Growing up is a symphony of endings and beginnings, a delicate balance between heartbreak and self-discovery. "Ashes and Echoes" is a collection of poetry that captures the raw, unfiltered emotions of young adulthood: the first loves that set your world on fire, wishful thinking, and the bittersweet journey of finding yourself in the wreckage of the world. Through lyrical verse and intimate storytelling, these poems explore the restless nights, the unanswered messages, the weight of the world, and defiant hope and nostalgia that comes with healing. Each page is a reflection of what it means to love recklessly, to break beautifully, and to rise from the ashes of who you once were. For anyone who has ever felt lost, for those learning to stand on their own, "Ashes and Echoes" is a reminder that this is not the end, but it’s the beginning of something even more powerful: you.

~ Rowena "My ancestors stood shoulder to shoulder with the founders of Glenmorvane, centuries ago. Yet, in a cruel twist of fate, my family and I have been reduced to nothing more than hunted prey, subjected to unimaginable torture and brutality. My kind has been all but exterminated, and my sister was burned alive at the stake. Consumed by a burning desire for vengeance, I now live for one purpose alone: to unleash my wrath upon the world that wronged me, one devastating spell at a time." ~ Emris "We're the blighters responsible for the utter misery and suffering that's ravaging the globe, old chap. I've got everything one could possibly desire - wealth, power, the whole shebang. And yet, my dear, all I seem to be hankering after is... you. I daresay you must be wondering why on earth I've chosen to spare your life. Why I haven't, shall we say, indulged in your... particular brand of sustenance. Well, my dear, it's quite simple really. There's something dashedly special about you, and soon you’ll find out." ~ Irene "I'm so... done. I should've ended it all when I had the chance. But no, I hesitated. And now... now I'm paying the price. We've always been prey to them, and I'm no exception. I'm just a fragile, foolish, complicated thing... and I'm so tired of fighting. Tired of running. Tired of being hunted. I can’t wait for him to kill me and task my body with the rest… I’m exhausted

She thought she had everything—a strong mate, a respected title, and a place to call home. But beneath the surface, her world was crumbling. Her mate, Alpha Damian Blackwood, only married her because fate demanded it. He never loved her. He never wanted her. And when she failed to conceive an heir after three years, he found comfort in another woman—Lillith Vaughn, the beautiful and cunning she-wolf who had been Selene’s closest friend. The ultimate betrayal came when Lillith announced she was carrying Damian’s child. But before Selene could process the pain, she was framed for killing the unborn pup.
