About the author
I grew up in a library tucked away in mountains of Maine; raised by a woman who loved God, His Holy Mother, and reading. I’m inspired by Catholic theology, mysticism, and the lives of saints, as well as thrilling, eccentric and dreamy stories, fairytales and mythology, and world history. I'm fascinated, narratively, by the ties that bind, relationships, and power dynamics, secret identities, medical ethics. I enjoy writing slow burn romance, mystery and thriller, action, and geo-political plotlines. My favorite kinds of stories to tell are about the most unlikely heroes with lots of twists and turns. I'm a dirty rare-pair shipper, and a once ruthless DM.
I like to think deeply about the world around me, and my own personal journey influences the stories I write. I pray extensively about everything I write these days. God bless.🙏💕🌹

Romance
The Princess & The Outlaw
A princess forced into a deadly game, a masked outlaw with a dangerous grudge, and an enchanted, mechanical monster hunting them both.
In the fractured Kingdom of Stormwatch, Princess Adora is a political pawn. Thrust into a brutal contest for her hand by the ruthless Prince Nicobar, her future looks grim-until the arrival of a mysterious competitor. Wearing a plague mask and calling himself the 'Prince of the People,' this daring stranger challenges the court's tyranny. But he isn't just playing a game; he's hiding a dark secret that could upend the entire kingdom. With a relentless, enchanted metal Sheriff closing in and a magical storm brewing on the horizon, Adora must make a terrifying choice: play safe and remain a captive, or risk everything for a love as wild as the magic of Stormwatch.
