There's no magic in any realm that can fix this mess. I've just got to dig in and get to work.

One day I'm fighting beside my best friends in the Fae realm, and the next I can't light a candle without burning down my house.

I always thought witches weren't supposed to have hot flashes unless we were cursed.

But then the day came when I discovered that I'm cursed.

How?
Well, the pandering ex and the nearly-empty nest would be bad enough on their own.
But did I mention the demonic assassin who's set his sights on me too?
I told you, I'm cursed.

I'm also done with letting life just happen to me. Nothing has been the same in Cottlehill Wilds since my best friend Fiona showed up. Me included.
Fate better stand up and take notice. This witch is just getting better with age.

At forty-four, I know who I am. I have what it takes to fix my wild magic, deal with this killer demon, and save the supernaturals who call my small English town home.

And I can do it all despite the wild magical flares, the stray chin hair, and my new wrinkle.

Solving a murder is dangerous business. So is falling in love…

Lady Chastity Fallon will not stand idly by while her sister is suspected of murder. Since no one wants to help, she’ll take matters into her own hands. The plan? Simple. She’ll disguise herself as a servant and investigate. But when her ruse leads her to the enigmatic Lord Kendall, Chastity soon realizes nothing in her life will ever be simple again…

As much as Valentine would like to ignore the scheming beauty who claims to be a servant, he simply can’t. He needs her. Bringing his footman’s killer to justice would be impossible without her, because the vivacious Chastity can do what he can’t—talk to people and gain their trust. So, he’ll accept the chaos she brings into his life. Accepting her into his heart, however, is another matter entirely…

Fortunately for Chastity and Valentine, intrigue has a way of putting lovers on the path to happily ever after. But first, they’ve got a killer to catch…

Award-winning author of Thwarted Queen writes a dark historical, about a hidden murderer and how far he will go to control his wife.

When Angelina, the black sheep of the Pagano family, meets the mysterious Mr. Russell, she has no idea that she has seen him before…in another country.

And so begins "Farewell My Life," a novel in three parts, which spins an operatic tale of dangerous love, obsession and loss; of crumbling, dissolving and nothingness.

"The Lost Mother" slices back and forth between time and space, opening in Georgetown, Washington D.C. in the Fall of 1921, while reflecting a family’s troubled past in Marostica, in the 19th century Italian Veneto.

"An Unsuitable Suitor" is a Cinderella-ish tale with not-so-charming princes who inhabit the edgy setting of 1920s Berlin.

"Farewell My Life," set in Berlin during the dark 1930s as the Nazis gain power, takes comfortable lives, assumptions and civilizations and crumbles them into ash.

And all of this revolves around 17-year-old Grace, Angelina’s younger daughter, whose fabulous talent for the violin promises a shimmering career.

That’s what the note with orange juice and a muffin next to my bed says when I wake up.
That’s it. No phone number, no text.
