COMPLETED MANUSCRIPTS:
The Ocean Between Us
(now in revisions)
In a world where the Greek gods and goddesses toy with the lives of mortals, generations of the kings of Erion have suffered from the deities’ misdeeds. When a son of the sea-god Poseidon rapes the king’s sister and destroys the realm, King Kyros must sail for Zeus’s temple to demand justice. He barely survives a freakish, silent shipwreck and washes ashore on a seemingly deserted island.
Mareisa was born a mermaid and grew into a fiery beauty in Poseidon’s hedonistic underwater realm. One of the god’s jealous mistresses cursed Mareisa to live on two legs above the sea, burned by saltwater and damned to sing sailors to their doom. Now Mareisa’s ruined life and island is invaded by a fierce and sexy mortal who seeks revenge on Poseidon—and who doesn’t yet realize she’s a Siren who destroyed his ship.
The Source of Magic
Where’s 9-1-1 when you need it? It’s not in Teganne, the magical world into which Jilian Stewart has been kidnapped. Prince Alvarr, her arrogant and unnervingly sexy abductor, offers a cure for her dying mother, but he won’t send Jilian home with it until she helps him destroy the wizard threatening Teganne–with mystical powers she never knew she had.
MANUSCRIPTS IN PROGRESS:
Kismet’s Huntress
Brazen Princess Zahlia returns to her desert homeland and finds its Machiavellian ruler, her sister’s husband, tightening a sinister noose around their people. For Zahlia to overthrow him and free her sister, she must relinquish her cherished liberty and bind herself to a dangerous hunter, Khalid—the hot-blooded one-night-stand she’d sworn to her gods never to touch again.
Ambitious Khalid, long persecuted by the tyrannical ruler, stands to gain everything from the union—but wary Zahlia, who seduced him with a forest god’s magic spell, is the reward he really wants. Snared in a maze of deadly schemes and intrigue, can they forge a true bond from their passion and claim the thrones?
The Faery Fiancée
A dangerous family secret forces the no-nonsense aristocrat Aleron on an insane quest: within ten days, he must woo, bed, and wed a woman with faery blood. And in that particular order.
A half-blooded faery, Zara, must procure an amulet to protect her newfound powers, or the god Hermes’ singing gnomes will filch her magic. The goddesses of Olympus are feisty Zara’s only hope, but to reach them, she needs skeptical Aleron’s help.
The last thing Zara wants is to behave like her wanton, pariah mother, but Aleron, a hot-blooded man now on a quest of his own, is Temptation itself…
