The Iron Crystal
4 primary works Complete
Book 1
To trust him would be foolish—but to betray him would be deadly, in a decadent and dark fantasy romance between a tyrant and his captive for fans of Raven Kennedy, LJ Andrews, and Elise Kova.
Unwillingly transported to the magical realm of Avalon, Gwen finds herself in the hands of its dark and beautiful ruler—the reviled Prince in Iron, Mordred. Unlike his uncle, the King Arthur of legend, Mordred is feared as a tyrant, trapping anyone with magic in an enchanted crystal prison.
When Gwen is captured after discovering her own magical talents, she strikes a deal with Mordred's enemy, seeing no other way to escape. If she can seduce the prince, gaining his trust then breaking the crystal, they will show her how to use her magic to return home.
Only Mordred shows a strange gentleness to Gwen. He even allows her to join his court, treating her as a treasured guest. And despite promising each day to imprison her in the crystal, he only draws her closer, fanning the flames of desire between them into an inferno. But how long will his love last when he discovers her betrayal?
Book 2
“Run, Gwen. Run as far and as hard as you can. Because when I catch you… You will belong to me.”
When she shattered the Iron Crystal and returned magic to Avalon, Gwen also shattered Mordred’s heart. Torn between her passion for Mordred and his rage at her betrayal, she fled into the wilds.
Gwen’s choice has transformed Avalon, and the island teems with magical wonders freed from the crystal. But Gwen also released the vicious and chaotic elementals. Desperate for revenge against Mordred, some of them see Gwen as an ally, others as a hostage.
Now, the Prince in Iron hunts Gwen relentlessly, though at night he visits her in dreams, unable to break the desire that binds them. She is his weakness. If his enemies captured her, he knows that he would make any deal, break any vow to return her to his side.
As the elementals prepare for battle, Gwen will face an impossible choice. Can she stand by as Avalon’s magic is destroyed once again? Or will she fight to overthrow the man she loves?
Building from slow-burn to steam, the Iron Crystal series is packed with alluring villains, dark magic and heart-stopping twists. If you’re a fan of Sarah J. Maas, Laura Thalassa and Carissa Broadbent, To Bind a Dark Heart will have you reading late into the night.
Book 3
He was kissing her with a fury that threatened to devour her. She needed this. Needed the wrath and the desire. One last time.

Passion still burns fiercely between Mordred and Gwen. But the dark prince crushes his emotions and tells Gwen that he is sending her home. That she will never see Avalon—or him—again.
But Avalon has ideas of its own. The magic of the island draws Gwen back and gifts her with stunning new abilities.
Gwen has one last chance to save the island from a devastating war that would destroy everything—and everyone—she has come to love. But can she tame Mordred’s rage and pride? And can a demon ever be trusted?
