Fatum Vocat. Fate calls.

Quinn Maddox thinks fate is utter bullshit.

For the last decade, she's run from her mother and the Order of the Hallowed. When her magic rears its ugly head, she left with her boyfriend's bloody body at her feet. Faced with a crime scene, she forced to ask her family for help. But in a secret society worshipping primordial gods, nothing comes without a price.

Quinn submits to her mother's will and returns to the Order on the cusp of the ancient ritual. She must survive lethal trials, mind-altering rites, and the machinations of ancient gods. But when Quinn learns the truth of her power and uncovers her mother's dark secret, she must decide: become the villain to save her sister or fight the call of cosmic fate to save her herself.

The Horrors of Us is a dark contemporary fantasy about the violence of fate, the weight of a family legacy, and the strength of sibling bonds.

Her kingdom is at war, and she’s being forced to marry. But Lelia is a princess who doesn’t like being told what to do. Rollo, the Ash Prince, is a super hot, battle-hardened warrior with the power to wield fire. Because of Lelia’s reputation for being a free-spirit, Rollo is the only man brave enough to claim her hand.

It's up to Lelia to choose how much power she's willing to relinquish to find love.

","

Her kingdom is at war, and she’s being forced to marry. But Lelia is a princess who doesn’t want to get married. After using her powers of ice to be a general nuisance to ward off any potential match, she must face the consequences when her parents force her into an arranged marriage to help save her kingdom.

Rollo, the Ash Prince, is a super hot, battle-hardened warrior with the power to wield fire. Because of Lelia’s reputation for being a free-spirit, Rollo is the only man brave enough to claim her hand.

Leila is utterly shocked when she learns of the sexy and sinful customs of her new home. As she gets to know Rollo, she is thrilled, yet hesitant, to learn about his erotic desires. Even with his incredible wealth and power, she realizes he craves control. And he wants to exert that control over her mind and body.

It's up to Lelia to choose how much power she's willing to relinquish to find love.

Claimed by the Ash Prince is a Snow Queen retelling with a forced marriage trope featuring a possessive and aggressive, touch-her-or-die love interest.

He is a general.","

Seren never wanted this life, but with her father drowning in debt, she had no choice. By day, she dreams of opening a flower shop, inspired by parents. By night, she plays the role of the perfect courtesan—until she’s assigned to entertain the infamous General Zephyrion.

Zephyrion has spent his life at war, and now all he wants is peace. He never expected to find solace in the company of a sharp-tongued courtesan, nor did he expect to crave more than just one night. But when Seren refuses to steal from him—defying the orders of her ruthless employer—she pays the price with blood.

Zephyrion won’t stand by while she suffers. But in saving her, he destroys the only life she’s ever known. With nowhere else to turn, Seren must decide if she’ll forge a new path with him or if love is just another cage waiting to trap her.
