I have three projects 'on the go' at the moment. My epic fantasy romance, RULED BY SHADOWS has now been written and is now being edited, and I'm hard at work on WIND SONG, Book 2 of the Kingdom of Northumbria series. I've also just started BARBARIAN SLAVE, Book 2 of The Warrior Brothers of Skye series. Read more about all these projects below. Ruled by Shadows  Lilia is afraid of the shadows, so when her own one starts behaving strangely, she can barely cope—especially when it starts threatening her. It all starts the day she meets Saul of Anthor. Handsome and darkly mysterious, he leaves a charm-stone in her safekeeping. Only, what appears to be a humble Hag Stone—used by folk to ward off evil spirits—is in reality a powerful talisman. One that a secret brotherhood has spent a thousand years searching for. The shadows are deepening and an ancient evil risks being unleashed upon the world. Lilia embarks on a journey into danger, discovery and ... love. But she must face the darkness, and her own fears—or there will be no going home. MANUSCRIPT COMPLETE: EDITING IN PROCESS!
