Another week is upon us and spring is slowly heading toward summer. I enjoy spring and fall because it’s not too hot, and most of the time it’s not too cold, and it feels like you can get a lot more done during those months than you do during the heat of summer and the freezing cold of winter!

What are you looking forward to this spring and summer?

I have 5 amazing books launching this week and the first of those releases is here! That’s a great way to start the week, right?

• Tinker’s Race
• The Dragon
• Merchant’s Gambit
• The Untraditional Outlaw
• Soul Wars, Damned Edition – Not on preorder

Title: Tinker’s Race
Series: Tinker’s Saga Book 2
Release Date: 04/07/2025

What if the fate of a kingdom rested in the hands of a boy who never wanted to be king?

In a world where mechanical marvels clash with tyrannical power, young Marty carries a secret that could topple an empire. The Ferrus Dominion’s iron grip tightens across the land while ancient clockwork soldiers lie dormant beneath forgotten fortresses.

Joined by the resourceful mechanic Jax and sharp-shooting Nora, Marty must navigate a dangerous path to claim his birthright. Their journey takes them through toxic wastelands, baroque flying fortresses, and treacherous alliances.

Time runs short as Dominion agents close in.

Lieutenant Isecharr, torn between duty and conscience, must decide where his true loyalties lie. Meanwhile, the ruthless Over-Secretary Thrush orchestrates a deadly hunt for the young heir from her tower of power.

Deep within Eldoria’s ancient halls, mechanical armies stir to life. The fate of nations hangs in the balance as Marty discovers the true weight of his destiny – a destiny written in gears and sealed in blood.

Tinker’s Race launches readers into an exhilarating steampunk adventure where loyalty, betrayal, and ancient technology collide in a fight for freedom.

Title: The Dragon
Series: Lost and Forsaken Book 3
Release Date: 04/08/2025

Who wins in a deadly game of trust?

Cian’s entire life has seemingly been a lie, since his true nature was hidden away at birth to conceal a secret that makes him invaluable to all the wrong people. Now he’s been captured by the Imperium for breaking their magical laws, allowing his enemies to close in.

His only chance at freedom lies in the hands of his friends, who are a force to be reckoned with all on their own.

Allying himself with the necromancer who crippled his friend, he seeks out the middleman who contracted them in order to discover their employer in the hopes that it will keep the Imperium off his back.

If that weren’t enough, he has to attend his arranged marriage to Eilidh, the fae woman who might be his salvation…or his downfall. When the Sisters crash the reception, his plans unravel faster than a fraying tapestry.

The group has his mother. They want his blood. They are determined to use both to free a goddess whose prison has held for centuries.

With time running out, and loved ones in danger, does Cian need to make the impossible choice of saving his new wife or protecting the mother he now knows never willingly abandoned him?

Sometimes the most dangerous power isn’t found in spells or chains—it’s found in the heart.

Will Cian’s true nature be enough to outsmart the Sisters and their ancient goddess, saving everyone he loves? Or will a desperate gamble unleash a force that will destroy everything he’s fought to protect?

Princess Julie has mastered the art of hiding in plain sight. Under the guise of a simple merchant, she traverses the MerChain trade routes, building alliances and avoiding her royal responsibilities. Freedom tastes sweeter than any crown.

Until she meets Alex.

A gifted runesmith with storm-gray eyes and unshakeable principles, Alex Kraft awakens something in Julie she never expected: the desire to be seen for who she truly is.

Revealing her identity could destroy everything she’s built.

When the powerful Redwood trading company threatens to crush independent merchants like Alex, Julie must choose: maintain her deception to protect him from afar, or risk losing him forever by revealing her true identity.

As political tensions rise and hearts become entangled, Julie discovers that some illusions cut deeper than others.

With Redwood’s influence growing and her father’s patience waning, Julie must find a way to save both her newfound love and her freedom. In a world where truth is the highest currency, her web of deception may cost her everything.
