FROM CALIFORNIA TO ARIZONA
Nina has no choice but to follow her family as they move from one state to another. Her mother is dead and she struggles to cope with her swiftly changing life.
A CAR CRASH
One accident on a quiet road in the desert will whip Nina's entire life around. Scarred and bleeding, she can choose whether to stay with the wreckage and her losses, or try to look for a brighter future, even if it lies in the unknown.
THE NAVAJO
The desert shows her new things and people she grows attached to. The warm sun, the family of the Bear Clan, and even one special Native American boy. As she continues to journey on this path, the adventure will give her a new side of life and direct Nina to her roots.
THE BATTLE
As the new friends become new family, their happiness and pain become her own, and Nina will face their enemies by their side. But while she will fight physically, she goes to war with herself. Should she stay with the desert, or should she linger in her past?

Bound By Survival
The world is no longer hers. After an apocalypse turned Earth into a living nightmare-where animals hunt for sport and plants consume the unsuspecting-Natalie has lost everything. Betrayed by those she trusted and left to die, survival is her only goal. Until an old man offers her a way out. A new world. A breeding program. A chance at safety. But safety comes at a price. Transported to an alien planet on the brink of extinction, Natalie is paired with a powerful warrior of a species that doesn't understand human customs-especially not when it comes to breeding. Their kind is rough, dominant, and built for survival, but her new mate is fascinated by her in ways neither of them expect. Yet trust doesn't come easy. Not when danger lurks beyond the walls of their new home, when rival males and jealous females threaten to tear them apart. And when the biggest threat of all-the truth behind the virus that wiped out their women-is still waiting to be uncovered. She was brought here to save a dying race. But will she survive long enough to do it?
Eyeseffendee
"The feeling of isolation is enough to keep me company." •The First Book of the Eyeseffendee Series• In the Sonoran desert, being alone is a death sentence. Good thing Astor, a young coyote, is part of the Piedra tribe, where he always has shelter, food and water. Too bad he's never fit in. He was found as a sick, dehydrated pup on the edge of the Piedra territory. His bright green eyes and golden pelt set him apart as an outsider; an unwanted runt from another tribe. Things are bad enough without the other coyotes teasing him. The neighboring Fuego tribe has been crossing borders, and they are demanding more territory. When hostilities between the tribes are high, Astor witnesses something terrible: the Piedra tribe's leader is murdered by a shape shifter. The Shifter disguises himself as the chief and exiles Astor from the tribe. Astor is the tribe's only chance. But can he save the tribe that treated him as an outsider? <---•••---> The inspiration for this book came when I was driving through Colorado desert on interstate 70, looking out the window. I couldn't help but wonder, "what's out there?" Eyeseffendee answers that question one way, through the eyes of a young, angsty coyote, but I don't know what's out there. There could be wendigos, shape shifters, spirits and other creatures, or there could just be sand and sage brush. Either way, keep exploring and stay adventurous🏜Complete
