Siena can heal wounds with a touch of her hands. A captive since birth, she is used as a tool of war by a Plainsmen tribe. A chance escape into the forest proves successful... and deadly. Rescued by the Forestfolk--a group of people she always thought were nothing more than bedtime stories--Siena remains on edge. Trust does not come easily when persecution is all she's ever known. Keeping her abilities a secret seems like the right thing to do, until a tragic accident renders two Forestfolk spiraling toward death. If she chooses to reveal her abilities, she risks being subjugated again. Treated as no longer human. Maybe even sent back to the Plainsmen. But keeping her talent to herself means ignoring the injured around her, even allowing them to die. The choice seems obvious to Siena, but living with the repercussions of that choice is another matter altogether. A journey of self-discovery, a bit of adventure, and a splash of romance. On the Wattys 2017 Shortlist!

Stranded, Alone, on an Unknown world far from the one she called home. After centuries have passed from her departure from an appending destruction of Earth on a fleet that would act as a vassal for humanity, the trip to a star system on the outer reaches of the Milky Way would have its obstacles. But never once did they think nor prepare for what lies ahead. After the fleet is divided from her Arc ship sustaining the Eurasian Ethnicity, "Arcadia" from the rest of ethnic arcs in the fleet. Karliah awakes, her Cyropod alone, in the middle of a cold red forest, lying in an open field covered in a thin white layer of snow with the alien blue grass and plants beginning to peak threw the planets soil as it reaches its spring season. Welcome to Sovereign, the next home for Humanity. She must now Confide in an incredibly developed, advanced, mostly self aware, and charming AI placed in the body of a synthetic human known as "Nexus." The original guide to life in this new system for the colonists, who some how wound up with her here on their original destination. The two bond as he assists her in survival, and hopefully finding the rest of her crew and ship to restore the mission and continue life as we know it.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.
