To Keep an Emerald Rose
2024
She’s a dragon shifter on a mission. He’s a witch with a secret. Fate has drawn them together.
Octavia Ashbloom just wants one thing in to be accepted by her village. It shouldn’t be too much to ask, but unfortunately for her, they’re still holding a grudge from that one time she accidentally started a war.
It’s been fifty-five years, but dragon shifters have long memories. When the Elders of her village give her a chance to reclaim their favor by delivering the Emerald Rose across the Empire, she jumps at the opportunity.
Everything is going well until Flynn, a too-handsome-for-his-own-good witch, finds the cabin where Octavia is weathering out a storm. He sneaks in, and Octavia catches him rifling through her bag. She knows she can’t trust him, but there’s an undeniable draw between them.
When her instincts prove correct, and Flynn tries to steal the Emerald Rose again, Octavia insists they split up. She hasn’t come this close to winning back the Elders’ trust just to throw it all away now.
Fate isn’t done with them, though. When it pushes them together again, Octavia has to decide whether to trust the handsome, would-be thief or part ways forever.

To Ignite a Pyrite Spirit
2024
Where there is smoke. . . there is always fire.
For more than a century, dragons ruled the skies without excitement or fear. That instantly changes when a shadow appears from a world beyond with a deal too enticing to ignore. Aedan and his mages seek shelter in exchange for a bonding ritual of the dragon's golden king, Eldates, to their beautiful high priestess. But everything is not as it seems.
Captivated by Cenara, Valk refuses to lose the chance to claim her for himself. As he makes each move, he becomes further tangled in her enchantments, revealing a side of himself he'd not known before. Pyrite might not be gold, but those sun-kissed eyes stalk him all the same.
As more of her secrets come out, all of his morals are called into question. To love the mage would mean turning his back on his family. With everyone around Valk demanding action, he’s left with only one decision to make: confront what he thinks might be genuinely evil or surrender himself to their plans.
Is love worth Valk's soul if it ignites his spirit?
To ignite a Pyrite Spirit is part of the Bound by Flame multi author collection and also takes place in the Dryad Chronicles world with ties to characters in other books.

When two strangers are forced to weather a storm… even stone can burn
Lady Evangeline Gramont has spent her whole life wanting two to find true love and to serve her kingdom. In an arranged betrothal to a Duke she’s never met, the last thing she imagined would be running into an extremely large, if—she grudgingly admits—passably attractive male during a seaside tour with the queen, forcing her to choose between duty and destiny.
The very last place Gavin Conway Lockheed wanted to be was landlocked at another port, but the goddess had different plans as a series of events led his ship, The Quartz Thorn, to have an extended stay for repairs in Verdigris Falls after an unusual storm tour through the main mastings. He soon finds himself rescuing the most beautiful female he’s ever set eyes on. The only problem? She’s a lady engaged to a duke, and he would never let his own desires impede another’s happiness.

To Embrace an Onyx Heart
2024
"I was no unthinking beast, to be ruled by my instincts."
A desperate dragon shifter. A witch in hiding. And the secrets that burn between them.
Seranni Vasalt is a witch in hiding. If her powers are revealed, she'll be forcibly enlisted into the king’s army. After years of hiding, she finally gets the chance to flee to another country, where she plans to use her magic to make money—enough to keep her family whole. So when Seranni sneaks into the abandoned mage’s tower on the outskirts of her town, she’s looking for anything that can hone her powers. What she finds is a man in hiding. A wild man with coal-black eyes, claws on his hands, and secrets of his own.
A prisoner of war twisted by black magic, Kael has been trapped in an enemy land for almost two years. Desperate to go home, he’s been hiding in the tower as he struggles to reverse the spells placed on him, but with no magic of his own, he can’t decipher the mage’s books. Just when Kael is about to lose hope, he meets Seranni.
Soon, they come to a deal: Kael will give Seranni access to the tower, and she will help him decode the mage’s books. But when Seranni is forced to flee her town and stay with Kael, they find that the attraction between them is stronger than the secrets that keep them apart.
But the runaway mage isn’t done with Kael yet. He contacts Seranni in secret, promising her all of his knowledge in return for turning in Kael, his wayward experiment. Now, Seranni has to make a choice: does she betray the enemy soldier who has hidden so much from her? Or does she trust the gentle man with burning eyes and a scarred heart she could come to love?
