What if life was a punishment? The Persistence of Reality is a short story that examines the individual's relationship with the persisting collective reality.

What's more powerful than magic? Revenge. King Tristan wasn't prepared for a prisoner quite like Zakara Storm. The three beautiful fae men led her to her imprisonment, and it's hard to see who is a friend and who is a foe in the dangerous and destructive kingdom. A savior is all the humans want. Freedom is what the fae seek. Survival is all Zakara knows. She'll survive, even if she has to watch the whole world burn to ash. Contains mature themes.

The fae world isn't fueled by magic. It's fueled by fear. The Hopeless realm isn't at all what Zakara expected it to be. And neither is she. The powers of the Eminence are hard to harness, and she needs them now more than ever. Survival of the human world suddenly depends on her. But more dangers lurk in the realm than they realize.

If life really was a fairy tale, Zakara would never be the damsel in distress. She'd be a thief, and Prince Charming wouldn't have a clue how to steal the heart of the conniving criminal. Zakara saves not one, but three men locked inside the tallest tower. Her first instinct is to ditch them as soon as possible, but they have one thing that intrigues her more than wealth: Magic. Fae magic once ruled the world, until it disappeared without a trace. Only myths of the magic wielders linger in their destroyed society. The three prisoners claim to be fae, but she doesn't trust them.

War is hell. A war built from reckless fae magic is total annihilation. Even the gods are turning their backs on the dwindling race of mortals. But Kara and her friends refuse to let the world crumble without a fight. An unlikely friend offers them one thing. The mysterious gift might be their last hope. There will be destruction. There will be bloodshed. There will be death. Kara must decide what she's willing to lose to save the ones she loves.  

In a world on the brink of the next Great Dying, no amount of training can prepare us for what is to come.... A young heir will raise the most powerful phantom in all of Baiseen. A dangerous High Savant will do anything to control the nine realms. A mysterious and deadly Mar race will steal children into the sea. And a handsome guide with far too many secrets will make me fall in love. My name is Ash. A lowly scribe meant to observe and record. And yet I think I'm destined to save us all.

I've gotten myself into one last incident. One final mistake that may cost me everything, including my life. By using dark, manipulating magic the Solstice Queen wants to reign over the two Kingdoms and give power back to mages once and for all. I'll stand by her side. I'll smile and wave and say all the right things. All while turning the last remaining mages against her. Because when it all ends, the beloved Solstice Queen won't walk away from the war she started. Unless I die trying.

The beautiful coastal village is too small and it's impossible to hide when you're a target. They know I'm different. They knew when I was a young girl and they know now. They're just waiting for the proof. They're all waiting for me to screw up like I always do. What they don't know is, I'm not staying. I'll take my scowling shifters - hopefully before they literally rip into one of the many hateful villagers - and I'll find the Solstice Queen. I'll find that mysteriously dangerous mage again if it's the last thing I do.

Nothing perfect ever lasts. For the first time in my entire life, I've found a community that accepts me. The village of dragon shifters knows what it's like to be different. These men care about me. And I care about them. I might even love them. Among all that perfection, terror creeps in. It haunts this place during the night. Something dangerous, powerful, and deadly has found these innocent people. And it wants me.
