Josh Davidson has seen it all-in video games and movies, of course, because they would never be anything but fiction. Yet his dreams are slipping into reality, he is experiencing sudden energy surges, and a persistent voice is taking residency in his head. All of the insanity explodes when his bully goes on a murderous rampage, and the only one who can stop him is a beautiful girl wielding a bow and shooting magical ice arrows. The experience leads Josh to the truth: he's a Paladin, someone soul-bound to a dragon. Not only does he now have a dragon reaching into his thoughts, but the new status comes with magical powers meant to help him in his fight against the forces of darkness.

Josh will have to learn fast, because the most important decisions are those he cannot escape. Decisions that risk not only the war which the Paladins fight, but the very people he holds dear. ➢ Word Count: 130,000 - 135,000 ➢ Amazing cover made by Dayisdemigod ➢ Featured in Fantasy account's Young Adult Fantasy Reading List ➢ Featured in YASciFantasy account's Quests & Queens - Fantasy Adventure Reading List ➢ The Fiction Awards 2019 Best Fantasy Winner ➢ Editor's Pick Featured January 2021

Not every villain wanted to be the bad guy. Maria Green's life has been one disaster after another. First it was her abusive parents, then it was developing teleportation, then purposely orphaning herself which took her straight into DCFS custody. Well, maybe the teleportation wasn't so bad. After choosing to run away to escape a group home, Maria and her foster sisters find themselves homeless in New York. Things take a turn when they're caught by a boy they pickpocketed and are forced into a gang. Maria's got one job, keep herself alive and use her powers to help steal or she can die. Simple, right? Maybe not when a guy dressed like a cat decides to insert himself in your criminal activites. Trapped in a deadly fight between hero and villian, there is only one right side. The question is, can Maria figure out which one it is before its too late?
