Synopsis
His father fell in war. His mother was lost to grief. At just twelve years old, Prince Kaelen inherits a crumbling throne and a kingdom on the brink of collapse.
There are no legends to guide him. No magic to save him. Only fire-forged trials, ruthless enemies, and a world that sees him as a boy too young to lead.
But kings aren't born. They're built. In the silence of grief, in the weight of duty, in the choices no child should ever face-that is where kings are made.
When Kings Are Made.

The Crown of Ash
Kaelen never imagined that a single artifact could change the fate of the world. When he discovers the Ember Crown, a powerful relic of fire and temptation, he is thrust into a battle not just for survival, but for his very soul. The crown grants unimaginable power-but every burst of flame comes with a cost. Its whispers tempt him toward domination, its energy tests his restraint, and its hunger threatens to consume everything he holds dear. Joined by a band of warriors, mages, and scouts-including the fierce Lira, the wise Fenric, the radiant healer Mira, and the cunning twins, Ryn and Elara-Kaelen must face Smoke, a shadowy enemy determined to seize the crown for his own dark ambitions, and the Black Hunter, a relentless predator stalking the battlefield. From the scorched plains to the heart of enemy fortresses, Kaelen's journey is one of fire, strategy, and moral choices. Every battle, every short breath, every flicker of flame tests his mastery, courage, and resolve. Will he succumb to the crown's seductive power-or rise above it to protect those he loves? In a world where fire can destroy or illuminate, the choice is his. The crown is his. And the ashes will tell his story. My first book (The Shadows Follow Me) will continue, as I have just been working on a Fantasy book.Complete
The Summoner's Legacy
Kaelen, a young half elf boy, was born in the Kingdom of Eldralis a land full of magic and monsters and races of all shapes and sizes. Growing up with his human mother, he wondered greatly about his father and what he was doing in the world beyond their little village. But all of that changes soon when on his 16th birthday, Kaelen was given a box belonging to his father that held a deck of magical cards. At first they seems like normal cards, but after a dangerous encounter with bandits, he discovers they're more than just cards, they're conduits of sorts to summon various creatures and he's the only one in the world who can summon them. Now with this new found knowledge of his legacy, Kaelen sets out on a journey to the sorcerer school known as The Eldralis Academy. Armed with his cards and his readiness to learn, he will go through trials and tribulations to uncover secrets to not only his school, but his father as well.Complete
Embers and Thorns
For centuries, the fae have whispered of dragons with hatred in their hearts-and fire in their veins. For just as long, dragons have remembered the betrayal of the fae, whose beauty hides barbed lies and cold magic. Prince Kaelen of the Thornwild Court is the Fae Queen's deadliest weapon-graceful, merciless, and bound by centuries of blood and ice. Trained to charm and kill in equal measure, he hides his hunger beneath a smile sharp enough to cut steel. High King Theron of the Drakari Dominion is fire made flesh. A dragon shifter born of war and wrath, he rules a crumbling empire from a throne of obsidian-and trusts no one, especially not the fae. When Kaelen is sent as a reluctant emissary to Theron's volcanic kingdom, political tension ignites into something far more volatile. Sparks fly-of anger, of lust, of a desire neither can afford. What begins as a clash of tempers and blades quickly becomes a dangerous game of stolen glances, scorching nights, and forbidden craving. But fire and thorns were never meant to entwine. And love may cost them both their crowns... and their lives. He is ice and shadow. He is fire and fury. Together, they'll set the world ablaze.

Abyssal
(Book 1 of the Abyssal Series) The day that Kai learns that he's half-human, half-merman and that he's the key to ending a 100-year-old war, is also the day that the entire ocean learns of his existence. For twenty-seven years his family had kept him hidden from the world, but now the strongest, most dangerous merman in all the seven seas knows about Kai, and he's coming to the surface for him. To ensure victory, King Marius the Conqueror must capture the half-breed prince of Astria, his nation's greatest enemy, and claim him as his Mate in order to absorb his power before he learns to use it. There's only one problem: there's nothing Marius hates more than humans -not even an Astrian- and Kai is both those things. But when Marius sees the beautiful Kai and clashes swords with him, the cold-blooded king's blood begins to boil for the very first time. Perhaps he can tolerate Kai long enough to fuck him and steal his power. When a dark, handsome, sword-wielding stranger attacks Kai in his home only hours after discovering his heritage, instead of running, Kai fights even though he knows he's no match. Defeated, Kai is kidnapped to a world he never knew existed and is held prisoner against his will. Thrust into a secret, dangerous aquatic world, Kai must learn to navigate swimming with a tail instead of legs and avoid a powerful, possessive King's advances if he wants to save his newly-discovered mer-people from annihilation.

When storms collide
In the ancient realm of Thalandor, peace has always hung by a fragile thread. Two kingdoms-bound by blood, yet divided by betrayal-now stand on the brink of war. Prince Kaelen of the North, a warrior forged in ice and iron, carries the legacy of his ancestors: honor above all. Opposite him stands Lord Aric of the South, a man whose cunning is matched only by his blade, burdened with the shadows of his father's sins. Once sworn brothers, now bitter rivals, they meet beneath storm-filled skies-lightning crackling like the gods themselves are watching. The rain washes over their armor, but not their hatred. Each believes his cause to be just. Each is certain the other must fall. Yet, as thunder roars above, both men sense a greater force stirring in the storm-an ancient power long forgotten, waiting to be unleashed. Their clash will not only decide the fate of kingdoms, but awaken a darkness that neither sword nor crown can control. Because sometimes, the fiercest battles are not against each other... but against the storm withinComplete
