The fate of two realms rests on a single shard of truth.
Sterling Rowe is a scholar, sworn to knowledge above all else-yet burdened with a power older than her kingdom itself. When her nation teeters on the brink of ruin, she is commanded to retrieve the Mirror of Sadrian, a relic said to glimpse the future.
But the path to the mirror lies through the Shadow Real and beside a sworn enemy.
Adrian, a dragon shifter from the rival Ashen clans, would rather burn a city to rubble than kneel to a crown. Bound by oaths and old grudges, he and Sterling are forced into an uneasy alliance as they face shifting shadows, forgotten gods, and secrets that should never be unearthed.
Hatred sparks. Passion ignites. But when betrayal cuts closer than either imagined, Sterling must make an impossible choice; save herself or shatter her destiny to save her real and the dragon she swore she would never trust.
Dark fantasy.
Enemies-to-lovers.

Grim Echoes
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters? What starts as a random attack on the street stopped by two strangers quickly escalates as Maeve discovers her attackers were demons. Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's.
