In Victorian London, Lady Evelyn Sinclair is the epitome of grace and high society, but she feels a deep yearning for something beyond the expectations placed upon her. As the daughter of a powerful aristocratic family, she is expected to marry well and live a life of privilege, but Evelyn's heart longs for mystery and magic-something more than the confines of Victorian ballrooms.

But Alistair is no ordinary man-he is a faerie, a creature from a hidden world of supernatural beings who have lived in secrecy for centuries. His kind is bound by ancient laws that forbid them from engaging with humans, but his growing feelings for Evelyn threaten to defy these rules. As their forbidden love intensifies, Evelyn is introduced to a secret world of faeries, vampires, and shapeshifters who walk among humans in disguise. But this world is fraught with danger.

Their love could spark a war between the two worlds, and Evelyn must decide if she is willing to risk everything for the man she loves. In Fae and Flesh, passion and danger collide in a tale of forbidden love, magic, and sacrifice.

Valenhart Academy
This story is currently being edited, it may not flow perfectly in some spots that are currently being edited. Thank you for your patience! Rowan Blake doesn't follow rules-she breaks them for fun. So when a psychosexual placement test ends in handcuffs and a court date, she expects jail, not an acceptance letter to Valenhart Academy, an elite and secretive institution where students learn psychology, power exchange... and the art of submission. Thrown into a world of contracts, collars, and complex dynamics, Rowan is determined to outlast the semester without bending to anyone's will. Especially not Theo Vale-the calm, unshakable upperclassman who steps in to supervise her beginner class. He's everything she resents: controlled, dominant, unreadable. And infuriatingly attractive. But Valenhart doesn't just teach obedience. It teaches truth-about desire, control, and the parts of yourself you'd rather ignore. As Rowan battles the system, her health, and her own rebellious heart, she'll have to decide what's more terrifying: surrendering control... or admitting she might actually want to.
