Frost Bite
A thousand years ago, Jack died in a snow storm. Or at least he should have. Now, he's just saved Josie Herrmann from the fate he should have suffered - and he doesn't know why. Now someone - someone powerful, who knows just what Jack is - is trying to use Josie to get to him. After a thousand years, Jack should not have the heart to care, particularly since with Josie comes her best friend Ryan, who is annoyingly in love with her and takes every opportunity to piss Jack off. No, Jack should not care. But "should" has never quite had the effect in his life it was meant to.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
With Love, Comes Violence
In a world where love has become a dangerous game, violence is no longer a crime-it's law. Following a global crisis that caused birthrates to plummet and society to unravel, a radical new solution was proposed: Love's Law-a decree legalizing physical combat as a means to claim romantic partners. Now, affection is fought for with fists, and relationships are forged in bruises and blood. Seventeen-year-old Bell Ignis, known in the underground arena as The Heat Riser, doesn't believe in love. Raised in a post-crisis generation, he treats the law like a joke-until a mysterious girl, a cryptic prophecy, and a looming threat known only as The Snow of Artemis pull him into a battle far bigger than the next match. As Bell navigates broken hearts, buried secrets, and brutal fights, he must confront a terrifying truth: what if love was never meant to be kind? With Love Comes Violence is a bold, unflinching debut that mixes dystopian satire, high-stakes action, and emotional reckoning. In a world where affection justifies assault and passion breeds power, the only question left is: can love survive what we've done to it?

First to Rise (Excerpt)
The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Karshok
Enslaved under alien rule, I've forgotten what kindness feels like-until my choices deliver me to the Zohra. Towering, horned, and unreadable, they are nothing like my past captors. And Karshok... he is nothing like the monsters I've known. He is fierce yet protective, distant yet impossibly gentle with me. I should fear him. I should resist him. But just as I stopped believing in salvation, he appeared-and with him, a warmth I thought I'd lost forever.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
The Journeymen
Arise Series Book 1 and Wattys 2022 Shortlist! As man has taken a step back in the world, magic, monsters, and adventure return. Modern man vs. the monsters of old who have re-entered the world. A group of men and women, the Journeymen, work to bring unity and order to a world separated by the differences that many once saw as incapable of reconciliation. With the use of magic and their skills as soldiers and lawmen, they are uniquely suited for the task of peace keeping. This story follows a small group of Journeymen. Jack Cooper is a man with one goal in mind, to create a world for his young family to have peace. Jack and his partner, the lovable and deadly veteran soldier Chuck Johnson, have challenges to face on all sides but perhaps the most daunting challenge of all is that of taking on a new apprentice.

Can she survive the trials of this savage land and in the process learn what it takes to protect the people who live in it? The Journeymen is a combination of a modern day, post-apocalyptic story with a dedication to realism and of a quest set in a world of high fantasy magic and monsters.
