She came to Ravencourt seeking work. She found a house that knew her name.
Sybil Alderton arrives at the windswept Ravencourt Manor to catalogue its fading legacy-but nothing in the house behaves as it should. The corridors breathe. The mirrors lie. And the Duke who rules the estate wears secrets like skin.
But when Sybil hears her name spoken in the dark, when a masked man enters her room and leaves no trace, she realizes her role at Ravencourt is not to record its history...
It is to reclaim it.
In a house where love is twisted with inheritance, and desire whispers through walls, The Midnight Heir is a gothic, erotic suspense novel of buried identities, forbidden seduction, and the terrifying power of memory.

In a town where secrets are buried deeper than the graves,one girl begins to hear them whisper. Twelve-year-old Emily Watson thought the worst had already happened the day she lost her parents. But when she moves to the eerie town of Ravenshollow-a place surrounded by forests, drenched in shadows, and whispered about in fear-her real nightmare begins. Emily starts hearing voices.

As the voices tighten their grip, Emily discovers they're tied to the town's bloody history-one soaked in tragedy, curses, and a demonic presence that never left. Now, every step she takes, every breath she draws, might not be hers anymore. And if she can't break free, the voices won't stop until they consume her entirely. Drenched in psychological horror, supernatural mystery, and gothic tension, Voices is a chilling descent into a haunted mind-and the haunted town that feeds it. ---Complete

Unholy Defiance: Part One Of The Unholy Saga
Yasmine's life was meant to be an ordinary one. Drawn to the small town she spent endless summers in as a child, she returned to SilverPeak to care for her sick grandmother. But even after her granny died, she refused to leave, succumbing to the mysterious pull the town had on her. The peace and quiet, however, was soon shattered with the arrival of the Ravencourts. The mansion on the hill was shrouded in secrets, its occupants shunned as soon as they returned to their home town. Bodies littered the forest that lay beneath the mansion, throats clawed out and flesh torn to shreds, and everyone in town was dead set on blaming them. Yet as Yasmine started investigating, she soon found herself tangled in a web of forbidden knowledge. Her feelings for Marcus, the owner of the Ravencourt manor, were clouding her judgement, and her bouts of memory loss were leading her to question her own sanity. Murder, mysteries, and betrayal all came wrapped in the most tantalizing of packages, the happy ending she was never meant to have.Complete
SEX AND SINS (The Alpha's Forbidden Claim)
WARNING: MATURE CONTENT. RATED 18+. 90% STEAMY Selene never expected the thick darkness her life was about to plunge into. A young, new-adult wolf raised under the strict expectations of her aging father and the proud legacy of her ancestors, she's lived by every rule-rules meant to keep her from losing to the rival dynasty threatening to claim the throne from her family, the prestigious Ravencrofts. But the one person she thought would protect her shatters her instead. Her father's cold, public humiliation cuts deeper than any enemy's blade, all because of the one flaw she can't control-her heat. It surges too often, too powerfully, even outside mating season... and now it's a curse she can't escape. Broken and burning for release, Selene seeks reckless oblivion in the city's most dangerous den of demons-a forbidden club dripping with sin and shadow. There, she collides with a sinfully irresistible stranger drawn to the wild, unrestrained heat she can't hide. One night is all it takes for him to brand himself into her body and soul-a night of decadent, breathless pleasure she'll never forget. But when the haze fades, Selene learns the devastating truth. The man who consumed her? Her older sister's Alpha husband. He's already tasted her. He wants more. And he'll stop at nothing-no law, no loyalty, no taboo-to claim her completely. Now Selene is caught in a storm of forbidden desire, torn between resisting the man who could ruin her and surrendering to the sinful pull that could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than his touch... is how much she wants it.
