The Vitruvian Heir Trilogy
BOOK I: THE UNRAVELING
You can take this empire back.
​
Welcome to Vitruvia. In a nightmarish future, one girl holds the key – to rebellion.
Society has regressed to Victorian standards and patriarchal dominion. Women have slowly lost their rights. And Lorelei Fetherston, an aristocrat with a forbidden talent for writing, inherits a powerful legacy that can set her free. Though running from her wedding to gentle Gideon, a childhood confidante, is a risk that may not be worth taking.
But this isn’t her only dilemma. Her heart has always been with Fallon, the brooding ward of the current emperor and heir to the Vitruvian throne, and she’s finding it harder to resist his melancholy charms.
Will she escape to carve out a new life or accept her role as a dutiful wife? When her free-spirited friend, Sawyer, comes to her one night in grave danger, Lore is forced to make a fateful choice. In the bordering nation of Hopespoke, women are free. And, according to legend, an enigmatic woman runs a squadron of lethal debutantes and is always on the lookout for new recruits.
From mysterious woodland strangers and underground clubs to spectacular fêtes and a clandestine rebellion, discover what happens when their worlds collide.

BOOK II: THE AWAKENING
If you find yourself attracted to a villain, it doesn’t mean that you are one.
With the fate of Vitruvia resting in her hands, young Lore has decisions to make. And one of her first is to strike up a deal with none other than Ursula, her former mentor and current prisoner.
Now that the country has once again made contact beyond its borders, the fledgling empress finds herself invited to an annual summit in Orsia where she’ll take her place among the world’s most powerful leaders. But what awaits her there is far more dangerous than anything even Ursula can prepare her for - or Avery can protect her from.
Meanwhile, back in Vitruvia, Sawyer and the formidable vigilante, Lucy Shaw, try to keep a more sinister force at bay.
From faraway mystical palaces and a mysteriously alluring foe to a traitorous uprising and fierce new allies, see what happens when a young woman steps into the role she's both doomed and destined to play.

BOOK III: THE RECKONING
Every game has to end sometime.
Sixteen years have passed since Lore Fetherston took the helm as empress of Vitruvia, and an era of peace has ushered itself in. But how long will it last?
A new generation has come into their own, led by her fiery daughter, Lena, who dreams of toppling the Orsian regime once and for all. But Lena has her own weakness; namely, a foreign prince she’s not even supposed to know – the son of her sworn enemy.
When an unforeseen abduction tears apart their fragile existence, Lore’s world once again transforms into a battleground as she’s forced to protect what she loves even more than her country: her child.
In the meantime, Constance and Lucy make a discovery in Ruby Novum, Vitruvia’s western settlement, that may be just what Lore needs to save Lena – and the world – from certain domination. Little does she know that her loyal inner circle and a mysterious group of fearsome strangers are boldly planning their own rescue mission.
From the depths of subterranean societies and the breathtaking heights of an icy summit to unexpected allies and earth-shattering revelations, experience the epic conclusion that brings this trilogy – and Lore’s story – to an unforgettable close.

The Clothes That Make You
​
It's 1967, the world is changing - and so is a quiet misfit named Sally Fiore.
After the sudden death of her father, Sally turns to comfort in the small things – her beloved books, her new interest in sewing, and her slight infatuation with the handsome, young custodian at school who always has a novel in his back pocket.
But her sheltered life is turned upside down in January of ’68 when she makes an unlikely friend in the new girl at school – a feisty civil rights activist named Sam, who dresses like a boy, prefers to date girls, and is defiantly unapologetic about her differences.
As Sally grieves and tries to heal from her loss, she copes with her stoic mother who's struggling to keep their house, a tenacious would-be boyfriend, mean girls at school, and an older brother dead set on enlisting in the army after graduation. With Sam's rebellious influence, Sally blooms against the tumultuous backdrop of a small town trying to cling to its idyllic ways in the face of violence, war, and social unrest, and ends up discovering that tragedy can sometimes knit the spirit's fabric together even stronger than it was before.
