Thief. Mage. Fae. Healer. Soldier. Outlaw.
In Orelen, a land where mages rule and faeries lurk in forests, Bronwyn makes her living prowling the streets of Inasmont, picking the pockets of wealthy folk and performing the occasional burglary.
But magick is dying throughout the country, leaving thousands of mages dead - or worse, without their magick, a shell of their former selves. So when High Mage Elora Caleris offers Bronwyn an ultimatum - to rot in prison or join her expedition to discover the source of the blight - she leaps at the chance to see the world outside the capital.
An unseen danger simmers in the shadows. Glory or ruin are within reach. And the fate of Orelen lies in the hands of six souls...
As long as they don't kill each other first.

Veil of Stars and Storms
One year after defeating the corrupted Maelstrom, Elaria flourishes under the reign of King Alistair and Queen Elara. United by love and destiny, they've brought peace to a once-fractured realm-bridging nobility and magic, forging alliances, and preparing for a future filled with hope. But just as celebration fills the capital's skies, a new threat rises from the shadows of the Ancient Bridge. Whispers of a growing disturbance at the edges of the world stir ancient powers best left undisturbed. A primordial force, older than legend, awakens-and its conspiracy spans far beyond Elaria's borders. To protect everything they've built, Alistair and Elara must unite the fractured races of Fae, Dwarf, Dragonkin, and Elf-and confront secrets buried since the dawn of creation. In this sweeping continuation of the Magicbound Chronicles love becomes a weapon, and destiny takes flight.
In These Days of War
The elven kingdom of Tírnéth, weakened by civil war, is unable to ward off the threat posed by the mortal men of Carransii. For the first time in recorded history, foreign feet scale the Aghadh Mountains and tread elven land in pursuit of the most coveted thing in the world: The magic of the Misty Bog. Lying to the north of Tírnéth and governed by the Seelie Queen, it is a domain even elves are forbidden from entering. Even so, Princess Eimhir and her younger sisters make the journey to its border at the behest of her father, King Lorcán, in a desperate bid to preserve his legacy as the enemy closes in from the south. He entrusts his daughters to the care of his enigmatic Warden of the North, who holds her lonely vigil in the Grey Tower of the Wall of Devin. But in these days of war, Eimhir refuses to be passive. She will not be a damsel in distress awaiting the cold kiss of her enemy's blade. With her mind honed by the cutthroat politics of the royal court, she wields it like a weapon, but can she maintain her ruthlessness through the burgeoning feelings she holds for her protector?

Chase the Villian
Two childhood friends. One turned golden boy loved by all, shining on the court and in the classroom. The other became a shadow dangerous, sharp-edged, and unapologetically cruel. Years later, college brings them back into each other's orbit. But nothing is the same. Not the stolen glances, not the late-night silences, and definitely not the way one of them now feels like the beginning of a war. What begins as a slow unraveling soon spirals into something darker. Secrets claw their way to the surface. Loyalty turns to obsession. Love becomes a game of power, punishment, and possession. This isn't a story of soft touches or sweet confessions. It's about chasing the villain, even when you know he'll ruin you. Especially when you want him to. Some stories aren't written to be safe. Some are written to hurt and still, you beg for more.

The deeper they journey into a realm of forgotten gods and fractured light, the more the storm inside them both begins to awaken.
