G.A. Aiken

G.A. Aiken, the bestselling author behind tales of dragons, warriors, and wild adventures, has spent her life weaving stories filled with fierce characters and intense emotions. Residing on the West Coast, G.A. is as passionate about her writing as she is about her rescue Pittie, whose mission in life is to spread love—albeit in a way that might smother you with affection.

Known for her vivid worlds where dragons rule, but not without chaos, humor, and fiery passion, G.A. Aiken’s writing captures the gritty, no-holds-barred nature of fantasy with a boldness that feels uniquely hers. Her series, full of sex appeal, strong-willed heroines, and predators of all kinds, draws readers into a whirlwind of action, romance, and jaw-dropping twists.

Under the name Shelly Laurenston, G.A. also writes stories that channel the same fierce energy but with a focus on wolves, tigers, lions, and other creatures that defy the ordinary. Whether you’re lost in the thrilling battle of survival or caught up in the sizzling dynamics of animalistic relationships, G.A.’s books invite you to embrace your wild side.

Her love of storytelling is rivaled only by her affection for her characters—both the flawed and the fantastic. It’s this devotion that has made her one of the most captivating voices in the fantasy and paranormal romance genres. When she’s not writing about dragons and their sizzling exploits, you can bet she’s making sure her Pittie stays out of trouble.

With each new release, G.A. Aiken delivers an experience—fierce, fun, and impossible to forget.

The Scarred Earth Saga

In The Scarred Earth Saga, G.A. Aiken weaves a brutal, vibrant world where survival is a struggle, power is in constant flux, and the line between hero and villain is often a shadow. Set in a land scarred by centuries of conflict, where kingdoms crumble and armies clash, this series isn’t just about grand battles—it’s about the characters who emerge from them, shaped by trauma, loyalty, and love.

At the heart of the saga is a cast of fierce, complex women who refuse to be silenced or subdued by the world around them. These women are warriors, leaders, and survivors—each with her own painful history and a determination that could shift the fate of the entire world. In a land torn by magic, monsters, and political intrigue, they will have to navigate perilous alliances, face down ruthless enemies, and confront the darkness within themselves to change the course of history.

Aiken's world-building is immersive and unapologetically gritty, filled with rich histories, complex cultures, and an array of magical and mythological creatures that feel alive and dangerous at every turn. Each location, from battle-scarred cities to untamed wilderness, pulses with tension, as though the land itself is still healing from centuries of wounds. But it's the relationships—both tender and fierce—that truly shine. The characters are marked by their flaws, their battles with their inner demons, and the unexpected friendships that emerge in the face of overwhelming odds.

The Scarred Earth Saga is not for the faint of heart. It’s a story where the cost of loyalty is high, and the price of defying the powers that be may be your very soul. Each book layers in more complexity, as characters face betrayals, hard choices, and the weight of legacies that refuse to die. With action that keeps readers on the edge of their seats, and a world that feels as alive as the characters themselves, this series is a thrilling exploration of power, sacrifice, and the bonds that can both break and save us.

For fans of epic fantasy with a strong dose of grit, intrigue, and heart, The Scarred Earth Saga offers an unforgettable journey where nothing—and no one—stays the same for long. The battles are fierce, the stakes are high, and the twists will keep you coming back for more.
