Twelve years ago, Lily vanished into a haunting painting, a cursed masterpiece hidden in her family's Vermont mansion. Inside, she has grown into a dangerously alluring woman, her beauty magnified by years of solitude and longing.
When Ethan-a stoic young man bound by duty and scarred by loss-moves into the same house, strange whispers, vivid, sensual and intoxicating dreams draw him to the painting. There, he discovers Lily: mesmerizing, untouchable, and desperate for human contact.
Ethan's icy exterior begins to crack under her spell, but as their bond deepens, he's faced with a choice-save Lily and risk his soul, or resist her pull and leave her trapped forever. In this house, love and desire might be as deadly as the curse itself.

Beyond the Pain - Book #1 Evergreen Series
"You are safe." She paused for a moment, her gaze fixed to the wall in front of her. "But you're not free." AFTER LILY JONES LOSES EVERYTHING she holds dear, she does everything in her power to forget her pain. She breaks all ties and moves across the country. But when she is forcefully taken to Evergreen, a breathtaking but mysterious mansion where she is ordered to work as a maid for its equally enigmatic inhabitants, she is robbed of the only thing she had left: her freedom. There, she encounters two groups of people. Those who, like herself, have been ripped of their independence and forced into servitude, and their young, rich and austere captors, the Evergreen people. As she gets familiar with life in her peculiar prison, memories that she kept buried try to resurface and she starts to suspect that the secrets kept within the walls of Evergreen might be more unnatural and dangerous than she could ever imagine. Will she be able to save herself and her new family from the storm that threatens to break on Evergreen or will her repressed guilt and fears cause her to lose the people she cares about once again?Concluida

The Girl Left Behind
Lily Morgan has never truly belonged. After surviving the fire that killed her parents as a baby, she was taken in by relatives who never wanted her-an obligation, not a child. For seventeen years, she's lived in a house that feels more like a prison, haunted by a past she can't remember and a future she isn't sure she wants. But when her senior class plans a week-long trip to Hollow Pines, something inside her whispers that this isn't just a getaway. It's a warning. Because Hollow Pines isn't just any camp. People have gone missing there before. And when Lily vanishes on the third night, her friends are left scrambling for answers-only to uncover secrets that should have stayed buried. Somebody wanted Lily dead the night her parents burned. And this time, they won't fail. A haunting mystery filled with secrets, betrayals, and a past that refuses to stay buried. Perfect for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder and One of Us is Lying.
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.Concluida

When Lee wakes up in a hospital room, two police officers come to ask her questions about who she is and what had happened to her.

Beyond the Frame
When Detective Evie Graves is called to a prestigious art museum to investigate the violent deaths of two restoration experts, she expects another tragic but solvable case.

A single painting-hidden away and left covered by a cloth-holds the key. As Evie dares to uncover its secrets, strange whispers begin to echo through the halls, and the line between reality and nightmare begins to fade. With every passing moment, the painting's influence grows, bending her mind, distorting her senses, and drawing her deeper into its madness. Is the curse real, or is it all in her head? Either way, Evie is about to find out-if she can hold on to her sanity long enough to uncover the truth.Concluida
