Character Art: Priestess of Kamar

Excited to share this new character illustration from the:

Flames of Kalleen adult romantasy dragon-shifter series.

Penelope is a priestess of Kamar, the goddess of flame.

With a harsh, cruel heart, Penelope is determined to keep the temple’s darkest secrets

from coming to light and is wiling to harm anyone

who attempts to expose them.

Can a human heart withstand the flames of a dragon’s soul? 

For centuries, the dragons of Kalleen have ruled the skies. Blessed by the goddess of fire, those born of her power are destined to exist within two worlds, while fully belonging to neither.

As a daughter of the dragon queen, Amelia has always been torn between her humanity and winged form. In meeting Stephen, she found a blossoming love that gave her hope of finding balance.

A dream destroyed when her sister, and future queen, sets her sights upon the same man.

Forced from her lover’s side, Amelia embraces a self-imposed exile, taking refuge in the northern mountains. In this new life of solitude, she banishes painful memories by retreating to her dragon form, sheltering the wounded girl within.

Yet it is an isolation that cannot last, as the new dragon queen’s cruelty bears down upon the kingdom, allowing an ancient enemy to rise. Drawn from her banishment by the pleas of friends, Amelia must choose. Will she embrace the destructive beast within? Or draw upon the frail humanity that lingers dimly in her soul, in a desperate attempt to help her people, and mend a broken heart?

Fractured Moonlight: Pre-Order!

Fractured Moonlight:

A Twisted Fairy Tale

Cover by: Skyla Dawn Cameron

A handsome Huntsman. 

A lost Princess. 

A delicious fairy tale romance awaits! 

***

Once upon a time, a brutal stranger with eerie glowing eyes abducted a princess. The king and queen pursued every clue, but were left to mourn the loss of their eldest daughter and seek solace in their remaining child, Cat. Heartbroken, and terrified of losing her as well, they kept the younger princess safely locked within the palace walls. 

Twenty years later, Cat struggles to become a perfect princess, even as her heart secretly longs for freedom. When her upcoming betrothal is announced, Cat rebels, fleeing in hopes of at least one adventure before accepting her royal fate.

Sir Arawn, famed-huntsman-turned-reluctant-knight, would rather spend his days hunting monsters than in royal service. But at the personal request of his king, the handsome rogue agrees to search for the runaway princess. On his journey, Arawn encounters a ginger-haired lass whose red-hot temper is matched only by her fiery passion. A woman who challenges his patience, honor, and royal responsibilities. The huntsman is torn between his promise to find the errant princess, and his increasing desire to remain at the captivating beauty’s side.

Daughters of the Rose: Pre-Order Now!

Cover by: Skyla Dawn Cameron

A princess for whom the immortal roses bloom.
A queen for whom they wither.
A hero bound to both. 

***

Centuries before Mara held her first blade, another princess dreamt of knighthood. Born second in line to the throne, Clarissa envisioned a life unfettered by protocol. Under the tutelage of the royal guard, she thrived while being trained in the art of swordplay and the knights’ ancient codes of honor.

When her elder brother dies unexpectedly, Clarissa’s destiny is forever altered, thrusting her onto a throne she never desired. In her new position as queen, Clarissa is forced to make choices benefiting the Lorcan kingdom, at the cost of straining the delicate relationship with her remaining family.

Protected from the throne’s demands, Clarissa’s younger sister, Princess Mellissa, is allowed to follow her heart’s desires. Envious of her sister’s freedom, a deep-seated jealousy brews in Clarissa—an envy that grows as Mellissa marries her love, Captain Michael, and bears him a child while Clarissa, desperate to provide the kingdom an heir, remains barren.

When Clarissa’s anger threatens his family, Michael devises a plan, which will not only irrevocably alter the fate of the daughter he seeks to save from the queen’s twisted wrath, but the destiny of the immortal courts.

Character Art: Lady Guinevere

Excited to share this new character illustration from 

The Flames of Kalleen

dragon-shifter epic fantasy-romance series.

Lady Guinevere is an Amethystine dragon-shifter 

Taken as a child by the wicked temples,

she has spent years a victim of their cruel fate.

Princess Amelia, and Guinevere’s brother, Sir Gwain,

are determined to save Guinevere

from the temple’s evil plans.

Art by: Vii Morte

7,000 years ago a lie was born to hide a destructive truth—

a Kalleen Princess defended her Amethystine love to her dying breath.

***

For millennia, Amethystine dragons have been banished from the Kalleen Kingdom, their very existence erased from the annals of history. But some claim, in the icy wastelands to which they were exiled, the Amethystines survived and waited for an opportunity to reclaim their land and birthright.

To protect her kingdom from the wicked and powerful temples that challenge her rule, Dragon Queen Amelia ventures into the ice-swept mountains in search of legends. The path proves treacherous, and the dragons she seeks may be the greatest threat she has yet faced.

Accompanying Amelia on this journey, Conner will stop at nothing to protect her, hoping his devotion and loyalty will be enough to overcome the secrets and family legacy he has kept hidden from the woman he loves.

As Amelia delves deeper into Amethystine lands, she must contend with the ancestral hatred from those her kingdom wronged centuries before, while finding a way to convince the Amethystines that if they fail to stand together both kingdoms will fall. To forge such an alliance, the Amethystine council demands a shocking price, one Amelia may not be willing to pay.
