Under Darkened Skies

A librarian with a secret. A prince looking for redemption. A dark discovery that will force them to confront their truths.

Astrea Sovna is destined to die. As a Lightbringer, she’s expected to serve the Helosian government as a battlefield healer; but when the court seer—Astrea’s uncle—has a vision of her being killed in the line of duty, he forbids her to reveal her powers.

Until now, Astrea has gone unnoticed as a junior librarian. But when she gets reassigned to a diplomatic project to strengthen ties between Helosia and one of its neighbors, she finds herself saddled with her past, in the form of returned war hero and her ex-best friend, Prince Varojin Auris.

Forced to work together, Astrea soon learns that although Varojin has been out of her life for years, he’s still the kind, patient friend she remembers. As they navigate old friendships and imperial politics, the pair discovers that the mysterious shadows stalking the city are leaving a trail of murder victims in their wake. And when Astrea becomes a target, a dear friend gets caught in the crossfire…

As Astrea and Varojin begin searching for answers, they realize there is much more to the emperor’s project than political niceties. If the shadows aren’t stopped, Astrea’s future—and the security of the entire continent—hangs in the balance.

The Gloaming

Some fire burns hotter in the darkness…

For readers who enjoy Deborah Harkness’s mix of history and the supernatural, Anne Rice’s morally complex vampires, and Leigh Bardugo’s sharp, contemporary dialogue comes a darkly captivating vampire tale that blends genres as skillfully as it blends gothic romance, danger and desire.

Erin Conrad has learned to live with the fire that burns in her blood – a rare gift that makes her a vân?tor, capable of sensing and destroying the vampires that stalk her city. By day, she pours lattes at the bookish coffee shop she co-owns. By night, she hunts, chasing justice, vengeance, and sometimes just survival. But every kill leaves her a little more hollow, a little more haunted by what she’s becoming.

When her best friend is found dead, his death staged to look like suicide, Erin refuses to accept the lie. As more bodies fall, she follows a bloody trail that leads to two ancient vampires – and discovers someone is recreating their most infamous kills, with her friends as victims.

Her search seems hopeless, until a mysterious Scotsman appears when she needs him the most. Despite everything she knows about trusting strangers, Erin feels an undeniable pull toward him – a connection that threatens to unravel everything she believes about herself and her purpose.

Caught between powerful vampires with their own dark history, Erin must confront long-buried truths while a killer shadows her every move. As passion ignites between unlikely allies, she faces an impossible choice: cling to the vengeance that’s defined her, or risk everything for a love that could destroy her – or finally make her whole.

The Gloaming is the first book in the Blood of the Revenants series.

N.B. The Gloaming contains depictions of violence/adult situations and is only recommended for readers 18+.

The Greenling

Corporatocracy reigns…

Nature’s patience ends…

A young woman is chosen…

Now is the time for a global reset…

Have you ever wondered what life on Earth will be like in the not-too-distant future? The Greenling transports you to 2060, where you will meet Noah, a young Irish woman who finds herself at the tipping point of the planet’s climate catastrophe.

Because of her strange connections with non-human life, she is misunderstood by her family and peers. Through her growing sensitivity to Nature’s communications, Noah realizes she is being chosen to lead an impending planetary reset—one on a direct collision course with global corporatocracy’s unstoppable lust for greed and control.

As she strives to effect environmental change through local and global activism, she begins to wonder if instead of fighting for Nature, it’s time to fight alongside Nature, which has become increasingly sentient with a mind and plan of its own.

Has humanity waited too long? Has Nature been too patient? The stage is now set for what comes next—the beginning of the last battle.

The Greenling blends elements of eco-fiction and magical realism into a relatable coming-of-age call of protest and resistance. This beautifully written, multilayered, and, at times, mystical story follows its endearing and complex characters as they face their unique struggles and triumphs. As their surprising journey unfolds, it progresses from rural Ireland to the Amazon rainforest, through the university halls of Toronto, and finally to the remote realms of Northern Scotland.

The Forbidden

She is someone’s darkest desire

Playing the victim of a vampire king on an island off New Orleans is actress Avalon Morgan’s creepiest role to date. It’s also scary good fun—until the victim of a real killer is discovered on set, laid out for all to see. With production shut down, Avalon can’t stop thinking about the chilling crime scene, or Grayson Avery, the investigator working the case.

With a rising body count and zero leads, Gray can’t help but be impressed by Avalon’s amateur sleuthing, which takes her to the darkest corners of the internet, where killers confess their crimes. One such account is a dead ringer for the murders, but when the evidence vanishes, nobody believes Avalon—except for Gray. With no one they can trust, Avalon and Gray are determined to unbury the truth at any cost, but a return to the deadly island could be the last thing they do.

As they scour supernatural hotspots to perfect their trap, Veritas soon realizes Ian’s carefully cultivated, devil-may-care roguish image hides something much more powerful. And Ian discovers Veritas has shocking secrets of her own. As they’re drawn to each other with a passion as intense as their peril, either love or justice will prevail. But each will have devastating consequences.
