Magic's Daughter
The Broken Realms Chronicle (Book 1)
A headstrong princess must marry a mysterious prince and the situation looks bleak, but a deposed magician’s vengeful plans might just be the catalyst they need for a chance at love. In Lorea, Kiira’s life is perfect. She’s surrounded by a loving family, thrives as the archery commander for the military, and has a man who loves her. Any ideas of continued happiness depart with the announcement of an arranged marriage. No matter what anyone says, she’s convinced the stoic, matter-of-fact prince will never make her happy. Years of traveling taught Terren, the crown prince of Klynotia, the value of being slow to speak and quick to listen. His favorite company to keep is that of his best friend—an enormous Shade Bear who is fiercely protective of him as her bond partner. He’s returned to his kingdom for one reason, so when commanded to marry, he’s convinced having a wife will only disrupt his meticulously laid plans. In the mountains of the Aria Bells, Zerrec, a once respected advisor in the kingdom of Lorea, pines for his love. He’s content tending to his alpine garden, but learning of Kiira’s marriage revives latent desires, and fueled by jealousy, he vows to do whatever it takes to rescue the princess. Set in an original world, Magic’s Daughter is the first record in the Broken Realms Chronicle. This adult fantasy is loaded with adventure, rescue, enemies-to-lovers, magic, fantastical creatures, and enough intrigue to keep you turning the page. ***DISCLAIMERS/TRIGGERS*** It is fade-to-black, has no modern day swear words, and the intimacy level on page is limited to passionate kisses. Potential triggers may be obsessive stalking, parent death, and imprisonment.

Shadow's Son
The Broken Realms Chronicle (Book 2)
Terren and Kiira survived Zerrec’s scheme. They press forward in their Lundemai only to face more struggles, and things intensify as uncovering the truth becomes top priority. Kiira endured her old mentor, but not without some characterizing scars. All she wants is to prove she’s worthy. Left alone in Klynotia while Terren obeys King Grayten’s directives; Kiira does the very thing Terren asked her not to do, and the information she learns may not be worth the price that has to be paid. Terren can finally breathe easily, knowing his wife and Bear are safe. Of course, being married to Kiira means things don’t go as planned. If that isn’t enough to handle, Grayten is not as he remembers, and Terren realizes it will take more than subterfuge to free his people, but to defeat a tyrant, he might have to become one. In Klynotia, Zerrec made a strategic move to make his enemies his pawns, but his years in the Aria Bells softened his memory to the pleasing sensation of power. Men jump at his command, and the sway he holds over the masses means he can have more than just revenge. Set in parallel worlds, Shadow’s Son is the second record in the Broken Realms Chronicle. An adult fantasy loaded with adventure, royal politics, light versus dark, relatable characters, magic, fantastical creatures, and enough intrigue to keep you turning the page. ***DISCLAIMERS/TRIGGERS*** It is fade-to-black, has no modern day swear words, and the intimacy level on page is limited to passionate kisses. Potential triggers may be plots of revenge, knife dueling, sibling fights, and hatred.
