Fortune Favors the Brave is a raw, multi-perspective YA novel set in the heart of a sudden, brutal zombie apocalypse-unfolding while a group of teenagers are locked inside their school, cut off from the outside world.
As the dead rise and the rules of reality collapse, the students must confront not only the horror around them but the darkness within. Survival comes at a cost, and not everyone will make it out unchanged-or alive.

Until I'm Dead
When the world goes to shit, what do you think of your chances of survival? The students of Weststone High are about to figure out just that as they get thrust into a world where what was once their peers are now hellbent on tasting their flesh. Follow along while this ragtag team of mis-matched students learn just where they stand in the new food chain with just one single goal: survive. - The world is changed. I think I've changed along with it but I'm not sure. Who I was before this is just a hazy fog in my mind now. I wish I had kept a journal. Before. Something to remind me what life was like before every day became a fight. Maybe then I'd remember why I'm trying so hard to survive. I don't think I can hold on much longer like this, though. I can feel my will fading away. Bending. Folding. I don't want to go out alone in this cold desolation. Will you stay with me? At least, until I'm dead? -

The Fire We Carry
A novel of survival, secrets, and the ties that hold us together when the world falls apart. Willa and Evren have spent years dancing around their feelings-two teens navigating high school crushes, inside jokes, and late-night texts in a sleepy town that rarely changed. Until the night everything burned. What was supposed to be a normal school dance becomes a nightmare when a bomb strikes near the building, and a mysterious aircraft hovers overhead. In the chaos, Willa and her friends escape-barely-but the life they knew is reduced to ash. With their town crumbling behind them and no contact with the outside world, the group sets out on foot toward a rumored safehouse in the nearby city of Laneridge. As they journey through ruined streets and fractured memories, they uncover scraps of information that don't add up. What really caused the bombing? Who is behind the silence? And why does it feel like someone wanted them to run? Together, the seven teens must navigate a landscape of fear, grief, and uncertainty-haunted by what they've lost and held together by the quiet hope of what might still be saved. But surviving the journey may not be the hardest part. Some fires start with destruction. Others with truth.Complete

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
