Their supernatural talents could make them the perfect team — if Hell doesn’t claim them first.

Caleb Lockwood has a foolproof system for winning big in Las Vegas. Being part demon helps. Fresh from his escape from Hell, he’s looking to lie low and build a new life, starting with flipping a haunted house. Too bad his realtor has a knack for spotting supernatural trouble.

Delia Dunne’s business card might advertise “luxury real estate,” but her true expertise lies in cleansing properties of unwanted spectral tenants. When a casino executive hires her to investigate a streak of suspicious wins, she never expects her newest client — the charming house flipper with seemingly unlimited funds — to be at the center of it all.

From the moment Caleb and Delia step into a ghost-infested property, things get complicated: sparks fly between them, spirits vanish mysteriously, and demons start showing up with deadly intent. As Delia digs deeper into Caleb’s past, she uncovers a two-year-old disappearance, a rebellion in Hell, and a secret that could get them both killed. Worse, the powerful figure behind it all is closer than either of them realized — and he’s playing for keeps.

The stakes are high, the odds are stacked, and in Vegas, the house always wins. Unless you’ve got a quarter-demon and a ghost hunter in your corner.

Three eras. Two rival witch clans. One love that defies time itself.

From Prohibition-era Arizona to the wild Old West and beyond, Devynn Rowe and Seth McAllister must fight curses, enemies, and destiny itself in this spellbinding paranormal time-travel romance trilogy.

STOLEN TIME

When the past steals her future, only one man can help her reclaim it.

Time-crossed witch Devynn Rowe lands in 1926 Arizona, hiding her identity from enemy clan member Seth McAllister, her rescuer. As forbidden attraction grows between them, family obligations, bootlegging schemes, and dangerous secrets threaten both their lives…and their impossible love.

BORROWED TIME

When the past becomes their prison, can love be their key to freedom?

Time-crossed witches Devynn and Seth find themselves trapped in 1884 Flagstaff. As they search for a way back to their own time while navigating their growing attraction, they must face both the dangers of the Old West…and a resurfaced enemy threatening to alter history.


KILLING TIME

When time itself becomes your enemy, who can you trust?

Stranded in 1947, witches Devynn Rowe and Seth McAllister are racing against time itself to save Seth’s kidnapped cousin and break a deadly family curse. But as Devynn’s unstable time-traveling powers threaten to trap them in the past and Seth is forced to ally with the enemies his clan has hated for generations, love and loyalty collide in a battle against dark magic, ancient grudges, and a sinister plot that could destroy them both.

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.
