As the two do what they can to protect their kingdoms, it becomes increasingly clear that they are locked in the same struggle, two sides to the same coin, and coming together may be the only possible way to solve both of their problems.Complete
Deck of Fate
Elora walks into the Assembly knowing full well that her chances of becoming anything other than a powerless Club, her family's symbol, are close to zero, and she is grateful for it. She has no desire to become a Diamond, with their supernatural intelligence, or a Heart with elemental magic, or Gods forbid, one of those pretentious special-powered Spades. She has always been resigned to serving the symbols she loathes, hoping to escape poverty and provide a better life for her mother. But when the Assembly brands her as a Spade, Elora's world is upended. Thrust into a deadly training base where survival is a test of will, she must navigate a world of privilege and power while grappling with her own prejudices.

But her newfound life of luxury comes at a cost, as she uncovers dangerous secrets that threaten to shatter everything she thought she wanted. As Elora and Rhiya's paths diverge, they must navigate the truth about their society, their symbols, and themselves. When the Clubs disappear and Arcana's fragile balance of power starts to crack, Elora and Rhiya must choose between embracing their new roles or dismantling the system that defines them.

The Price of Innocence
"Some ghosts don't haunt to scare you. They haunt to remind you what you lost." Thandi's innocence echoed in every memory she shared with her sister. She's accepted the truth - her sister is gone, and nothing can change that. But everything shatters the moment she sees her again. Alive. Smiling. Real. Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places. Survival is only the beginning; when nothing is as it seems, even the purest hearts cast the darkest shadows.Complete
Nirrin (Forestfolk, Book 3)
Nirrin spends her days in Foresthome caring for orphans, getting into trouble, and listening to other people's adventures with secret envy. Which is why following an intriguing stranger into an unknown part of the forest seemed like a good idea at the time. Nirrin doesn't expect to find her missing parents among a band of odd-looking misfits, but family is family, right? Her hopes to reclaim the kin she'd lost are challenged, however, when she uncovers their violent plot against "Normals" like her. They'll make an exception for her (Nirrin has always been great at exempting herself from rules), but doing nothing would mean endangering her friends in Foresthome. She must stop these outcasts from--who is she kidding? She's a smart-mouthed girl with no special talents. What is she going to do, talk them to death? Maybe babysitting a bunch of other orphans in Foresthome wasn't such a bad deal after all.Complete
