Evil never wins. At least, that's what General Liora Vexleyr's ancestors told her.
But when Kaerhya's council signs a desperate treaty with their longtime enemy, Zavaryn, Liora's world shatters. Stripped of her command and offered as a pawn, she must marry Cassian Ravaryn - the exiled Ash Prince whose name is whispered with fear and hatred across the land.
Bound by a fragile alliance forged in blood and betrayal, Liora and Cassian stand on opposite sides of a war neither wants but both must navigate. She is the fierce general raised to destroy everything he represents. He is the fallen heir wielding shadows to reclaim a crown that was stolen from him.
As grudges burn hotter than old battle scars, Liora must decide if the man behind the Ravaryn name is the enemy she's trained to kill... or the unexpected key to her own survival.
In a world where peace is a lie, and loyalty is currency, love may be the deadliest weapon of all.

The Beast
HANNAH I've spent my entire twenty-one years on this earth in the background. Walked over by friends. Family. Strangers. And I didn't see a problem with it; I'd rather nobody pay attention to me. It was safer that way. Easier. Until I got the wrong kind of attention. Lev Somov caught me running from an impromptu crime I was committing against my ex-boyfriend, and in that moment, he somehow decided I was worth giving his attention to. All the bad kinds of attention. Next thing I know, he's watching over me, hijacking my job and becoming my client. And then he takes things above a level I never thought possible. He is a monster, incapable of feeling any type of remorse or guilt for anyone and anything, including me. All I can hope for is that I make it out of this obsession alive. LEV This life wasn't meant for me, but now that he's gone, it's mine for the taking. And no one is going to stop me. I've shown my loyalty through blood, and I make no plans to change my future. Especially not for the little kukolka I found stumbling into the wrong alleyway. I'll take my time before I break her. And then, the Dynasty will be mine.Complete

His Last Vow
"If they dare take you from me, I will burn every crown, every kingdom, until nothing remains but what is mine." . . . . . . Seraphine Valemont has lived her life in gilded cages - trained to obey, to marry, to be the perfect heir. Her destiny is a royal marriage to Prince Alaric of Aerden, a union meant to secure peace, not love. Every choice is made for her, every word measured, every desire forbidden. Then comes Sir Cassian Dareth, her personal knight - a man of shadows and steel, whose loyalty is absolute, and whose presence awakens a dangerous fire within her. Forbidden, intoxicating, and relentless, their connection grows in stolen moments behind palace walls, where a single glance could spell ruin. The prince is polished, commanding, and ready to claim what he believes is rightfully his. But no crown, no command, no army can stand against the storm Cassian has vowed to unleash for her. Bound by duty, torn by desire, and facing a world that will never forgive them, Seraphine must decide whether to follow the path laid out for her... or risk everything for a love that could destroy them both.Complete

Seraphine, who had spent her life healing the wounded and tending to the sick, never imagined she would be thrust into the heart of a royal scandal.

As she became the center of court gossip, Seraphine found herself caught between the love of a man who defied his station and the dangerous obsession of Princess Avaria, who would stop at nothing to claim Kastiel for herself. While Kastiel battles foreign invaders, he is also forced to fight against the web of lies, betrayal, and envy that threaten to tear his world apart. With Seraphine's life hanging in the balance and the kingdom's future uncertain, Kastiel must confront not only the enemies at his doorstep but the haunting truth that love, above all, may be the war that leaves him broken beyond repair.

The killer princess and a snob
In the glittering heart of the Virellan Empire, politics is bloodsport and power is seduction. Princess Liora Valen, heir to the throne and secretly the Empire's most lethal assassin, walks a knife's edge between duty and desire. Trained from childhood to eliminate threats to the crown, she has become a whisper in the dark-feared, revered, and utterly alone. But everything shifts when the charming and insufferable Lord Cassian Thornwall-a nobleman too clever for his own good and far too arrogant for hers-discovers her secret. Cassian, a known social snob with a scandalous wit and a past cloaked in mystery, should be her next target. Instead, he becomes her reluctant ally... and her most dangerous distraction. Thrown into a conspiracy that could shatter the Empire from within, Liora and Cassian must navigate palace intrigue, buried secrets, and forbidden passion. But while one is trained to kill and the other trained to charm, neither is prepared for what happens when masks fall-and hearts are exposed. In a world where crowns are forged in fire and loyalty is a weapon, can a killer princess and an arrogant noble survive each other long enough to save the realm?Complete
