The King's Necklace is gone - and the reward is tempting enough to bring every scavenger, spy, and fool to Hak Ukro. A nameless mercenary with little more than a stamped quest and an empty pouch follows a torn paper clue into back-alleys, palace halls, and a sea-bound island where bandits keep darker trophies than gold.
Tasked by a weary king and watched by a cold-calculated crown prince, he must outwit thieves, survive a ruthless camp, and unravel who ordered the theft - or die trying. Secrets hide in the shadows of the throne; the necklace is only the beginning.

Robber Royale: Fairytale of a Thief and a Scoundrel
The notorious Fox and his (dashing) band of thieves and scoundrels, known for their wit, speed, and ability to disappear without a trace, have worked hard in the last few years to carve out a name and a refuge for themselves in the war-torn chaos of the Midlands. But with thinning resources and ruthless Captain of the Guard Uldien's personal vendetta, not only against Fox but seemingly all of the Midlands, the last thing Fox needs is a distraction. Gaelian, the opposite of a thief and a scoundrel (and just about everything else in the Midlands for that matter), is a distraction. A determined distraction. One who holds both the key to Fox's past and the burden of a dark secret that affects herself, Fox, and the fate of the entire Two Kingdoms. But will she be able to convince Fox to care? *ehem* (Meaning about the secret...of course. *winkwink*) Danger, adventure, clever banter, heroics, true love, a curse, and a happily ever after.

Royal Flush
They stole my future and branded me a criminal. Now, the Empress demands my blade-no name, no protection, just a silent war waged from the shadows. If I want a life worth living, I must carve it myself. Asuhara always believed he'd die behind bars. He once dreamed of joining the Royal Guard, but that hope was destroyed the day he was framed, branded a criminal, and locked away. The Empire made him its prisoner, his days reduced to routine and silence, his reputation stained by a lie. Yet deep within his soul lurks a demon of ages past-an old terror that once haunted kingdoms, now trapped inside a boy stripped of his future. When a scarred warden offers him an escape at a terrible cost, Ace is thrust into a secret war no one will acknowledge. Forced to operate from the shadows as part of the Thurrian Covert Detachment, he must serve an empire that denies his existence. As unseen foes gather and hidden agendas clash, Ace must harness both his untapped potential and the dark presence that shares his fate. If he prevails, he may claim a purpose beyond the lies that bound him. If he fails, he'll remain another silent casualty, forgotten by history and devoured by the demon that lurks within. Warning: Contains dark themes and varying levels of gore.

Trials of Gideon Book 1: The Cursed Blade
Gideon Saint is usually in trouble. It's his pastime to get involved in epic quests throughout history, namely the Middle Ages. Once again, he's run afoul of the Templars, and ancient organization of Wizards. This time, they are offering him the chance to right old wrongs, by retrieving a mysterious cursed blade. 1403 awaits. Sequel Series to Last Knights of Cambia series, and the Days of the Dead trilogy, ergo it contains spoilers for those. Similar narrative style and tone, that is if you want English history explained like Lemony Snicket, then this is for you. Ahem. Living people die, dead people live. Swords. Epic Battles. Mysterious riddles. Coded messages. True love. Traitors. Murder. Found families. Yes, Henry V is here and he is awesome. Did we mention swords? Tombs are described in loving detail. People are not. Yes you may learn something about the battle of Shrewsberry but that's a risk you're going to have to take. Content/Trigger Warning: A battle is depicted at length, relatively graphic blood/gore associated with that. A character is injured severely and must twice undergo surgery on page, this is fairly graphic and may be disturbing to some readers. Brief innuendo. Some brief strong language. Some mild sexuality. Catholicism is discussed. All disturbing scenes are usually forewarned, that is it's clear what is going to happen. Some brief peril. Some light disturbing humor relating to murder. PG-13 quality stuff, be aware of your mental state and seek support as needed.Complete

But as the lines blur between duty and vengeance, love and manipulation, both must navigate a twisted web of betrayal, power, and a truth that could shatter everything. As their paths collide again, both will have to choose between the past that shaped them-and a future that might just ruin them. Because in a world ruled by secrets, the most dangerous weapon isn't a bullet. It's the heart. Thank you for sticking around. I hope you read till the end.

He begins to hear the voice behind her silence. But love is dangerous in a world like theirs. Because secrets are buried deep within the castle walls. And neither of them truly knows the other's past... or what their union is truly meant to ignite. He was forged to destroy. She was taught to endure. Together, they may either save a kingdom...or burn it to ash. When sword meets silence, when fear meets fury... what will be born of it? What destiny awaits when the fearsome knight's fury meets the silent strength of the quiet princess? Together, can they rewrite the fate that neither could face alone? *note~i do not own any pictures/images that are uploaded throughout the entirety of this book...all rights go to the rightful owners*

His current conquest is a fabled wizard, the now legendary Gideon Saint, of Wales. And Kit may have just met his match. Sequel series to 'Last Knights of Cambria', with some reoccurring characters. Ahem, good people die, bad people live, everyone is inexplicably gay. Robbery. Haunted tombs. Murder. Revenge. Sick burns. Chaos. Drama. What's not to love? Yes, you may learn something about history but that's a risk you're going to have to take. Yes Henry V does show up and yes he's still awesome. Richard the Lionheart is also in this one. This pick-your-problematic-English-monarch-to-simp-for game is getting harder. Trigger/Content Warnings: Some blood and gore. Fantasy violence. Some brief profanity, as well as a couple of homophobic slurs. Slightly more graphic and violent than the Last Knights of Cambia series, though nothing overt. Some mild sensuality, two character kiss. It is discussed characters have kissed. Another two characters embrace in what could be perceived as a romantic manner. Family/domestic violence that may be upsetting to some readers.Complete
