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!

In Rowland, a kingdom void of love, where even a kiss is unheard of, Illyria is the prim and proper niece of the King, and his unofficial body guard.

On the eve of a marriage arranged to help her climb, a mysterious foreign ruler intrudes the castle walls, a masked leader known only as "The Sovereign."

Nobody knows what is really happening in the Howlin' Woods, but almost every new moon terrible screams, shrieks, and ghastly noises are heard by the whole town of Burns, Florida. Anyone who has dared venture in there at night never returns. It has been known as a place of evil clear back to when the Seminole Indians inhabited the area. Where there is great evil, there is great good. The Whistlin' Salamander grants the wishes of desperate people. The legend says that if you could catch him and kiss him on the head you would be stone lucky for the rest of your life, but no one has ever accomplished it. Just hearing the whistle though, would bring a measure of luck. Two friends, Wishes and Freck, both motherless are desperate enough to brave the woods. What they found there was more amazing than monsters or salamanders. Their discovery was probably the greatest secret ever known to man.
