Dark Horse

2021

My husband killed me. Instead of spending my immortal Afterlife pissed off and angry, I moved on. I became someone. Sure, that someone was a demon with the highest track record of reform, AKA punishment, in Hell. But who’s bragging? I’m right on my way to retirement behind the pearly gates. Everything was going fine . . . until the Risk Witches saw a terrible vision. Three men. Each scarred in their own way, born with powers that haven’t been seen in eons. Upper Management sent the best to correct their path. Angels. Poltergeists. Nothing worked. These men were too stubborn. Too bad. Too untamed... So they sent me. Roman. Ezra. Dorian. Combined, they have enough power to end the world—and they will. Unless I find a way to stop them first. Breaking people is my job. But this time...my job might break me. Author's Note: This is an adult paranormal romance series with multiple love interests and some dark elements. If you don't like strong but flawed women and alphahole heroes that need to learn a thing or two about boundaries—this book is not for you. If you love works by Tate James, Ivy Asher, Raven Kennedy, Joely Sue Burkhart, and CM Stunich, then dive right in to the Afterlife. It'll be one hell of a ride.

White Raven

2021

An alpha wolf, a seductive vampire, and a dominant fae all walk into a bar. What do they have in common? Being mated to me, apparently. My dreams of retirement crashed and burned when the rogue shifter bit me. Not only have I changed into something neither world has ever seen before, but my mission just became even more impossible. To find the answers about what I am, I enlist the help of an infamous ex-poltergeist, a shifter freak, and my least favorite pigeon. What a team we make. Oh, and did I forget to mention that my mate’s bloodthirsty daughter is awake and hunting my ass now? Because that’s a thing too. Why? I have no idea, but we have every intention of finding out. An angel is playing games with me, but little do they know—I’ve got three alphas by my side, and this dark horse plays for keeps. WHITE RAVEN is book two in A Demon's Guide to the Afterlife series.

Black Swan

2021

Everyone wants to be different, until they are. Take it from a true Heinz 57, being special isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Especially when it sets off a series of events that will end the world. You know, the catastrophe I was sent to prevent in the first place. Fate has a funny way of doing whatever it wants. In trying to change the future, I’m now the catalyst for destruction. I should have known it was a bad omen when I shifted into a white raven instead of a wolf. Our enemies may be more powerful than we ever imagined, but I’ve got a talking crow and Bloody Mary on my side. I have friends now—and family. Not to mention, one hell of a love life I have no intention of giving up. I would die for any of them, but that’s not the plan. It’s time to see if I can stop this black swan. Tick. Tock.
