❝There once was a time where blessed humans carried gifts from the gods. But with such gifts came greed, power and envy, and with that came destruction.❞
Bearing unnatural abilities that defy the laws of science, Hazel, Fern and Ivy take any opportunity to play with their unique gifts. Growing up together have led to a close knit friendship, forging them inseparable and faithful to one another.
But unknown to them, the girls belong to a vicious divide among hidden societies, sinister plots and a whole new world. The possession of such unique power has been the source of endless wars and constant turmoil, and to view its potency as a gift is shadowed by a poisoned revelation; It is not a gift. It is a curse.
*
Fern can enter the minds of humans and animals, binding their will to hers and enabling the control of actions and emotions.
Ivy can master the elements, forcing nature to serve their mistress.
But Hazel can look into the past and see the future.
And in the future the world is breaking.
Can a gift really be a curse?

Furious
The gods are dying and and only Hades knows why. There is nothing quite as frustrating as being the last person to know what's going on. Most days it seems like the whole world knows something Autumn doesn't-the whole Underworld, anyway. For 18 year-old Autumn, the biggest obstacles in her foreseeable future are paying for college and staying out of trouble. She doesn't need gods of half-forgotten myths swooping in to alter her course-but Hector, the second incarnation of the Lord of the Underworld, has never been one to sit back and watch the world burn. Enter Autumn, unknowing, untrained, unwilling Fury: the perfect secret weapon in a secret war of the gods. Hector and Autumn strike a bargain but the more Autumn gets to know the inhabitants of the Underworld, the further she gets from her all-too-human problems. Who can think about homework or consequences when all of the gods are dying? With the help-or the hindrance-of the Fates, Autumn must train with Harpies, Furies, and other creatures formerly of myth to win an impending war for Hector, restore the ambrosia to Olympus, and be home in time for graduation. All in a Tuesday's work.Complete

Must the Flowers Die
Mia Tao's life in small-town South Carolina is ordinary. She dreams of studying fashion design in New York, and, occasionally, of kissing her best friend since childhood, Alex. Then Liam Morrison moves to town. Beautiful, intelligent, supportive, Liam seems like the perfect man. But Liam isn't in town by accident. Millennia ago, powerful sorceresses formed a coalition with nymphs to banish the gods back to Olympus for their cruel and destructive abuse of power. Now, Olympus is collapsing, and Liam, the demi-god son of a mortal and Artemis, has been tasked with re-opening the gateway between the mortal world and Olympus. If he fails, everyone on Olympus dies. If he succeeds, it unleashes the capricious gods to once again wreck havoc on the lives of mortals. This mission puts him in direct collision course with Alex, whose family are descendants of the sorceresses who expelled the gods and bound by duty and magic to prevent their return. As Mia begins to love Liam, she is pulled into a fated battle between two supernatural factions, with Liam on one side and Alex on the other. Alliances form and break as the creatures and beings long subordinated by human development rise to reclaim power and protect their own. Mia is not only torn personally, but also morally. In a situation where some must suffer for others to live, how does she choose a side?Complete
