The Shattered Veil
Book One of the Veilbound Series
A cursed seer. A Hollow Prince. A bond forged in shadows.
When the sacred Temple of Ashryn burns, Aria's world shatters. Haunted by dreams of fire and blood, she awakens marked by a power she doesn't understand-a power that calls to the Veil, the ancient barrier separating the mortal realm from a world of darkness.
Dragged from everything she knows, Aria is claimed by Rhaevan, the Hollow Prince-an immortal bound to the Veil and its secrets. Cold, dangerous, and impossibly beautiful, Rhaevan sees in Aria the key to breaking the curse that holds his kingdom in chains.
But some destinies are written in blood.
As Aria's power grows, so does the pull between them-violent, undeniable, and laced with forbidden desire. Yet the deeper they fall, the more tangled their fates become, and the truth about the Veil threatens to destroy them both.
In a world where love is a weapon and betrayal hides behind every kiss, Aria must decide: surrender to the darkness or shatter the Veil... and unleash a war that could consume everything.
The Shattered Veil is a dark fantasy romance of obsession, betrayal, and a love that could break the world-or save it. Perfect for fans of slow-burn enemies-to-lovers, morally gray love interests, and epic fantasy worlds steeped in mystery.

Starblessed
When the Veil between realms was torn apart, the world of Elyndor fell into ruin. The immortal Queen of Ashen Glass rules from her floating court above the clouds, feeding on the magic of lesser beings-humans, vampires, and half-Fae alike. Below, the world rots under her shadow. Rhiannon Vale, a healer hiding among the remnants of humankind, has spent her life concealing a secret that could damn her-the shimmer of Fae blood beneath her skin. But when the Queen's soldiers raze her village and the power she's buried all her life awakens in the flames, Rhiannon is forced to flee into a haunted wilderness where even the trees remember death. In the depths of that forest, she encounters something ancient-a voice that should not exist, bound to her by blood and ruin. Its name is whispered in legends: Aelric Thorne, the fallen vampire fae prince, cursed and forgotten beneath the earth. Though they have not yet met, the bond between them begins to stir, waking old magic that even the Queen once feared. As Rhiannon struggles to survive the wasteland and the hunters closing in, she discovers her power is not a curse but a key-one that could unmake the Queen's dominion or doom what's left of the world. And somewhere in the shadows, Aelric begins to remember the girl who burns like light in his darkness.

Aria thought the forest was her escape until it pulled her into a world she wasn't meant to see. One touch of an ancient mirror, and she's torn from everything she knows, landing in a realm where shadows breathe, torches burn blue, and danger lurks behind every corner. Kim is the Warden of the Veil. A cold, unyielding guardian tasked with protecting the portal between worlds. And now, this human girl has crossed it. She's reckless. He's ruthless. And yet, fate has other plans. In a world where magic is deadly, secrets are currency, and one wrong step could mean death, Aria must navigate a realm she doesn't understand...all while facing a man she can't ignore. Will she survive the Mirror Gate, or will the secrets behind the glass consume them both? ━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━ Aria ran harder. Legs burning. Breath slicing through her lungs. She turned a corner, tripped on her nightgown and pitched forward. A hand caught her. An arm wrapped around her waist and hauled her back against a body that felt impossibly solid and impossibly warm. She gasped as his breath touched her neck, cold enough to raise every hair on her skin and the cool edge of his metal mask grazed her neck. "If something else had been chasing you, little Wanderer," he whispered, "you would already be dead." Fear hit first. Fascination followed like a betrayal. "I hate this," she breathed. "You should." he said, and his grip tightened once before he let her go.
Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
