9th Life
2014
Zookeeper Skyler Ashcraft prefers scorpions to skirts, but flirting with the feral gains new meaning when she unwittingly drugs a feline shapeshifter. The same rules should have applied: Approach with caution and the near-impossible keep your hands to yourself. Bastian is uniquely dangerous among the Ailuro, a people capable of much more than shapeshifting. The way his anger psychically endangers others earned him exile, as self-imposed as mandated. It’s the reason he should leave Sky alone. If only it was that simple. When the predator becomes prey, the hunt is on. If it’s truly survival of the fittest, they can’t hope to win. The zoo’s primary rule of expect the unexpected hardly prepared Sky for this, and in the end, they find there are worse things to lose than your life, and nothing they won’t risk for love. NOTE: New Adult is a diverse genre. 9th Life contains no sex, but the rest of the series does. Mild language throughout. Age appropriate around 16 & up

The Forgotten
2014
There's all the difference between forgive and forget. Nothing in Sky’s life looks the same since she met Bastian-exiled Ailuro, love of her life, and his own worst enemy. The revelations of the last few days, days that saw the end of Bastian’s ninth life, what should have been his last, have rendered her life unrecognizable-but survivable. Bastian can’t claim the same. He only lives with his sins in the hope of keeping Sky out of Maarjaaran hands. His hope lies in hers. And she’ll do anything to save him. Unfortunately, the only thing that might work demands far more from her than simply giving in to the Maarjaaran marks. NOTE: This is book 2 and won't make sense without first reading 9th Life, book 1 of The Naming of Legends.
#3
Skybound
2014
You’ll be the death of him. Word of the Kayaditi has spread, and it seems everyone wants a piece of her. Sky longs to change the Maarjaara, to be free of their expectations. But when she slips down a path that Bastian can’t follow, she’ll find the treacherous climb back is littered with unimaginable truths and unacceptable solutions. AUTHOR'S NOTE: Skybound will not make sense without reading 9th Life and The Forgotten. Sexual situations. Some language. (Paranormal New Adult)
