Sea So Blue
Caspian is looking for his mother. Snatched from the beach
as a child and raised as a half-breed Mer-Prince in the long-lost city of
Atlantis, his turn to rule is coming fast. When Caspian learns that the Mer in
Oceania have found a method to visit land—a practice forbidden in Atlantis—and
later return to the sea. Unfortunately, the “magic” method involves poison so
potent that only half-breeds with undamaged lungs can survive it. When his Sea
King father forces Caspian’s engagement to a mermaid he can’t stand, Caspian
decides it’s time to go in search of his human roots, and the woman who gave
him life.
Elise has nothing left to lose, except the house she grew up
in and a beat-up classic car her father had intended to restore. While her
friends leave home for college and abroad, she’s stuck waitressing at The Sea
Turtle, begging for enough hours to pay her power bill, and using her lunch
breaks to place flowers on her parents’ graves. Not only is she not looking for
love—she’s not even looking for friendship. Loss is something she knows too
much of, and she can’t survive any more. But when she finds a mysterious
stranger wandering the cemetery, she takes pity on the pathetic soul and brings
him to her work where she can feed him a solid meal.
The innocent meeting turns into an unbreakable bond, and
sets off a chain of events that leaves them both questioning their place in the
world—be it land or sea—and discovering just how essential love and family can
be.
Recently forced into the underwater city of
Atlantis, Emma Harris has managed to avoid marrying the merman who brought her,
but her grandfather—the Sea King—insists that joining with the abusive Merrick
is inevitable. When Emma discovers a poison that might restore her human lungs,
she goes in search of the rare creature that carries it, prepared to try the
poison no matter the cost, so she can return home to her family—and to James.
Since his girlfriend went missing, James’
depression has destroyed his chance at a basketball scholarship and incurred
the wrath of his uncle, who was once his strongest supporter. When the police
inform him that he’s a suspect in Emma’s mysterious disappearance, James sells
his beloved motorcycle to buy a boat so he can find Emma and prove his innocence
before going on trial for a murder he didn’t commit.
-->
With destiny against them, it’s only a matter
of time before both are imprisoned forever.
Legacy
Only the strongest will survive…
Abby and Kye have lost everything but each other. They’re on the run and Abby’s wound from the Arawn Dagger is draining her power—which is also her life force—leaving her unable to access her Light or her Healing ability.
As Kye and Abby fled Mexico, her mother slipped her information that led her to believe her “dead” father might still be alive. While the hunt for him takes them back through Abby’s childhood homes, they’re forced to question everything they’ve been taught and everyone they’ve ever trusted.
Including each other.
When Abby’s best friend is kidnapped by demons, Abby and Kye launch a rescue attempt that morphs into a battle. Abby needs to prove she has what it takes to rid the world of demons, or the royal bloodline and the Gifted generation will be obliterated once and for all.

Water So Deep
Coming February 2, 2015
Seventeen-year-old Emma
Harris is drowning on dry land.
No one knows what’s happening to her, and she’d like to keep her evolution from human to mermaid a secret, but the truth is getting harder and harder to hide. From her adoptive family, from her friends, and especially from the irresistible James Phelps.
Her time in the ocean is spent dodging a possessive merman, while her time on land is split between caring for her special-needs brother and squeezing in every last possible moment of human life. She soon realizes falling for James is unavoidable when he constantly comes to Emma’s rescue and somehow manages to see through her carefully constructed icy facade to the vulnerability she lives with every day. Everything about James makes Emma yearn for a life on land she just can't have.
When Emma’s brother disappears on her watch, James is the only person she trusts to help her save him. But even if they can save her brother, nothing can prevent her return to the sea. Whether she likes it or not, Emma is changing—unable to breathe without yielding to the tide—and it's only a matter of time before she's forced to surrender forever.
Birthright
May 1, 2014
Two months ago,
Abigail Johnson saved the life of the boy she believes is her destiny and
defeated an army of demons that have pursued her ancestors for centuries. Now, she
and Kye should be taking their place as leaders of the new generation of
Gifted, but the curse they thought was broken has returned, and every minute
together brings them closer to death.
When remaining shadow
demons attack again, the Dragons send Abby to Mexico. But she isn’t any safer
here than she was back home. The shadows have tracked her, the locals expect
her to help with their own demon problems, and the more time she spends away
from Kye, the more she doubts the destiny that ties them together.
When the demons
destroy her safe house, Abby has no choice but to take the fight to them. The
arrival of an old nemesis throws their careful plans into disarray, and Abby
and her friends find themselves facing new adversaries in a battle that turns
fatal. This time, not everyone will make it out alive.

Seventeen-year-old Abigail Johnson is Gifted.
Blessed—or cursed—with Sight and Healing, Abby lives an unsettled life, moving from place to place and staying one step ahead of the darkness that hunts her. When she arrives in Jackson, Wyoming, she is desperate to maintain the illusion of normalcy, but she is plagued with visions of past lives mixed with frightening glimpses of her future. Then she meets Kye, a mysterious boy who seems so achingly familiar that Abby is drawn to him like he’s a missing piece of her own soul.
Before Abby can discover the reason for her feelings toward Kye, the darkness catches up to her and she is forced to flee again. But this time she’s not just running. She is fighting back with Kye at her side, and it’s not just Abby’s life at stake.
