Thadeus is coming… and he brings the Hollows.

The ancient House will fall.

Rune can’t stop him. She can only carry the Remembering.

He doesn’t care who he destroys. The House doesn’t stand a chance.

The Hollows are coming. The Remembering is all that remains.

He survived the fire that should have killed him. Now the past has come for the Alpha.

A reclusive wolf. A mysterious witch. A cult that wants the world’s magic dead.

Twenty-four years of shadows. One choice to burn them away.

From volcano fire to the freezing abyss… the Alpha must lead or the Wild dies.

He was the guardian of the ley lines. He just didn’t know it yet.

If you’ve ever felt you were placed with the wrong family…

Did you grow up sure you didn’t belong—not in your house, not in your time, not in the body everyone else seemed fine with?
If you’ve hunted for that one special spark, because deep down you knew you’d once been something magical—not a freak, not the family outlier, not the kid performing for attention while craving silence—I Used to Be a Mermaid is for you.
Mary Brotherton’s story speaks to anyone who wondered how they could feel so alone and still long for connection with people who get it.
Read the book that says: you’re not alone. You never were.

Blackwood Academy and Revemere were never meant to touch. Two realms divided by lore, loss, and a gap no magic could close. Generation after generation, the Academy’s scholars guarded secrets the other world only dreamed of. On the far shore, Revemere held its breath. And above them both, the ravens kept watch, as if they alone knew what—or who—would finally span the distance.
That someone is Rune Blackwood.
Born of bloodlines the histories tried to erase, Rune is no mere student. She is the bridge both realms have prayed for and one man has spent a lifetime trying to prevent. With her stand the loyal of Blackwood—teachers, allies, and outcasts who refuse to see the Academy fall. With her rise echoes from the past: powers and presences long thought buried, called back when the worlds teeter on the edge of ruin.
Arrayed against them is Thaddeus Blackwood—calculating, relentless, and hungry for the Academy’s heart. He does not want unity. He wants dominion: to break Blackwood, seize its magic, and rewrite the fate of two worlds in his name. If he succeeds, the bridge becomes a weapon. Revemere stays forever out of reach. And the ravens’ long vigil ends in ash.
The prophecy is over. The war has begun.
Will Rune and her people—and the allies time itself sends back—save Blackwood Academy, or will Thaddeus claim everything they were built to protect?
The Ravens will fly.

Lightning tore the sky over Ashborne; the cobblestones still remember the thunder. The word Library burns gold against the stone, a promise that stories—and secrets—outlive the storm. But saving a town is never the end of the story. Is the cost too much? Debts don’t vanish when the clouds roll back. The Collector is already on the road, coming to claim what is due him—and he doesn’t haggle.
Amy stands between her family, her home, and a hunger that wears a polite smile. She isn’t a hero with an army; she has what the last battle left her: wit, scraps of lore, and tools sharp enough to cut—or stitch—where it hurts. The evil isn’t gone. It’s waiting to be paid. Will what she has be enough to surge, stitch, and pin the darkness down before Ashborne pays twice?

Some wounds don’t leave bruises.
They leave silence. Doubt. A quiet voice that says you’re not enough.
The Center of Fire is for the ones who were told they were too much, too little, too sensitive, too broken.
Through searing, honest poems, AL. Nightshade maps the journey from surviving verbal abuse to refusing to let others define your worth. These pages teach you how to protect your self-respect, how to stand strong and brave even when your voice shakes, and how to open your heart to life and love again.
This is the book that meets you in the ashes
and hands you the match.
Rise.
Your fire is still burning.

Ember is in hiding.

She is being watched and hunted.

The watcher has his own agenda.
The hunter wants her terminated.

Who will get to her first?
What does she know?
Who is behind all of it?

In the quiet darkness of a suburban night, one woman holds secrets that powerful people will kill to protect — and destroy to obtain.

The Perimeter is a taut, atmospheric thriller from A.L. Nightshade that follows Ember as she fights to stay hidden while two dangerous men close in with very different motives. As loyalties fracture and hidden agendas surface, the line between protector and predator blurs.

Packed with suspense, moral ambiguity, and shocking twists, The Perimeter keeps readers guessing until the final page.

Perfect for fans of tense psychological thrillers, cat-and-mouse mysteries, and edge-of-your-seat suspense.

If you love stories where no one is safe and everyone has something to hide, The Perimeter is your next obsession.

When the hill goes dark and the sky begins again, so does she.
Reclaiming the Dawn gathers poems that read like letters never sent—to the man at her back in the half-light, to the woman learning to stand in her own silhouette, and to the small hands that pull her toward tomorrow. Romantic, raw, and unapologetically maternal, this collection is for anyone who has loved hard, lost footing, and chosen sunrise anyway.
A.L. Nightshade turns one life into one chorus: husband, self, children—reclaimed, line by line.
