The Guardians
“…a fascinating, erotic world full of angels, demons, vampires and ambiguity.” –Publishers Weekly
When I’m reading a book, I want it all. I want romance that warms my heart, pulse-pounding action that keeps me on my toes, and with enough heat to make them curl. I want a unique world that drags me in and characters that spring to life on the page. I want an epic tale of good versus evil, where the villains are frightening and dangerous — but the good guys are just a little worse.
I want it all — so why would I give readers anything less? Meet the Guardians. Have it all…and prepare to fall.

The Iron Seas
Seductive danger and steampunk adventure abound in the gritty world of the Iron Seas, where nanotech is fused with Victorian sensibilities—and steam.
Two years ago, when I pitched this series to my editor, I described it as The Pirates of the Caribbean meets The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, simply because it seemed that no one was familiar with the word steampunk. It’s showing up all over bookstores now, but I say there still isn’t enough steampunk romance… and this series is all about the romance.
It’s a fascinating, dangerous, and new world to explore — and October isn’t too far away.
