Story Description:
In a world that blurs between dream and reality, The Distance Between Me and Home follows William Brown as he walks through a dark alley toward a house that keeps slipping away. With each step, he faces the weight of grief, memory, and the struggle to move forward. Along the way, his mother transforms into a bear, George returns as a golden light, and questions of survival, purpose, and beauty rise to the surface. It's a story about choosing which path to take-toward pain or healing-and learning that sometimes, home isn't just a place. It's a moment. A message. A memory that says: You will survive.

Book 3 in Stray Series. I don't know what happened to me that night. I don't know how I, whatever I was now, came to be. Everybody who was there claims to have no knowledge of what really transpired, urging me to remain silent and secretive. I know they're lying to me, but I don't know why. I'm different from those around me, able to do and see and know things that they cannot. I seem to have a knack for being in the right place at the right time, of knowing what to do or say to fix the problem and help those around me. So why do I still feel so alone? Why do I feel so out of place? Why do I feel so hollow and empty? I can never seem to fill the ache in my chest regardless of what I do. I seem capable of helping everyone but myself. I searched, researched, scoured every source and talked with every knowledgeable creature I could find. But even still, no one knew how or why or what I am. Until I found him. -This story has depictions of violence, SA, depression, panic attacks, gore.

Wild Magic Four: The Light Beyond Constellations- a M/M fantasy romance
*****COMPLETE***** GRIFFIN- My original escape plan had hinged on tricking a guard, and I had picked River on first sight. Until I realized who he was to me. I never wanted a mate, never wanted to have to rely on another that way, but I've found that I haven't been given much of a choice. On my own, bouncing from one group of evil men to another since the moment I was able to leave the wretched woman who raised me- a curse on her name- I never expected to find my mate while imprisoned for the only crime I didn't commit, in a land not my own, and with my bear bound and gagged. I never expected to find my mate in fierce, flirtatious, gorgeous River. Kind and gracious with a sweet heart and a habit of wearing pretty things that had my bear sitting up and taking notice, River was made for me, and I for him. He was also the man whose sole responsibility it was to guard my cell and keep me from escaping. RIVER- I've fallen in love too many times, and had my heart broken just as often. But this time, with Griffin, the man who swears he's innocent of trying to harm the Emperor, but guilty of every other crime I can think of, I feel... safe. Safe and loved and cared for. Since learning of wild mages and their mates, I've had a desire to have that kind of love. That devotion and pure need that I've seen in the eyes of the men around me. I thought I was safe with him, as his mate, but his betrayal... I'm not sure I'll survive this heartbreak. I'm not sure I'll be able to move past the soul-tearing, heart-rending realization that nothing is as I thought it was. That maybe, as much as I love him, Griffin never saw me as more than the man who held the keys to his cage. ***** The Light Beyond Constellations is a M/M bear shifter fantasy romance and is the fourth and last in the Wild Magic Series, though the Strange Magics Series is linked. Each book can be read as a standalone, but they're best read in order, if only to keep from spoilers :) *****Complete

COMPLETED - (book 2) Updated version now available on Amazon Kindle and Kindle Unlimited with an extra bonus chapter at the end! "I stood there for a second, stunned at the fact that a pack wolf had gotten in between two fighting rogues, but when I took in my first deep breath after the adrenaline had wore off I realised why. He was my mate. Crap. I stared at him for a second, taking in the huge grey wolf that was my mate before I turned tail and ran as fast as my injured leg would let me. It had already starting to heal but not enough for me to put all my weight on it. I quickly turned around to to make sure the guy hadn't caught up with me but frowned slightly when I saw that he hadn't even moved an inch from where I left him. That was weird, I thought pack wolves were all about finding their mates" ---- Blaine has lived a hard life, after all being born a rouge isn't easy, but she's getting by.
