READY TO BINGE? This is the complete AMAZON BESTSELLING SERIES, Vincent and Eve
Rising
All I want is to leave my crime-ridden shadow of a home in New York City. I’ve done everything I can to keep my head down and focus on my studies. College is my only goal; love has never been on the map…
That is, until my sister brings me to an underground fight, where I meet a gorgeous and mysterious man: Vincent.
He is the ghost in my shadows, showing up to feed me pieces of his upper-crust life, then evaporating into darkness until his next visit. I’m falling hard and fast. How can I trust him amidst the depth of his secrets?
Vincent may be even more dangerous than the dark world I’m trying to escape.
Reckoning
Vincent: Forgetting about Eve was the plan. Finding her at a party on my college campus was the last thing I expected.
My world has turned into a house of cards, where one wrong move can send it all crashing down…and us with it.
Eve: Finally at a prestigious university—and on the path to living my dreams—I’ve left the darkness of the Blue Houses behind. Still, a whole new host of problems await me.
Vincent is the king of the school. I thought I wanted to know what he was hiding, but unlocking his biggest secret leads me into entirely new territory laced with danger and lust…one I’m not sure I’ll survive.
Redemption
Vincent
Through every drop of blood I spilled, I lost a piece of my soul. I’ve sacrificed seven long years and the woman of my life for the Family. But I’m not done fighting—not yet.
Eve is still out there. I will stop at nothing to get her back.
Eve
After having my heart torn out by the son of the biggest crime family in New York, I was forced to start over in California. With three thousand miles between me and my past, life is finally set on cruise control.
As for love? It’s not worth the fight.

WINNER OF THE INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER AWARD FOR FANTASY ????? “Loved, loved this book. Tones of the Dark Tower with such interesting characters.” ????? “This is a must read!” ????? “I CAN’T WAIT for Book 2!” THE WORLD IS WINDING DOWN. Centuries after humanity’s last stand against the Dark Filament, their servants–the bloodthirsty creatures known as Incarnates–hunt down anyone under the age of eighteen. Civilization is broken, and the remaining population is elderly, isolated and hopeless. Sixteen-year-old Korden Bright has lived his entire life behind the Barrier, a mystical shield which hides him from the Incarnates. There, a group of ancient men from the time before apprentice him in the magical discipline of artcraft, based upon one’s creativity and force of will. When the Barrier is breached, Korden will leave to journey across a post-apocalyptic America, from the shores of a place once called California, all the way to the Shroud in the far east, which marks the battlelines of the armies of the Filament. But first he’ll have to survive the wild forest just beyond his village, where he might find something far worse than Incarnates… “A wonderful mix of dystopia with a dose of high fantasy.” — Book Geeks Uncompromised ” Through the Dark Forest had a way of captivating me. Whether it was the fascinating take of a post-rapture world, or the strange encounters along the way, I could hardly pull myself from the pages.” — The Nightmare Feed
