It’s been a LONG time since I’ve updated my “about the author” and I have so many new followers—here’s a bit about me!

💖My YA romantasy series Heir of Earth and Sky consists of THE CONCEALED, THE CAPTURED, AND THE CROWNED. It’s been a wild couple of years since Aethon Books signed me for this three-book deal, and I’m grateful for all my readers! PS—it’s been harder than I ever thought, but I don’t regret it!

🔪My side project, MURDER AT PLAY, a YA, clue-coded mystery, was recently signed by agent Rachel Estep, from D4EO, and is currently on submission to publishers. What does this mean? I could have a publishing deal next week, next year, or maybe my next book will be picked up, not this one. You guys will find out along with me!

🌵I’m from Arizona and buy sunscreen in bulk for me, my husband, and my two teen daughters. I also have a bossy cat (who doesn’t appreciate the need for sunscreen layers)

🩻 I’m a physician—a radiologist—and finished 15 years of school after HS to complete my training. I used to be a doctor in the Air Force. I started writing because I wanted something creative after reading so many medical books.

📚 I write books I’d feel comfortable for my teen daughters to read—Kissing-only. If you’re looking for spice in YA, look elsewhere. But if you want a bit of swoon, you’re in the right place.

IT’S HEEEERRRRE!!!

The trilogy is complete with the final book on audio! Confession: I listen to 90% of my reads so having audio for this series has been a dream come true!

And do I gush about my narrators? I do! @amandaleighcobbnarrator does such a great job and has a huge list of credits to her name including Sarah J Maas and Carissa Broadbent. And @joejamesonvo adds the perfect authenticity with his London accent (he’s an Audie nominee too!) The first time I heard him bring the villain to life— CHILLS! Both narrators make me fall in love with my characters all over again.

The crown will be claimed—by destiny, by blood, or by betrayal.

The crown should be hers. But when Cate discovers the enemy’s leader, Rowan, holds her family hostage in Oregon, she must face the unstable portal without a guide, leaving the kingdom in the hands of the power-hungry Baron Graftonberg, whose greedy eyes are set on the throne.

With a ticking timeline and Daniel and Lucas by her side, her decision could forever threaten Caelum’s livelihood, jeopardizing the fragile peace with Terra. As trouble and suspicion escalate, Lucas and Mya are forced apart, endangering their new relationship.

With love at stake and betrayal rampant, war brews between Terra and Caelum, while the Embers plot to destroy whoever survives, capitalizing on the chaos.

The next to be crowned will either topple the kingdoms or usher in their salvation.
