“When you can’t trust your own mind….”
Amber wakes up on a hostile planet she doesn’t recognize with a “man” at her side who shifts into a demon warrior when attacked.
He claims to know her, and is her only defence against the hostile elements and creatures they are confronted with as they move towards a place of safety. She has no choice but to trust him despite the deep-seated feeling that something is amiss and he is her enemy, not her saviour.
When the pieces of her fragmented mind begin to slowly return, each revelation is more shocking than the last, plummeting her into foreign worlds ruled by beings that defy the depths of her imagination.
Grappling with the knowledge of a new solar system and the existence of magic would be difficult enough for the amnesiac, but Amber cannot fathom the choices she has made, the allegiances she has struck and her obscure role in the lives of those who claim to love her.
“When everything you desire is strictly Forbidden…”
Everything about young Samantha’s life since the devastation of Earth and the move to a new solar system sees to be forbidden. Despite her family’s protests, she has take a job in the household of the widowed young overload and alien Prince Shihlo of Throm – the rebellious planetary leader who was partly responsible for the annihilation of Earth and fully responsible for being the most intoxicating, magnetic creature she has ever met. She spends her days in his Royal circle, watching as wars and treaties are declared and alliances are broken within the federation of 8.
To keep her mind off her growing love for her unattainable employer she unwittingly befriends the young peace keeping leader of the Federation of planets and finds herself thrown into the secret world of those who are forbidden to practice magic.

“When you don’t know what your searching for…”
Whyle of Throm, one of four in the constitutional Monarchy, is tasked with his most difficult assignment yet:
“Return to the husk of Earth that was destroyed by your design and collect Amber’s stranded sister, before the Yimmyrd locate her and end her life.”
He embarks on the mission to find her with his usual cold hearted determination and enters an apocalyptic mess. Earth survivors were never part of his plan and finding scavenging, depraved humans, living in armageddon madness was the last thing he expected to encounter.
In the wreckage and madness of the cult driven survivors upon Earth, he finds the beautiful, strong Jade, who will not leave until she has completed a mission given to her by the Father of Magic.
He stays with her, protects her, and longs to take her home to Throm, but knows that when they leave Earth, she will learn that the alien that came to save her was also the one who destroyed her home.
She had been taught from the moment her breasts began to grow that she needed to hide the things away that may make men desire her. The modesty and sobriety of a decent woman rested in her hands. Men were hapless; they reacted to a woman’s wiles despite their desire for goodness.

She wears their uniform on her body and obeys their rules with all her heart, terrified that any deviation will cause the loss of her salvation. A chance meeting throws her into the world of redemption-seeking nephilim. Six brothers who fight against their own kind in the hopes that they too will see eternal grace. Immortal, god like, powerful and tantalising, they sweep Salome off her feet and hurtle her into a world where the line between the faithful good and decadent evil is blurred…..
