Anna lives in a world where by the time they turn eighteen, every man and woman must have a beast bond. Those of them left unbonded are cast out of the city, deemed violent and insane; for if even a rat will not lower itself to bond with you, you must be the lowest of the low.
Anna has lived a simple, easy life as the part of one of the most powerful families in the land. Each member of her family had bonded mighty rare beasts, a sign of great power. It boosted them through society's ranks. Her father had bonded with one of the last of the unicorns. Her brother, a manticore. Her mother, a great eagle. Even her adopted sister bonded with a lion.
But as her eighteenth birthday approaches, and with no beast having choose her, she must make a choice. Stay, and bring shame upon her and her family...
Or leave the city on her own terms.
Striking out across the Ashlands, Anna will discover an adventure she wasn't looking for, and a prophesy she has stumbled into the middle of.
Can she bring two species who once slaughtered each other together to save themselves? Can she win this battle? Or the ones ahead?

When The Moon Chose Fire
Some bonds are forged by destiny. Others are born in fire. On the eve of her twentieth year, Lunara Moonsylph steps into the ancient Sanctuary to face the test she's trained for her entire life: bonding with a dragon. In a family where strength is everything and her father sees her as a disappointment, failure would mean more than disgrace-it would mean she was right to doubt herself. But when a long-lost, fireborn dragon-Solmara, born of starlight and wildfire-chooses Lunara, the realm trembles. Their bond is unlike anything seen in generations... and it awakens something inside her that should have stayed buried. Whispers follow her now. The moon sings in her blood. A mark appears beneath her skin-ancient, sacred, and impossible. She is Moonblessed. A descendant of a forgotten lineage the realm tried to erase. Watching her from the shadows is Rowan Duskbane-a deadly dragon rider bound to a creature of darkness and flame. He trusts no one, especially not a girl who threatens everything he was taught to believe. But as fate twists their paths together, neither can deny the ancient pull between them... or the prophecy tying their bloodlines to the fate of the realm. As fire and moonlight collide, secrets will burn, loyalties will fracture, and a forgotten war will rise again. Because when the moon chooses fire- the world is never the same

Raised among werewolves in the packhouse full of true mates, Danny is enchanted with the concept of finding a soulmate, a person created only to love and cherish him.

Ten years ago, once a merciless and feared hunter of his clan, Terry Nightingale disappeared and was slowly forgotten. Unrecognized, he now works in the bar close to the Howl Pack, keeping to himself with the intention to stay away from trouble for the rest of his life.

From that night there is no turning back and Terry has to deal not only with the consequences of his decision, his past knocking, and upcoming danger but also with letting someone in and opening his heart, a heart he locked years ago.

DARK HORIZON
A realm on the brink of war. A bond that threatens to consume them both. Cora's life takes a dangerous turn when she's thrust into a world of secrets and magic. Mistaken for a fae, her blood is thought to hold the power to restore balance to a crumbling realm. The first thing she learns when she's captured: never trust a dragon. Ash has always known what it means to be feared. He comes from the Third Kingdom, the only realm where dragons remain awake inside their bonded. Considered little better than beasts, the people of the Third live in isolation, training to control the instincts and will of the creature that lives inside them. Alone in the Outlands, he never expected to find a fae. Especially not one like her. When her cry shatters the forest, he understands the instinct that drives him to her side. What he does not anticipate is how fiercely he will have to fight the beast that already sees her as its own. With witches whispering of prophecy and a dark king determined to bring about a new era of ruin, they must choose: fight the fate that binds them or risk becoming the very force that brings the realm to ruin. Because the longer they travel together, the harder it becomes to tell where Ash ends and the dragon begins.
Gifted to the Alpha (SAMPLE) Amazon
Forget what you know about the fairytales of werewolves. There's no such thing as a moon goddess, there's no such thing as mates. Wolves are animals cruel, mean, and ferocious. The law can't touch them. The world leaves them alone. They govern their own. That's what I was thought and so far all has been true. What I didn't know was that my little town had a tradition. The harvest was established to create peace between species, every year a girl is offered to the Alpha. I've gone, and luckily never been selected. My future is bright and my thirst for knowledge wins without doubt. Only, I was gifted to the Alpha, a piece offering given to leave the town alone. Presented to him a slave, gifted to an animal. My mother cried, my sister chastised, while I lied. My future is gone but my family is safe. That's all that matters for today, but tomorrow is another story. So tell me.....What happens when the big bad Alpha grows attached?

It Took a Moon or Two (A Werewolf Love Story)
I turn eighteen in six days and I still haven't met my bonded. Usually, you find your bonded when you're kids. You have your mating ceremony when you're sixteen, and by the time you're eighteen, you join your male mate in his pack. And you have a bunch of pups and live happily ever after with the other half of your soul that the gods have blessed you with. I still don't have a bonded. I turn eighteen in six days, and I have never even felt the pull of a bonded nearby. That makes me weird. What's weirder? I'm Ferris Grey, daughter to the fierce leader of the Silver Claw Pack, Griffin Grey, and his wife and the Luna of the pack, Molly Grey. So... In the wolf world, I guess I'm a pretty big deal. I didn't think I was ever going to meet my bonded, but then I met Lucas. And nothing was ever the same again. Oh, and there are a bunch of bad guys, some weird blood magic, and a lottttt of sex. What can I say? It's your average American love story after all.
