FANTASY that makes you FEEL

I write Epic Fantasy set in exciting new worlds, and while my stories deliver action, adventure, and magic aplenty, the human condition is the heart and soul of my work.

I’ve always been a voracious reader, but when I couldn’t find enough books to satisfy my cravings, I made my own. I wrote the Empire of Ash series for readers like me…

· Readers that want to escape the real world in long, sweeping stories

· Readers that love complicated characters, who are jointly vulnerable and badass

· Readers that want to discover new races and creatures

· Readers that enjoy a little humor between their adrenaline surges and angst

· Readers that love strong, steamy, slow-burn romance that compliments, not eclipses, the plot

· Readers that want all the aches and triumphs of the human heart served alongside their battles, bloodshed, and magic.

THE EMPIRE of ASH TRILOGY

The EMPIRE of ASH trilogy is a romantic EPIC FANTASY series, featuring new races, magic, triumph, and angst.

LAND OF PERPETUAL NIGHT

SHE’S THE LEGEND WHO WILL DEFY AN EMPIRE OF LIES…SHE JUST DOESN’T KNOW IT YET.

Cadet ranger Troa Travay spends her days arresting outlaws in the wilds of Shinador. Given her squad’s accomplishments while under her command, she’ll someday earn the captainship she dreams of.

For Troa, it’s a perfect life…until she uncovers an insidious plot to assassinate Shinador’s governor, the very man she unwittingly kissed the other night—a ruler the law forbids her from loving. While Troa and her squad investigate, she gains a deadly magical Gift, guaranteed to soon kill her. Worse yet, Imperium law requires she surrender herself to the authorities before she loses her mind and hurts people—as the Gifted always do.

But the magic reveals a tapestry of lies shrouding the world Troa knows, and when she plucks a thread, everything she believed to be true begins to unravel. Now, she finds herself caught in a tangle of deception, betrayal, and slaughter, where right and wrong aren’t mutually exclusive. With her life and all she holds dear hanging in the balance, can she burn through the lies without landing herself in irons? Or will the magic consume her before she uncovers the truth?

The timepiece is ticking.

Land of Perpetual Night is a full-length prequel to the upcoming Empire of Ash trilogy. If you like resilient heroines, fathomless friendships, and a side of steam served with your magic, battles, and heartache, then this gripping story is for you.

This Upper YA/NA series is intended for mature audiences. These books contain violence and sexual situations, some of which may be graphic.

ALL THAT’S LEFT BEHIND

SHE TRIED TO STEAL MAGIC FROM THE WORLD’S EVILEST MAGE, BUT THE POWER BOUND THEM TOGETHER—NOW SHE’S STUCK WITH THE MAN…PERHAPS PERMANENTLY.

Ex-ranger Troa Travay is on a desperate mission to save a loved one—until she and her closest friends are charged with crimes against a ruler and shipped by sea to a brutal prison.

But Troa and her friends aren’t the only convicts aboard the ship. The world’s most dangerous—and obnoxious—man sails with them: Zoranno the Liar, a renegade mage and warmongering murderer.

When the ship wrecks off the coast of a deadly forest, Troa attempts to steal Zoranno’s magic. Instead, wayward powers bind her to the man. With time running out to fulfill Troa’s mission, and Zoranno committed to resurrecting a war, they’re forced to work together to survive a land of untamed magic.

But monsters and ruthless seditionists aren’t the only perils ahead. Troa must navigate her traitorous heart with its unwanted feelings…for the most heinous villain in history. Surrounded by a tapestry of lies, she now faces impossible decisions, and if she makes the wrong choice, she could plunge the world into war.

All That’s Left Behind is the first volume in the Empire of Ash trilogy, an action-packed, character-driven Epic Fantasy series. If you like tenacious heroines, banter, badassery, and battles, served with a steamy helping of hate-to-love romance, this is the book for you.

All That’s Left Behind is an Upper YA / NA title, pairing the close narrative voice and fast pacing of the Young Adult category with mature themes and content. This book contains sexual situations, adult language, and graphic violence. It is intended for mature readers.
