The Edge of
Sea Glass

The storm brewing on the beach is no match for the turmoil inside Jenna’s breaking heart. The last time she and her father were on the shoreline together, Jenna decided she was too grown to look for imaginary mermaids in the waves. Now, regret and grief threaten to consume her as she wishes more than anything that there could be more time with her father—who is nearing the end of his battle with terminal cancer.

An encounter with a strange piece of sea glass leaves Jenna with an opportunity to have her greatest wish granted… But bargains in the depths prove jagged pieces of a broken heart aren’t the only things that are sharp.

Princesses, Spies, & Other Modern Lies

The country of Umbra is caught in a war between its magical history filled with spellcasters and the new modern revolution. At the core of this civil war is the missing princess, who is prophesied to end the war and put the spellcasters back in a position of power.

​

To figure out where the heir is, the spellcasters throw a ball and invite all twenty-year-old women to see if one of them is the princess.

​

Though she's forced to attend, Hazel Cartwright has no magical powers, so she can't possibly be the missing heir . . . Right?

​

Princesses, Spies, & Other Modern Lies is a short story full of political intrigue, a missing princess, magic versus modernity, banter, and spies.
