Shadows of Sacrifice: Veiled Destiny
I understand that you may be wondering about the essence of this enigmatic book, as its description seems to reveal little. But let me pose a question to you: is there ever a definitive answer to any query that crosses our minds? Within the pages of this book lies a tale that amalgamates horror and terror, interwoven with the delicate threads of romance. It ventures into uncharted territories, concealing a destiny so obscure that the world remains oblivious to its existence. An unimaginable fate awaits, defying all preconceptions. Destiny, a seemingly insignificant concept, finds itself manipulated by formidable individuals. Its presence is often dismissed, yet it perseveres, growing potent in the clutches of malevolence. However, only when it falls into the grasp of true custodians can its true potential be unleashed. Until then, evil reigns supreme, a disquieting prospect that lingers. Yet, in the depths of those brave enough to embrace it, destiny may just be the sole savior of frail human lives.
Rebel

Sage Cordell is a rebellious and sarcastic high school girl who is hard to contain. One day at school she breaks the rules so bad that she gets sent to Cathleen. Little did she know that Cathleen put a robotic cell in everyone's brains at birth, and is looking for those very few individuals who can resist it. After joining the gang, Sage realizes that Cathleen has no good intentions, and fights to escape the new hold she has on them.
Soul Tied
I'm Xirasti a pure demon that lives in hell. When I was a child on accident I found an angel trapped in the bottom of a cavern. From the first moment I saw him he was mystical and enchanting. As I grew older he became beautiful and had me enraptured. Then I set him free. Things did not go as expected.
What I do know is:
I almost died for him.
I burned for him.
I bled for him.
I sacrificed for him.
I deceived for him.
I stole for him.
I longed for him.
Then once he is free I do them all over again and again. Because Sam, I'd follow him anywhere. What better reason is there to sacrifice yourself for someone other than love?
What's a Mate?
A pack of werewolves escapes captivity, and finds their way to a human girl's home where they take shelter. The last thing Alpha Kane expects to find when breaking into the empty mansion is that it's actually not empty, and that it is occupied by his mate.
Kunoichi
Kunoichi is the hottest Japanese girl group around with a hit album and millions of fans around the world, but cracks are beginning to show. Cracks centered around their genius songwriter and singer Akari that threaten to tear the band apart and send them spiraling out of control.
Danger, music, girls' love, sex and an exploration of celebrity in a world where control is the one thing no one will give up.
Sweet Silence
Sage is a villain. Not by choice. It just sort of turned out that way, but hey, he's not complaining. Being bad is pretty cool, actually. And while by most people's standards his superpower is pretty lame - muting sound, of all things - he's found it pretty useful when robbing the rich.
Most heroes ignore him. Except one. Lich, the necromancer. Sage didn't know how talking to the dead was considered heroic, but whatever. That's not the problem. The problem is that Lich apparently has a homing beacon locked on Sage specifically, and he keeps getting in Sage's way, despite most heroes not bothering to deal with the small-time villain committing petty theft.
It was annoying, but fine. Sage wasn't all that active in the villainy community anymore anyway. He had just turned thirty, and quite frankly, he was done with this shit. But still, he wanted to go out with a bang, so he planned his final heist: robbing the most powerful man in the city, the governor.
Except, when Sage broke into the governor's house all he found was the governor - dead as a doornail. What's worse is that for the first time in Sage's life, he was no longer invisible. He was found standing over the body, murder weapon in hand.
Now, the entire city of Fairview wants Sage dead, and the only person on earth who can clear his name is his very own necromancer nemesis. For how much they fight, Lich is surprisingly on board with helping Sage...
And so, the two embark on a quest to discover the real killer and clear Sage's name, but the trail leads them to discover some of Fairview's most well-kept and dangerous secrets...
Denzai
Book 2 of the series "A Song in the Darkness" - Sequel to "Darkwalker"
*****
Tarriq Zar, grandson of the famous Ranger of Londinium, has some serious responsibilities laid on his shoulders. The notoriously insular Darkwalker has a new apprentice and the beginnings of a plan to get the failing life support systems for the sub-city replaced. Not to mention the revelation of his status to the Denzai, who now are beginning to look up to him as a societal leader as well. And none of his new responsibilities comes with a plan to help him deal with his own wildly unstable emotions.
On the plus side, he has new allies. Fourteen year old Kellen is firmly in Tarriq's corner and shaping up to be a force to be reckoned with. Annika Surazi, the Chairman of the sub-city, is definitely on board. And Larqissa, the grandmother Tarriq thought deceased, is supporting him fully.
The problem is that none of these positives are helping Tarriq find the stability he desperately craves when all of them are trying to pull him in different directions. All of which are also pulling him firmly out of his comfort zone. And he's about to find out just how bad it can get.
