LeyBinder is a series depicted in the Realm of Elderwyn, a once united continent and empire where the mortal races of men, elves and dwarves live in peace and harmony... But was shattered by the fires of a great civil war and conflict after the death of the great and wise Emperor, Ravyn Asterwood.
The series tells the story of Valerine White, an orphaned girl studying to become a full fledged mage, earn a living through magic and buy her freedom from the White family who "adopted" her to become a maid at the family's inn business - but little did she know that the intricate fabric of fate will set her in an adventure of her lifetime...
...A journey full of discovery and danger as she navigates a path riddled with factions, assassins, spell work and a threat that could destroy a kingdom and drive the mortal races of Elderwyn to extinction...
As tides of Shadowborn from the Ever-Shrouded North rip the very fabric of reality, Valerine, with the help of friends and allies, must uncover the truth behind her past and embrace her identity as the last heir to the Asterwood Bloodline, the only mortal lineage capable of controlling mana at will - the Last of the LeyBinders.
Will Valerine be able to master the powers of her bloodline in time to prevent the Shadows from consuming the land?

Queen of the Ravaged
In a world devastated by a century-old virus that reanimates the dead into something far worse, survival is a rare and fragile hope. Among the few immune survivors is Ava, the Princess of Theris, a small settlement in Southeast Asia. Her people struggle to rebuild amidst the ruins of a broken world, but survival comes at a steep cost. The King of Eldis holds the key to their future. With advanced technology, resources, and rumored cures, Eldis could be the salvation Ava's people desperately need. But when the King sends out a summons for a queen, Ava faces an impossible choice: risk everything by marrying a man surrounded by whispers of both monstrous deeds and appearance, rebellion and numerous assassination attempts, or turn away and potentially doom her people. In this shattered world, Ava must decide whether to sacrifice her freedom and her principles for the survival of her people, all while uncovering the secrets of a kingdom that may hold the power to save-or destroy-what remains of humanity.Complete
Spell Book & Scandal
Shelby King is tired of living in her sister's shadow. Shelby's a scribe, like her mom, and everyone expects her to write spells for her sister, the way her mom always has for her dad. But Shelby's spells fail spectacularly, and by the time she's a sophomore, Christina won't touch them with a ten-foot-pole; their parents aren't much better. Shelby is fed up, and she decides to show the world she doesn't care if she isn't as good as her stuck-up sister, or as talented as their powerful parents. In fact, she decides it's time to break all the rules, magical and otherwise, and she starts sneaking out to meet Jeremiah Smallwood, the second-best caster in school at illegal pop-up spell battles around town. She may not be able to scribe for him, but she doesn't mind letting him think that she could; Shelby's been half in love with Miah as long as she can remember, but he's never paid attention to her until now, and she's not going to risk her chances worrying about a pesky thing like the truth. But when Christina rats her out to their parents, Shelby can't control her anger, and words come pouring out of her that she can't take back even if she wanted to, threatening Christina's future...and Shelby's own chances with Jeremiah. It'll take more magic than Shelby's ever dreamed of to set things right, but no scribe has that much magic...right?Complete

𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
Beneath the roots lies a realm unspoken, where shadows breathe and rivers run black. A single step too far unravels the veil between worlds, turning play into curse, and innocence into exile. Beyond the roots, the air itself conspires, forests whisper of forgotten kings, and demons walk as both beasts and men. Yet above that abyss rises a kingdom of warmth, a fragile jewel cradled in sunlight. Its streets awaken each dawn in a riot of color: banners ripple, stalls spill with fruit and cloth, and fountains laugh with crystal spray. Children dart through blooming gardens, their laughter ringing louder than bells, while elders sit beneath arching roots, telling stories of brighter days. Here, joy is stitched into life itself. The baker greets with sugared bread, the blacksmith's hammer sings with the town musicians, and couples dance when lanterns glow like fallen stars. Festivals turn nights into oceans of song, where drums thunder and torches paint the sky in fire and gold. In this place, hope does not hide-it parades, it feasts, it laughs. The people call their home a sanctuary, untouched by sorrow, where each day begins with promise and ends in peace. To live here is to believe, if only for a moment, that darkness is nothing more than a distant dream. But beneath their feet, the roots stretch into silence. For every blossom hides its shadow, and every feast masks a silence that waits. The kingdom may be a cradle of joy, but its foundation drinks from the same soil where nightmares stir. Here, survival is no gift. Every choice is a bargain, every path a trial. What seems human may wear another face, and what seems monstrous may hold a broken heart. Secrets buried for centuries stir in the soil, twisting destiny tighter with every breath. This is not a tale of crowns or kingdoms, but of a world where light is fragile, where hope withers, and where even the roots that bind the earth tremble before what waits below.

Eyes Like The Ocean | A Culled Crown Novella
Book 1.5 - The Culled Crown Series. A Culled Crown Novella. Ten girls. Nine bodies. One crown. If given the chance to be queen, would you take it? Viera Kevlar is goddess-touched, one of ten female heirs to the Erydian throne. She is a poisoner, the first girl in the history of the Culling to ever be blessed with such an ability. Despite her own reservations and desires, she will have to fight for the crown. She may have to die for it. If she wins the Culling by killing the other nine candidates, then she will be crowned queen of Erydia. Her family will be invited to live in the palace and her mother might have access to healers who could save her life. But to be queen, she may have to lose the one thing she cares most about-- herself. This is a novella that acts as a prequel to Monroe Benson's story--"The Culled Crown." I would suggest reading that novel before reading this one. Although this story takes place before Monroe's Culling, this novella should be read between book one and book two.Complete
