    Fiends are monsters. Recon was made to erase them. Charley has spent her life believing that-trained to hunt, bred to obey, and destined for a future she didn't choose. In her world, love is a liability and bodies are contracts enforced by law. Then, a routine mission goes wrong. When Charley encounters a Fiend who looks human, the certainty she's built her life on fractures. As secrets surface and loyalty is tested, she begins to question whether the real threat lies beyond the walls... or within them. Because the most dangerous things aren't always seen. Sometimes, they're taught.

    ⸻ Power is never taken all at once. It is earned in silence, blood, and obedience. Two years after the academy forged him into a weapon, Alexi Arkson is no longer just a rising officer-he is a man standing at the edge of something far greater, and far more dangerous. The war has not ended. It has only changed shape. Within the ranks, old commanders cling to fading authority while Arkson builds something new beneath their feet-quietly, methodically, without asking permission. Orders begin to bend around him. Loyalty shifts. Fear listens. And deep beneath a forgotten government site, an abandoned facility hums back to life, becoming the birthplace of an idea that will one day reshape the world. The Dark Army begins here. As Arkson tightens his grip on a base that becomes his first true domain, opposition rises from within. Former mentors, officers, even friends stand in his way-forcing him to make a choice that will stain his hands forever. Control is no longer theoretical. It is enforced. Publicly. Brutally. At home, his wife Selene carries a child he barely has time to see. His son Ryder, still young, watches a father who grows colder by the day. Arkson believes he is building a future strong enough to protect them. He does not yet know what it will cost. In the shadows of steel corridors and secret chambers, EDEN begins to speak-not as a map, not as a weapon, but as something far more unsettling: a voice. Incomplete. Evolving. Watching. By the time Arkson dons his legendary black uniform, the line between general and tyrant has already blurred. Because the greatest secret is not the army he is building- but the man he is becoming. And once the air leaves a man's lungs, there is no taking it back.

    In the distant future, life on Earth is mysteriously coming to an end. To ensure that the last of mankind dies out in a peaceful and civilized manner, the authoritarian Elders manage both dwindling resources and human lives in a strict quota system. Yet none of their precise calculations could have predicted the Throwback Effect — the impending extinction is triggering the young men in their society to revert to a primitive state of pure survival instinct. Liam, a supply pilot, and Lily, the daughter of the Head Elder, are childhood sweethearts. After discovering that Lily has been ordered into Involuntary Suicide by her own father, Liam leads a group of Throwback rebels in trying to conquer and colonize a suspiciously Earth-like planet covertly protected by the Elders’ Council. Little does Liam know that he’s disrupting an ancient cycle that will prove catastrophic for both planets — and his future with Lily. Note from author: This is the first completed novel I'd ever written. I submitted it to publishers, got a revise and resubmit from a major house that didn't work out, and moved onto other projects. Now, a few books later, I woke up one day and decided it's time to give it another go. I'll be re-editing the original manuscript in segments with skills I didn't possess before, and post them here on a regular basis. Enjoy and please let me know what you think of it :) There's just something about this story that speaks to my heart, and I'm so honored to share it with you.

    Part 2 of the Concord Saga Prequel In the Concord, love is a program-not a feeling. A year ago, Liova matched with Coren and chose the life the system promised: stability, status, a future. For twelve months, they've played their parts well enough to almost believe it's real. Then the Concord rewrites the rules. Now citizens get two chances to choose a partner-and choosing "incorrectly" doesn't end in heartbreak. It ends in stagnation: no promotions, no upward movement, no way up. Overnight, couples become calculations. Romance becomes a performance review. And as the pressure closes in, even Coren-charming, practiced, designed-begins to crack beneath what the Concord demands... and what it threatens to take away. Liova thought choosing him meant safety. She didn't realize it was only the beginning. My Reveries: First Fracture is a slow-burn dystopian romance where loyalty has a price-and the Concord always collects. COMING SOON! Read Part 1 (First Glance)!!
