Love Stories for Those Who Refuse to Make Themselves Small
Welcome to the Ayaverse
Many of the series and stories on this site were dreamed up years ago. I’ve been writing for over 20 years, and I’m finally bringing these worlds to life and shaping them into stories for readers to enjoy.
​
Most of these projects are still in development and will be explored more fully in the future. Right now, my main focus is the Hartgrave Tellers (HGT) series, Raithsworn, and Into the Stratosphere, realesing on July 31.
​
Check back often to discover new blurbs, sneak peeks, and updates on my works-in-progress, and to see what I’m creating next.
The Hartgrave Tellers Series
They built a band together. A dream. A legacy. But behind the fame was something heartbreakingly real, something neither of them were ready to face.​
Emma Hartgrave is the magnetic frontwoman of the Hartgrave Tellers, the most talked-about band in the world. For seven years, she has survived the chaos of fame, relentless media scrutiny, and the suffocating expectations placed on her as both a performer and a brand. At the center of her life and career is Liam Teller, her co-frontman, creative partner, and the one man she has never been able to fully have, despite loving him from the very beginning.
​
Bound by a predatory contract with Titan Records that forbids a band breakup and punishes scandal, Emma and Liam have spent years denying what exists between them. Instead, they channel it into their music, creating a volatile creative partnership that fuels their success while slowly breaking them both.
​
A modern-day Fleetwood Mac story of love, longing, and fame, where trauma, power, and passion collide in ways they can no longer outrun.​
Into the Stratosphere
Brie Emerson didn’t sign up to live in a city that doubles as a super-powered warzone, but that’s Mercer City for you. Between chasing deadlines as a senior editor for Epoch Magazine, managing a chronic illness, and dodging alien debris, she’s just trying to keep her life mostly intact.
​
Then there’s him.
The cape in white, blue and gold. Stratos. The world’s most powerful, and most infuriatingly private, superhero.
​
When a chance rescue lands Brie in his path, she starts to notice things no one else does. The human cracks in his perfect façade, the secrets hiding behind his mask… and the infuriatingly familiar way he makes her pulse race.
​
Alex Theron has spent years keeping his identities separate. Alex, the quiet scientist with a brother who meddles in his love life too much, and Stratos, the last of an alien race with enough power to destroy a planet.
But Brie is sharp, relentless, and far too tempting. And when she starts asking questions about certain weather anomalies, she gets dangerously close to the truth he swore he’d never share.
​
As Mercer City teeters on the brink, hunted by monsters, haunted by conspiracies, Brie and Alex are drawn together in a storm neither of them saw coming.
​
Because falling in love with a superhero?
That’s the one story Brie never expected to write.
Raithsworn:A Tale of Ghosts and Gods
Book One: Whispers and Wind
​
In a world ruled by false gods and forged lies, rebellion rises on wings of flame.​​
​
There are whispers in the wind, of gods long vanished, of kingdoms lost to ash, and of shadows that still remember.
In a world where magic is outlawed, beasts are bound, and the stars no longer speak, something ancient stirs. The old blood runs deep in forgotten places, and not all who bow are broken.
The Vye'Raiths,
Raithsworn rebels have waited.
For reckoning.
For return.
For the one who will rise.
The Empire thinks the war is over.
But stories are dangerous things.
And this one is just beginning.
​
Strike first. Burn last. Never fall. Leave none behind.
That is the way of the Raiths.
The Veilfire Accords Series
​
She was never meant to survive the rite. He was never meant to be king. Together, they’ll set fire to fate itself.
​
The Vielfire Accords Universe is a romantasy saga blending modern grit with mythic weight. It explores the fractured alliances of mythic and magical races and peoples, courts and territories, between 13 realms struggling to uphold the Veilfire Accords, the ancient treaty that prevents realms from collapsing into war.
​
At its heart is Callia Blackburn, reluctant heir to House Blackburn, and Eryx Virael, an exiled Veilborn prince bound by shadow and storm. Their forbidden bond could either mend the balance, or shatter it forever.
​
Tone: Crescent City + Throne of Glass + ACOTAR, but darker, sharper, and blood-soaked.
​
​
​​​
Calia Blackburn is the youngest mage in centuries to survive the Rite of Binding and summon her destined weapon. What should have been a triumph becomes a scandal when the blades she calls are not merely legendary, they are cursed, tied to the Sundering Wars and the lost Thirteenth House. The Houses whisper she’s a child, unfit for power. Her mother insists she hide her strength. But the Accord demands she serve.
​
And then the girls start dying on the ley lines.
​
Eryx of House Virael, exiled prince, stormborn, and executioner of dragons, shouldn’t care. For six centuries he’s turned his back on thrones and wars. But when the deaths trace back to the same shadows that exiled him, and when the mage who carries the Twin Blades of Destiny and Ruin is the only one standing in their path… Eryx cannot stay away.
​
Together, Calia and Eryx must navigate Veilborn politics, Drakoryn traditions, Fenrir pack rules and the resurgence of the Dark Triad. But if the truth of their past bond and the Dark Triads legacy comes to light, the Accords themselves could shatter, igniting a war that will burn all realms.
​

Siren City: Siren's Curse
Elizabeth Carver has spent years running, from her past, from the truth, and most of all, from her mother.
​
Seven years ago, Elizabeth Carver had everything, even a ring on her finger from rising star detective Reilly Stanton. But her world shattered when her mother, Lilith Carver, New Port’s most esteemed socialite and celebrated psychologist, was unmasked as a serial killer. The media dubbed her the most dangerous woman the City of Sirens had ever seen. Reilly barely survived the betrayal. And Elizabeth has been paying for it ever since.​​
Haunted by her bloodline and desperate to make amends, Elizabeth has become a vigilante, hunting those who prey on innocent women and children, killers like her mother. Drawn to darkness and possessing an uncanny ability to find it, El’s work has kept her far from New Port… until now.
​
When a woman turns up dead with a signature eerily similar to her current target’s MO, Elizabeth is dragged back to the one place she swore she’d never return. Back to the city of sirens. Back to him.
​
To stop a killer, El must navigate the shadows of her past and the glare of a former lover who wants nothing to do with her...or everything.
Reilly Stanton is lead on the case… and her mother's last victim.
​
In a city that sings with magic, secrets, and seduction, Elizabeth must decide if she’s ready to face her demons, or become one.
