Carmen Grey always knew she was different.

None of the other children seemed able to read minds. None of the other children were able to manipulate their toys without touching them. On the morning of her sixth birthday, three men dressed in black arrive to remove her from the loving care of her parents.

She is taken to an underground facility meant for others like her, for Clairvoyants. Stripped of her name and identity, over the years she is fashioned into something scary—something lethal. Each day is an endless struggle and every night is plagued by nightmares. Yet Carmen’s ultimate battle won’t be to save her life but to keep her soul.

★★★★★ “Stayed up until 2 AM on a work night … you’ve been warned.”

Eight heroes. Two galaxies. One epic mystery.

Matthai Valtrellin, reluctant heir to a galactic dynasty, never questioned his role—until a mysterious woman appears, heralding impossible news. Within days, the foundations of his reality and civilization shatter.

On Earth, microbiologist Kat Miller’s career is over, her body is failing … and she’s losing her grip on reality. An unsettling job offer from a ruthless heiress is her last chance at answers—and a cure for her bizarre illness.

With lives destined to intertwine, eight heroes—including a four-armed gladiator, luck-obsessed smuggler, brooding politician, hacktivist, and pop star—must unravel a mystery that threatens both civilizations.

The Valmoran Chronicles is a gritty, kaleidoscopic space opera readers describe as ‘utterly engrossing’ and ‘refreshingly original’.

Blood. Elves. And Duels. This is Arcadeax: a mystic land of honor, intrigue, and spellpunk arcana.

A childhood tragedy trapped Remy Keaton in the fey world with nothing but a blade forged by his need for vengeance. He doesn’t remember his human life before that day, but long ago he learned the harsh ways of the seelie and unseelie courts.

When Remy rescues the daughter of a wealthy elven merchant from bandits, he falls madly in love with her. But a kiss from the elf girl would bring him a curse. Not only is love between the fey and the sons of Adam forbidden, but Jaira was promised to another: a capricious elf noble with a murderous reputation, and a spell from King Oberon himself ensures the girl’s virtue.

The only option for Remy is to win a dueling contest which will earn him the kiss he desires, and possibly purchase the respect of the fey kingdom. But when his enemy offers to restore Remy’s lost life, he learns the high cost of either option: abandon the woman he loves to the wickedness of her betrothed, or enter the fight of his life and lose his past forever. And regardless of his decision, Remy must still face the horrors of Cathair Dé’s fighting arena.

Can Remy and his friends escape Cathair Dé alive?

If you like dark fantasy, paranormal, and urban fantasy with elves, magic, and mystery, then you need this book. For fans of Sarah J. Maas, Holly Black, and Cassandra Clare.

A smuggler, a spy, a brewing revolution…and a rogue agent who could destroy it all.

Perrin Hightower can fly a run-down freighter through the galaxy’s most dangerous wormholes blindfolded, a handy skill in her shipping business…and her smuggling enterprises.

Special agent Tai Lawson dreams of leading the Ruby Confederation’s spy agency. But when his partner steals a top-secret list of revolutionaries and vanishes, Tai’s accused of helping his friend escape.

When Tai seeks her navigation expertise, Perrin would rather jump out an airlock than help. But the missing person is her ex-boyfriend—a double agent she thought was helping the revolution. Her name’s on that list, and she’ll do anything to keep it secret.

Hiding their true agendas, Tai and Perrin follow the rogue spy’s trail across the galaxy. Each must decide where their allegiance truly lies when they learn the spy carries more than a list of conspirators—he carries information that could shatter the fragile peace in the galaxy.

If you’re the kind of person who’s willing to try something DIFFERENT, then you might love this enemies-to-lovers horse-shifter romantasy series. Are you ready for stallion shifters, strong, possessive heroes, and smart, yet flawed heroines?

BOOK ONE: My Queendom for a Horse

Kristiana Liepa was supposed to use the money to save her family farm. She was NOT supposed to spend it all to save a massive, black stallion.

But when she saw how he was being treated, what’s a vet to do?

She had no idea that gorgeous beast was really a powerful (and morally gray) magician who had been cursed by a witch, or that she was the only one who could reverse the curse.

And she couldn’t possibly have known how that one rash decision would irrevocably change her life. . . and his.

Still not sure? Publisher’s Weekly said, “My Queendom for a Horse is an intriguing paranormal romance with a fresh and fun setup. [R]eaders will enjoy both the magical and romantic elements. The story of a shapeshifting horse is undoubtedly unique. The author puts a dynamic spin on fairytale tropes, while her knowledge and love of horses is evident throughout. A strong, confident female character takes center stage in this novel with her ability to talk to a cursed horse.”

A princess without her past.
A dark prince bound to fire.
A reckoning that will decide a realm.

Avalynn awakens in the Frost Vale with no memory of who she is or what she’s lost. Taken in by a hidden mountain village, she believes she has always been one of them and begins training as one of their warriors. But when dreams of a dark prince begin to haunt her, she realizes a terrifying truth: war is coming from the south—and she will be called to face it.

Far beyond the Vale, Mateo has become the queen’s greatest weapon. Consumed by dark magic and bound to a dragon’s power, he leaves behind everything he once was—including the love he abandoned and the family and friends he once fought for in the Sublands. Now, he must prove himself worthy of the crown and solidify his place as future king—even if it means burning everything in his path.

With the prophecy slipping out of reach, Avalynn must rediscover who she is before it’s too late. Because the bloodlines that shaped them are stirring—and if Avalynn doesn’t rise, Mateo may fall beyond saving.

In a war of bloodlines and dragons, will love survive the fire—or will Avalynn and Mateo destroy each other first?

Ancient prophecy. Unleashed dragons. A love tested by choice, sacrifice, and flame.
Perfect for fans of Holly Black, Sarah J. Maas, and sweeping epic fantasy romance.
