Child Of The Phoenix
As heir to the kingdom of Astral, Princess Alessia Astrael is no stranger to rules - she's lived her whole life behind them. Sharp-tongued, perfectly composed, and trained to navigate the polished cruelty of court life, she's mastered the art of restraint. But beneath the surface, cracks are forming. Christian Russel, a seasoned soldier with a quiet edge and a gaze that misses nothing, is assigned as her new personal guard. He's not charming. He's not soft. He's loyal, infuriatingly calm - and completely off-limits. Their connection shouldn't deepen. But it does. What starts as tension blooms into something forbidden. A slow-burn loyalty neither of them fully understands, forged in quiet hallways, glances that linger too long, and truths spoken when no one else is listening. Yet Astral's palace is a nest of old secrets, shifting alliances, and masked intentions. And while Alessia tries to keep her heart guarded, everything around her is starting to move - including pieces far beyond her control. In a kingdom that demands perfection, desire has consequences. And love might be the most dangerous rebellion of all.
Siren Song (The Fated #1)
Iliana Katrakis couldn't care less about the will of the gods, and she's certain they feel the same way about her.

Sure, her best friend Kain is the only one who knows she's a girl, but it's a good life. The work is simple, and her shipmates are the closest thing to a family she has. Fate, however, is not on her side. A storm tosses the Airlea wildly off course. Within the day, she's stranded, alone and injured, on a foggy island known only as Inna's Cove. She's given a choice: become one of the islands' goddess blessed sirens and rescue her best friend, or take her chance with the monster-infested woods. The choice seems obvious. That is, until the mercenaries arrive. Their captain wants a siren--and not even the threat of the goddess' wrath will change his mind. **Cover by MoranaComplete
