Ebony Gate is a fast-paced, female John Wick adventure with Dragon Magic, set in San Francisco's Chinatown!

Emiko Soong belongs to one of the eight premier magical families of the world. But Emiko never needed any magic. Because she is the Blade of the Soong Clan. Or was. Until she's drenched in blood in the middle of a market in China, surrounded by bodies and the scent of blood and human waste as a lethal perfume.

The Butcher of Beijing now lives a quiet life in San Francisco, importing antiques. But when a shinigami, a god of death itself, calls in a family blood debt, Emiko must recover the Ebony Gate that holds back the hungry ghosts of the Yomi underworld. Or forfeit her soul as the anchor.

What's a retired assassin to do but save the City by the Bay from an army of the dead?

Ebony Gate, book one of the Phoenix Hoard series, is available now in hardback, ebook and audio!


Want river demons, fox spirits, and
hungry ghosts along with your
vampires, fae, and shifters?

You've come to the right place!

Roxy's got two hammers, a bit of Breaker magic, and the deathbed promise she made to her father.

The Seattle Slayers, an elite cadre of fighters dedicated to protecting the city, is having their Trials for new initiates. My dad was a Slayer--one of the best. I thought his legacy might give me an edge in the Trials, but I was wrong. If anything, it made them harder on me.

But joining the Slayers is my best chance to save my mom. And, maybe, I need to see if I can fill my dad’s shoes.

The only things standing between me and my dreams are all the other elite fighters and magic users who want their spot on the Slayers too. I will battle them all--fae warriors, river demons, and a vicious animage who hates my guts.

I've got my hands full but a certain vampire princeling further complicates my life even as he saves it. He’s powerful, handsome, and deadly–a combination I find hard to resist.

If you enjoy slow-burn romance and rooting for the underdog, cross over to Twilight Veil, where life is cheap and vampire blood spends the best.

Dive into magic-drenched, post-apocalyptic Seattle today!
