In a world reduced to ash and silence, survival is brutal, but loneliness is worse. Solara thought she'd been running from ghosts of her own mind-until she met Altan, the stranger who became her anchor in the ruins. Together they build fragile comfort in a shattered city... but something in the dark has found them.
It watches. It waits.
And Altan knows more than he's telling.
As love blooms in the wreckage, secrets fester, and the thin line between safety and terror begins to unravel. Because in this world, survival isn't just about food and shelter-it's about trust. And the shadows never stop watching.
"You can outrun the sun. You can't outrun what waits for it to set."

The Crown of Roses
They threw me into the Assembly as a pawn. Now there's blood on the carpet, betrayal in every whisper, and two men who could destroy me - or save me. Survival is no longer about politics. It's about who I trust with my life. -------------------------------------------------------------- Mela Avenira enters the marble halls of power with ideals sharper than her heels-only to discover that survival is its own form of politics. A rising star forced to carry a bill she never wrote, she learns fast that silence can cut deeper than words, and every glance hides a threat. Especially the gaze of Vice-Chairman Daniel Soren: steady, unreadable, and far too dangerous to want. But danger doesn't always wear a suit. Adrien Bardin, her quiet protector, steps into her life, and suddenly Mela is caught between the man who sees through her and the man who shields her from the world. Between ambition and desire, loyalty and betrayal, she must choose carefully-because in these chambers, love is a liability, and power is poison. -------------------------------------------------------------- First book -------------------------------------------------------------- Romance and Political Drama/Thriller -------------------------------------------------------------- Editing and writing in progress.

Perfectly Wicked
She married his brother when she should've chosen him. Now she's divorced, and he's back... older, colder, and the only man who's ever known how to fix her when she's broken. Tessa thought she knew her life-wife, mother, doing her best to hold it all together. But when her marriage shatters, she's thrown into a storm of secrets, obsession, and manipulation that threatens to consume her. And just when the darkness feels unbearable, Ace-her husband's estranged brother-returns in the middle of the night, stirring feelings she can't ignore and memories she never expected. Whispers of missing women, a past that won't stay buried, and a web of lies tighter than she ever imagined force Tessa to question everything-her sanity, her safety, and the people closest to her. Dark, addictive, and impossible to put down, this is a story of love turned lethal, betrayal twisted into power, and the strength it takes to survive when your whole world becomes an illusion.

And now, even if heaven came calling-he'd rather burn than let her go.
