Stand Alone Stories:
Vivary Tales
The Vivarium is what the people call the local guardhouse. The foot soldiers who comb the streets, searching for clues and arresting culprits are known as The Dogs and their leader called The Wolf. The spies hunting the dark alleys, digging out secrets and looking for bad guys are the secretive Cats, of whom not much is known.
The silent black panther, the elusive lynx, the friendly jackal, and the powerful wolf are a few who work at the low-city Vivarium, solving crime and helping the people, and perhaps even saving themselves in the process.

Baron of the Shifting Sands
When Alexi's sister is killed, he knows he has to step up and take her place, even though it means joining the violent and often deadly world of the coliseum.

Except, the price for saving his home might be losing Rehan. The impossible choice of saving one love only to lose another isn't one Alexi is prepared to make, but if he waits too long the shifting sands might make it for him, leaving only death and destruction for him to embrace.

Princes of Toval Series:
The Spy
After spending two years away at culinary school, learning the arts of baking and magic, all Karl wants to do after graduation is return home to the kitchen where he grew up.
