For the Coma Kids, life on planet Kern is never dull. If they’re not busy fighting off the Yarm – the plant-eating space creature that threatens to leave their planet barren – they’re trying to escape aliens who want to make them slaves. But in many ways, Kern is better than Earth, where nobody ever understood their abilities of telekinesis and telepathy.
When Anne, one of the coma kids, disappears, her friends fear the worst. They didn’t realize she had walked through the Sphere, returning her to Earth, putting her in grave danger. Not bearing to leave Anne alone, the teens walk through the Sphere and travel back to Earth to find her. Back on Earth, the teens’ superhuman abilities create major problems—hearing everyone’s thoughts and dreams makes it almost impossible to eat or sleep. And as their skills advance, the more difficult it becomes to relate to others. Take Alex, for example. As the youngest Harvard Law student, the seventeen-year-old struggles to fit in, and his drinking spirals out of control. Even though the teenagers do some brilliant things like creating a “sensor blanket” that instantly reveals a person’s medical statistics, they grapple with challenges of living on Earth, from pregnancy complications and romantic breakups, to tragic accidents and terminal diseases. <br> Unfortunately, the evil forces that caused the group to escape Earth in the first place still surround them, threatening their lives. As the teens are put to the test, they must grapple with success and failure, friendship and love, new life and loss . . . and death. Will they ever adjust to life on Earth? And if they stay, will they continue to use their abilities for good – or will they succumb to evil? Find out what happens next in Book Three of the Coma Kids science fiction series Through the Sphere. |

Little does Marcus realize that his world is about to be turned upside down. In less than one day, Marcus learns not only the shocking truth about his mother, but also the real reason Cathy forged such a strong bond with him.

Time ticks away as the family attempts to solve the mystery of Lillian’s murder, all while trying to make sense of their past. Through it all, the Blackbournes and Marcus can’t help but wonder if the murderer is still lurking among them.

Like most people, Alida has contemplated one of life’s biggest mysteries: What happens to your soul when you die? What if it is stolen by a cruel demon, and your eternity’s resting place becomes an empty locker in a secret cavern? What if the Biblical hell was a real place, where real people suffered unspeakably? It is real, and it’s a horrifying place, where the souls of good people are imprisoned with no hope for escape or rescue ... until Alida appears.
Putting her life in jeopardy, Alida battles a wicked demon and even the devil to win the right to free the souls and return them to their own graves, where they can rest in peace. The Devil, Angels, and Demons is a story of love and hate, friends and enemies, religion and history, and the eternal battle between good and evil. It tells the story of a lost woman who changes her life when she saves the souls of good people being imprisoned by the demon for his own narcissistic pleasure. What she experiences in the process will change her life forever. |

Coming soon...
Three of my novels have been going through some big changes! Sister Innocent is now available! Two additional novels are soon to be re-released after going through a new edit and with an updated cover as well. Thanks to all the feedback from readers that inspired these new and updated versions!
British lawyer Marcus Tate wasn’t expecting to find himself in the middle of a murder mystery when he agreed to hand deliver a strange package to an unknown client in Toronto, Canada. Nor was he expecting to get sucked into the vortex of a high-brow but dysfunctional family obsessed with artwork and money. Along the way, Marcus has to reckon with some secrets of his own and the thrilling possibility of finding love amidst a family breakdown, a murdered matriarch and the contents of that strange package. A snappy read for fans of traditional "who-done-it?" mysteries set against a delightful backdrop of old money, a beautiful mansion and a decidedly eccentric family.
