Upcoming Work

PUNCH DRUNK MAGIC
Magic is messy, and Mel Goodman doesn’t want any part of it. She left the witches who raised her behind as soon as she could, choosing a rational, predictable life in psychology research. But her perfect life and not-so-perfect marriage falls apart and a killer lurks in the ink and blood of her scrying bowl, targeting the witches in her community back home. The man who can help her save them is Devin Westfield, the high school crush she left behind a decade ago. As the killer’s attention turns to Mel, she must learn to trust the man, the magic, and herself. An urban romantasy set in a contemporary Michigan small town with a plus size, polyamorous MC. Planned series rooted in real-life NeoPagan communities exploring found family, generational curses (not just metaphorical ones), and the nature of magic.
