In the wake of a war between the Fair Folk and his kingdom, a young prince and his companions must find the seven shards of Excalibur to restore the sword and save his kingdom from certain peril.
* * *
When an Unseelie assassin attempts to take the life of a human king, what was once a thirty-year cold war threatens to become an all-out battle between the Fair Folk and the kingdom of Venedotia. Kit, the scorned second prince, finds himself caught in the middle of it when he meets a druid, who shows him a vision that tears apart everything he thought to be true. Alongside a Lady Knight, a Seelie princess, a foreign thief, and that dreadfully handsome Unseelie assassin, the two of them must embark on a journey to find the seven shards of Excalibur, to bring the sword back to its former glory and stop this war before it turns into something much deadlier.

Ash and Blood
A kingdom sold. A prince forgotten. A woman whose fire might be the end of him... or his salvation. Thorian under the alias Corrin, the last heir of a fallen house, lives in the shadow of his burned past, hidden behind a false name and the armor of the knightly order that raised him. When fate places him in the path of a silver-haired stranger with fire behind her eyes, he expects trouble. He doesn't expect her to change everything. Loona is sharp-tongued, guarded, and dangerous and hiding a secret of her own. As kingdoms stir and ancient powers awaken, Thorian finds himself torn between duty and desire, drawn to a woman he barely understands and haunted by a legacy he can't ignore. But secrets have teeth, and the deeper they fall into war, prophecy, and blood, the harder it becomes to tell who is saving who and who is damning them both. Loyalties will be tested. Love will be twisted. And before the heir can reclaim his crown, he must first decide what kind of king and man he's willing to become. Note: I am trying to avoid most pitfalls that seems to be in every fantasy story lately and make it more relatable to the reader when able. Some pitfalls may be unavoidable though. Also, I only use AI for editing, art and world building assistance. The eventual goal is to hire an actual editor and artist to eliminate it entirely. That being said I don't have any issues with anybody using AI as long as they don't ghostwrite with it.

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? The book cover was painted by me. :) Content warning: violence, gore, explicit sexual content, mentions and depictions of death, grief, emotional manipulation/abuse, suicidal ideation, and indoctrination.Complete
The Art of Courts and Lies (Book 1 in The Gifted Trilogy)
Ice flooded my veins as the realization of who he was hit me. It must have been evident on my face because the man in front of me let out a dark laugh. "Oh dear, you didn't realize you were talking to a royal, did you darling?" he crooned. Not just any royal. Kesserian Cinis. The recently coronated king and ruler over the Ember Court. I forgot how to breathe, my mind whirring as it tried to figure out how I could have been so stupid as to let this happen. *************************************************** Wren Heatherfield is on the run. Having turned 18, she is now in danger of becoming selected for the Garner, a deadly game in which the six kings who rule over her continent take eighteen non-magical girls and make them fight for their lives. But as she tries to avoid the game by running away with her best friend and her sister, she consequently finds herself doomed to be a competitor in the 246th Garner. But the Garner isn't the only thing capable of killing her. In a castle surrounded by kings with dark powers and girls fighting for their lives, she may find that the politics of royalty can be just as deadly as their games. No one can be trusted in a palace full of monsters and, if Wren has any hopes of survival, she may have to become one herself.Complete

Highest Ranking: #160 in Fantasy Excerpt: "The talisman was a long, curved piece of gold, inlaid with small diamonds along the edges. It was almost like a boomerang, except it was smaller and had ornate carvings of old Pagan runes on it that could, unfortunately, no longer be read by any man or woman still walking on Earth. Par quickly picked up everything that had fallen out of his bag before he threw it on his back saying "grab on," and extended his hand towards mine. I rolled my eyes at his dramatic speech and took his offered hand." *This wonderful cover was created by @holmesfapel - check out the stories there too!!!Complete

• Book 1 of the Vertora Saga • **Part 1 under editing ** **Part 2 coming soon** Haunted by a stolen past and hunted by a ruthless Unseelie court intent on transforming humanity into an army of darkness, Amaris battles through a war-ravaged world with only a fugitive vampire and a band of misfits as her allies, determined to reclaim her memories and protect humanity from a monstrous fate. *** Two years. That's how long Amaris has wandered the war-ravaged Frozen Plane, haunted by memories she can't reach and a power she doesn't understand. With monsters lurking in every shadow and Unseelie patrols tightening their grip since the Rogue Court's invasion, survival is a battle--and the ones hunting her aren't just after blood. They want what lies dormant within her. When a skirmish forces her path to cross with Mordecai--a brooding vampire with a blade in his hand and vengeance in his veins--they strike a reluctant alliance.

As the Frozen Plane trembles under the threat of war and ancient powers begin to stir, Amaris is running out of places to hide. The Unseelie are closing in. Her past is clawing to the surface. And the vampire she shouldn't trust might be the only one willing to bleed for her. The truth is coming, the kind that tears worlds apart.
