Tame The Spark
2019
It all begins with Hera & Zeus...
Before Noelle ever falls into the Other, before Cassandra becomes the witch in the woods, a young Manhattan socialite meets a stubborn silver-haired stranger and discovers that the Fates won't be denied—Elisabeth
“The old ways are dying.”
That’s how the man who’s been following me around the city finally breaks his silence. The old ways are dying, and it’s up to me to save them.
Well, to be fair, it’s up to the two of us. Because, thousands of years ago, we were both gods—and we were married. He introduces himself as Zeus, king of the gods, and tells me that I’m not really Elisabeth Morgan. I’m Hera, and throughout countless lifetimes over the course of millennia, I’ve been his queen.
Of course, I don’t believe him. I’m convinced he’s broken loose from an asylum. The first time he approaches, my betrothed warns the silver-haired man to keep away from me. With a smirk, he disappears, as if he knows we’ll meet again.
And we do because, after seeing him once, I can’t stop myself from searching him out again. It’s an addiction, a compulsion, a need that turns into a rage so fiery, I nearly burn up the world around me when I discover him with another woman.
Because Hera is the jealous sort.
Because I’m Hera.
And he is Zeus, my wild, uncontrollable, philandering consort. He says the old ways are dying, and we have to return to the Other side. Will I go?
I don’t know. Can I tame him? Make him mine and mine alone like he never was? He says we’re meant to be, but I’m not sure.
Can I leave him?
No. I can’t.
So I stay. And I discover that there’s a whole other world out there, I’m a whole other person, and, with his help, it’s up to Zeus and Hera to save both the worlds.

Stalk the Moon
2018
She doesn't know she's Artemis, mythical huntress and goddess of the moon—but he does. And that's all he needs to make sure he gets his happy ending this time. Except he's expecting the Artemis he remembers. Who he gets instead is—Noelle
With a potty mouth and a Jersey attitude, I've never been the type of girl who cries when things don't go my way. I'm no damsel in distress. Whatever life throws at me, I can handle it. No matter how rough or tough or... weird?
Because falling through a full-length mirror and ending up in a forest wearing nothing but a nightgown is definitely weird. Stabbing a giant scorpion in the eye with a stick? Yup. Weird. Discovering I'm a whiz with a bow and that I can apparently communicate with animals like some grouchy Disney princess—okay, not gonna lie. That's kind of cool.
Being told that I'm supposedly the reincarnation of the Greek goddess Artemis? Super friggin' weird. How am I supposed to believe that? Or that some gorgeous hunk of a guy insists we're meant to be together?
I mean, I might not know a lot about mythology, but wasn't Artemis some kind of virgin?
Hunter
She's back.
After all this time, after all this waiting, she's back in my reach and nothing is going to keep me from changing the way this story ends.
Not the tragedy of our shared history, or the countless times I've already died. Not the fact that her brother has proven repeatedly that he will stop at nothing to keep us separated.
Not even the undeniable truth that Artemis doesn't remember me—or even herself.
She's back. And, this time, she's mine.

Hunt the Stars
2018
After discovering that she—surprise—has a brother, and that Hunter has been holding out on her when it comes to how exactly she can get back home, Noelle chooses to ride off on a majestic buck rather than spend one more minute with the two guys.
But, as she finds out, running away doesn’t mean that her story is over. In fact, it’s only just begun—Noelle
You’ve got to be friggin’ kidding me!
It’s bad enough that I fell through an antique mirror and ended up in the enchanted forest of the Other. I thought I’d seen it all after being chased by giant scorpions, getting shot at by a mysterious archer, and being hit on by a horny satyr. Yeah, right.
Thank the stars that I had Hunter, the gorgeous huntsman who’s been at my side since I landed here. Without him, I would’ve been scorpion chow within minutes. Kind and strong and a pleasure to look at when he isn’t wearing his hooded cloak, trying like hell to get back home to my condo and my cat wasn’t so bad as long as I had Hunter.
Then I met Alex, the mysterious archer I mentioned, and he dropped the bomb on me: he’s my brother.
Even worse?
Hunter’s been lying to me all along. He’s not helping me go home. He can’t. No one can.
Apparently we’re stuck in some stupid story. The magic of the Other? It brings people to this weirdo world to relive ancient Greek myths over and over again and I can’t leave until the story is over.
One problem.
No one will tell me how the myth of Artemis and Orion ends.
Hunter
Orion keeps whispering in my ear, telling me how our story is supposed to go: find Artemis, fall in love with the maiden goddess, and die. It’s what happens every time—there’s no way around it.
But Noelle isn’t like any Artemis he’s ever known. She’s feisty and loyal and looks at me as if staying chaste is the last thing on her mind.
At least, she did. Before her damn brother came along and told her what I’d carefully been hiding: portals only open to the Mirrorside after the story is told.
Until I die, and she—one way or the other, depending on the tale—kills me.
There’s no way to change the ending. It’s as old as time, and the magic of the Other ensures that our story will end as it has countless times before.
Then why do I feel like Noelle is meant to be mine? Not Orion’s, and not for a little while, but forever?
I don’t know, and maybe it’s pointless, but I’m going to do everything I can to show Noelle I love her—even if I have to sacrifice myself so that she can finally go home.

The Witch in the Woods
2018
Before she was the witch in the woods, before she was Cassandra, she was—Poppy
It was supposed to be just another job. The stranger hired me to be his maid and, though something about him made me twitch, I couldn’t pass up the money. So I traded Harlem for Manhattan, knowing that this decision might change my life.
I couldn’t have been more right.
I should have listened when he warned me away from that mirror, but I didn’t, and I somehow landed my fool self into a whole new world. I’m not alone, though.
He’s there. He says his name is Apollo, like the theater. And he has the absolute nerve to expect me to believe that I’m meant to be here, in this place, with him. A city girl like me, living out in the woods with some golden-haired white boy?
He must’ve lost his damn mind.
But Apollo has a dark side, too. A temper. When I brush him off, desperate to get back to New York, he curses me. That’s right. Curses me—with her name and her fate. He says I’m Cassandra. And so I am.
Because of his curse, I see the future. I know what’s going to happen. I don’t believe it.
And that, perhaps, is the worst part of the curse.
\*The Witch in the Woods is a novella set in the Mirrorside world. It features the story of Cassandra, the witch in the woods who helps Noelle in the first Mirrorside novel, Stalk the Moon.

Hide from the Heart
2019
The story of Eros & Psyche like you've never seen it before!
Jolie
I've been in the Other long enough to know that my soul mate is out there. But after making a home in Delphi these last few years, I've given up on ever finding him. It doesn't happen for everyone. Just because there's this... this certainty that I have that he's waiting for me, it doesn't mean it's going to happen. And if it does? I've also been in the Other long enough to know that most of these stories don't come with a happy ever after.
So when the patron of our village shows up and tells me that I've been chosen? I go along with it. Why not? Every day is the same here, and it's about time I got to get out of Delphi. Even if Alex—Apollo—won't tell me what I've been chosen for. He's one of the Twelve. He doesn't have to answer any of my questions.
Neither does the man he introduces me to.
Sebastian.
The instant we meet, I forget all of my doubts. Here's the soul mate I've been waiting for. I know him, even if I don't actually know him, and I'm willing to follow him anywhere he wants to go. Love at first sight has nothing on me... mainly because Sebastian won't let me see him.
It's his one condition. He knows as well as I do that we're meant to be, but there's something else that Sebastian knows.
He knows the story we're living. The myth we can't escape. And he tells me not to worry about it. To trust him. To love him.
But how can I love someone who hides his face—and his heart—from me?
Sebastian
This Psyche is even more beautiful than I remember.
We were never supposed to separate. After my bride was made immortal, we were to live together forever. But the stories faded, the old ways forgotten, until we started to be reborn in the Other. I've lost track of how long I've waited to find her again. How many lives I've lived, how many chances I've lost. And then, out of nowhere, I find her in Delphi.
Jolie.
One look in her pale blue eyes and I know that this woman is meant to be mine. Not for just the run of our story. Not even for just a simple lifetime. Forever. I want the forever I was promised.
As the God of Love, it's easy to make that connection. We're two halves of the same whole—heart and soul—and I know I'll be complete once I have her with me again. I'll do anything to keep her, even lie about who I am and what I want from her.
It should be easy. My mother has yet to return to the Other, and without Aphrodite to interfere, it should be easy to convince Jolie to stay with me. I already know she's mine. I refuse to lose her again.
Still, after all this time, I should've realized that nothing in the Other is easy.

Chase the Beauty
2022
The goddess of love is on the run...
In the Other, the Greek gods and goddesses are trapped by magic to relive out their myths in newer, more modern incarnations. For centuries, people find their way to this fantastical world, only to follow a script from an ancient time... until the reborn Artemis changed everything.
Now Vanessa has found the same mirror that brought Noelle to the Other...
Vanessa
I always told myself that I would get out when I finally had enough. After four years of an emotionally abusive relationship, I was beginning to think that I'd let him control me forever. Besides, he only ever got violent once before. And I believed him when he swore he didn’t mean it.
Then came the night when he… he snapped. In a haze of fury, he attacked me with a knife and I finally found the strength to fight back. Leaving him for dead, I grabbed my keys and ran.
I've been running ever since.
He found me, just like I knew he would—because I didn’t kill him, though I know he’ll kill me the second he gets the chance. He found me, and there was nowhere left to run—so, instead, I jumped. Through an antique mirror and into a world I never even dreamed existed.
I ran right into the biggest, baddest man I'd ever seen.
And, for the first time in years, I’m safe.
Hephaestus
They told me she would come. I told them I didn't care.
I lied. Oh, did I lie.
The story always ends the same. It doesn't matter that she is lost and lonely, quiet and scared—scarred. She's not meant to be mine. My beauty, my Aphrodite, could never love a monster like me.
Troy
Vanessa is mine. And I will move Heaven or Earth—or jump into a whole other world—to bring her back home where she belongs.
So what if she’s the one who ran away? Or that she’s found some big shot to take care of her in the time since she’s been gone? I’ll get her back.
Even if we have to go to war.
\*Chase the Beauty is the sixth entry in the Mirrorside series. It’s a twist on the myths featuring both Aphrodite/Hephaestus & Aphrodite/Ares, with a goddess of love who doesn’t believe in the stuff and the gentle giant Hef getting the HEA he’s long been denied.

Make Mine Nymph
2022
In the Other, the Greek gods and goddesses are trapped by magic to relive out their myths in newer, more modern incarnations. For centuries, people find their way to this fantastical world, only to follow a script from an ancient time... until the reborn Artemis changed everything. Now it's her twin's turn to get his happily-ever-after...
Alex Months after my Daphne found her way to the Other, I’m running out of excuses. To her, to my twin, to myself… Gods don’t get afraid. Especially when you’re one of the Twelve. But while there’s no denying that I’m the reborn Apollo, I’m also a man—and I’m terrified that my spitfire from New York is going to wake up one day and realize that she changed her mind. Now, I know I’m a catch. I’m just not so sure she feels the same way. As it is, I’d rather things stay the way they are instead of risking her fleeing from me again… though I’d do anything to convince her that she truly belongs with me. Anything… even play nice with the huntsman. Daphne How much longer am I expected to wait? And, sure, the only reason we didn’t consummate this thing we have between us is because I wasn’t so sure I believed in fated soulmates and one guy for me for the rest of time. Then again, when that guy Alex Harcourt, I kinda like the idea. Being stuck with Apollo is annoying, but to be Alex’s one and only, I can put up with the occasional appearance from the arrogant sun god. He writes poetry for me. Songs. He tells me he loves me, and he shows it in everything he does. But, despite any move I make, we’re stuck in this weird “will they-won’t they” situation that has me ready to climb his gilded walls. Dinner with his sister and her husband sounds like the perfect way to get my mind off of how much I want him. Especially since, if there’s anyone who knows just what goes on in that gorgeous head of his, it’s Noelle. I rarely ask for advice, but in the Other? It’s worth a shot. Literally. \* Make Mine Nymph takes Alex and Daphne’s story one step further to a happy conclusion. With a little advice from family and new friends, they realize that—while they technically have forever… unless Kronos gets in the way—there’s no need to wait to finalize their soulmate bond. This story (~14,000 words) features an explicit sex scene, and is intended for readers 18+.
