Millie Barton arrives at her grandparents' pioneer farm for the summer amidst rumours of a mysterious, bloodthirsty animal prowling the backwoods of rural Ontario.
Soon after, a waif-like boy appears at the edge of their farm field, watching Millie from behind a tree. She learns he's a British Home Child named Sam Ward, who's been hiding in the forest after escaping the scythe of an abusive farmer. Despite her better judgment, she agrees to keep his daily visits a secret while it quickly becomes apparent that the terrifying beast in the woods is now stalking her grandparents' farm specifically . . . and Sam knows far more than he's telling.

Gutsy teenager, Emma, didn't ask to be exiled. But after one rebellion too many, her father ships her off to a remote college in southern England-a last-ditch effort to straighten her out. She expects boredom, isolation. What she finds is something else entirely. The students are strange. The rules, even stranger. And when she begins to see things-things no human should-Emma realizes this place hides more than just secrets. Half the student body isn't human at all; rather creatures of myth and legend; creatures she thought only existed in fantasy novels. And neither, it turns out, is she. Buried secrets surface; Emma isn't who she thought she was. She's the prophesied reincarnation of an ancient Queen, tied by fate to a powerful Lycan King-and to a future she never asked for. But fate can be cruel. When the Lycan King rejects her under mysterious circumstances, Emma is thrust into a brutal game of power, and identity. Torn between the world she came from and the one she was born to rule, she must decide: embrace the crown and the chaos that comes with it or rewrite her own fate despite the odds stacked against her. In Book One of the Alpha Addiction series, Emma's exile becomes the beginning of everything she was never meant to discover.

Rising Powers
(74,890 words) The wind rushed past me as my wings beat against the night sky. I noticed a copse of trees up ahead. I slowed to a stop, talons clutching a low-hanging branch. I looked beyond the trees and a pair of glowing golden eyes met my own. Wolf eyes. My eyes widened in fear as I took off. I dodged the trees in my path, but one branch snapped on my wing. My vision blurred, pain lacing through my wing. I continued to flap my wings, clinging desperately to the notion I would make it out alive. More than one wolf was chasing me, their paws a staccato on the ground. They would catch up. They would devour me. I tried to stay in the air, but the pain was unbearable. I fell to the ground, fluttering down like a dead leaf. I snapped my eyes open. Breathing heavily, I sat up. My room shifted in and out of focus as my eyes adjusted. When I was little, my father always told me that dreams were just my imagination, that people were never chased by wolves, and people certainly could never be birds. Vera Stone is a seventeen-year-old girl who lives in a small Louisiana town by the bayou. Small, boring, where nothing ever happens. Or so she and her friends think. One night the hidden darkness surrounding their town and their lives comes to the surface. Will Vera and her friends figure out the secrets hidden through their town's history before it's too late?Complete
