I Knew You
When the death of Sienna Ross' mysterious uncle leads her to a small town in Washington she quickly learns everything is not as it seems. And when Sienna locks eyes with Alpha Kaden Marsak, notoriously labeled bad news, she knows nothing will ever be the same. . . . Before James or Celie could bicker anymore the bell on the door rung again. This time I was fully aware. I knew the man that walked through the door, his black hair pushed back, white shirt spread over the length of his chest bulk with muscle. I'd met him once in another life, taller than Celie, and even James, stubble littering his jawline and upper lip. I knew him instantly, although I'd never met him- I knew him. He was perfect in every definition of the word and instantly I felt the need to rise from my chair and jump carelessly into his arms like a child. His eyes found mine instantly- familiar eyes dark like midnight surrounded by skin like sand- rough and fighting to stay youthful. He took a staggering step, never dropping his eyes from mine and for a moment he was still like a lion in hunt, not even his chest moved to take a breath. And then like a lion he inhaled sharply and abruptly crossed the floor in a few short strides. Our eyes never moved from each other. "Kaden-" James began as he fearfully followed Kadens glace to me, "She's not a rogue, shes-" He cut him off with a word spoken softly and from deep within his throat, "Mate."

The Medium
Seventeen year-old spirit medium Emily Chambers has a problem. Actually, she has several. As if seeing dead people isn't a big enough social disadvantage, she also has to contend with an escaped demon and a handsome ghost with a secret past. And then there's the question of her parentage. Being born an entire year after her father's death (yes, a year) and without the pale skin of other respectable English ladies, Emily is as much a mystery as the dead boy assigned to her. Jacob Beaufort's spirit has been unable to crossover since his death several months ago. It might have something to do with the fact he was murdered. Or it might not. All he knows is, he has been assigned by the Otherworld's administrators to a girl named Emily. A girl who can see and touch him. A girl who released a shape-shifting demon into the mortal realm. Together they must send the demon back before it wreaks havoc on London. It should be a simple assignment, but they soon learn there's nothing simple when a live girl and a dead boy fall in love. THE MEDIUM is the first book in the Emily Chambers Spirit Medium trilogy. Yes, that's *trilogy* - meaning not everything will be wrapped up nicely at the end of The Medium. There are 2 more books after it, both of which are published. Check out my website for details.Completa
The Visionary Patriot: The Angel Among Shadows
Charlotte Briarwood is not human. Created by forces older than memory-the Ancient Sun God and the enigmatic Fool-she began life untouched by compassion, unaware of the fragile beauty of humanity. That changed at a London orphanage, where a brave, protective boy guided her through vulnerability, and a clever, curious child taught her the rhythms and quirks of human life. Through them, she first glimpsed empathy, curiosity, and the strange pull of human connection. Now, a renowned psychiatrist, Charlotte heals minds with uncanny skill, balancing the humanity she has learned against the immortal, angelic being she truly is. But when a noble patient dies under suspicious circumstances-a death disguised as suicide-Charlotte is drawn into a web of secrets, family intrigue, and shadowed power. In a city of fog and hidden truths, she must navigate murder, manipulation, and morality, guided by the anchors of her past. Every choice challenges her identity, her morality, and her understanding of what it truly means to be human. In the end, the greatest mystery she must solve is the one within herself.
In a world where true terror lurks in plain sight, three intertwined fates collide in a frantic hunt for a demon that preys upon innocent girls. 🔪 A man trapped inside his niece's body, forced to protect her from sinister forces closing in. 🔮 A witch gifted with the power to find the lost, facing an evil far darker than she ever imagined. 🚨 A police force hunting a serial killer, only to discover that their worst nightmare is not of this world.
