I am a Canadian fantasy author living in Kelowna, B.C. For years I worked as a writer and editor for film, radio, and television, while raising my family. An avid reader since childhood, I have always gravitated toward speculative fiction. I published my epic fantasy trilogy "The Magic of Miraven," from 2020-2022, garnering praise from fellow award-winning fantasy authors and stellar reviews from readers. After experiencing the ordeal of a wildfire evacuation in the summer of 2023, I wrote and published my memoir "Finding the Phoenix," which became an instant #1 bestseller in its category on Amazon and remained there for three weeks. My books is widely available in bookstore and libraries throughout the province, and online through all the major online bookstores. My next project, a Canadian historical fiction novel, "Blood and Snow," is set for publication in early 2027. Looking for creative inspiration, I spend much of my time in the beautiful interior of B.C., hiking, paddling, communing with the deer and stellar blue jays, and gazing into the ever-changing waters of Lake Okanagan.

A war is coming…Can she be the key to Miraven’s salvation? Young mortal Tekoah wants a quiet life, but instead is hurtled into danger after attracting the attention of two lethal shapeshifting sorcerers. One is smitten with her and the other wants her dead.
