A Mark Unwilling

2018

This isn’t your average apocalypse. We’ve got biblical figures to the right, the Angels and the Devils, and ancient myths to the left, gods and all. I’m somewhere in the middle, though I’m sure some might think I lean more towards the right. My soul belongs to a Demon, you see, because my oh so loving parents sold it before I was born for money and privilege. Too bad none of that means anything now. Is it all connected? Probably, if my bad luck has anything to say about it. When the owner of my soul comes and forces me to do things I hate, well, I’ll deal with that when the time comes. For now, I’m going to get my friends and family out of here, somewhere safe. To all the gods and Angels in my way: watch out. With my Mark, I’m invincible. Death will not have me yet. When my Demon comes knocking we’re all in trouble. Especially me. Because he is not what I expected. Devastatingly handsome and infuriatingly annoying. Death will not have me…but the Devil might. A Mark Unwilling is the first in The Reckoning trilogy, an Urban Fantasy/Apocalyptic mashup perfect for fans of Buffy, Supernatural, and quirky characters! Out soon: book 2, A Betrayal So Cruel.

A Betrayal so Cruel

2018

Welcome to the end of the world. Entrances to the Underworld are to the right, and the road to Hell is on the left. Humanity wasn’t prepared for Armageddon. We didn’t think anything could take us down. How stupid. All it took was the Four Horsemen and a vengeful Hades, along with a crazy cult that Deb ran from. We’ve lost so much along the way, but it isn’t over. It will never be over, not until Hades gets what he wants. What does he want? I don’t know, but I’m going to find out and make sure he never gets it. He hates me, hates Dagon, and for that, I hate him. I don’t care about his reasons. Earth and its people are not toys for the gods and Angels. And Dagon—oh, Dagon. Despite it all, he can be sweet. But I don’t want sweet. I want danger. I want to live before I’m forced to play a part in this ancient war. I’m being watched, lied to. I can’t trust anyone anymore. I can’t depend on anyone. Nothing is true in this apocalypse. Those with the prettiest of faces are the worst offenders of all. The Devil cannot have me…but that won’t stop him from trying. A Betrayal so Cruel is the second in The Reckoning trilogy, an Urban Fantasy/Apocalyptic mashup perfect for fans of Buffy, Supernatural, and quirky characters! Out soon: book 3, A Reckoning so Sweet

A Reckoning so Sweet

2018

This is it. The end of the world. Armageddon. The apocalypse...and it isn’t going to be pretty. I lost count how many months have passed since that fateful day, since I was betrayed by someone with a heavenly face. The world is dying. There’s hardly any water, hardly any food. What’s left of humanity is dying out, and I can’t do anything to stop it. There’s more to this, though. Hades doesn’t just want revenge on Satan and Dagon—no, there’s something else he’s after. Something ancient with seven pairs of giant red eyes. I have to stop him. I won’t let him get away with what he’s done to us. To me. This is a game to the gods, a prophecy to the Seraphs. The Reckoning is here. To fight Hades, I’ll go to the one place Dagon isn’t welcome, the one place no Angel can go. Olympus. Maybe with the gods’ help, I’ll figure out just what it all means. One mistake is all it takes. One mistake to unravel everything. When failing’s not an option, what happens after I make the worst mistake of all? I always said the Devil couldn’t have me, but that was the biggest lie of all. He can. A Reckoning so Sweet is the third and final in The Reckoning trilogy, an Urban Fantasy/Apocalyptic mashup perfect for fans of Buffy, Supernatural, and quirky characters!

Hey guys! I'm a writer, an office worker, a wife, a mother to two dogs and two cats, and half of a strange pair of young adults who flip the houses they're living in with the goal of having no mortgage (so that I can eventually focus on my writing career!). Needless to say, I'm busy. Still, I somehow find time to write, to read, and to enjoy life. Wish there were more hours in the day, really! If you're active on Goodreads and have similar interests, friend me. I don't bite. Or if you'd rather follow my reviews, you can do that, too. Happy reading!
