In the kingdom of Aetherwyn, duty and loyalty run as deep as blood. Lily Victoria Pembroke, the crown princess, is destined to rule with grace and power-but the weight of her future reign presses heavily upon her, particularly as the specter of political intrigue and assassination looms closer. Protected by the elite Order of the Argent Guard, her most trusted protector is Emery D'Ardenne, an orphan trained since childhood to defend the royal bloodline.
As time passes, their bond grows stronger, a silent understanding beneath their formal roles. Emery swore to guard the princess with her life-but her heart is torn, caught between the unspoken desire she feels for Lily and the unyielding vows she has sworn to uphold. With rival houses plotting and the kingdom's future uncertain, the two women must navigate their deepening emotions while confronting dangerous enemies and the harsh realities of royal life.
In a world of hidden dangers, shifting loyalties, and forbidden love, Lily and Emery must decide if they will sacrifice everything for each other-because when duty and love collide, there can be no turning back.

THORNS OF FIRE AND SIN
In the shattered lands of Caelum Thorne, where gods have died and monsters rule the skies, the world trembles beneath two names: Felip, Dragon King of the Cindering Depths, and Stell, the seductive mystery cursed with two souls-one wrapped in divine light, the other cloaked in infernal lust. Felip is destruction made flesh. Towering, winged, and crowned in obsidian horns, he does not ask for loyalty-he commands it. His fire burns through armies, and his possessive heart clutches tightly to the one man whose chaos rivals his own: Stell. Stell is beauty and madness, sin and sanctity. One moment an angel with silver eyes and soft lips that whisper salvation, the next-a demon with claws that crave blood and a mouth that speaks only wicked desire. His power lies in duality, and Felip is the only force that's ever dared to cage both halves. Their love? Violent. Carnal. Unstoppable. But not all bend to their rule. Pablo, the brooding Wolf King of the Moonclad North, watches with jealousy in his eyes and battle-lust in his veins. Josh, a vampiric warlord from the fallen city of Lys, plots in shadow, hungering not just for blood-but for the Dragon King's throne. And Justin, the blind Prophet, sees a vision of ruin: a war that will devour the skies, unless the lovers-fire and madness-find a way to tame the darkness in each other. But can love between monsters ever be salvation... or will it be the very flame that ends the world?Complete
