A HEROINE WITH MAGIC.
BUT POWER ALWAYS COMES WITH A PRICE.

A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS

The Fae aren’t to be trusted. Stephanie has been warned.

THE SUMMER DOOR

Book 1 of the Chaos Roads companion series, Magic in My Bones

Coming this October!

Stephanie Packham moved to Llithfaen after she inherited her great-aunt’s gloomy gothic house.

She’s gotten used to the oddness of the small town, more or less, and the strange college where she’s taken on the job of assisting Romy Ussher in the new Archiving curriculum.

But why did her great-aunt keep the house so dark and dingy? Why is there a box locked by a spell up in the attic? Why are ghosts warning her of impending evil?

She’ll soon find out.

“Into the Forbidden Fire was exceptional. Every time you thought you knew where things were going, there would be another twist in the road. As I read the book, I had trouble putting it down. The only disappointment at the end was knowing I had to wait for book 3 to be finished.”

    Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. — H. G. Wells (1898), The War of…

    My hubby and I are not the target market for haunted attractions, if I’m being honest. We don’t get startled by jump scares. The first time we visited the Hudson River Valley in NY state, the home of Washington Irving’s famously haunted stories, and attended the best attraction we’ve ever…
