They called him 'Strongson,' and his steel was said to be blessed. Until a brutal act of betrayal shattered Paladin Darius Strongson's life, leaving him with a phantom wound of dishonor and a grim, silvered scar running through his eye.
Fleeing a past he can't outrun, Darius has chosen a new battlefield: a neutral tavern at the heart of the world's most dangerous intersection, the Three-River Hub. Here, under the watchful, scarred eye of Old Jack, Darius fights to create a true sanctuary-a place where soldiers from the Highmarsh Keep, the Ironable Citadel, and the Free Territories can sit side-by-side without drawing blood. A place where people can finally rest.
But a man who has lost his faith is a lure for the desperate. When a simple rescue mission forces Darius to pick up a weapon again, he must confront the ghosts of his betrayal and the forces hunting him.
Darius set out to build a safe place for the world. Now, he must decide if he can risk tearing down the very peace he built to finally earn his own redemption.

Eros
Eros, a world forsaken by its gods, left to be governed by kings and Magi, gifted with control over various elements. *** Some say the gods are dead. That Godswar left no victor standing. That perhaps they never wore flesh at all, and old tales are mere tales. Others say they have left this land to their creations, or merely left their bodies, and are now the living spirit of their own element, gifting and empowering their chosens. There's, however, a whisper of madness, or perhaps a jest, that the gods are alive, never ceasing to weave fate to their whims. That they will be seen once again, in time to finish Godswar. Whether it is the gods' will, or not, as the ambitions of kings and outlaws tangle with ploys of betrayal, personal vendettas, fury and passion, a war is sure to come.

Protector of the Crown
COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. ****** Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.Complete
