Book 01
Bite of Delight
Orion Taylor lost his mother years ago and has since been living a struggle, dealing with his abusive alcoholic father and looking after his ten-year-old younger brother. His only outlet is meaningless sex with strangers at a bar in town. It’s his policy to never sleep with someone twice as it could easily lead to complications which he cannot afford to have. His only focus is Looking after his brother; he doesn’t have time for relationships or love.
Until he meets Faust, a badass-looking man with sex appeal to die for. Orion can’t help but find himself drawn back to the man again and again, and even though there is something dangerous about him, Faust’s kindness makes it harder and harder to walk away.
Could Faust be something much more important to his life? And why does the man watch him like he’s hungry yet affectionate?
Book 02
Howls of the Night
Joel’s life is carefully measured—days spent in the quiet rhythm of a city café, nights haunted by the scars of a past he’d rather forget. But when a captivating stranger named Akira enters his café, Joel’s world shifts. Akira’s silver hair and otherworldly violet eyes conceal secrets Joel can’t ignore, and his calm intensity cuts through Joel’s defenses like no one ever has.
As Joel grapples with his growing connection to Akira, questions linger: Who—or what—is Akira, and what draws him so strongly to Joel? Can Joel confront the shadows of his past before they consume him entirely? And why does Akira’s presence feel like the key to something much bigger than either of them?
"Howls of the Night" weaves mystery, romance, and the haunting weight of trauma into a story that will leave you wondering: What happens when the walls we build to protect ourselves start to crumble—and what might lie on the other side?
Book 03
Storms & Shadows
Rico has never been alone before. Banished from his pack, he’s cast adrift for the first time in his life, and maybe that’s a relief. After all, being free of the pack’s cruelty and violence should feel like freedom… shouldn’t it? But with every passing day, isolation gnaws at him, and the shadows of his past linger. Who is he without the pack—and without their vicious rules shaping his every move?
When a storm forces him to seek shelter along the Welsh coastline, he doesn’t expect company, let alone Islwyn—a human as warm and open as Rico is guarded and closed off. Islwyn’s trust seems too good to be true, but Rico can’t bring himself to walk away. What does Islwyn see in him? Is it kindness, naivety, or something deeper? And what happens when Islwyn learns the truth about who—and what—Rico really is?
As the tempest outside mirrors the storm within, Rico is faced with questions he’s spent his life avoiding. Can he truly escape his pack’s legacy? Can he trust himself not to hurt the only person who’s ever offered him a second chance? And most importantly, can someone like him—exiled, broken, and dangerous—dare to hope for love?
Stormlight and Shadows is a tale of redemption, raw emotion, and the battle between fear and trust, where even the darkest pasts can find a glimmer of light. But will Rico embrace it, or will the shadows consume him?
Book 04
Blood & Ink
In the rain-soaked alleys of Manchester, tattoo artist Lorcan Allec has always been drawn to the lost and the dangerous. But nothing could have prepared him for Azrikar—a wounded, bloodstained daemon with fire in his eyes and ruin in his touch.
Taking him in was reckless. Letting him stay was foolish. Falling into his bed was inevitable.
Azrikar isn’t just a creature of the night—he’s a force of destruction, hunted by angels and bound by a past darker than sin. And now, with celestial assassins closing in, Lorcan finds himself marked by something far more dangerous than ink.
Desire turns to obsession. Lust tangles with blood. And as the lines between man and monster blur, Lorcan must decide—Is he willing to be ruined?
Because Azrikar doesn’t love. He devours.
Book 05
Ace & Whispers
He doesn’t want sex. He wants something rarer.
When Hale—tattooed, asexual, and heartbreak-worn—moves in with a sharp-eyed witch who reads people better than tarot, neither expects more than quiet cohabitation. But the house they share doesn’t stay quiet for long. Between ghosted touch, charged silences, and a growing need that sidesteps every rule of attraction, the space between them starts to crackle.
This isn’t about sex.
It’s about presence. Power. Consent. Control.
And how even soft things can smolder.
Because asexual doesn’t mean unfeeling—and gentle doesn’t mean tame.
