"It's unlike any paranormal book I've read--very smart, very fresh, and very addictive, and very still in my mind." –And Anything Bookish In 1692, when witch trials gripped the community of Salem, Massachusetts, twenty-six children were accused as witches, exiled, and left for dead. Fourteen of them survived.

Sadie is thrown toward an uncertain future filled with cunning witches, mysterious nosferatu shape-shifters, dangerous eretica and vieczy vampires, millennia-old mythology, and the search for her own mortality. After all… HOW DO YOU KILL A SURVIVOR? The Survivors will steal your heart and invade your mind.

In the summer of 1918 a tragedy echoed across the world when the Russian Imperial Romanov family was murdered by communists leaving much of the country crying out in mourning. Yet, there was a myth that one daughter, the youngest daughter; the Grand Duchess Anastasia had escaped. Though many disbelieved, for some this would prove to be more than a rumor and it would change their lives forever. Annalisa Peterson, a senior in high school, is dying to get out and move as far away from her family as possible. Not that she has had a rough childhood, but she wants to get away from constantly being expected to be the perfect A student and consistently having to visit her great grandmother who doesn't seem to like her, and oh yeah, doesn't speak a word of English. One final class assignment could change everything that she's ever known, and could literally re-write history. To find out the truth about her family's history, it isn't long before she's digging through old papers, books, photographs, and even travelling to Russia; not to mention getting her heart tangled up with the enemy along the way. As Annalisa finds out more and more, she's quickly discovering that once the real truth is out, her entire life will be turned upside down, and life will become much more dangerous for her, and those around her. Secrets are revealed. Questions are answered. One thing is certain; Annalisa never thought that her senior year would end like this.

​Aylaina MacLeod is a time traveler whose inaugural journey catapults her not to her intended destination, but deep into the 12th century. Landing squarely in the heart of Sherwood Forest, she finds herself thrust into a version of the Robin Hood legend that defies everything she previously knew. ​As Aylaina is drawn into the fold of the Merry Men, she must navigate the complexities of a past she is attempting to reshape. Her primary objective is clear: to right the wrongs of history by altering the course of events that lead to tragedy. ​I've reimagined the iconic figures from the 2006 BBC Robin Hood series, offering a fresh take on our beloved characters: ​Sir Guy of Gisborne: Moving away from a purely dark, Twilight-esque portrayal, this version of Guy is a deeply tortured and brooding soul. However, upon meeting Aylaina, a softer, hidden side of his personality begins to emerge, I try to stay true to the nuance and depth originally brought to the screen by Richard Armitage. ​The Merry Men: The story captures the authentic voices and dynamics of the series' core cast, immersing the reader in the camaraderie and high-stakes environment of Sherwood Forest. ​Note from the Author (Jeannie): This work serves as an expansion and reimagining, specifically incorporating the narrative arc of the final two episodes of the BBC series, "Something Worth Fighting For." I acknowledges the original creation rights belong to the BBC and Tiger Aspect.
