What Claws Beneath the Crown
After the Great War, the realm teeters on the brink of chaos, plagued by unrest and fragile alliances. The Unseelie Court has long been dormant and nearly forgotten. Until now.
Princess Zara of Masseda would do anything to avoid becoming queen. Reckless and selfish, she longs to be free from the crushing weight of her crown. But when her stepmother forces her into an arranged marriage to Prince Leer of Lanray, Zara has no choice but to accept her fate. Unable to shift like most Fae, Zara is seen as a liability, especially by Leer's brooding and arrogant squire, Alfrie.
Haunted by his tragic past, Alfrie owes his life to Prince Leer. Supporting the prince’s engagement to Princess Zara is just another one of his duties and he expects Zara to be just like every other royal—spoiled and blissfully unaware of the world beyond their sheltered lives at court. And when they meet, Zara’s clumsy magic and childish behavior prove him right.
But after a brutal attack on Masseda by the Unseelie court, Alfrie is tasked with teaching Zara to hone her shifting abilities to prepare for an imminent battle, igniting a forbidden spark between them. In the midst of buried secrets and the looming threat of war, they discover their shared enemy may be closer than they imagined, and Zara’s greatest threat might be the one male she can’t resist.

Exes on Deck
Available NOW
For the past 25 years, Beth Collins has been stuck in a loop of safe choices and silent regrets. Now, recently divorced, battling a health scare, and turning 50, she has been given an unexpected gift—a 10-day luxury cruise intended to help her breathe again. But instead of cocktails and calm seas, Beth comes face-to-face with the past she thought she'd left behind: buried feelings, unfinished business, and a heartbreak she never quite moved on from.
Joining Beth is her uptight, workaholic daughter, Meghan, who treats emotions like the plague and vacations like a personal attack. Meghan’s plan is simple: keep her mother alive, avoid eye contact, and answer emails at sea. But when she meets her own ex, the one she never completely shut out of her heart, Meghan's iron grip on her well-organized life begins to fade.
Between umbrella drinks and family drama, Beth and Meghan will have to navigate old wounds, unexpected sparks and the terrifying possibility of happiness. It isn’t just a vacation—it’s a second chance at love.
