- Mirrorfall: Ash & Blue, #1
1
Stef Mimosa doesn't remember dying as a child, it's always just been a strange dream of drowning and darkness. What she does remember is the angel who saved her. Agent Ryan never thought Stef would remember him. Agents are designed to fade into the background, to do their duty and move on without making too many ripples. Stef's a messy little ripple he never expected. A recruit who can't keep her shoes clean for half an hour, but attentive to every detail and fact about magic that he can impart. In a world where magic and tech play in harmony, an angel and a loner might be the family each other needed.

Stef died, and Ryan made a wish. A week ago, Ryan didn't have an adopted daughter. A week ago, he had routine, and a life of distanced relationships with everyone in his Agency. Stef changed everything - and now she's somewhere between life and death, and it's so hard to hold onto hope. In a strange empty world, Stef starts to collect her own memories, each piece filling in details of what had been a sad, lonely life - but maybe one that didn't stay lonely. Ressurection isn't easy, and change is harder.
- Newbie: Ash & Blue
Curt's first days as a recruit aren't easy. All he can hope is that the transfer to Brisbane is a real second chance, and not going from the frying pan to the fire.
- Screen Saver: Ash & Blue
Welcome, Old Friends and New Recruits If you know why you're here and what's going on, head on in. Grab a bean bag from Jonesy, a cookie from Stef and a glare from Taylor. If you're new - either you were gifted this ebook, or someone threw it at you with the vague-but-insistent command to "just read it!", then here's a bit of an introduction. This is a short story in the world of Ash & Blue, a nerdy urban fantasy series, mostly focussed on a group that could be best described as the Men in Black, but for magical stuff. Some of these shorts work okay as standalone contemporary fantasy stories - but most rely on at least some context from the main series. Luckily, you can start reading the series for free at AshandBlue.com - and we hope you enjoy your stay. Well, most of us do, Taylor's just going to glare at you regardless. --- Screen Saver After a boring day preparing a new network, Screen returns to her workplace, and walks into a hostage situation. Hiding in the storage area, she contacts the Agency, and Jones rushes to organise a rescue before all of her coworkers are killed or taken into Faerie.
- Mirrorshades: Ash & Blue, #3

Stef has a chunk of dead planet where her heart should be. A piece of mirror able to grant wishes, powerful enough to end the world. Naturally, the Agency is wary of such a resource and likes it tightly controlled. In Stef's case, that means becoming an agent - a dream come true for her, becoming something that's equal parts magic and technology. Becoming someone who can play video games in their head - if Ryan doesn't lock down the parental controls. It's not one simple button though, and on top of the endless tests, the accidental tweaks of code that leave her unable to see or move, there's a stack of paperwork as tall as she is.
- The Twisted Heart: Ash & Blue
The Twisted Heart Seven years before she finds Ryan again, Stef is given a choice by her father: straighten up and fly right...or lose everything.
- Grit and Dust: Ash & Blue
Grit and Dust Magnolia collects some old photos from the Agency where she grew up.
- The Auction: Ash & Blue
Six Months Before Mirrorfall An auction is being held, where angels fear to tread. Curt and Magnolia are sent into a lawless part of Faerie to bid on, and rescue, a kidnapped agent. And for the daughter of the Magpie queen and an ex-Solstice, things are never easy. Novella: 38k words
