The Hollow Throne - Book 1 : Beneath the Veil
He was sent to kill a threat. He brought her back instead. Now the Veil is shifting-and something buried is starting to wake. Nimya was supposed to be collateral. A mortal girl, found near a supernatural breach and marked by a scent not quite human. Commander Ryn of the Sentinarchs-god-born, oath-bound, and feared even by his own-should've followed protocol. Instead, he dragged her across the Veil. Now bound to a divine soldier she doesn't trust, Nimya finds herself trapped inside the Sanctum-a sacred fortress of rituals, relics, and bloodlines that see her as a threat. But something else sees her too. When Ryn touched her, the Veil stirred. Something ancient is watching from the other side. Something chained beneath the world-restless, patient, and searching for someone. As divine politics fracture and the Sanctum begins to turn, Nimya must survive a realm built to reject her... and a bond that was never meant to form. Because if the Veil falls, what's trapped beneath it won't stay buried. And gods will burn before it stops looking.Complete

Thieves of the crown
The kingdom of Orovia bleeds. Every harvest season, the Frost royals send their imperials to strip villages bare. Gold. Crops. Heirlooms. Even lives. Everything claimed in the name of the crown. Alexandra Beaumont has lost enough. When the king opens the army to new recruits, she seizes her chance. Not to serve, but to steal. Beneath the armor of a royal soldier, she hides a secret mission: infiltrate the castle, reclaim what was stolen, and return it to the people who were robbed of everything. But she is not alone. A band of outcasts forms at her side, bound by vengeance and hope. By day, they wear the king's colors. By night, they become shadows on the sea. Pirates who raid treasuries, kingdoms, and crowns themselves. Rebels carving justice out of theft. Yet betrayal stalks the rebellion as closely as the royals do.

In a world where rebellion is treason and love is forbidden, Alexandra must decide how much she's willing to sacrifice to take back a kingdom drowning in frost.

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
