Now, the queen of her alien civilization has placed a deadly bounty on her head-and humanity itself is in the crosshairs. To protect her kids and the world she's come to love, Zora must face the enemies she thought she left behind, confront the secrets of her past, and awaken powers she never knew she had.

She only sought freedom through music. He sought to possess her because of it. - A young girl was abandoned and trapped within the confines of a popular brothel named The Flower's Garden. With a burst of courage, she and two other girls planned their escape. Yet their defiance was met with death and ruin - their bodies left to freeze beside the morning trash. But Daniel Wellinger, a respected apothecary, found one of the girls alive and took her home. He nursed her back to health and gave her a new name, a new life - Deborah. Despite the prejudices of the land of Fantasia, Deborah grew like a flower under Daniel's protective care. She learned his apothecary craft and became a prodigy in violin playing. Her music tickled the ears of Duke Markus Beaufort, a sickly noble haunted by inner demons. Her songs soothed him, but what began as fascination soon curdled into obsession. During an outing with her father, Deborah captures the attention of Jonah Watson, the son of a wealthy doctor. A tender connection blooms between them. But will their budding love survive in a society bound by class and prejudice? From the shadows, Markus watches, unwilling to let her go. Deborah had once saved his life, and now, in his mind, she belonged to him. He has one goal: "I must destroy her if I'm to have her." Torn between a man who'd do anything for her and a man who'd do anything to get her, Deborah must fight for the career, freedom, and love she truly deserves. But after surviving the darkness once before, can she face it again without losing herself? #1 in Girl 1/24/26 #1 in Historical Fiction #1 in Sociopath 11/30/25 #1 in Safe Love 2/16/26 #1 in Jealousy 3/9/26 *Cover created and edited in Canva

But what if she thought completely wrong? Abel Westbrook, a God-fearing military man, breaks the barrier Reign has around herself and shows her all God has planned for her, which includes marrying him... a month after they meet. Reign thought that marrying a man she hardly knew would be her biggest test of faith in Jesus yet, but marriage is forever and they both have a life-long of lessons to learn. The first one: it will always be in His hands. /// Bible Translations include AMP, CSB, ESV, NIV, NKJV, and NLT💛
