Jane’s young. She’s broke. Oh, and she just discovered she has supernatural powers so bizarre they may end up killing her.
Since she read a biography of Catholic saints and began spontaneously healing the sick and calling down lightning, Jane’s day-to-day has become a trippy journey of self-discovery. Lucky thing a pair of magical special agents appear and offer to train her because it turns out that, not only has Jane’s life taken a hard turn for the weird, but the fabric of reality is beginning to unravel.
Urban legends like Mothman, the Jersey Devil, and Bunnyman are manifesting in a sleepy Pennsylvania town, and they are haaangry.
The good news: Jane’s new boyfriend is part of an ancient corporation of literary superheroes ready to save the world. The bad news: life expectancy for people with powers kind of sucks.
If Jane wants to live long enough to see the year 2000, she’ll have to work with her new mentor, a teenaged, angsty King Arthur; her current crush, cuddly god-man Enkidu, and a gun-nun from a neighboring comba-convent to seize her role as a try-hard hero and stop a middle-aged madwoman from ripping a hole in the multiverse.
This series features M/F and M/M slow burn, steamy romance that starts sweet and gets spicy in later books.
Indie Saint is an urban fantasy adventure with a dose of Sumerian, Arthurian, and modern mythologies, and a dash of romance. Fans of Quentin Tarantino, Tamsyn Muir, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer will enjoy the cheeky writing, toasty romance, and technicolor brawls.
Book Trailer
Neon Redemption: Words of Power book #2 – Purchase on Amazon
Audio Book available on Audible
When your gun-nun friend says, “Go to Sin City for a classified mission,” you book a flight to Vegas.
But Jane doesn’t even make it to the super secret meeting before her life hits the fan. Sana Baba’s hit team is on her trail and her mentor, Dahl, is apparently possessed by the consciousness of an evil, fictional Arthurian villain.
Where, in the utter tornado of events is she going to find time to consider her boyfriend’s proposal? They’ve known each other for like, five minutes, right?
It may be a moot point if Jane dies in action. She’s drained her magical reserves so much that even healing a paper cut will put her in the grave. It’s going to take all of Jane’s courage, propensity for bending the rules, and disregard for authority to stand up to the extranatural jerk off trying to take over Dahl’s life and send it back beyond the barrier of reality.
Suicide Kings: Words of Power book #3 – Purchase on Amazon
Audio Book Coming Dec 2021 on Audible
How is it fair that Jane, miraculous healer and lightning slinging badass, gets all pukey at the sight of blood?
Taking a job in an emergency room for magical agents might not be the best fit, but if Jane agrees to work for the Man for a couple of months, it will give her mentor the time he desperately needs to bounce back from losing his powers, his girlfriend, his job, and his right arm.
So Jane puts her dreams of personal liberty in a full nelson, dusts off her magical powers, and gets ready to step under Big Brother’s thumb.
Surprise! Her corporate responsibilities include a side assignment, too. Investigating the murder of a teenaged necromancer, Jane is stuck playing Watson for the most obnoxious agent on staff – the Sherlock Holmes of Sana Baba’s team of literary superheros.
As the murder net continues to close, Jane’s not the only one inside. Her newly not-possessed mentor is up to his neck in a web of golemancy, sabotage, freelance psychos, and traitors. How can Jane, mildly nauseous and completely out of her depth, stay alive long enough to catch a killer, save her mentor, and plan an epic escape from the most powerful magical corporation in the world?
Righteous Eight: Words of Power book #4 – Purchase on Amazon
Magic is all fun and games until
someone tears a hole in
reality and invites a menagerie of horrors in.
With the multiverse bursting at the seams, the Y2K threat looming, and only a nose ahead of an assassination plot, Jane and her husband grab their bug-out bag, jump in the Hummer, and drive to a survivalist bunker in North Dakota.
It’s great to be reunited with her parents and sisters. It’s great that her mentor’s family and the gun-nuns can join them. It’s not so great that Jane missed her C-Section appointment, the hospitals aren’t safe, and the only person on site who knows anything about surgery usually works on cadavers.
But as monsters begin to breach reality, Jane pushes carefully orchestrated birth plans aside and prepares to take a stand with their scrappy group of would-be heroes to avert the apocalypse. All they have to do is reconstruct a four thousand year old puzzle that was sabotaged, hold the line against an endless parade of sadistic fairytale horrors, and repair the damage to reality – part of which Jane may be accidentally causing by continuing to breathe. Oops.
