As the spare heir to the kingdom of Thegalla, Lauden Erynore's life comes with certain obligations. Like keeping secrets that could tear the country apart and marrying the heir to neighbouring kingdom Zegon to prevent their king invading with his army of kerei; the fearsome dragon shifters under Zegon's command.Still, it could be worse. Crown Prince Reyn is full of witty banter and he's just as sexy as the rumours suggested. For an arranged marriage to a complete stranger with a murderous father, things aren't looking so bad.So, of course, it does get worse.The minute she steps foot into Zegon, Lauden lands firmly in the sights of the kerei legion's deadliest soldier. Lieutenant Drace Darkmore, second bond to Zegon's king, is on a mission to kill any Thegallan that stumbles into his path.

The more Lauden learns about the shadowed world of the kerei, the more she realises that the truth she grew up on might not be the only one.And the first truth she'll have to learn is that everyone has a little fyre inside them.…

"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a girl who's just travelled halfway around the world will be in want of a bed."When Lily Brewer is shipped off to boarding school in England, she runs into the insufferably arrogant Austin Cooper. He's haughty, rude and thinks he's better than everyone else. Shame, then, that his twin brother Jax is so sweet and kind and has a not-so-subtle thing for Lily's oblivious roommate, Anne.This is a modern young adult adaptation of Jane Austen's beloved 'Pride & Prejudice'. In it, you'll find all your favourite characters and then some.*This is part one of a re-working of my story 'Netherfield Prep'.

Not My Darcy *Wattpad Exclusive*

No one who had seen me in my infancy, childhood, pre-teen years, or even last week would have thought I was born to be a heroine. But, surely, every girl got to be the heroine of her own story. And I was searching for what every Janeite with minimal pounds a year was; a hero to share my story.The only problem was, I was the epitome of that meme. I honest to goodness did not blame Disney for my unrealistic expectations of men. I had Jane to blame. It was bad enough Granny Meg and I spent my formative years romanticising gentlemen like Darcy and Tilney, the world of TV then decided that Regency was hot shit and I had all new gentlemen to make me swoon.There was a brief flirtation with Sidney Parker. I mean, that arse. How could you not?But then...then I was ruined for all men, at the ripe old age of seventeen, for the rest of my life.Hello, Anthony Bridgerton.There was not a thing that man could do or say that would not have me drooling.Move over Darcy, there's a new standard in town.A standard that Summerville High School's resident bad boy suddenly plans to surpass.Penn Franklin had always been of the look but don't touch variety. And, now he's taken a leaf out of every Regency man's playbook, just looking is becoming far too dangerous. Lingering glances, passionate words, and nothing but the promise of a touch.What's a girl to do when the bad boy talks Regency dirty? Pray to our Lady Jane that she can resist him and, when she can't, that he won't break her heart.…

Girl + guy + three days = greatest love story ever.Yeah, right.Jess Clayton had no interest in romance. The teen cynic was convinced it was all a ruse made up to lure you into stupidity and part you from your hard-earned pennies. No matter how many people asked her out - not that there was a line or anything - she refused to date. When it came to romance, Ryan Miller had been there and done that. The re-reformed bad boy had already done his redemption romance story only to have his supposed one true love go and break his heart. He really wasn't interested in going through all that mess again.So, when the two come together for a Year 12 English camp with the express purpose of testing the legend of Romeo and Juliet falling in love in three days, nothing could possibly go wrong. After all, it was impossible to fall in love with someone in three days. Wasn't it?Wilderness + teenagers + camping = true love?Over our dead bodies.…

Wade Phillips shattered Lisa McGinty's heart in Year 10 for no known reason. One minute he was the perfect boy-next-door boyfriend, star goalie on the soccer team, and future head prefect. The next he was like a different person altogether, dumping Lisa and systematically making his way through every girl in our year.By Year 12, he'd made it through most of the girls in our year and was on to the year below. He'd miraculously made Head Prefect and was somehow still on the Soccer team, even though he put more effort into partying.Lisa and I were used to his sarcastic teasing, his shallow taunting, and his insincere flirting. My best friend put on a brave face in front of him, but she still felt the sting. I knew she still loved him. At least, she thought she did. I kept waiting for her to see he wasn't worth it.No one knew what happened to Wade and no one got close to him anymore. Not until a life-altering incident throws me unavoidably into his path.For one single second, I see through the armour he's built. It takes just one single second for him to see through mine. Something connects us. It turns out, Wade Phillips might be the only one who understands me. It turns out, I might be the only one who understands him.Wade Phillips might be the guy to teach me the art of breaking up, but will my heart - and Lisa's - break in the process?…

The outposts are one thing, fey court is another entirely.With an inherited title she didn't earn and massive shoes to fill, Niamh tries to adjust to fey court. Dwendardian's forces are bombarding the castle, demanding Niamh's head for their leader. The harder she trains, the less adequate she feels, not in the least when her growing power only seems to be present when Eamon's annoying her.There is very little difference between love, lust and obsession.But, there is more than looming threats to the safety of all realms; the king's sons are caught in their own games and aren't averse to getting someone killed. While Eamon reminds himself his feelings for Niamh go no further than a simple fey obsession, he is still involved in the tug of war for power among the king's children.Fey obsession is a dangerous thing...So, oaths are formed and relationships tested as Niamh and Eamon are forced to hide away with the hope the fey can draw the fomorians away from Elfhaven. There, their own relationship is tested as Niamh gives in to her attraction to him....and, Eamon's will not be the only oath broken.But, once the threat is passed and they are back among others, Eamon is cold, distant, and his oath is near broken.

And, while she's slowly shedding some humanity and becoming one of them, she's only barely scratched the surface.…
