The Fallen Throne
Alaina wishes to be more than a mere icon for her kingdom, believing a princess should be much more than a fragile lady in a dress. The king wants no more than for her to marry in order to succeed the throne, but she has other things in mind -- such as her thirst for freedom and adventure. But when one of the neighbouring kingdoms demands that it's time for a change in the land of Asteria, her entire kingdom is shaken. To worsen the situation, the king is somehow caving in to the demands irrationally. Stubbornly refusing to resign herself to the kingdom's seemingly inevitable fate, she is forced to leave her home in search of the root of the problems. Along with people of diverse backgrounds she comes to trust and a hotheaded boy with pyrokinesis named Kai, Alaina joins an uprising rebellion against the forming empire. cover design by the lovely and talented Tris_fire (Prev.

The world did in fact not end with a bang, but a whisper. Nothing was left but a suffocating stillness. The air was thick with ash, the remnants of humanity left to crawl through a poisoned wasteland. The whispers of those we had lost haunted us. The line between predator and prey had began to blur. The dead did not rest but it was the survivors that plunged the earth into darkness. I had grew to watch the accustomed look of desperation between my group. Haunted by my past I became a distant memory to those I once looked to for hope. They just didn't understand that biding time wasn't a blessing, it was a curse. And I realised, as the sky grew white-the end was never the worst part; it was what came after. ---------- Book series: Book 1- In the Afterlife Book 2- Ashes of tomorrowComplete
Absolution
Julian Cross believes he is in control-of his life, his reputation, and the narratives people try to build around him. To him, therapy is not a necessity, but a strategy. A calculated step toward refinement. Toward proving that he is not the version of himself others have chosen to remember. But beneath the surface of measured conversations and clinical silence, something begins to shift. Patterns emerge. Questions sharpen. And as Julian revisits the moments everyone else refuses to forget, a quiet, unsettling realization takes hold-some stories don't fade... they wait. And someone, somewhere, may be waiting too. As perception tightens around him and past encounters begin to echo louder than before, Julian is forced into a confrontation he cannot control-not with the world, but with himself. Because the difference between misunderstanding and harm is no longer abstract, and the cost of getting it wrong is no longer just reputation-it's truth, accountability, and the fragile line between who he believes he is and who he might actually be. Tense, intimate, and psychologically suffocating, Absolution unfolds in the quiet spaces between words-where silence speaks louder than confession, and control begins to feel indistinguishable from denial. Because in the end, the most dangerous version of a man isn't the one who knows what he's done... -it's the one who's convinced himself he hasn't.Complete

Cloverlyne will do everything she must to protect her people and her family, and she has had enough of Elnorsefall crimes and her father's betrayal of the Realms. As revelations emerge through friends and secrets close to home are uncovered, she prepares to gather both old and new allies and take the fight to Elnorsefall in a final battle that will determine the future of the Realms and the surrounding galaxies for all of time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is book three of the ElnorseFall trilogy.
The Fringe Wars
War looms on the horizon... After the colonization of Mars and Europa, it took us fewer than five generations to reach beyond our solar system and discover new planets capable of supporting human life. Too far away to be governed under Earth law, the Collective was formed. Several hundred years later, the Collective has expanded to a system of six worlds. Power struggles and unequal rights have made interplanetary war all but inevitable. With rebellions arising across the Collective, three captains launch near-suicidal missions to free the oppressed fringe and reset equality across the stars. A galactic war is coming, and only an arthritic mail runner and a space pirate can stop it.Complete
