unknowingly watching. When her scheming stepmother and stepsister pay a criminal to ruin her, the two are dragged into a public relationship... and a private war they can't avoid. And even, secretly..... marriage. As they work together to uncover a traitor within Vale Corp, Elias begins to see the fierce strategist behind Lyra's sleepy façade. And Lyra, used to keeping the world at a distance, starts to wonder if she's finally found someone who sees all of her and wants her anyway. But with enemies in her own home and shadows from her past returning, Lyra must decide: can she let someone into her world, or is silence the only way to survive?
The Weaver's Source
Lyra has been waiting for her Weaver to find her for years, unable to leave the safety of her home and only connected to him through passionate dreams - remembering nothing about him apart from his wild, sensual song. When the lone Weaver Grigore finally sweeps into her life, she finds herself instantly drawn to him, instantly recognising him as the man she had dreamt of for years. However, Lyra quickly runs into problems. Not only does he fail to recognise her but he's nothing like she imagined; cold, stubborn and determined to keep himself away from her. Rejected but determined to keep him safe as her magic whispers of his death, she follows him through danger and blood as he stalks his own hunt, desperate to shake the hooks that keeps pulling him back to her. First Volume of the Dark Folktales. This is a horror, erotic romance, with monster-of-the-week vibes, such as Buffy, Supernatural, Witcher, Claymore, and Van Helsing. (I'm a massive fan of the monster hunting genre.) Written from Sep 2011 until April 2014. This was the very first adult romance I'd written and has a plethora of problems. Despite this, I won't do further editing as I'm putting my efforts into a full re-write. Author's note - Please be mindful of what you're saying when commenting. I'm happy with helpful criticism, spelling/grammar pointers, questions or simple chatter. However, a tirade of needless, unhelpful complaints and just outright rude commentary is not welcome. My stories are terrible first drafts, they're going to be riddled with issues, so just politely highlight if you feel there's a problem. I'll listen and likely take on board the criticism. And if you're not enjoying it, that's fine, just move on and thank you for giving it a shot. The cover is my own art; sketched 2017.

Of Fire and Shadow
ACOTAR Fanfic featuring Azriel, Lyra (OC), Rhysand, Feyre, Cassian, Nesta, Mor, Amren, Tamlin, Elain, Keir, and Dis (OC) What if Sarah J. Maas didn't just write A Court of Thorns and Roses... what if she lived it? When Sarah J. Maas vanished, everyone assumed she was working on her next novel. Her husband knew better. Desperate, he calls Lyra-ex-military, pragmatic, trained to survive anything-and tells her the truth... Sarah didn't just imagine Prythian. She went there. The portal that fuels her stories opens only for those it chooses, and when Lyra crosses through, she finds herself in a world of Fae courts, shadows, and impossible magic-a world that doesn't follow the rules of fiction. And she's about to realize that fiction and fate have thinner boundaries than anyone believed. Armed with nothing but her instincts and a soldier's will, Lyra must navigate the same deadly beauty that made Maas's books legendary. But the longer she stays, the more Prythian begins to change her-body, mind, and soul. To save Sarah, Lyra will have to survive the story itself. Because this time, the author isn't writing the ending-Lyra is. [COMPLETED STORY] Picks up after ACOWAR ⚠️ Content Warning: This story explores trauma, survival, and healing-both physical and emotional. Lyra's journey includes scenes of violence, captivity, and intimacy (consensual and non). Please read mindfully and take breaks if needed. ❤️ My first fanfic. Literally started as a "what if" and spiraled into a full-blown, emotional, magic-fueled rescue mission through Prythian itself. Expect: 🗡️ Portal fantasy meets meta-fanfic chaos with an OC heroine 💔 Found family, shadows, spice, and trauma-healing arcs 🔥 Azriel being emotionally unavailable (until he isn't) 🌌 Prythian reimagined through a mortal's eyes 🪞Reality, storytelling, and identity colliding [Disclaimer: this is a fanfic based creation. All credit to the ACOTAR series, original characters, etc. go to Sarah J Maas]Terminé
