But she could find it in herself to hope.
“Maybe it’s not such a bad time of year after all. Io Saturnalia, Brett.” Wrapping her fingers into the silky wildness of his hair, she pulled him close for a kiss.

Like sexy, funny heroes? You’re going to love grownup Peter Pan…
In a corrupted Never Land, Peter becomes a young man as the boyhood fantasy around him grows the jaded teeth of adulthood. Pirates, once confined to a single ship, have taken over the coasts, mermaids work the brothels of Buccaneer City, and worst of all, fairies are disappearing at an alarming rate. Peter returns to Earth to fetch Wendy—and instead finds her great-great-great-great granddaughter Gwendolyn, a musician with big dreams and even bigger responsibilities that keep her from living them. She doesn't have time for the shenanigans of a charming swashbuckler with his head in the clouds. But together, the woman who never had a childhood and the man who never grew up may be the perfect team to save the Never Land.
Available November 2019
A fast-paced romp of action, mythology, and romance
Godstone: an ancient artifact, about the size of a man’s thumb, that allows the bearer (a “conduit”) to channel the powers of a god.
And thanks to the infamous Sofia Messner, who channeled Sumerian god Ishtar and murdered a man on livestream, everyone knows they exist… and everyone wants one. Since then, godstones have become illegal, the US military has been stockpiling them, and secret societies of illegal conduits have popped up across the world.
When Rafael Marquez, front man for the up-and-coming rock band Rage Riot, returns to Texas to sober up and finish his education, the last thing he expects is for a godstone to literally roll itself to his feet. The chance to channel Coyote—an Aztec trickster, god of music and parties—is something he cannot turn down. But a new conduit is a weak conduit, and magical badasses from around the country arrive to steal his acquisition before he can learn how to use it.
He convinces a fellow newbie—the gorgeous streetfighter Freyja—to partner up with him. She’s equally inexperienced with magic, but she can throw a punch. And an ax. And he wants her bad in all the worst ways. But his mysterious partner has a history so secret even she doesn’t know it all. When it leads them to a magic so powerful everyone—other conduits, every secret society, the US freaking government—would kill for it, they’ll need more than axes and beginner-level magic to stay alive…
The adventure begins in Found Magic.
Looking for a walk on the wild side?
Meet the men and women of the Confederation of Vampires International. You’ve never met vampires quite like these. Charlie, a shy carpenter from 18th century France who never came out, and the modern human who broke his heart (Immortal Longing). Javier, a former foster kid who became a doctor—and Emma, the one-night stand who made him a vampire (Immortal Rage). And Elvira, a former demon summoner who’s been running from hell for centuries… but hell’s coming to collect (Immortal Fire--coming in 2020). Filled with magic, unforgettable characters, and a world on the verge of an apocalypse, the series combines the worldbuilding of urban fantasy with the emotion of a romance. **Austin Immortals is my most intense series with steamy romance and some horror elements.**
This is fresh. Sharp. Funny, as in laugh out loud at times. Sweet and sad and all the rest.
Really well done. ~ Gloamingwood (Amazon Reviewer)
I loved this unique take on vampire lore. ~ JTorleif (Amazon Reviewer)
