With a childhood stolen, Myra had always felt like she grew up too fast, bearing too much responsibility for a child her age. Her father's death had tossed her into a vortex of confusion and dubiety, of doubt and incertanity. The pain she felt at his memory was intense, signifying her unhealed wounds.
Covinced by a belief that the root of all her problems was her ignorance, she tries to discover her father's past, untangling the knots that have been tied on a subject left untouched for too long.
Myra refuses to live in the dark anymore, but could darkness be all she's throwing herself into?
This is where vinidictive souls sit upon crystal thrones, worshiped by their people. This is where demonic spirits rule hearts and consume spirit, mind and body. It is where phantoms and wraiths wander the mortal lands free and ghouls of the forest lurk in the shadows of moon-lit nights.
Here is a place where no one is safe, a place where all evil roams free.

Bloodline
-"All my life, I've been haunted by my past...But when we met everything changed..." After spending years in the human world, Nox Forestia must return back to her own world Onyxia, a world where magical beings like her flusrish, where fractured alliances have been made and where she left her haunting past that she now has to face. Belonging to the oldest bloodline of witches in the realm who are now lost and now the responsibility falls onto her. Returning does not only mean harnessing her powers to their full capacity and expansion, it also means confronting the trauma and darkness she left behind.

Is she ready to face her past?
Nirrin (Forestfolk, Book 3)
Nirrin spends her days in Foresthome caring for orphans, getting into trouble, and listening to other people's adventures with secret envy. Which is why following an intriguing stranger into an unknown part of the forest seemed like a good idea at the time. Nirrin doesn't expect to find her missing parents among a band of odd-looking misfits, but family is family, right? Her hopes to reclaim the kin she'd lost are challenged, however, when she uncovers their violent plot against "Normals" like her. They'll make an exception for her (Nirrin has always been great at exempting herself from rules), but doing nothing would mean endangering her friends in Foresthome. She must stop these outcasts from--who is she kidding? She's a smart-mouthed girl with no special talents. What is she going to do, talk them to death? Maybe babysitting a bunch of other orphans in Foresthome wasn't such a bad deal after all.Complete

The Shattered Weave
The Shattered Weave is a fast-paced fantasy with slow-burn romance, set in an urban setting where vampires, werewolves, and witches covertly battle for dominance, until a human unlocks secrets to the past and becomes the most sought-after creature in the supernatural world. Aidan Summers thought he had the best job any young scientist would die for: working at a state-of-the-art laboratory and doing what he loved, while getting paid handsomely too. It seems too good to be true, and he soon realises he's right, especially when Aidan learns of the restricted area he is not allowed access to. Things take a sudden turn in Aidan's life when the secret behind those locked doors is somehow connected to the unsolved case of his missing brother Gavin and even bigger secrets about his family that he had no clue about. Thrown in for good measure is the mysterious appearance of a beautiful woman with supernatural powers who claims to know him when he has never met her before. Can Aidan's life get any weirder? The answer is yes, and it's about to get a lot more dangerous, too. Mature rating for some gore and violence. Book 1 in the Splintered Soul series. Full eBook available on Amazon and is free to read on Kindle Unlimited. The 1st four unedited chapters are available to read here. Note that The Shattered Weave was previously called Back to You.

Remi's Great Escape (Forestfolk Prequel)
Before he ever met Siena, before he knew Foresthome even existed, Remi was an Aberration living under the iron-fisted rules of his tribe. Learn how a spirited and resourceful 12-year-old boy ousted his Plainsman oppressors in this prequel to the Forestfolk series. A little shoutout to maniacgirl for inspiring the title of this story. Though the events in this short story take place before Book 1 in the series, I recommend reading it AFTER you finish "Siena." I think it will be more satisfying that way, because then you'll understand the little Book 1 references I've planted here and there. Finally, the format of the title and cover for this story is different from the rest of the series. That's because I consider this to be bonus material rather than a continuation of the series. It's only 12 chapters long. I may change the cover at some point, but in the meantime, this is what I have. :)Complete
