ROLLING IN CLOVER
Jenny Clover comes from an exceptionally lengthy line of magical folk who emigrated to America during the Irish famine years. Eventually, her ancestors settled in a rural Texas community where they live today.
It has always been easy hiding her and her family’s mystic powers since using them would cause attention they don’t need. Especially when their biggest problem is watering livestock and no amount of magic Jenny, and her aunts and uncles possess can undo a drought.
When she mysteriously wins a contest for a soap company in Fermanagh County, Ireland, and the money that comes with it saves the family farm, Jenny is understandably overjoyed. She also wins an all-expense trip to Ireland, and she can’t wait to get to the homeland of her forebears.
Where one problem ended, however, an even bigger one presents itself in the form of The Honorable Declan Tyrnan Shea, lately bestowed with his father’s title as The Baron of Clanshea.
Where Jenny and Declan are concerned, mysterious and amazing magical forces are about to upend their lives. Neither of their families will ever be the same when the real adventure begins.

A Valentine’s Day short story…
Valentine’s Day for one cynical, mythic creature will never be the same.
Caleb Sumner is a Demonid.
He has seen men and women through the ages cheat on each other to the point that gushy holidays like Valentine’s Day make him sick.

This particular year, however, Caleb is one Grove Nymph away from having his heart and mind completely altered!

Is living through eternity worth it? What purpose does life hold if you cannot be with the people who mean the most?
In the Irish countryside, vampires live and lurk. Ghouls are their prey, and no human knows whether vampires or ghouls even exist. It’s an eternal life where a newly changed predator might find redemption or horror. Inspiration or madness. The last thing one changeling expects is suspense, mystery, friendship, hope and even love.
For eons, the undead have lived among us. In the countryside of Ireland, it is easy to hide. For one lonely woman, her hidden existence in the night could be a curse. She is strong but different even from the other vampires around her and that difference may initiate the biggest journey of her undead life.
