"Throne of Ash and Shadows"
Two kingdoms, divided by war and bound by blood, stand on the brink of destruction.
Katya, a princess once thought lost, is caught between her past and the love she has found in her kingdom's greatest enemy, King Ometz. But Ometz, for all his charm and promises of peace, harbors a secret ambition-to unite the fractured lands under his rule, and he'll stop at nothing to achieve it. As dark forces stir beyond the borders, threatening both kingdoms with an ancient magic, Katya must choose between the brother she left behind and the man who offers her a future.
Vlad, commander of Avernia's forces, cannot shake the suspicion that his sister is being used as a pawn in Ometz's grand game. With their kingdoms poised on the edge of war and a looming external threat rising from the shadows, Vlad must decide whether to trust the man who imprisoned him-or fight to save the sister he once swore to protect, even if it means breaking her heart.
In a world where loyalty and love collide, the line between friend and foe blurs, and the stakes are nothing less than the survival of all they hold dear.
Love is power, but power comes with a cost.

Sweet Riddle
In our world, emotions are a weakness. A liability. A mistake. I learned that lesson young, watching my father rule with an iron fist, his heart nothing more than a rumor. I swore I'd never fall into the same trap-never let a woman tear me apart. And yet, here I am, standing at the altar, binding myself to a woman I barely know. A woman who despises me as much as I refuse to care for her. A contract. A deal. A promise sealed in blood. She is Katya Salifov-fierce, beautiful, and the daughter of my family's sworn enemy. And I am Ivan Yozhikov-heir to an empire built on violence, betrayal, and fear. This marriage isn't about love. It's about power. Control. Survival. But no matter how much I lock my heart away, something about her chips at the ice in my veins. A fire in her eyes that tempts me to break my own rules. And in this life, temptation is just another word for destruction. Welcome to our world. Where vows are made in blood, love is a dangerous game, and betrayal is the only truth.Complete

Now, she has to expose whoever ordered her kidnapping without revealing what she's done to survive it.

And deeper into debt to a menacing witch she has no way of repaying. In a kingdom built on ashes, Aveline must decide how much of herself she is willing to burn away to become the queen no one believes she can be.Complete

We Who Lie
He was the bastard prince no one wanted. She was the bard girl who gave him her heart. Now he's king- and the first thing he did was outlaw stories. Lyra Lightfoot once believed in fairy tales. She believed in love, in music, in Cyril Abecassis- the second-born prince with ink-stained fingers and a wounded heart. But power changes people, and Cyril didn't just take the throne of Xena; he's begun to destroy everything they once held dear. Authors are vanishing. Magic is hunted. A boy is burned for reading a book. And Lyra? She's running for her life with Arthur, a battle-scarred magician whose heart bleeds ink and fire. But Cyril is not done with her-not by a long shot. Because beneath his cruelty is a secret only she knows, a monstrous truth wrapped in soft promises and broken wrists. To save the kingdom, Lyra must dig through the ruins of the boy she loved and decide whether he can still be saved-or if she must become the villain in their story. A haunting tale of forbidden magic, fractured love, and the cost of telling the truth shows humanity at its lowest point- and how far one could go for a lost soul.

Ash has always known what it means to be feared. He comes from the Third Kingdom, the only realm where dragons remain awake inside their bonded. Considered little better than beasts, the people of the Third live in isolation, training to control the instincts and will of the creature that lives inside them. Alone in the Outlands, he never expected to find a fae. Especially not one like her. When her cry shatters the forest, he understands the instinct that drives him to her side. What he does not anticipate is how fiercely he will have to fight the beast that already sees her as its own. With witches whispering of prophecy and a dark king determined to bring about a new era of ruin, they must choose: fight the fate that binds them or risk becoming the very force that brings the realm to ruin. Because the longer they travel together, the harder it becomes to tell where Ash ends and the dragon begins.
