Welcome to a realm where winter's breath never ceases, where ancient magicks dance with deadly secrets, and where love's eternal flame might yet kindle hearts as cold as frost. Step into the tale of The Thorn-Pierced Princess, where destiny weaves a tapestry of vengeance, romance, and dark enchantments.
In these frost-kissed halls dwells Prince Alejandro, heir to a kingdom trapped beneath winter's eternal grasp. Though his noble blood runs true, he seeks solace in earthly pleasures and golden mead, fleeing from the crown's heavy burden. Yet fate has woven for him a path he cannot escape-one that begins the moment a mysterious maiden with hair like ravens' wings and eyes that hold winter's secrets appears at his castle gates.
Princess Kassandra is no mere damsel seeking sanctuary. Within her breast beats a heart forged in betrayal's fires, tempered by years of exile, and strengthened by ancient magicks passed down through generations of her murdered bloodline. She comes bearing thorns beneath her silk, poison beneath her honey-yet even the most carefully laid plans of revenge may wither when true love's first tender shoot breaks through frozen ground.

A Fair Account of the Traitors Snow White and Rose Red
No one hates Snow White more than her younger half sister, Rosavere. Not since a star broke the world a thousand years ago and cursed humans with Grand Banes--powers never meant to be theirs--has there been a more traitorous tale. Snow murdered their father and was executed for her crime by Queen Estelle. But Rose's world is shattered when an ageless Snow reappears eleven years later and tries to assassinate the Queen. After a mysterious golden bear aids Snow's escape, Rose vows revenge on the ghost that still haunts her family. She hunts Snow across Albemar only to fall into the hands of a far more dangerous creature--Jack, a young man from a race of elves long thought extinct. Claiming the Queen enslaves elven children to create youth elixirs, Jack resolves to trade Rose's life to Snow to save the last of his kind. Both loyalty and vengeance waver when Rose discovers that a mirror forged from the Starfall may have warped Queen Estelle into a cunning monster. She must decide where her true allegiance lies . . . with the mother she's loved all her life, or the enigmatic half sister she barely knows. The closer Rose gets to the mirror, the more she realizes that generations of her family are tangled in its reflection--and the price to free them all will shatter far more than glass. Author's Note: My star-crossed retelling blends the more well-known tale of Snow White, the huntsman, and the poison apple with the lesser known tale of Snow White and her little sister Rose Red, and the enchanted bear. I first pitched this frost-laced story in 2012 , and after years of voyaging on the sea of queries and revisions, I hope you enjoy Rosavere and Snow White's misadventures! *Available in ebook and in print.Complete

Ace | JON SNOW
Acelyn was never one to sit quietly as the world crumbled. She knew better than to wait for rescue or mercy. Her world was one of shadows and whispers, where every move was a calculated risk. She played the game of thrones not for power, but for something far more dangerous-control over her own destiny. When Jon Snow's path crossed with hers, it was no accident. Their fates were tied by something neither could escape. The game of thrones was brutal, and if playing it was the price to protect him, then she would make sure the world remembered their names-whether through songs of ice and fire or whispers of betrayal. In a game where nothing was certain, Acelyn was the storm no one saw coming. And Jon Snow? He was just the beginning.
