Fantasy of Frost

2015

Sometimes it takes death to show you how to live. I know many things. What I am capable of, what I will change, what I will become. But there is one thing I will never know... The veil I've worn from birth carries with it a terrible loneliness; a suppression I cannot imagine being free of. Some things never change... My mother will always hate me. Her court will always shun me. ...Until they do. When the peace delegation arrives from the savage world of Glacium, my life is shoved wildly out of control by the handsome Prince Kedrick who, for unfathomable reasons, shows me kindness. And the harshest lessons are learned. Sometimes it takes the world bringing you to your knees to find that spark you thought forever lost. Sometimes it takes death to show you how to live. (Warning: Cliff-hanger ending. Suitable for mature young adult readers due to swearing.)

No one can discover I'm the Tatuma of Osolis - the princess of their enemy world... especially now I know why I was veiled at birth... Has my mother refused Jovan's peace offers and declared war?

Sin book cover

Sin

2017

PLEASE NOTE: This companion novella is designed to be read AFTER books 1–4 in The Tainted Accords. Sin contains SPOILERS of the Tainted Accords series. \\\* “He saunters in front of her with false casualness. Sin. Devastatingly handsome and devastatingly aware of it.” Sin is quite content to fornicate, fight, and drink his life away—in that order. He’s got friends, he’s got goldies, and he’s blissfully free of females—during the day, anyway. If there’s one thing his dear father taught him, it was to never let a woman get too close. “Women aren’t capable of loyalty,” his father would say over a bottle of brew. “They’ll leave you as soon as a better offer comes along.” Just like Sin’s mother. Yet when Sin comes across, quite frankly, the ugliest woman he’s ever seen, he finds himself offering her friendship, safe in the knowledge he’ll never feel anything more. Even if she’s different from any other female he’s ever met. Even when he can’t stop thinking about her. Olorna is still recovering from the harsh effects of starvation in her struggle to survive the war. Now she feels horribly out of her depth as a new member of the Solati court. Olorna is desperate to fit in for the sake of her mother, who has been given the role of her dreams. But when a royal change puts her mother’s new position on tenuous ground, she is powerless to stop it... When Olorna receives an offer which will solve all her problems, she is determined to accept, despite the consequences. Even when a man incapable of love steals a kiss from her lips. Even if she is making the biggest mistake of her life. (Warning: contains naughty words, mild sexual themes, and violence. Suitable for mature young adults.)

Olandon

2018

The battle was won, but the war isn’t over. One month ago, Olandon’s older sister abdicated the throne, leaving him a world he never expected to rule. With his mother dead and gone, the Osolis court should be exultant. Instead, those of high rank close in on every side, threatening to endanger the new and fragile peace. The attacks on the Ire folk continue. The loyalty of his army hangs by a thread. The scrutiny of three worlds is on him, each race weighing what kind of leader he will be. Yet all Olandon can focus on is the danger creeping closer to the person he loves, a bruma he never thought to see again, and a person his court will never accept. A person who, if he fails, will pay with their life. He is Tatum. But he has never felt more helpless in his life. PLEASE NOTE: Olandon is part of a companion novella series and is designed to be read after books 1-4 in The Tainted Accords.
