Update On The Lords' Gambit Series

3/27/2023

It's time for an update on The Lords' Gambit Series.

It is with an exhausted, reluctant, and heavy heart that I must announce the temporary cancellation of the pre-orders for the remaining three volumes of the series (Vanguard of Justice, Chronicler of War, and Goddess of Fate).

Thank you so much to everyone who has stuck with me as I've attempted to overcome illnesses and re-write the entirety of Vanguard of Justice (the third volume in the series) for you by April!

Over the weekend, it became clear that I had two choices left for the release of volume three:

1.) Release a roughly-edited, rushed final draft of Vanguard of Justice to you on schedule in April.
2.) Allow the retailers to cancel my pre-orders (which would cancel the rest of the series, too).

You all deserve the best I can give you in this series. Oracle of Life (volume one) and Monk of Death (volume two) are both already available to read. Book three, the file that was completely lost on my drives, though quickly revised, is very rough and needs time to go through the proper editing process before it releases.

What this means for you as readers:

Anyone who pre-ordered should now have received a pre-order cancellation notice from the retailers for books three and four.

I am going to step away from the series for a bit to clear my head and come back to Vanguard of Justice with fresh eyes and a fresh mind, to make this the best book of the series yet. When it's polished and ready for the world, I'll launch the book without a pre-order and let you all know it's available.

If you'd like an update when the book goes live, my newsletter subscribers will hear first (you can sign up here to receive my newsletters).

Thank you all again for your support, and for reading the worlds I've created!

Oracle of Life: The Lords' Gambit Series Volume One

11/11/2022

Oracle of Life: The Lords' Gambit Series Volume One is now available for pre-order!

Oracle of Life's Cover Was Designed By Jesh Art Studio

Coming January 17th, 2023

Six fallen lords.
Three vengeful goddesses.
And one mortal, damned to prophesy for them all.

An Exiled Oracle

Nariah, the Heiress of Ellonai, is dead. An exiled, desert-dwelling Doomsayer is all that remains within the shell of the powerful princess she once was.

A Heretic

She isn't sure which of her visions her people hate more: the one where the three benevolent goddesses they serve have decided to destroy the world, or the vision of six lords falling from the skies to save them.

The World's Only Hope

Stumbling across the very lords she's been seeing in her visions for years, only Nariah's accursed gift of Sight can aid the lords in their rebellion against the goddesses, and determine the fate of her world before it's turned to ash.

But does she even want to save those who've wronged her?

Ready to learn more?

Here's a sneak peek at the blurb:

Flames rise on the horizon. The Godmother rises to meet them.

Eliza Farrington the Third is the top Fairy Warrior in the universe, undefeated in both magic and physical strength. She is also The Godmother -- the protector and trainer of the Crown Princess.

For twenty years, Eliza has prepared her charge to bring change to the rule of terror the tyrannical Fairy King and Queen have inflicted upon the worlds. The Princess's kindness and mercy are already renowned, and her coronation is only a month away.

But the Dragon Emperor's legions landing on their doorstep threatens everything.

When the Dragon Emperor presents the sole remaining royal Dragon Egg to the Fair Folk with a deadly proposal, can Eliza change the fate of her beloved Princess?

Or will the hate of multiple generations snuff out their only flame of hope?

3 Weeks 'Til Angel's Abdication Comes Out!

3/19/2022

It is now less than 3 weeks 'til Angel's Abdication comes out!

This is my very first Dark Fantasy Romance EVER, and it kicks off a duology of long novellas about Demon King Draco's relationship with Angel Princess Seracuse.

The second volume of the duology (Angel's Ascendance) is coming out August 9th 2022.

The duology leads right into my full-length dark fantasy romance novel Splitting Dawn, which will be available exclusively in the Realm of Darkness box set (October 4th 2022), and in which Draco will be a prominent character.

If you haven't pre-ordered your copy of Angel's Abdication yet, there's still time to be one of the first people to own a copy by pre-ordering HERE.

Angel Princesses are not supposed to be forced into marriages with Devils.

Especially not the Crown Princess of The Heavens to The Devil Himself...

When Seracuse, the Angel crown princess, discovers her hand has been pledged to Lucef, the Devil himself, she must fall from The Heavens to avoid a life at his mercy.

Abdicating the Angel throne is not an easy feat, though--not with the forces of both The Heavens and The Lower World on her trail.

Stumbling into The Human World, the wounded fallen Angel is rescued from would-be poachers by a charming, enigmatic Demon who takes her in and nurses her back to health.

The spark between them is undeniable and instant--and the bond she finds herself forging with her rescuer is the strongest and purest one she's had with another person in centuries.

If only he wasn't the Demon King, Draco.

And the Devil's brother.

(Pre-Order HERE for the April 9th 2022 release)
