POSTED FOR REFERENCE. Aine and her mother were thrown from the Fae Sithen when Aine was nothing more than a child, for the crime of her being the daughter of a human father. Once her beautiful mother has wilted and died, Aine roams the moors alone, unaware of the darkness encroaching on her birthplace. When a curious human stumbles upon her little home, the two are drawn into a fight for Faerie and the living world they never could have imagined.

"THE SOULFLAME"
Some summers change you. This one might unmake her. Seventeen-year-old Aine expected boredom when she was sent to stay with her grandmother in the quiet town of Eldenglen. What she didn't expect were the strange rules. The tapping at her window. The boy in the woods with eyes like gold. There are things her family never told her-about the attic no one enters, the forest that watches, and the truth that runs deeper than blood. As days slip into dream and shadow, Aine finds herself drawn toward something ancient... and something watching. A spellbinding contemporary fantasy with lyrical prose, quiet danger, and slow-burning magic, The Soulflame is a coming-of-age tale for those who love their stories with teeth beneath the moss.Complete
Wilderborne: The Night Queen's Prophecy
When the flower blooms, And the silver axe gleams, The Queen will kiss the wounds. The blade cuts through the stalk, And the flower falls into shadow, along with its glade. Sylenthe is Wilderborne and heir to the Night Queen. And when the Night Kingdom calls her name, she must journey deep into Wilderuun, a forest where magic breathes and beasts burrow. She's prepared for ancient rites and buried truths. But she's not prepared for him. Eirik-a battle-hardened human with a past he won't speak of and a hatred for elves that runs deeper than blood. After slipping through the Veil-cast by the Night Queen herself-he becomes something impossible. An anomaly. A threat. And perhaps, the reason Wilderuun, her forest, is dying. She is of light and moondust. He is of blade and bloodied bone. Together, they're walking into the heart of a prophecy that demands their attention. And in the dark, something ancient is waiting.
What Burns Beneath
Brin wakes to fire and blood. Fae monsters descend on her once-peaceful village, leaving her best friend at death's door. All hope seems lost... until one of the monsters offers to save him. For a price. Brin accepts. Now, whenever she falls asleep, Brin finds herself face to face with the Fae. With each night, their time together transforms from a nightmare into something almost pleasant. But Brin's been told her entire life that Fae are bloodthirsty, cruel, and never to be trusted... no matter how charming this one seems. She flees to the north, hoping to find aid from a sect of holy warriors. Along the way she meets Renner, a mercenary who agrees to act as guide and guard. He's far from charming and the two find themselves constantly at odds, but he's her best chance of making it north in one piece. Their journey is fraught with danger. Fae prowl the wilderness, preying on mortals. Towns that should be safe are filled with humans in league with monsters. And every night, the Fae waits in her dreams. What to expect: 1. A heroine with strong moral convictions. 2. Romantic fantasy with a fairly dark plot, but plenty of cozy moments. 3. Strong emphasis on atmosphere and thoughtful story development. 4. Slow-burn, series-long enemies-to-friends-to-lovers arc. 5. Themes of found family, self-sacrifice, and unconditional love. 6. A fun twist on the "chosen one" trope.Complete

Isle of the Faeries
There are still some places in this world where magic exists. It clings to the remote parts of the world that Time has left behind and forgotten, where life is simpler and nature is powerful. An example is Teelin, an island off the coast of Ireland, in Teelin you are either a farmer or a fisherman unless you work in Rell the largest town on Teelin. There are few cars and fewer well paved roads, the summers are often cloudy and the winters bitter but there is a wild powerful magic in every leaf and every wave that crashes on the cliffs. It is not the magic of movies with pretty sparks and silly words, it is the raw elements, deep and dark, complex and dangerous. It is addicting, and to the residents of Teelin it is a part of life. Something to watch out for, something to beware of but in the end no different than the wild dog packs that roam the moors, dangerous but avoidable. For it is not humans who wield the magic, it is the Sidhe, the Fey who wander the island, who live in the forests and lurk under the waves.Complete

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?
