      Named Best New Western Author by True West Magazine. It takes more than a badge to keep the peace in a lawless hellhole like Ring Bit, Texas. It takes guts, grit, gunslinging—and one hell of a woman . . . MEET TENNESSEE SMITH: SHE SHOOTS FROM THE HIP. There aren’t many options for an eighteen-year-old girl in the Old West. Especially an orphan like Tennessee Smith. She can either sell her body in a seedy saloon or take her chances as a mail-order bride. Tennie chooses the latter. Joining a wagonload of women across Indian territory, she arrives in the God-forsaken town of Ring Bit, Texas. Her husband-to-be is surprisingly decent. But after tying the knot in a quickie ceremony, he pops even more surprises on her. First, he introduces Tennie to his three young sons. Then he drops dead on their wedding night . . . Some women would hightail it out of there. Not Tennie. She’ll do whatever it takes to save the ranch and raise those boys. Rusty is thirteen, Lucas is ten, and Badger is six. They need a mother. Tennie needs a job. And the town needs a marshal. Sure, the local gamblers, outlaws, and thieves have no use for the law. Then again, they never met a lawman, or woman, like Tennessee Smith . . .

      Children of The Earth
    • Sigils, seals and pentacles are occult devices used in ceremonial magic as part of the invocation and evocation of angels, demons and other spirits. They were developed out of ritual magic, a mixture of Greco-Egyptian Hermeticism, Arabic Astrology and Jewish Cabala in the 10th century Medieval Europe. These forms of magic practise were raised to the level of a science and studied as such during the Renaissance. Magicians recorded their designs in magical training books called grimoires, such as The Key of Solomon and many others, Four centuries later, modern interpretations of such designs continue to feature in post-modern grimoires such as the Necronomicon. This collection of occult designs is a fascinating insight into the inner world of the magician and the entities he may call on, for better or worst.

      Sigils, Seals and Pentacles
    • Ebony Rose desires the freedom to love without limits--but that's for people who aren't harboring the kind of skeletons that could threaten their very existence. Desperately running from her past and a broken heart, Ebony refuses to allow anyone to get close to her--until she crosses paths once more with Dafari, the knight in shining armor she lost long ago. The last thing King Dafari expects to find in New York is the girl who got away--although he had hoped. Marrying a woman outside of his culture is strictly forbidden, and the clock is ticking for him to choose a queen. However, Ebony Rose embodies all the qualities he seeks in a mate and a matriarch for his country, and Dafari is determined to make Ebony his, despite the laws and traditions that stand between them. Then he makes a grave discovery that causes his world to spiral and leave him questioning everyone he loves. Secrets buried under betrayal emerge, threatening to destroy the bond between Ebony and Dafari. Will they survive the sinister conspiracy surrounding them, or will royal misdeeds and scandal topple their chance at redemption and true happiness?
