Securing Aisling

A queen in need of a husband and a prince who had never been truly loved—will they overcome opposition to find happiness?

Brianna Reaner, Queen of Aisling, has never been on a date, been in love, had a suitor, or has even had a crush on a boy before. According to the laws of her country, she must marry by her eighteenth birthday or risk losing the right to rule her kingdom. How is she supposed to find a suitable husband in less than six months? What will the consequences be if she makes the wrong choice?

With the help of her advisors, she compiles a surprisingly short list of suitable mates. Her top choices include three princes all belonging to her nemesis, King Coman Barnali of Gilvary. None of the three seem particularly promising. Dunbar, the eldest, is his father’s puppet. Next in line is Reagan, the biggest flirt in Kearnley. Then there is the elusive Garrett who seems to go into hiding whenever she is present. One by one she eliminates names from her list until she finds the man she feels destined to marry. But her choice is not pleasing to everyone.

King Coman has been plotting to take control of Aisling for years. Queen Brianna’s choice causes him to have to come up with a new plan—one that could prove deadly for the newly wedded couple.

The Wizard Slayer

Magick turns men into gods. Men were not born to be gods.

Krael was no ordinary barbarian. Born in the savage north, his people were more animal than human. His fangs and terrifying stature always kept him from fitting in with civilized humanity. To most, Krael was just a monster. But a select few knew him for his true talents. Those select few called him the Wizard Slayer.

When rumors of a rogue sorcerer reach the king of Saidal’s ears, he enlists Krael to bring him to justice. But Krael is no mere bounty hunter. The Wizard Slayer’s crusade against magic is a personal one. Though the king wished to keep the sorcerer alive, Krael has more fatal plans in store…

Battling those who use magic is never easy. It is even more difficult when corrupt nobility seeks to coerce you. Yet Krael will not bend the knee. By blood and steel, he will continue to fight for what he believes in, no matter the cost.

The Demon’s Crystal

Indiana Jones meets a modern Sci-Fi Adventure.

For Eric Frost, Madagascar is a place of beauty and learning. A researcher in bio-robotics, Eric finds the sheer variety of flora and fauna fascinating – but when he finds Unseen Madagascar, an unassuming book by a missing British author named Richard Walters, Eric learns that there’s more to the nation than meets the eye.

The text speaks of an island off the coast of Madagascar known only as Demon Island. There, the author suggests, lives an isolated and hostile tribe of natives who seem to jealously guard something held deeper in the island’s interior.

Eric, along with his friends Ivy and Max, pledge to get to the bottom of the mystery. They travel to Madagascar and begin to plan a journey out to Demon Island, but instead they meet the mysterious Daniel, a self-proclaimed American explorer full of dark warnings and vague stories. He eventually agrees to help Eric and his friends get to Demon Island, but at a price…
