A Crown of Yew and Ash

The Black Crusaders are dead. Their legacy burned, their Order shattered, their sacred oaths buried beneath ash and ruin.
Only Grandmaster Silas remains-a lone knight clad in blackened armor, crowned with Yew, and wielding a sword forged to judge both the living and the dead. To the world, he is a relic of a forgotten war, feared more than the monsters he hunts-a ghost in iron, walking the line between life and death.
But the darkness that consumed his brothers was no accident. There are whispers beyond the Veil-of an ancient betrayal, of a name Silas once called brother, now lost to shadows.
Haunted by echoes of the past, hunted by the corruption festering in the world he swore to protect, Silas marches toward a reckoning in blood, ash, and the broken promises of men.
The last Black Crusader carries more than a sword. He holds the weight of the dead.

The Girl The River Refused
Hidden Fangs is the kind of town where girls disappear. The kind of town with whispers about vampires, werewolves, and a cursed river that never gives back what it takes.

For centuries, the town has traded one girl a year to the Night Realm to keep the monsters away. But Amanda survived. And now the King of the Night himself has come to collect what the town owes.

The Hollow Crown
In the city of Veilrest, where shadows breathe and nightmares walk, power is a curse disguised as a gift. The once-glorious kingdom has been rotting from within, its throne left vacant after the royal bloodline was slaughtered in the dark of a moonless night. Now, the land festers under the rule of a nameless tyrant-one whose face is never seen, only felt in the whispers of the cursed and the screams of the vanished. Kastor Veyne never wanted to be a hero. With a metal-forged leg replacing what was lost to Veilrest's cruelty, he's learned that survival is the closest thing to victory. But when a prophecy names him as the rightful heir to the Hollow Crown, he's dragged into a war of monsters and gods-one he never asked to fight. By his side is Silas, a rogue with ink-stained hands and secrets older than the kingdom itself, and Lysara, a necromancer with a grudge against the living and an even greater hatred for fate. As Kastor unearths the city's buried horrors, he discovers that the Hollow Crown is not a throne-it's a prison. And the only way to break free might be to embrace the darkness he's spent his whole life running from. But power always comes with a price. And Kastor is about to learn what it means to lose everything.Complete

HYBRID OF THE FALLEN
Seraphina's world crumbled on her 18th birthday when her family's darkest secret was laid bare for the entire pack to see. Her mother had committed the ultimate sin-an affair with a Fallen, a tribe of fierce warriors with black wings, locked in a bitter feud with the werewolf kingdom. For that crime, her mother was burned at the stake, and Seraphina was cast aside by her father and sister, left to rot in the royal pack as nothing more than a slave. Her life became a cycle of pain, fear, and regret. Every night, she clung to the hope of her fated mate, the one person destined to love her. But when he appeared, he wasn't just anyone-he was the returning prince, the future king of the werewolves. And instead of saving her, he shattered her with rejection, disgusted by her tainted blood-half fallen, half wolf, an abomination. Broken, without a wolf, and branded a disgrace, Seraphina believed she had nothing left. Until the day she discovered the impossible truth-her second mate.
