In my new YA Fantasy, HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD, Rosaleen has been trained by her mother (the goddess of death and battle) in all sorts of weaponry from a very young age. Of all her skills, she's proudest of her ability to wield an ancient handstone-a skill that she uses at a critical moment. #booksky
Many thanks to Reader Views for their Five Star review of HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD. It was a pleasure sharing Rosaleen's epic adventure with you. Read the full review on their blog: buff.ly/5w47yDl #booksky
In HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD, Rosaleen is lucky enough to have Aengus, the Irish god of love as her godfather. He sees the warmth and humanity inside her no matter how hard she tries to stamp it out. #booksky #newrelease
Meet Brin - he's the ghost of an Irish bard (known as the Fili) and he escorts Rosaleen on her epic quest to the Otherworld, the realm of the Irish gods. He's full of humor and heart, and one of my all-time favorite book boyfriends. HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD is out now! #booksky #yafantasy #newrelease
Eyes on the prize, Rosaleen. Once you battle monsters and gods (with your snarky Irish ghost sidekick) and fulfill your destiny, you can forget you’re the half-human daughter of the goddess of death and finally get a life. And maybe a solid Instagram following. #booksky #newrelease #yafantasy
It's Pub Day for HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD! When the snarky ghost of an Irish bard insists on haunting Rosaleen, it's the LAST thing she needs. After all, she's got a kingdom to liberate and a mother - who happens to be the goddess of death - to please. #booksky #yafantasy www.amazon.com/dp/B0GXGN59PZ
One day to HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD. This story is an epic adventure, and like many epic adventures, it ends in a terrifying and glorious battle, with the fate of humanity at stake. Is Rosaleen up for the challenge? You'll find out tomorrow! Pre-Order: www.amazon.com/dp/B0GXGN59PZ #booksky
Monster cookie and maple chocolate bourbon fudge for breakfast? Don’t mind if I do. I love the vendor hall at a con (even if my waistline doesn’t).
When your TV heroes sign the book you wrote them into 🤗 Thank you so much Rachel Luttrell and David Hewlett (aka Teyla and Rodney from Stargate Atlantis)! #dialthegate
One week to HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD! Who's ready for an epic adventure to the realm of the Irish gods? #booksky #comingsoon #ya Pre-order: www.amazon.com/dp/B0GXGN59PZ
It's National Kissing Day, so this is your yearly reminder that despite its somber cover, BLUE has the most hilarious first kiss in the history of YA fiction. #booksky
I've made it halfway through the alphabet on my 2026 A To Z Reading Challenge, and I've had a lot of great reads. So far, these three are the front-runners. #booksky
One week to Shore Leave 46 and I am seriously yippee-skipping with excitement! Will I see you there?
Welcome to my holiday weekend! I'm spending the time off cleaning, tossing, donating, and shoving stuff into storage. God willing, there's a move on the horizon.
HEIR OF THE OTHERWORLD is two weeks away - can you believe it? I've been waiting so long to share Rosaleen's story with the world, and I am so excited for you all to read it. #booksky #yafantasy
There's way too much hate in the world, and love is love is love is love.
My cat flipped his stuffed squirrel and it landed straight up. Talk about talent! #caturday
