The Forgotten Flame series
When the divine falls, the streets remember.
In the shadows of New York, fallen angel Michael Ryder and NYPD detective Gabi Brant, a woman with no past, are pulled into an ancient war between heaven and hell, where redemption has a price and no one escapes the balance.
A Monster for Every Month
Twelve months. Twelve monsters. A whole year of adventures.
From snowy mountains and sunny beaches to ancient pyramids, colorful forests, and dancing northern lights, every month brings a new monster, a new place, and a new reason to wonder.
Filled with gentle humor, whimsical watercolor illustrations, and stories made for
sharing, "A Monster for Every Month" is a cozy journey through the year
for curious little readers and the grown ups who love reading with them.
