Published June 2, 2026 on Amazon.
Available in paperback, Kindle, and Kindle Unlimited.
Some family you’re born with, but the best are often found along the way.
Adelfried, family man and leader of his village, studied magic to help people. Naturally, he’s rewarded with an army at his doorstep.
Betrayal rips him from his family and throws him into the strange world of suburban America, where his magic makes him a target.
Hunted by a ruthless police force and a deadly cult, he’s forced to crash on the Harper family’s couch, the one place he can remain hidden.
He’ll explain everything to the Harpers once he learns English. Until then, paying in silver will have to suffice.
As danger closes in, Adelfried must choose between protecting the family he’s found… or finding his way back to the one taken from him.
What to expect:
- A reverse portal, urban fantasy in a modern setting
- Fast paced action grounded with slice of life moments

Science, Magic, and Monsters
Coming October 13, 2026
Great pay. Magical animals. Questionable life expectancy.
Fresh out of high school and prospects, Dex stumbles onto the dream job he never knew he needed. When his lucky break breaks his mom’s car and nearly his legs, he scores the most bizarre interview he’s ever had. It’s one of those jobs where you don’t call them, they call you, and only if you have multiple degrees.
The good news is the job isn’t a pyramid scheme, and he gets to work with magical animals.
The bad news is that monsters are real and Animal Control is who deals with them.
It’s only an internship, and Dex has six months to survive the coursework. The mortality rate is worse than Russian roulette, and if he washes out, they wipe every memory of the job from his head. To top it off, his fellow intern, Bree, is brilliant, beautiful, and hates his guts for lucking into the opportunity she worked so hard to earn.
And apparently, the job is cursed. But curses aren’t real, right?
But who cares about all that, the internship is paid!
College might prepare you for animal science. It does considerably less for giant snakes, manticores, almost-dragons, life-threatening equipment failures, or a fellow intern who becomes considerably harder to dislike and considerably easier to fall for.
As the accidents pile up and the close calls get closer, Dex starts to wonder whether surviving Animal Control will take more than luck.
This will be a story set in the same world as Science, Magic, and Mayhem but featuring all new characters and focused on the monsters created by magic. It will be a New Adult Romance, Urban Fantasy, but still have all the action, excitement, and mayhem of you would expect to find in this world.
