In a realm ruled by a cold, immortal fae king, a rebellious human healer is captured for practicing forbidden magic. Instead of imprisonment, the king offers her a deal: pretend to be his consort during the month-long Moon Festival to prevent war with a rival fae court. As they navigate treacherous court politics and supernatural threats together, their staged passion sparks genuine desire. But as they surrender to their growing attraction, dark secrets from both their pasts-and an ancient curse-threaten not only their forbidden love but the fate of both their worlds.

The Offering
Almost a century ago, the fae discovered they could no longer bear children-and humanity paid the price. A treaty was forged: The Offering. Once every couple of decades, young fertile women are taken from their homes and delivered to the fae realm, destined to become wives for fae lords. Treasured. Trapped. Chosen. Daella always knew it could happen to her. But when the fae come, she isn't ready. And she sure as hell isn't willing.

As desire grows and loyalties are tested, Daella begins to unravel the lies behind the treaty that stole her freedom.

Life is but a Vale of Tears
[ Dark Romantasy / Mature ] The Vampyres of Gale are amid a flesh-eating pandemic, and Faerie tears are the only known cure. Livinia, a Faerie healer, joined the Human side of a Vampyre war in Nival to avoid scandal and the captivity of an arranged marriage. Upon "Liv's" return to her icy homeland, she gets put into real chains. She may have leverage, but it's not something that will set her free, at least not quickly. The Nightcaster Court is treacherous. They are rich, haughty, and powerful, but they haven't been hostile toward Faerie-kind since the "Vale of Tears" earned its name. It was before Liv's time, but it isn't any wonder why her people fled Crystal Hollows at the first sign of crisis. Liv can try bargaining for the freedom she never had, but, as a rule, the Nightcasters are fickle, cruel, and can't be trusted. To complicate things further, there's Corbin, the ailing heir - gifted, powerful, grateful for a second chance. He's everything his family is not, but a Vampyre is still a Vampyre, and love isn't love if there are chains attached to it. | ONC2025 Shortlist | - Now being expanded into a full-length novel.
