When life gives you a second chance in a medieval fantasy world, make sure you revolutionize it. Getting hit by a truck wasn't on my post-graduation bucket list. Neither was waking up as Quinn Fairchild, the illegitimate daughter of a cruel lord in a world of magic and monsters. But at least I got some cool magical powers out of the deal, right? Well, sort of. Sure, I can create modern conveniences and heal people, but now I'm being married off to the infamous Earl of Norsewood-a man whose reputation makes hardened warriors tremble. Turns out this supposedly ruthless earl is actually a gorgeous, caring leader desperately trying to save his dying land. Armed with my 21st-century knowledge, a know-it-all magical creation skill, and a determination to build something amazing, I'm turning this medieval fantasy world upside down. One modern convenience at a time. Now if only I could figure out why my hunky husband keeps looking at me like I'm his personal miracle... The Modern Countess Series (formerly Apparently, I'm the Infamous Earl's Legendary Bride) is a fantasy romance series features a vivacious transmigrated heroine determined to revolutionize a medieval-like, war-torn world with her modern knowledge and magical abilities, alongside a hunky warrior-earl husband hell-bent on protecting his land and people while claiming his wife's heart.

A LINE UNBROKEN. A TRUTH UNSPOKEN. Born into wealth and privilege as the niece of an emperor, Starborn Lady Mhera never dreamt that tragedy would shatter her world. But darkness roils beneath the peaceful facade of the Holy City: a rebellion is brewing among the Arcborn-the dangerous, magic-blooded undercaste of Penrua-and they will stop at nothing to destroy the peace of the realm. That much is proven to Mhera when she is just a girl and her greatest treasure is taken from her. Years later, still wounded by the evil the Arcborn wrought against her, she is on the brink of professing her final vows as a nun...but before she can accept the life of safety and solitude she doesn't truly desire, she is offered a chilling compromise with fate that threatens everything she has ever known.

It's been a year - a year since the Order attacked us in the tunnels under the ruins of Seward House, a year since I'd been on the edge of dying, a year since I somehow found it in myself pull myself from what would have been my watery grave and get to Scotland and the one family I knew would help me and keep my secrets.

This time, however, it was in the clutches of the one man who took everything and almost everyone away from me. Somehow, we would get it back and find whatever the three keys opened. And expose every secret Vince Peters kept, tearing down his world around him.
