Her Dark Reflection
2022
"They called me the Whore Queen. Some even called me the Evil Queen. But they could call me whatever they wanted. I was still queen." Rhiandra Tiercelin hungers for power and her charm has always been her sharpest weapon in hunting it. So when a brutal attack leaves her physically scarred, desperation drives her to make a deal with Draven, a magic-wielding stranger who is inexplicably compelling and definitely dangerous. She knows she can’t trust him, but when he offers to make her a queen, the temptation is too enticing to resist. Armed with a glamoured face and an enchanted apple, Rhiandra is determined to scheme her way into a crown, even if it means risking the deadly punishment for unsanctioned magic use. But Draven is playing a bigger game, and she is just one piece on the board. Can she keep her wits about her long enough to uncover his secrets, or will he lure her down a path she will come to regret? Her Dark Reflection is the first book in a new dark fantasy series perfect for fans of Raven Kennedy, Jennifer Armentrout and Sarah A. Parker. If you like cunning, ambitious heroines, morally ambiguous men and slow-burn romance that toes the line between love and hate, then you’ll love Hailey Jade’s dark reimagining of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Trigger Warnings: this book explores dark themes and may contain content that is inappropriate or triggering for some readers, including explicit sex scenes and depictions of sexual assault.

Her Blind Deception
2023
Winning power is easy, but keeping it is a whole new game. After being tricked into marriage at the height of her victory, Rhiandra finds herself tied to the dark and devious Draven. But he's manipulated her for the last time. As she struggles to maintain control of her crown and gain control of her new husband, she's determined to evade his influence and outwit her own heart. After all, how can she trust him when she’s hiding a secret that could unravel them both? Meanwhile, the crown princess is in hiding, enchanted by a new world free of the restraints of her old life, and content to stay away from her stepmother. But a dead princess is no small thing to forget, especially when she is very much alive. The question is, how long before she's found? Blood will be spilled, magic will change hands, and war will raise its hackles as a game of love and betrayal stakes entire kingdoms on the outcome. Because when you’re the villain in the story, how far do you go for revenge on those who hurt you? How far do you go for revenge on those you’ve loved?

Her Cruel Redemption
2025
“When you’ve known love to slip through gentle hands, you’ll grip it with teeth and claws.”
Now a queen in hiding, Rhiandra has taken refuge in the Yawn with Gwinellyn, tolerated but never truly welcomed by the princess’s new friends. Driven by a thirst for vengeance against the man who betrayed her, Rhiandra struggles to master a dangerous power that no one wants her to wield. But she must learn control, for Draven is hunting her. When word of war between Brimordia and Oceatold reaches them, Gwinellyn can no longer stand idly by as her people suffer. Determined to reclaim her birthright, she needs Rhiandra’s help to retake the throne. But as they journey through a battle-scarred land, both women are haunted by secrets—Gwinellyn wonders if she can trust her stepmother, while Rhiandra hides truths that could shatter their fragile alliance. Many of those secrets centre on her tumultuous relationship with the man now calling himself king. If they want to win this fight, blood and lives will not be the only price.
The epic finale of The Dark Reflection series tests the boundaries of love, power, and destiny. When lovers turn enemies and vengeance becomes obsession, the lines begin to blur between justice and tyranny. Loyalties will be tested and kingdoms will tremble as Rhiandra treads the path of redemption—but whose? And what will it cost them all?
