Just when he thought he’d found his place, a human girl named Daisy crashed into his world, challenging everything he thought he knew about love, destiny, and the bond that ties souls together. But not all storms are weathered in daylight. As shadows begin to stir around his future, Colton must decide whether to follow the path laid out for him… or carve one through the darkness.

Alliance of Shadows, Book 5: LEIF
Reads
I didn't need saving. I needed someone who wouldn't flinch when they saw the whole truth. Falling for Dreson was the easiest thing I’ve ever done. His laughter, his quiet steadiness—it felt like sunlight after too many years lost in the dark. He never pushed. Never pried. Just held space for me in a way no one ever had. But safety doesn't silence ghosts. And mine don't knock before kicking the door in. Now Dreson is asking questions. And I’m the only one who holds the answers that could shatter the fragile peace I’ve built. I never thought I'd be loved by a man who chose me—trauma, scars, secrets and all. I never expected to find a family that saw me not as broken, but as theirs. But now everything I’ve buried is clawing its way to the surface. And this time, I won’t run. Not from my past. Not from my pain. And not from the life that’s finally mine to claim.
