When Phoebe is woken up by James, the boy she's been crushing on since she can remember, she's surprised to find him in a panic. His sister Kara is missing and he needs Phoebe's help to find her. Following hunches and the wordy clues of an annoying preteen, Phoebe and James discover that Kara has been taken, but she left a message for her brother: Tell Phoebe the truth.
James begrudgingly unveils the family secret he's been keeping all his life: he and Kara can "shift" into dragons. Real, winged, magical beasts that have been hunted for hundreds of years! No longer safe, James has no choice but to flee the hunters that took his sister, and Phoebe demands to be brought along. Her gut instinct, which has always been supernaturally accurate, begs her to go, putting her on the path of a wild adventure.
Enduring battles, near-death experiences, and their growing attraction for each other, they struggle to survive and stay one step ahead of those that seek to destroy James and all his kind.

Rising Powers
(74,890 words) The wind rushed past me as my wings beat against the night sky. I noticed a copse of trees up ahead. I slowed to a stop, talons clutching a low-hanging branch. I looked beyond the trees and a pair of glowing golden eyes met my own. Wolf eyes. My eyes widened in fear as I took off. I dodged the trees in my path, but one branch snapped on my wing. My vision blurred, pain lacing through my wing. I continued to flap my wings, clinging desperately to the notion I would make it out alive. More than one wolf was chasing me, their paws a staccato on the ground. They would catch up. They would devour me. I tried to stay in the air, but the pain was unbearable. I fell to the ground, fluttering down like a dead leaf. I snapped my eyes open. Breathing heavily, I sat up. My room shifted in and out of focus as my eyes adjusted. When I was little, my father always told me that dreams were just my imagination, that people were never chased by wolves, and people certainly could never be birds.

One night the hidden darkness surrounding their town and their lives comes to the surface. Will Vera and her friends figure out the secrets hidden through their town's history before it's too late?Complete
