Must the Flowers Die
Mia Tao's life in small-town South Carolina is ordinary. She dreams of studying fashion design in New York, and, occasionally, of kissing her best friend since childhood, Alex. Then Liam Morrison moves to town. Beautiful, intelligent, supportive, Liam seems like the perfect man. But Liam isn't in town by accident. Millennia ago, powerful sorceresses formed a coalition with nymphs to banish the gods back to Olympus for their cruel and destructive abuse of power. Now, Olympus is collapsing, and Liam, the demi-god son of a mortal and Artemis, has been tasked with re-opening the gateway between the mortal world and Olympus. If he fails, everyone on Olympus dies. If he succeeds, it unleashes the capricious gods to once again wreck havoc on the lives of mortals. This mission puts him in direct collision course with Alex, whose family are descendants of the sorceresses who expelled the gods and bound by duty and magic to prevent their return. As Mia begins to love Liam, she is pulled into a fated battle between two supernatural factions, with Liam on one side and Alex on the other. Alliances form and break as the creatures and beings long subordinated by human development rise to reclaim power and protect their own. Mia is not only torn personally, but also morally. In a situation where some must suffer for others to live, how does she choose a side?Complete
The Love of Aphrodite - Book 1
Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty is forced into an unwanted marriage the very evening she emerges from the sea. While Hephaestus is not terrible to her, she can't help but be enticed by his forbidden brother, Ares, and the other Gods who send her longing glances. Will she settle for Hephaestus or will she search for more for her own love story? *This story follows along some of Aphrodite's romances while married to Hephaestus. This story will not be a perfect timeline but will however, follow along a rough timeline according to my other book, Hades and Persephone.* *Also, Aphrodite has her faults. A fair amount of faults in fact! If you know her mythology she turns out to be a very vengeful, self-centred, and self-involved Goddess, but this story is all about her slowly progressing throughout her marriage to Hephaestus. A sequel will follow beyond once this marriage ends.* *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.Complete

Here is her full journey of fighting for the love of her life she didn't even know she wanted. *Read "The Wrath of Aphrodite", sequel to "The Love of Aprhodite," for Aphrodite's point of view.Complete

War of the Nymphs
For centuries, the Nymphs-spirit guardians of forests, rivers, and mountains-lived unseen among mortals, guiding growth, healing wounds, and protecting sacred lands. But now, the world has changed. Forests burn for profit. Rivers run black with poison. Mountains are torn apart for stone and oil. When a sacred grove is destroyed to build a colossal kingdom fortress, the Dryads declare war. Their wrath awakens the long-forgotten Elder Nymph Queens, primal beings as old as Gaia herself. Nature begins to fight back-trees uproot themselves like warriors, rivers rise like serpents, storms roar with vengeance. Caught in the middle of this divine uprising are three legendary heroes reborn: Heracles, Perseus, and Achilles
Elemental

Whoever dared to harm any living creature of the forest would face the wrath of Ceres, or worse, her nymphs.Complete
