I might be a rookie Chicago firefighter, but I’m on top of the world. I’ve just earned my spot on Rescue Squad at legendary Engine 6, can get all the action I want both in and out of the bedroom, and am possessed of an enviable sneaker collection. Nothing can harsh my vibe except her—Cassandra Ferguson, my brother’s sister-in-law, or as I affectionately label her: the blister-in-law. Ever since I met her, she’s looked down her perky little nose at me, never mind that I’m a good foot taller.

I worked so hard to slay every demon and fight every battle to be by her side. Now, I stare at the one match that could destroy everything we've gained. Me. I thought I had the tools, the knowledge, to thrive... to survive, but I was wrong. When you can't hide it, fight it, or mask it, there's only one thing left to do. Run.

My heart is healed. That fear is gone. It has been replaced with faith. I have been called many things in my life. Actor. Director. Producer. Friend. Brother. Son. But of all these, husband is the one I’m most proud of. Alexandra has filled me with a love I thought I’d never have again. The ferocity with which I will protect it is the only thing I truly fear. I won’t let anything take that or her away.

I’ve been cemented in my past and afraid of my future. It nearly drove her away. She believed enough for both of us. Now, it’s my turn. This is not just her future or mine we’re fighting for. It’s ours. I want us to build a life that no man or woman can destroy. She tells me I’ll never leave you again. I’m going to hold her to it. My heart is still healing, but her kind and forgiving soul, her beautiful spirit, and her passion called me from the first moment. The fear is leaving. It’s being replaced with faith.

I have dreams that are waiting to burst out of me, but my present is suffocating my future. I want more for myself regardless of what some might think. I vow to find my center in a new city where I will be able to make any and every choice without guilt or fear. That is until I find myself terrified of something new, Julian Stone. My heart is still healing but I find myself completely drawn to a man who is dark, sexy, passionate, and terrified to live. I know how that feels. He appears to be living his dream, but can’t lay his past to rest. It bleeds into his every waking moment.

Pillage, plunder, mayhem, and wicked magical tattoos...sounds like the perfect life for pirate Captain Maggy Low. Her life is a dream of violent chaos if you don’t count the fact that magic causes her first mate’s brain to melt until he turns to a beast intent on eating his fellow crewmates.

Power corrupts absolutely. The Vanguards of Scion is a dark epic fantasy story about five characters who are given great powers by dark beings from another dimension. We follow the five as they move through the East Realm and soon discover their powers have unimaginably horrid costs. The stakes keep stacking against them as the world they once knew begins to change forever because of their own mistakes.
