Three complete fantasy romance novels: Dragon Rose, Ashes of Roses, and One Thousand Nights. (Books 1-3 in the Tales of the Latter Kingdoms series)

DRAGON ROSE:
Rhianne Menyon would rather face the Dragon than marry the odious merchant her mother has chosen. When her secret painting talent threatens her family’s ruin, she makes an unprecedented sacrifice — taking her best friend’s place as the Dragon’s Bride. At Black’s Keep, she expects a monster but finds Theran Blackmoor, a man shrouded in mystery whose gentleness awakens unexpected feelings. Yet she glimpses his terrible true form and discovers a graveyard of previous Brides who chose death over their fate. When prophetic dreams reveal a stranger’s face she’s compelled to paint, Rhianne must discover if her gift for seeing truth can break five centuries of a curse.

ASHES OF ROSES:
Emperor Torric Deveras refuses a loveless marriage, hosting a five-day celebration to choose his Empress from all marriageable women in his kingdom. Ashara Millende should be a noblewoman, but her scheming stepmother stole her inheritance, leaving her a servant in her own home. She dreams of escape and true love — but attending the Emperor’s festivities seems impossible. When a mysterious woman offers Ashara the chance to win her heart’s desire, she must decide if she’s bold enough to reach for love beyond her station. Will she discover that the greatest transformation comes from believing she deserves her happily ever after?

ONE THOUSAND NIGHTS:
Princess Lyarris marries Hierarch Beshalim Kel-Alisaad for political alliance, but her husband remains distant, haunted by his first wife’s execution for treason and adultery. Though intelligent and devastatingly handsome, Besh keeps Lyarris at arm’s length…while his eyes burn with controlled desire. When Lyarris discovers the tragic truth behind the execution and meets the amber-eyed child who may not be Besh’s daughter, she understands his emotional walls. But Chancellor Tel-Karinoor works to keep them apart, and palace enemies threaten their lives. Using her storytelling gift, Lyarris must breach Besh’s defenses before the past destroys their future.

The Watchers Trilogy boxed set includes:

FALLING DARK

Everything changed the day she died…

After surviving a life-threatening car accident, Serena Quinn has been plagued by visions she can’t control. Overwhelmed by the fear of losing herself to these unwelcome glimpses into other lives, she withdraws from society, seeking solace in isolation. But a sudden and mysterious attack by an unknown assailant thrusts her into a hidden world ruled by cunning, malevolent vampires, where the enigmatic Silas becomes her unlikely guide.

Silas vows to protect her, but Serena is torn, unsure who she should trust. Even as she battles her growing attraction to Silas, her adversaries grow bolder, coveting her extraordinary abilities for their own dark purposes.

Unfortunately, her bond with her new and unexpected guardian might not be enough to protect her in the end….

DEAD OF NIGHT

When death isn’t the worst thing that can happen to you….

Psychic Serena Quinn should be dead. Instead, she’s trapped in a deadly game of cat and mouse with a centuries-old vampire master who seems to know her better than she knows herself. Every vision that bleeds through her mind reveals another twisted connection between them — one that goes deeper than captivity, darker than she ever imagined.

Silas Drake is coming for her. But as Serena matches her captor wit for wit, claw for claw, she’s starting to wonder: what if the monster holding her prisoner isn’t the real threat? What if the visions screaming through her skull are trying to warn her about something far worse?

Some fates are more terrifying than death…but some bonds can never be broken.

RISING DAWN

A drop of blood holds their only hope…or their destruction.

Serena Quinn is walking a tightrope strung between grief and despair. As long as Lucius Montfort holds her lover Silas captive, she is forced to pretend she’s besotted with the vampire whose offspring murdered her sister. Worse, conflicting visions of the future show her with Lucius, then with Silas — and their child. Which future is real?

As if that’s not enough, Lucius needs money — lots of money — to find a cure for vampirism. He’s got his eye on the Quinn family coffers, which Serena’s brother will empty if vampire blood can save his terminally ill daughter.

In the meantime, Serena struggles to paint a convincing picture of complete devotion to Lucius, while holding out for a miracle that The Watchers will manage to rescue her captured lover. But as her visions for any future at all shred and ravel away to almost nothing, one last chance lies in a completely unexpected blood tie that could save them — or destroy them both.

Some legends are real. Some secrets are worth protecting.

Sidney Lowell didn’t plan to return to Silver Hollow, her sleepy hometown nestled against ancient forests in Humboldt County. But when her mother and grandmother vanish without a trace while investigating the mysterious creatures that have appeared to the women in her family for generations, Sidney has no choice but to come home.

Almost finished with veterinary school but lacking her diploma, Sidney takes over the family pet shop while searching for answers. The magical beings that only appear to the women in her family might hold the key to her mother’s disappearance — if only she knew how to communicate with them.

Ben Sanders, a struggling cryptozoologist with a YouTube channel and a failed academic career, arrives in Silver Hollow chasing rumors of a glowing white horse in the woods. What he finds instead is Sidney — guarded, capable, and hiding secrets that could make his career…or destroy what’s left of her family legacy.

When a logging company threatens the ancient forest that serves as a crossing between worlds, Sidney and Ben must race to protect the magical gateway. As they uncover Celtic symbols carved into trees and standing stones that appear only during the dark of the moon, the truth becomes clear: Sidney’s missing family didn’t just disappear — they crossed over.

With the unicorn as their guide and corporate greed threatening to destroy the portal forever, Sidney must decide who to trust with her family’s centuries-old secret. Because saving the crossing might reunite her with her mother and grandmother…or seal them away in another world forever.

Their chemistry could make their show a monster hit — if the monsters don’t kill them first.

On the surface, psychologist Audrey Barrett is the perfect co-host for Michael Covenant’s new cable series, Project Demon Hunters. She’s smart, articulate, and photogenic as hell.

There’s just one problem. Michael has made it his mission to stay out of her orbit. Thanks to his producer’s stubborn insistence, however, there’s no avoiding her — which means Michael will have to bury his secrets even deeper.

After the tragedy that took her parents more than ten years earlier, Audrey has kept herself on the fringe of the paranormal world. But with her small therapy practice floundering, the money the show’s offering is too good to pass up.

From the moment they step inside a rundown mansion, things start flying: sparks between Audrey and Michael, not to mention furniture hurled by something determined to make sure their investigation fails. Worse, evil seems to have followed Audrey home — and she discovers why the man at her side on camera is the last man she can trust in real life.
