Yevliesza, formerly of earth and now of the Mythos, knows that one of the mythical realms is based in darkness. Volkia. This warlike kingdom has shattered the rules of magic, bringing all the realms into peril. When Yevliesza is sent to Volkia on a diplomatic mission, she arrives at a nest of vipers. The cunning ruler of Volkia, Prince Albrecht, appears to welcome her, but suspects that she is linked to a rare and world-altering power. One that he intends to harness for conquest. To preserve the Mythos, Yevliesza must never reveal that power. But she has left behind a trail of evidence, and worse, she possesses a damning arcane tracery--etched upon her very skin. Now she is in the hands of a ruler who is determined to bend her to his will, whether through a twisted courtship or outright coercion. Unless she can outwit him. The prince has formidable allies, but one is supreme: the twisted being who hovers over the realm, guiding the Volkish and seeking revenge on Yevliesza’s homeland.

Although she is the daughter of witches, she was raised in the modern age with little knowledge of their arisen world and none of their magic. For the the last leg of her journey, she flies on the back of a dragon. When a storm splits open the sky, Yevliesza is caught in its blinding light. She arrives at the medieval city-palace severely damaged, indelibly marked as an outsider. In this kingdom of deep powers, she is devoid of magic. Determined to find her power and claim her place, she must counter dangerous court intrigues and a sorceress who intends to see this foreigner cast from the great Tower.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book had originally been titled THE HUMAN HORROR STORY! It was a very over descriptive novel that in many other opinions was just too graphic and gory! So although that novel had been decided by me to be put on a shelf for future revising, one of its chapters caught my attention. So I removed that particular chapter and began building a new story surrounding that specific idea and long and behold within four months I created my second novel RED EYES! I worked diligently on making sure that the subject matter although a horror story wouldn't upon being published offend anyone. So happy and relieved that the finished novel after several personal revisions was finally what I thought completed. How very wrong was I! The first project somehow decided to find itself added as an extension to the new novel! So once again I had to go in and perform surgery. Now both stories had to be merged to be one novel! So now I began thinking about a new title! Finally I came up with merging both titles into one! RED EYES AND THE HUMAN HORROR STORY! A SPINE -TINGLING ADVENTURE INTO UNKNOWN REALMS...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming a goddess wasn’t what I planned for today. Death made me an offer I couldn't refuse. But I'm in love with the archangel who is his oldest and best friend. “You have been friends for a millennium,” I said. Perhaps as much as a god and his angel could be friends, I thought. “It would be cosmically stupid for you to allow a woman to ruin such love.” I held their hands tight as they flinched and tried again to pull away. But they were looking at me now, not each other, which is what I wanted. Focus on me, boys, I thought to myself, selecting my next words carefully. The stone floor was hard and cool against my knees as I knelt between them. I brought both of their hands to my lips. “I choose you,” I said again, loud enough to fill the dark room. I looked from one to another and asked, “Will you both choose me?” Confusion and ancient possessiveness settled across their faces at war with hope and a new consideration. The juxtaposition might have been comical had my heart not hung in the balance. Ravens mate for life. And death. ---- Raven Queen, Arise is a poly romance featuring a bisexual heroine doing the best she can to protect the people she loves, right the wrongs done her, and assemble the beginnings of her own reverse harem.
