Who’s afraid of the big bad businessman? Everyone.
On the snowy planet of Amaris, Avarill Engle makes deliveries for her grandmother and the residents of Skift, while avoiding unwanted advances from the gray tycoon Wolfgang Vujic. When the crooked CEO buys the mortgage to her grandmother’s neo-res, the only way to keep their home is to go to work—for him.
With every passing day, Avarill grows more desperate and afraid. Blaiz Weylin, her new friend and expert codestitcher, creates a plan to destroy Vujic, and Avarill eagerly joins the sting operation. But Blaiz’s past entwines with Vujic in ways he can’t confess, even as his feelings for Avarill deepen. When his secret comes to light, Avarill must make a choice: trust in the man who could break her heart or fight to free herself from Vujic’s iron grasp. With one wrong move, her freedom will become a distant memory. Time is running out, and the wolf is closing in.
For fans of The Lunar Chronicles, Jupiter Ascending, and the Ravenspire series, this fantasy retelling of Red Riding Hood is a stand-alone and blends sweet romance, futuristic tech, and high-stakes adventure into a mythical tale of survival and redemption.

Spark is the first book in the Firebrand Chronicles.
This is a second edition with new cover art, an additional short story, and updated content.
Brenna James wanted one thing for her birthday: Belgian waffles.
Instead, her mom has vanished, her ADHD is tanking her history grade, and her hands keep literally catching fire.
When Brenna travels through a portal to find her mom, her arrival in the kingdom of Linneah sparks chaos. A royal is dead. The kingdom’s most powerful relic, the Sacred Veil, is missing. And a griffin has just signed up to be her mode of transportation.
Brenna partners with Baldwin, an irritatingly attractive swordsman, and Arvandus the griffin to rescue her mom and catch the thief who stole the Sacred Veil. But with armies marching and monsters circling, her new priority becomes a lot simpler: don’t die.
Although staying focused has never been easy, she must choose between finding her mom or losing her forever, between saving a kingdom or watching it fall.
If Brenna survives this birthday…well, she deserves waffles.
This is a second edition with new cover art, an additional short story, and updated content.
Vacations should come with a warning label.
Brenna James portals back to Linneah for a surprise romantic reunion with Baldwin. Instead, she stumbles upon him in a cozy moment with his ex.
Heart? Crushed. Trust? Shattered. Sanity? Questionable.
When her best friend Tiny drags her on a “road trip” to her hometown through a sketchy travel portal, the friends become separated, and Brenna’s kidnapped. She escapes but must take part in the dangerous event Starfall or go home, broke and alone—where everything reminds her of who she’s lost.
When she finally arrives in Tiny’s hometown, she finds rampant sexism, vanishing drinking water, and Rune pulling the strings in the shadows. When leadership, love, and loyalty collide, she must decide: settle for what’s easy…or fight for what’s right.
Burn is the third and final book in the Firebrand Chronicles.
This is a second edition with new cover art, an additional short story, and updated content.
Life 1, Brenna James 0.
Her family might be safe in Syeira, but Brenna James’s mental to-do list is a series of impossible tasks: figure out the prophecy, stop Rune, find the Caelestis Staff, save both worlds. Rune is burning through Firebrands like kindling, and the staff he’s after is powerful enough to slice worlds apart.
With Baldwin and Arvandus at her side, every step forward toward solving the prophecy provides a greater challenge—a shifting oasis, ravenous mermaids, and a Skeleton King with boundary issues.
Although Brenna’s brain often refuses to focus, she must find creative solutions in the chaos because Rune isn’t just after the staff; he’s after her. And in this final battle, Brenna must control her Firebrand gift and burn bright enough to save both worlds…or burn out for good.
