He was too fragile for the world that demanded strength.
He was doomed to die forgotten.
Sparrow is Comanche, son of a war chief, heir to a legacy of hunters and fighters but disease stole the body he was meant to have. While others ride to glory, he is left behind to guard the camp… until the world proves that survival is never fair.
When soldiers descend in fire and gun smoke, Sparrow makes a final stand that turns myth into blood-soaked truth. He dies a warrior at last.
And that should have been the end.
Instead, Sparrow awakens in Tir Na Nog, a brutal world of magic, monsters, and living systems where power is earned or taken. Here, gods bargain, death is temporary, and strength decides everything. Given a second life, a restored body, and bound to a dying trickster god, Sparrow must carve his place in a realm that makes no allowances for weakness.
This is not a story about chosen ones handed easy power.
This is a story about earning it.
Ashes and Ruin blends historical tragedy, Indigenous myth, and hard-edged LitRPG progression into a tale of identity, rage, honor, and rebirth. It asks a simple question:
If you were denied your destiny once…what would you become when given another chance
Sparrow has made a friend in this new world, and one he will not abandon.

I’d risked a lot in my life because of my job.
Pedos? Eliminated.
Cheating spouses? They always seemed to have an accident.
People who couldn’t pay their dues? Well, they needed to be taught a lesson.
The list went on and on, and I’d never once cared about the sacrifice I was making.
Until her.
Feisty, funny as hell, cute as a button…
But that all changed the night of the fire.
The night I ran in and nearly died for her.
Hell, she nearly died.
It was sheer luck that she survived that night. By all accounts, she should have died.
And that should have been my wakeup call, my chance to turn it all around.
But my life was not my own, and if she ever found out, it would be the end of whatever this was between us.
I’m no good for her, but I never wanted to change my life as much as the night I heard her Whisper My Name.
I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.
Forced to flee to the First Hunger and escape the wrath of the Crown and their new, deranged leader, Drake and his companions soon find themselves caught up in a civil war which threatens to tear the cosmos apart. A new enemy, one of the elder gods, has risen from obscurity, aligning herself with Chaos itself in a bid to topple the existing hierarchy and reshape the multiverse to her own designs.
Twelve years of silence shattered by one truth: The best man has always loved the bride. Now she must choose between her vows and her heart.
Minutes before I walk down the aisle, I discover my fiancé, Elijah, cheated on me.
He slept with someone else at his bachelor party three months ago.
When his brother, Julian—my best friend since college—learns I know the truth, he confesses a secret of his own, something that changes everything: He’s been in love with me for twelve years.
I’ve always felt the same, but I buried those feelings, convinced he’d never love me back.
What happens next in the bridal suite is reckless. Impulsive. Forbidden. Everything I’ve wanted since the day we met. One moment of passion that makes an impossible situation even more complicated.
Now I’m facing an unthinkable choice: the man I made promises to, or the one I’ve wanted all along. Walking away from either brother means destroying more than just a marriage—it means tearing a family apart.
But Elijah’s betrayal runs deeper than I know.
And nothing can prepare me for what he’ll do to keep me.

A Dark Knight biker, a torturous secret, and a road trip that changes everything. Come along for the emotionally wicked ride in this steamy, pulse-pounding small-town standalone romance. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a happily ever after that will stay with you long after you read the last page.
Tattooist Aria Bad has mastered the art of hiding in plain sight. Her art is her only safe place. Crowded rooms make her panic. People’s eyes burn too hot. Except his. Zeke Wicked has been the steady presence she’s leaned on since he tutored her through high school. He’s a loyal, protective Dark Knight biker, the kind of man who sees everything and the one man who could unravel her without even trying. Every year he takes her to see her family for the holidays, but this year she’s harboring a secret and needs to go alone.
Years ago, Zeke swore to protect, and never touch, Aria, but that didn’t stop his heart from staking claim to her. Lately she’s been secretive and has been pulling away, and now she’s determined to make their annual trip without him, but his instincts won’t let her go alone. When a storm strands them, boundaries blur and buried feelings rise to the surface, unearthing a passion neither can deny. But as the storm clears, they discover two dangerous truths—one that ties them together and one that threatens to tear them apart.
🏍️Review🏍️ Zeke is a man who is always there for anyone who needs him with no thought to what it could mean for him personally. He has been best friends with Aria for years however he also knows that there is something she isn’t telling him when she decides to embark on a trip without him. He isn’t about to let her face whatever it is alone whether she wants it or not.
Aria doesn’t remember much of her life before she was adopted but it has left an emotional impact on her which impacts her daily life however Zeke gives her a feeling of peace but makes her feel safe as well. She has plans for her trip that she doesn’t want anyone to know about however with everything she is about to discover there is no one she would rather have by her side.
Zeke was determined to protect Aria for everyone and everything including himself while Aria has been cautious about doing anything that could jeopardize one of the most important relationships in her life. This is an emotional and heartwarming story as Zeke and Aria finally acknowledge that they are not only destined to be friends but soulmates as well.
She came to Whynot to uncover her mother’s scandal and instantly disrupted the quiet life of the local man who prefers bees to people.
Travel blogger Reese Cartier lives for the rush of discovering the unknown. She’s survived missed flights, bad haircuts, and questionable hostels, but nothing could have prepared her for quirky, southern town of Whynot, North Carolina. She’s here for one reason… to untangle the truth about her late mother’s mysterious past.
Her first clue? A dusty rented cottage on a secluded bee farm. Her second clue? The infuriatingly handsome, maddeningly quiet beekeeper who owns it.
Eli Hart likes his life simple, which includes tending hives, bottling honey, and avoiding unnecessary conversation. Then sunshine-in-a-sundress Reese crash-lands on his property—literally—sending her drone into a tree over his bee boxes and his sanity straight into jeopardy.
She’s chaos. He’s calm. She wants answers. He wants her to stop breaking things.
But when the too-curious tenant begins to chip away at her mother’s long-buried secrets, a reluctant partnership is formed with Whynot’s hottest, most reclusive bachelor and becomes a full-blown adventure steeped in the town’s secrets, gossip, and nosiest residents.
Somewhere between Reese’s big questions, bigger ideas, and the way she keeps tripping into his quiet life… Eli realizes she’s the most disruptive thing he’s ever wanted.
A grumpy-sunshine romance full of small-town meddling, slow-burn heat, and one impossible beekeeper who learns that sometimes love buzzes in when you least expect it.
For as long as I could remember, Eloise Lawson had been my girl.
Growing up in a quaint North Carolina beach town, the two of us were inseparable. Ellie and I were thick as thieves. But with our last names came pressure and responsibility.
At eighteen, we went our separate ways, but we never lost each other. The two of us shared a bond that couldn’t be broken—not even by distance or decades.
But when Ellie returns to our small town under a smokescreen of scandal and secrets, our past might be the only thing that can salvage the life she’s worked so hard to build.
I’ve never kissed her, but now I’m calling her my fiancée. Our engagement is the headline of Page Six.
Ellie was my first friend. My first crush. My first love.
I would do anything to be hers forever.
The question is: will the girl of my dreams finally become my wife? Or will the weight of our names drag us down?
——————————————————————
Best friends to lovers? Check. Fake engagement? Yes, please. The son of a millionaire and the daughter of a billionaire wrapped up in small-town romance? Absolutely. Smoke Ring is the long-awaited romance between Giovanni DeRossi and Eloise Lawson.
This book is a complete standalone and is not part of the Beaufort Poker Club series.
After five years of writing contemporary romance on a relentless release schedule, I’m burned out. My last two books have barely made a ripple, and for the first time in my career, I’m not sure I have another love story in me. So when my agent offers me a secluded stay at the luxurious Belicourt Resort in the Teton Mountains, I’m ready to say yes.
The resort’s general manager, Porter Garrison, wants me to write the story of the Belicourt’s most famous resident: The Lady in Red, a mysterious spirit who has supposedly haunted the hotel for decades. But the project offers something more—a chance to step outside my genre and create an entirely new series. Maybe it’s exactly what I need to fall in love with writing again.
Then Gaige Keaver gets in the way.
The ridiculously sexy ski instructor has a habit of appearing whenever I’m trying to work—and making it nearly impossible to remember why I swore off men, romance, and happily-ever-afters. And the Lady in Red seems determined to meddle in my life, too, leaving clues to her own mysterious past and somehow nudging Gaige and me closer together.
Soon, I’m not sure whether I’m writing the Lady in Red’s love story…or living one of my own.
Maybe I came to the Belicourt to find my next story.

She’s the last woman he wants to see. And the one he can’t walk away from.
True-crime podcaster Bailey Cosgrove has built her career finding answers for other families. Now she’s investigating her sister’s murder—and someone wants her to stop. When a threat reaches inside her home, the widowed mother needs someone she can trust with her little boy’s life. She needs Wes Wilder.
The former FBI agent hasn’t forgotten how Bailey’s powerful in-laws destroyed his career. Protecting her means stepping back into everything he swore he’d left behind. But old resentment gives way to undeniable attraction, and somewhere between keeping Bailey safe and making her son laugh, an assignment starts to feel like the family he never knew he wanted.
As buried secrets emerge and threats close in, falling in love gives them both more to lose. Bailey won’t abandon her sister again. And Wes won’t let her become the next victim.
LOST AND FOUND is the third book in the Titan Protectors series. It can be read as a standalone and has a happily ever after!
Bodyguard romance • Single mom • Enemies to lovers • Forced proximity • Protective hero • Found family
“We don’t have to be friendly?” she repeated, slowly blinking like he had lost his mind.
“Nope. Not uh. No way.”
“No, what?”
She shook her head. “Nope, we’re not doing this today. You should leave.”
“What are you talking about?” Though even he heard his higher-pitched register.
Undoubtedly, he was in the wrong.
“You should go back to the hole you crawled out of.”
“You don’t want me to leave, Bailey.” He didn’t want to leave.
“I thought you’d be the friendlier guy who warmed up to me yesterday.”
“I’m friendly. Ish.”
💚Review💚
After the loss of her husband Bailey became a single mother to her son Matt. She chose her career as a cold case podcast for personal reasons and her latest investigation holds a special place in her heart. However, this investigation has also drawn the attention of the wrong person, so she engages Titan to assist.
Wes and Bailey have worked together in the past however it didn’t end well for Wes. After being released by the FBI he has transitioned into private security. The last person that he wants to work with is Bailey however the more time he spends with her and Matt the deeper the feelings become during the dangerous situation they find themselves in.
I enjoyed seeing the relationship between Wes and Bailey unfold as they made peace with the past and the way that he interacted with Matt was heartwarming. The story balances intrigue, humor and heart as Wes, Bailey and Matt find the happiness they all deserve.
