New Online Store! 📚 Buy (Signed!) Books Direct from Author

l’ve received a number of requests for a way to either get autographed copies and/or support me as an indie author more directly. I know a lot of people prefer not to support the bigger corporations when possible, too. (Though, of course, remember you can always ask your favorite indie bookstore to order my books for you!) I’ve opened an online store for paperbacks, signed or personalized on request, and it truly is the best way to make sure the most royalties stay with me.

Right now, I’m only offering US shipping, but if you’re from another country and would like to place an order, please comment with the country you’re in and I can try to figure out shipping expenses for you and then add your country as an option on the website before you place an order.

Thank you to everyone interested in supporting me by getting a potentially signed copy for your bookshelves. Please share with your friends who might be interested. I haven’t been able to invest in making any of those fancy, sprayed-edge hardcovers that are popular these days, but if this online store does well, that may finally be something I can look into providing. Please also comment with any requests you may have for kinds of merchandise and for which series so I can start thinking about that, too!

There’s an automatic discount for anyone who spends more than $50 in one order! Since I use media mail for shipping, I think you’ll find shipping rates quite reasonable.

An emboldened merman. The daring girl who agreed to be his champion. The upcoming battle that threatens to change everything they believe in.

Ivy Sheppard never wanted the ability to turn into a mermaid—though her wicked ice powers are nothing to sneeze at. Now her step-sister is her enemy, the fairy she once trusted may not be the ally she hoped for, and her new boyfriend wants her to transfer schools to avoid the vampires taking over Union High. Between dodging parents’ concerns, pretending she can stand to even look at the step-sister who sided with the bloodsuckers, and still aiming to end it all without violence, Ivy is in over her head. Unfortunately, these ancient enemies are itching to get the conflict started and Ivy may have no choice but to become the warrior the merfolk need her to be.

The second book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series starts the war between fangs and fins in earnest as the merfolk plan their assault to bring down the unnatural undead vampires once and for all.

Werewolves and Wargames Release Day!

The sixth A Spooky Games Club Mystery is out today! Dahlia won’t be able to be with her boyfriend for Valentine’s Day, but with a bunch of werewolves in town, she might not have time to feel lonely. When the Spooky Games Club participates in some werewolf wargames, everything seems like fun and games—until someone actually dies. Now Dahlia has to sleuth out the truth or someone Faine cares about is going to pay for the crime!

Dahlia Poplar, Luna Lane’s homegrown witch, has had enough of mystery and murder. Luckily, the royal witches after her may be preoccupied after the blow Dahlia and her friends dealt them the last time they tried to attack. Ready to spend a snowy February warm and cozy at home, the only thing that could have made her first Valentine’s Day with her boyfriend better would be if they didn’t have to confine their celebration to a video chat.

Thankfully, her best friend has quite the plan for holiday: Faine’s parents and in-laws are visiting Luna Lane to spend time with their grandkids, and the kids aren’t into mush or romance. Instead, the family wants to stage an elaborate paintball wargame, which is something the kids enjoy in the werewolf village in Canada. Of course, the Spooky Games Club was practically made to participate.

Unfortunately, the pretend wargames result in an actual murder—and someone near and dear to Faine is thought to have killed for real. It’s up to Dahlia to gear up for the fight and sleuth out the truth. Otherwise, her loving, supportive, and optimistic Galentine will never be the same.

Order on Amazon (free in KU)! Paperback and Large Print Paperback are delayed but will be available widely.

DRYADS AND DOMINOES Cover Reveal!

Today is the cover reveal for DRYADS AND DOMINOES, Book 7 in the A Spooky Games Club Mystery series, coming out in 2024!

Title: Dryads and Dominoes (A Spooky Games Club Mystery Book 7)

Publisher: Crimson Fox Publishing

Publication Date: Fall 2024

Cover Designer: Amy McNulty

Spring returns to Luna Lane, and Dahlia Poplar is ready for the turn of the seasons that may bring her long-distance boyfriend back to her by semester’s end. Until then, she’s doing her best to stay out of the way of the new deputy sheriff after their rocky first impressions of one another. However, a St. Patrick’s Day Spooky Games Club event at the town’s vampire-run tavern may mean it’s time for the town’s consulting witch detective to put her sleuthing skills to the test once more.

Vesper the dryad has been the only schoolteacher Luna Lane has ever known. The usually reclusive wood nymph instructor is lured out to the St. Patrick’s Day party to help her students construct the largest domino toppling setup the town has ever seen. When a couple of dryads from her past make a surprise appearance at the event, the gentle schoolteacher finds herself accused of murder—and the new deputy sheriff is locking her up and tossing away the key.

Dahlia is certain her former teacher couldn’t have committed the crime, but the investigation sets off a chain reaction that seems to build the deputy’s case. Before the facts get lost as it all comes toppling down, Dahlia needs to figure out what really happened—but maybe everything isn’t as black and white as she thinks.

New Audiobook! YA Urban Fantasy/Paranormal Romance

I’m excited to announce the first book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series (YA urban fantasy/paranormal romance), Fangs & Fins, is now available on audiobook! Narrator Xoe Zen does a fantastic job of lending personality to all of the many characters in my vampires, mermaids, and fairies suburban adventure. Available on:

Audible – Amazon – iTunes

A dapper vampire. A sullen merman. Two heirs to a great conflict—and each needs to claim a beloved to become his kindred’s champion.

High school senior Ember Goodwin never had a sister, but after her mom’s remarriage, she now has two. The eldest is no stranger to her—Ivy is a witty girl in her grade who’s almost never spoken to the shy bookworm before—but she’s surprised to find the popular girl quite amiable. Their burgeoning friendship is tested, however, when Dean Horne, a pale, besuited charmer, shows interest in them both and plans to reveal his appetite for blood to the one who’ll stand by his side.

Seventeen-year-old Ivy Sheppard is tired of splitting her time between her dad’s and her mom’s, particularly when her dad uproots their lives to move them in with his new wife and step-daughter. Used to rolling with her parents’ whims, she tries to make the best of it and befriend her nerdy new step-sister. Her hectic life grows more unwieldy when she catches the eye of junior Calder Poole, whom she swears she sees swap well-toned legs for a pair of fins during a dip in a lake. Now she’s fending off suitors left and right, all while trying to get to the bottom of the strange happenings in her town.

The first book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series sets family against family and friend against friend as an epic, ancient war comes to a head in a supposedly sleepy suburb.

Readers are saying this fast-paced YA paranormal romance urban fantasy will “grip you and keep you wanting more.” Fans of Bella Forrest’s A Shade of Vampire and Hotbloods, Amanda Hocking’s Watersong series, and Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight saga will dive right into this modern-day fairy tale about high schoolers swept up in a world of vampires, mermaids, and fairies.

IT’S A NERD! WITCH IS SLAIN! Release Day

Today’s the release day for the second book in the Witchy Expo Services Mysteries series, It’s a Nerd! Witch Is Slain! Case 2: Comic Hero Con.

Witchy Expo Services. We host your convention, expo, or trade show—with a dash of magic!

Nimue Toothaker, recently named co-Head Witch General Manager of Witchy Expo Services, is finally getting a handle on the job—and the dual-personality warlock with whom she shares it. While the fallout from the murder at her first convention as manager certainly led to plenty of publicity, she’s not eager to repeat the dreadful experience for her largest con yet: Comic Hero Con, which brings in comic book fans and comic hero film buffs from around the world.

The highlight of the con? One of the biggest stars in the mega comic hero film franchise of the century. Unfortunately, his real-life persona is nothing like his on-screen one, and it’s up to the Witchy Expo Services staff to make sure the neurotic celebrity shows for his advertised con appearances. To make matters worse, the head of the group that booked the Cauldron Cove Convention Center for the con doesn’t know what she wants—but she knows she isn’t happy with Nimue and her staff’s top-notch efforts.

Juggling two eccentric VIPs is just the start of Nimue’s problems when a Cauldron Cove witch turns up dead on the showroom floor. Because of the town’s magic, the convention must go on—and Nimue and her co-workers will have to table their grief until they can figure out if there’s another murderer in the convention center. It’ll take a heroic feat, but they have to beat the villain on the loose before it’s too late.

Get your copy on Amazon here. (Free on Kindle Unlimited.) Paperbacks available widely (in large print as well) coming soon.
