My Books

Clearly, I'm an author. While my main series is the one I'm publishing first, that doesn't mean that it's the only thing I'm working on. Here's a more in-depth preview on what each of my works are like.

Book One in the Ember Series

The Ember in the Winter

For over a century, Morana Altair has haunted the shadows of Zemira, the elven realm beyond the Barrier. As the infamous assassin of King Kieran of Aesira, her name alone sparks fear. Whispers of her wrath have crossed borders and turned to myth—until now.

Ezra Chandler has lived a quiet life in Ravaryn, far from war, far from the chaos stirring up in Zemira. But when strange occurrences draw him into the forests he was warned not venture too far into, he's pulled into a world he’s only heard of in warnings and bedtime stories.

But what happens when he realizes that all he’s been told about those on the other side of the Barrier is wrong? When he realizes that the people he’s grown up around for all of his life aren’t what they seem?

Book 2 in the Ember Series

Nine Shadows

Ezra Chandler never asked for this life, full of violence and threats at every corner. 

But, due to a prophecy that barely anyone knew about to begin with, he’s now at the heart of a destiny he never wanted.

To keep him safe, the King of Aesira sends him and Morana Altair—the kingdom’s deadliest assassin—into hiding in the coastal, autumn kingdom of Vellamo. But peace is a fragile illusion, and the world refuses to stay quiet.

Back in Aesira, Morana’s sister Aurelia and the elusive God of Deception, Killian, are working to keep the dead in Báile an Bháis from clawing their way to the surface. The barrier is thinning. The balance is shifting. And the cost of silence may be more than any of them can pay.

Something is stirring beneath the surface of Zelyth.

And the lies that built the world may not hold much longer.

Standalone

Buried Heavens

Helia Valeriev has always been invisible—just another servant girl lost in the shadows of Solasta’s golden halls.
Scrubbing floors, tending stables, and bowing to those who barely acknowledge her existence—until one impulsive act of bravery alters everything.

When she crosses paths with Prince Rowan Cresswell, Helia’s life takes a turn she never could’ve imagined. At just ten years old, she gains an unlikely friendship with a highly praised noble—and a sliver of opportunity.

As years pass, that bond deepens, and Helia seizes her chance to rise, training under the same master as the prince himself. Her dream? To become an eques, a warrior in her own right—not by blood or marriage, but by merit.

When Rowan offers her a place at his side as his future wife, Helia is forced to make an impossible choice: follow a path paved in privilege, or forge her own with sweat and sacrifice.

She chooses the latter.

Years later, a battle-tested Helia returns to the kingdom that once overlooked her. But not as a servant…
As Prince Rowan’s guard.
