Legend

Magic destroyed the world, and four kingdoms emerged to pick up the pieces.

Living simply, as the new kingdom dictates, Cassie is used to the days of cleaning up after her annoying stepmother and diabolical stepsiblings. For the most part, she's been able to ignore her father's flighty dismissal. However, an approaching war and a new friend have reminded her of how much she misses the family she used to have.

Decisions might make or break some families.

Simon is on his way to enter the war and gain his father's approval. He doesn't want to sit on the sidelines while others fight the battles he's more than capable of joining. When he meets Cassie, he begins to wonder what his life will look like after the war ends.

War is waging at the border of the Kingdom of Dalry, but Cassie is about to engage in her own battle.

With her father and Simon gone, Cassie becomes involved in another war. An evil witch, set on revenge, takes her hostage. She's the key to a spell more than two decades in the making. Her only choice is to go along with the plan until she can get free. Now, Cassie must find a way to defeat the malevolent witch and her resurrected adversary before she loses far more than her glass slippers.

Second Kingdom

Their only chance of survival is to kill the Beast King.

Decades have cost the people of First Kingdom too much. Their welfare is at stake, and they can't seek any help from the Second Kingdom thanks to their illustrious, invisible king. If only they could actually see him, they might be able to kill him and end their suffering. Out of desperation, the people of First Kingdom devise a plan, and for a full decade, they resolve to train assassins.

Their children become the answer.

Roz is part of a team that knows how to wield a knife, shoot a gun, and take down a man with their bare hands. She grew up knowing what her mission is and has no qualms about killing the creature who caused her whole community's suffering. When another loved one begins to show signs of the sickness, Roz hopes their only plan will succeed.
 
Betrayal leads to an inconceivable alliance.

Double-crossed, Roz is left face to face with the Beast King. He isn't at all what she expected, and he isn't as easy to kill as she'd hoped. No matter what she does, he's always one step ahead of her. As time goes on, Roz gets to know the myth and begins to see the Beast King as more than a curse.

Now, Roz has to make a decision: kill him and set her people free, or let him live.

7 Assassins

The king is murdered.

Princess Wren Snow is being set-up. Her father is killed, and the two main suspects are her and her stepmother. Obviously, Wren knows who did it, but the evidence isn't quite pointing in the direction of the evil queen. Hoping for help, she enlists the assistance of Private Detective Ioan Hunter.

He's searching for the truth.

PD Hunter is willing to take the case for the princess. He likes watching her eyes flash at his offhand attitude, and he's willing to bet she couldn't be the killer. Taking on his own line of questioning, Hunter looks into an obscure link which might have nothing to do with the case. However, he's unwilling to leave any lead unscrutinized because lives are at stake.

She's the next target.

Unsure if the conceited, gorgeous PD is going to help clear her name, Wren finds herself almost assassinated by the killer. While evidence is mounting, assassins are confusing the police by shooting at their suspect. As a complete monarchy take-down seems to be in bloom, Wren struggles to find any answers that will confirm her stepmother's involvement.

The killer isn't ready to stop.

With each new death threat, Wren finds herself having to rethink her previous theories and trust PD Hunter to find the culprit. However, in the end, she might not want the answers she was so eager to find. Sometimes, being in the dark is the safest place to hide.  

Realm Walk

Maezy is no sleeping beauty.

She prefers her sword to magic, is more comfortable chopping off limbs than kissing lips, and she can visit people in her sleep. However, life isn't a complete realm walk for a hybrid like Maezy. She has a gift anyone might kill for, and she's trained her whole life to deal with that eventuality.

There should always be a Plan C.

Her father, the Elf King, has sent an army to kidnap her. He wants to use her talent to take over all the realms, but Maezy isn't ready to comply with his wishes. In fact, hoping to stop the onslaught, she's agreed to her mother's plan.

Sorcerer versus Hybrid.

The handsome associate her father has bribed into helping him has some superior warlock powers. Brandalfr's a hybrid as well, and he knows how Maezy feels. He's the only one, though, who can help. With so much at stake, will he be willing to assist her?

They're in this together.

Now Maezy must use more than her sword to beat her father and hold his hot, irritating, hybrid warlock at arm's length. After all, her mother always taught her to never trust an elf.

Reader Reviews

"This is one of the best Christian Fiction books I have read. Seriously--most of the books I pick up to read, I'll read a few chapters and stop because for me they are either too somber or too superficial, or characters are not developed or real, or the type of story has been done over and over, or the writing is not very dynamic.
This story is really good...These are the reasons I like it so much: this book made me chuckle, made me tear up, made me disgusted, made me wonder what's going to happen next, and made me grow closer to the characters. All of the main characters have their own unique personalities, struggles, senses of humor, and strengths that endeared me to them. They were so real that you'd think they were part of your own family or old friends. That's what makes the best part of a book--characters you can relate to and struggles or triumphs you can identify with in some way.
The story is always going, there's no dead space in this book. It's written in such a way that no aspect of the book overshadows another--except for the bond and story of the characters. The mystery doesn't take over, the historical WWII period is prominent in the story, but it's not all about WWII--it's about how a group of friends and family triumph over the darkness of the time and about doing what is right, not only for your fellow countrymen, but all people.
The love story between Zeke and Cody is both sweet and courageous and you can feel the heartfelt emotions they have for each other and their family. They grow throughout the book, which is what I really like to see in stories.
This story would make a great movie. It was written so well I could see it like a movie in my mind. Looking forward to reading the next stories in the series!" ~Freedomswings, The Battle review

"I loved this book! It was fun and quirky. Couldn't wait to pick it up each night to see what would happen next." ~Amazon Customer, Legend review

"This was a surprising retelling of Beauty and the Beast. Instead of occurring in the past, it happens in a distant future where magic exists. Also, everyone knows the curse exists and it affects the whole town. I really liked this version. I've read many retelling of this story because it's my favorite fairy tale and I would happily place this version near the top. I definitely recommend this retelling." ~Gilda Rodriguez, Second Kingdom review

"Now this was a very twisted fairy tale. And we are left with questions still. It definitely wasn't what I thought it would be like. The characters were masterfully done and even though I didn't like one or two of them the reason became clear later on. I can't get over how different the story is from what we usually know." ~Brittany, 7 Assassins review

"Realm Walk kept me interested the entire time I was reading. It's not your typical fairy tale and has a ton of action as well as twists and turns. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes different takes on classic fairy tales. Also, because it's a novella, it didn't take long to read." ~Sarah K., Realm Walk review

"Have you ever asked yourelf, what if not David but Bathseba had written the Psalms? What would they look like? Where would be the mainpoint in the prayers and Psalms? If you want to find inspiring answers and modern Poetry, I highly recommend this book, if you like poetry inspired by the holy spirit, just buy your copy and have a good time." ~W.Susanne, He Delivers Me review

"To sum it up in one word: meaningful. We’ve all had the experiences of crushes, first love, and love lost. The author puts these feelings and more into words that flow eloquently across the page. I also recently used several poems from this collection during a restorative yoga class as a kind of meditation. Following the class, a few participants commented on how much they enjoyed the poems." ~Kristen B., Broken Hearts Can Still Love review

"I loved this book! It was fresh, new, and truly from the heart! Simply a wonderful read. Keep writing, I’m looking forward to your next book!" ~Elmer, Beginnings review
