Split Blood: Rise of the Wolf (Book #2 in the Split Blood Series) has been published!

SPLIT BLOOD: RISE OF THE WOLF (the 2nd book in the Split Blood Series) is now published in eBook Format and is available for purchase on Amazon Kindle and Smashwords.

Please keep checking for the Paperback Edition on Amazon as it will be available before Sunday 22nd December 2013.


Book Description

‘You are the oil to my fire and no one will ever extinguish us’ 

Enya said as she stroked the scar, which reminds him of his horrific childhood.
Lowell was always the outcast in his pack. Coming from a poor, abusive background, the only attention he knew was when his father used him in illegal Lycan fights. He never knew what love was until he met werewolf, Enya.

Experiencing a similar, isolated upbringing, Enya was the glue that helped Lowell stick together. She was intoxicating to him and he was her addiction. With every second they spent together, they gave each other the rush they needed - Unfortunately, this union was not to last as the rules of the Aliis World clearly state that Lycans are forbidden to communicate, let alone be romantically involved with werewolves.

So what happens when Lycan, Lowell tries to fight his attraction for lower class werewolf, Enya? And can they escape the wrath of vengeful witch, Raven when she finds out Lowell is partly to blame for her sister, Faith’s disappearance?

SEVERELY THOUGHT PROVOKING WITH A STING OF ROMANCE,

SPLIT BLOOD: RISE OF THE WOLF IS A DELICATE TALE OF LOVE, LOSS AND VENGEANCE WITH A BITE

SPLIT BLOOD: THE ANCIENT CODEX - PART ONE
(Book #1 in the Split Blood Series)

When Faith’s mother starts organising the second stage of her arranged marriage to wizard, Damien, Faith knew she needed to escape, so she used her school as a place to retreat.


Throughout her after school duties, she meets the intense, alluring Rohan, who changes her life forever.

With his ice cold skin, transfixing eyes and enchanting voice, Rohan took hold of Faith’s heart and soul as soon as they looked at each other.

She knew it was wrong.

They were from two different circles and if the Elder’s found out, the consequences would be catastrophic for all involved, but the more time they spent together, the stronger they’re love grew, until one day someone sees them...

Will their love be strong enough to combat their conflicting mythical needs? And what will they do when Faith is dealt a life threatening blow that forces her to make a heartbreaking decision?

INTENSELY PASSIONATE WITH EXTRAORDINARY TWISTS AND TURNS, SPLIT BLOOD IS A LOVE STORY WITH A DARK MYTHICAL DIFFERENCE



THE ORCUS GAMES: BLOOD MOON
(Book #1 in The Orcus Games Trilogy)

THIS FULL BOOK IS FREE ON AMAZON KINDLE, SMASHWORDS AND WATTPAD!

Guilty until you survive all zones…The Orcus Games is ready to put you on trial…

The lives of a witch and wizard couple, a new vampire and a rogue lycan intertwine in three magical tales of love, loss and revenge.

The Craft - When witch and wizard couple, Heather and Phoenix make that fatal mistake on that, ‘Blood Moon’ night, they never thought they would be forced to working with a loner lycan but…is he the only one who saw the, ‘accidental’ fatal act?

The Clan – Ardan would do anything for his wife and daughter but he could not protect them from the new blood thirsty life that was about to be bestowed onto them but what happens when he risks his immortal life for them?

The Pack – Caleb was always the lycan that wanted more! With constant schemes and risky deals, to increase the potential of a better lifestyle, he thought his latest underground deal was the perfect idea, until he loses more than just his money…

The first book in the prequel to the, ‘Split Blood’ series, this novella is a mind-blowing magical tale of belonging, sacrifice and revenge…The Orcus Games: Blood Moon will drag you, kicking and screaming, on this deadly journey with the ill-fated prisoners.



THE ORCUS GAMES: MISTRESS V
(Book #2 in The Orcus Games Trilogy)

The Underworld has no fury like Mistress V scorned...

Mistress V had it all…looks, power within the vampire clan and men at her disposal but she wanted more.

She wanted Ardan, to be precise.

He was unlike any other vampire she had turned before and she wanted him, needed him and was determined to do anything to get him…

Frustrated by his lack of interest and constant rejection, Mistress V is dealt another blow as Ardan is accused of a crime and is thrown into The Orcus Games, leaving her to watch her obsession fight for his life, whilst witnessing a second by second account of his budding friendship with fellow vampire contestant, Luan.

Unable to admit defeat, Mistress V plots and plans ways of getting to her man before it was too late but with every minute he is in the show, he grows closer to Luan, enraging Mistress V, leaving her to become more erratic and mentally disturbed, which has disastrous results…

The second book in the prequel to the, ‘Split Blood’ series, this novella is a deliciously dark tale of power, lust and obsession…The Orcus Games: Mistress V will leave you licking your lips, thirsty for more…



THE ORCUS GAMES: NEW AWAKENING
(Book #3 in The Orcus Games Trilogy)

You can run but you can’t hide…

Escaping The Orcus Games, each of the fugitive’s dreams of a happy reunion with loved ones are short lived as they each find out there is a bounty on each of their lives.

Ardan finally accepts his new life as a vampire and enlists the help of Cathal, the vampire leader of the district, to help him make a proposal to the Elders so he can live…but what ulterior motives does Cathal have?

Heather and Phoenix return to their coven, only to find they have moved. After much searching, they find their circle and are reunited with their daughters. They beg their coven to hide them but why is the Grand Witch so reluctant to agree with the plan?

And with Mistress V agreeing to marry Cathal, have the damned foursome finally found peace and safety? Or is there one more ‘hurricane’ coming to destroy all they hold dear?

The last book in the prequel to the, ‘Split Blood’ series, this novella is an enticing end to a tantalising fantasy trilogy…The Orcus Games: New Awakening gives you the electrifying conclusion, with a seductive surprise, to keep your blood flowing for another possible bite…

About Me

As I have set a menu bar (due to popular request! lol), I realised that I had not created a personal 'about me' page, so here it goes...

I currently live in North London, England, and have always enjoyed writing stories which would take people to different, magical worlds.

Along with writing, I also love to indulge in my confectionery addiction - pear drop sweets and am a fan of 80s Fantasy films such as 'Legend', 'Dark Crystal' and 'Labyrinth'.

I also adore Guillermo del Toro for his direction on the fantasy film, 'Pan's Labyrinth', which epitomises the theme of my books - fantasy escapism, strong female heroines, unique magical side characters with their own explosive, taboo secrets and deliciously dark situations, which have a new style of distinctive paranormal conclusions.

I use my passion for fantasy films, and music, to help me create my unique YA, Fantasy stories and I have been able to use these passions to enhance my stories even further by attaching music onto my stories on Wattpad, which helps the reader be further immersed into my fantasy worlds.

Jump on the broomstick and Join the Split Blood magical journey from the beginning...

Self published authors get a rough deal, don’t they?

If it is not complaint’s in negative reviews about weak storylines, no character development, spelling mistakes, grammar and punctuation problems, etc; it is bloggers, newspapers or radio, who will not touch a self published author because it is inconceivable that there could be a diamond in the rough just waiting to shine!

However, so far, the reviews I have received for my recently published stories (Split Blood: The Ancient Codex - Part One and The Orcus Games trilogy) have been fantastically positive and my readers have so far enjoyed these unique YA Fantasy storylines.

It is because of this positive feedback that I ask for your support in helping me complete the ‘Split Blood’ series with the same high quality and distinctive storylines by donating only $1 (to help reach the $5,000 goal) on either RocketHub, Indiegogo or Kickstarter.



I would really like to complete this series as it would show that not all self published authors produce below average books and that we do not need to suffer the pain of constant rejection from the traditional literary agencies to show we can produce an amazing YA Fantasy book series by going off the traditional route!

I have attempted to create a promotional video to show the current constraints of my budget, however, with your help this magical experience could be so much more!



How the Contributions will be used?

1) Editing and proofreading the other 5 books in the series so I can publish them quicker

2) Book trailer for the 1st and 2nd book in the 'Split Blood' series (pre production, hiring equipment to film the trailer, post production)

3) Marketing (book covers for the 5 books in the series, promotional work, etc)

In order to make these dreams into a reality, I ask for support with funding these projects from you!

Whether it be $1 or $500, every penny will help!

To donate funds to these projects, please press the PayPal button to the right hand side of the page and be a part of this unique YA Fantasy revolution from the beginning.

Thank you so much for your support, be one of the 1st to join the ‘Split Blood’ revolution and do not forget to get your perks for contributing to this amazing YA Urban Fantasy Romance journey!

Split Blood: The Ancient Codex - Part One First Book Review

Well this is a special day for me as not only am I stuffing my face with Easter Eggs...I have received my first book review and I am so happy with the comments!

EK Ellis has kindly reviewed my first YA Urban Fantasy Romance novel and has given it 4 out of 5 stars along with some wonderful feedback.

'There are many mystical elements in Split Blood: The Ancient Codex, not your habitual vampire, werewolf, gang' EK Ellis

'Fairies, (an interesting twist) witches, werewolves, vampires, all coagulate to add in this boiling pot of characters' EK Ellis

'The romantically aspects between Faith & Rohan, nicely woven and you actually feel for the characters' EK Ellis

'I have to say Split Blood comes across as an adventurous attempt to add new and different elements to genre that is slowly wearing thin' EK Ellis

RIP James Herbert

Being one of my favourite authors, and one who inspired me to start writing, I was shocked and saddened to hear James Herbert died yesterday, aged 69.

I was a little late reading his work (I started in my late teens) but his writing always sent me to the situation he created, usually leaving me wanting to the keep the lights on and jumping at every shadow that appeared!

His descriptive skills were so fantastic that I thought, 'if someone can make my emotions change so quickly, there must be something in this writing stuff'!' lol.

I started to get hooked on James Herbert's books after reading, 'The Rats' but it wasn't until I read, 'Others' that I realised he was in my top 3 favourite authors and that's when I started creating some outlines for my own stories.

I always thought, 'if I could make my readers feel half of emotions I want them to feel when reading my own work, it would feel like a major achievement!' and now hearing this sad news, I really hope this can happen for my future work and would love to dedicate the first book of my next novella trilogy to the man who helped me form the strange worlds and weird characters I write about in my books.

RIP James Herbert, you will be missed! :(

Change of Heart? The Split Blood Prequel Novella Trilogy is here!

Quickly realising that they could get further if they worked together, witch and wizard couple, Heather and Phoenix form an alliance with vampires, Ardan and Luan, along with rogue werewolf, Caleb.

But what happens when a surprise addition enters the group? What is she hiding? And what does she have in common with Caleb?

Slight Delay on the Novella Trilogy...

Hello everyone,

Apologies but I have had to delay the release of the Split Blood Novella Trilogy Prequel by two weeks.

I want the books to perfectly represent the years before the 1980s where the first Split Blood novel starts from.

I also want to make sure that each book (although part of a trilogy) stands out by itself, ensuring that my readers get a taste of all aspects of the, 'Aliis World' and the characters within it.

Unlike the Split Blood series, the Novella Trilogy has not been designed to fit into the Young Adult Genre as I wanted to make it more of a Fantasy Romance Trilogy, as the Split Blood series is designed to appeal to YA fans, so if you are looking for strange, mythical fantasy creatures and environments, magical action, paranormal romance scenes and whitty, strong characters then this Novella Trilogy is for you.

However, if you are looking for a sexy, romantic, fierce YA Paranormal novel with werewolves, vampires, witches and fairies battling their circles rules, and their own inner turmoil, then the Split Blood series is for you!

Hope you enjoy both! :)
