    A crippled knight. 
    A widowed sorceress. 
    And a second chance at love—and revenge. 
    Born a noblewoman's bastard, Thadred has risen to become High Inquisitor, tasked with hunting escaped cythraul demons across the land. Despite the injuries that left him maimed for life, he has become indispensable to the empire. 
    Sair was a widowed sorceress who has become one of the Empress Amira's most trusted emissaries and confidantes. A skilled healer and spy, Sair works to ensure peace wherever the empress sends her. 
    A year ago, Thadred and Sair helped save the world from a fallen goddess, but it's not safe just yet. Unrest ripples through the empire, stray demons lurk in the shadows, and the denizens of a defeated witch still linger. 
    Now one of those denizens has taken Sair's young son. 
    Worse, they soon realize the boy's abduction may have more to do with the cythraul demons than anyone thought. Something evil is at work, and Thadred and Sair must stop it before it rains terror on the unsuspecting empire. 
    Bastard's Honor is a second-chance Fantasy Romance that takes place after the events of the Daindreth's Assassin series. It will contain heavy spoilers for the Daindreth's Assassin series, but can be read separately.

    A GRIEVING HEIRESS. A BROODING CARETAKER. A LOVE HAUNTED BY SHADOWS AND SECRETS. When tragedy strikes, Victoria Ravenwood inherits the crumbling estate of Ravenfell Manor, hoping to find solace within its ivy-choked walls. Instead, she discovers a house alive with sorrow, secrets, and whispers of the dead. Gabriel Allward has guarded Ravenfell for years, his mysterious presence as rooted as the stones themselves. Cold and distant, he carries a secret that binds him to the estate—a truth too dangerous to share. Yet Victoria is drawn to him, even as the shadows close in. As their forbidden bond deepens, strange omens awaken: a raven in the garden, whispers in the halls, and the restless spirit of a love long lost. The closer Victoria comes to uncovering Ravenfell’s curse, the more she risks being consumed by it. NARRATED BY THE AUTHOR. A gothic romance perfect for fans of Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Hester Fox, and darkly enchanting fairy-tale retellings.

    When human Kleena is snatched off the streets of Jorvla and thrust into an auction, she expects to find herself at the mercy of her buyer, not rescued by a Naga prince—even if he is a warrior haunted by the ghosts of his own devastating legacy. 
     
    To keep her safe, they're forced to pose as newlyweds—an impossible feat when they don't even like each other. However, as days stretch into weeks, their forced proximity begins to feel a little less like punishment . . . and a lot more like a blessing. 
     
    Especially when one night changes everything. 
     
    But convinced he's destined to destroy anyone he loves, Naga Prince Erhan pushes Kleena away—and straight toward the Naga noblewoman who is supposedly Erhan's real fiancée. 
     
    With their love on the line, they're both forced to make a choice. Will they let the past define them . . .  
     
    Or find a future together?

    Paloma is dead. But before she was murdered, before she was even Paloma, she was a traditional healer named Gaspar. Before she was murdered, she taught her cousin Feliciana the secrets of the ceremonies known as veladas, and about the Language and the Book that unlock their secrets. 
     
     
      
    Sent to report on Paloma's murder, Zoe meets Feliciana in the mountain village of San Felipe. There, the two women's lives twist around each other in a danse macabre. Feliciana tells Zoe the story of her struggle to become an accepted healer in her community, and Zoe begins to understand the hidden history of her own experience as a woman, finding her way in a hostile environment shaped by and for men. 
     
     
      
    Weaving together two parallel narratives that mirror and refract one another, this extraordinary novel envisions the healer as storyteller and the writer as healer, and offers a generous and nuanced understanding of a world that can be at turns violent and exultant, cruel and full of hope.

    Section K Replication Alluthan Clone or Krac as he was now called had one focus in his life; protecting the descendants of the Freedom Five who ruled Earth’s council. Rescued by members of the family from a secret facility, he pledged to do what he could to always keep them safe. Things become personal when insurgents target a special member of the Freedom Five, Gracie Jones-Jefe and her family. When Violet Jefe is kidnapped, he swears to do everything he can to bring the precocious little girl who is the image of her mother home safely and kill those who took her without mercy.

Never one to be denied what she really wants, Skeeter buys the first and steals the second. When sources lead Krac to the Lulu Belle, he finds more than he expects – a woman who fires his blood almost as much as she draws it. Krac’s hands and life are suddenly full to overflowing.
