There's no such thing as magic, and he can't really be a knight in shining armor, but for once her life isn't boring. When the portal back to his world stands open before her, she can't let him disappear from her life.

Kaolin is a world where today's technology doesn't exist. An old couple rescue Jak from the cold mountain air and help him take steps in finding a way home.

Kinsey absolutely hated his guts for ages, but during their trip to capture the dragon, Kinsey discovers a new side to him. Then there's Audrey, the fittest most charming, and most handsome of the dragon killers. Not only is he irresistible, he already likes her. Besides these two men, she gets kidnapped by the dragon she was supposed to kill. Suddenly, she's thrown into a whirlwind of confusion as she befriends her worst enemy and falls into a terribly conflicted love triangle, but through all of it, she believes the dragon is steering her right.Complete

My Silver-Haired Demon
A man with a seriously messed up life and a load of mental problems made a lot of mistakes in his life but one stands above the rest. The story is about one man with a broken mind doing everything he can to try and make up for the wrong he did and find the woman he loves. This story is very intense and isn't for light reading. I think of the story like this: This isn't the story of a hero slaying a dragon and rescuing the princess. Nor is this a story about a hero who triumphs over evil and rescues the maiden in peril. This is the story of a man, who fights as much with himself, as he does the world around him. He is no hero, he is simply a man, trying to make the best he can of himself, and fix what he broke. He is both the protagonist, and antagonist of this story, because he does as much harm to himself as he does good.Complete
The Anchor Of A Time
A tale where destiny, dreams, and storytelling collide. The Anchor of A Time is a deeply moving story of love, loss, and the courage to chase dreams. It follows Haroon, a young man shaped by tragedy yet strengthened by quiet resilience. Since childhood, he has found refuge in storytelling-building worlds with his pen long before the real world offered him a place to stand. Encouraged by his closest friends, Haroon sets out to pursue writing. But his journey is guided by a single missing piece from his past: Saina Aunty, the woman who once protected his childhood and vanished from his life for years. Determined to find her, Haroon and his friends embark on a heartfelt journey to Denmark, leading to an emotional reunion that changes them forever. Just as Haroon's first novel reaches readers, fate opens an extraordinary door-a personal letter from Ray Bradbury, inviting him to America. Suddenly standing among literary legends, Haroon must choose between the world he always dreamed of and the village that shaped his soul. This crossroads forces him to confront ambition, identity, and the sacrifices behind every dream. Amid this turning point, Haroon discovers a new creative calling: manga storytelling. Drawing from his own struggles, he creates The Last Anomaly, a gripping saga set in a world ruled by supernatural abilities. Its hero, Kael Vardhan, is the only one born powerless in a society where strength defines worth. Mocked and underestimated, Kael refuses to accept the fate handed to him. With nothing but intellect, strategy, and unbreakable will, he carves a path that challenges the very foundation of his world. Blending emotional realism with epic imagination, The Anchor of Time and its embedded manga universe The Last Anomaly form a powerful narrative about resilience, identity, and the stories we build to survive. A moving novel. A visionary manga. A journey of a boy who became a storyteller-and changed his own destiny.Complete
Taniel (The Taverner's Daughter I)
THE TAVERNER'S DAUGHTER - BOOK ONE FANTASY, MAGIC, DRAGONS, ROMANCE, WINGED WIZARDS. Please Note: The rest of this series will not be published until the complete series is drafted and revised - probably another four volumes over the next year. However, this book doesn't end on some really bad cliffhanger, and I think it has a satisfactory 'end' feel, so do read it if you wish. After mistaking a leather-clad wizard for a dragonrider, the taverner's daughter agrees to binding vows: Jarryd hopes for a magic-saving paternity spell but Taniel just wants his dragon. Of course, it is not that simple. It never is. Others have plans for Taniel and can do without Jarryd's interference. Taniel's father is little help, too busy dealing with a guilty conscious and pining for his missing wife. Add talking dragons, kidnappings, a gallivanting Grandmaster Wizard, a wicked stepfather, seductive shape shifting winged wizards, and midwitchery. Stir with rumour of plotting land-locked pirates, spies, feisty forest sprites, rockgoblins, and a failing magical barrier. Welcome to the world of A Corrangorachian Fantasy. SOME MILD MATURE MOMENTS (but maybe not enough to mark MATURE): A few not-particularly-graphic sex scenes. Violence? Could get nasty, depending on your perception. Drug Use? Pipe smoking, copious alcohol, and the odd potion. And some coarse language, of course. (AUSTRALIAN - BRITISH ENGLISH)Complete
