The Dreamscapers
#1: Chasing Nightmares
Twenty-one-year-old Ash O’Shea has always been aware in her vivid dreams, and if she concentrates she can control them. She never thought much of it, not until she started ending up in other people’s dreams. Usually, their nightmares. She can’t stop herself from stumbling in and doesn’t care to find out what happens if she dies in one.
Then Ash meets others who call themselves dreamwalkers, including an annoyingly cryptic man who shows up in her own dreams with a warning. He tells her about a prison crafted to hold the most powerful dreamwalker to have ever lived… and that prison is weakening. Unfortunately, the location of the prison is a deeply buried secret, one that only a handful of people know.
In the race to stop the return of a vengeful murderer, Ash must learn to navigate the endless possibilities of the dreamscapes, where the only limits are those imposed by her own imagination.

#2: Shattered Daydreams
Coming soon!
Once, Griffin was the most powerful dreamwalker alive. Now he’s a struggling student with bad grads, a minimum wage job, and a tiny apartment. It’s not the life he dreamed of, but he’s trying to start over.
When Aaron Winkler is found murdered, everyone assumes Griffin is guilty—even himself. With no alibi, plenty of motive, and no memory of what happened that night, it’s hard to believe he didn’t finally snap and go after one of the people responsible for Sebastian’s death.
With the cops on his tail and the dreamwalking community out for blood, his only chance at proving his innocence is finding the real killer, but Griffin isn’t sure he even wants to know. The truth always is more frightening than a pretty lie. What if it turns out he’s guilty and he really is the irredeemable monster everyone thinks he is?
Soul Keepers
#1: The Sound of Nothing
Without a keeper, no soul is safe.
In the peaceful and secluded Konota Valley, every 16-year-old must embark on a sacred journey to find their animal soul keeper. The life-long bond protects their soul from malicious demons that would devour it, leaving behind an empty husk.
As the mostly ignored misfit, Shaya has always felt isolated within her own tribe, but she hopes finding her keeper will also help her find a purpose. Instead, her return with a bizarre and frightening beast only leaves her more confused. She soon learns her keeper is a drakon, a legendary creature from the northern mountains, but that knowledge does nothing to win her the acceptance she longs for.
When drakon riders invade the valley, Shaya’s people begin to question her loyalty. The invaders might offer what she’s always wanted, but she must decide whether finally belonging is worth betraying the few people who still believe in her.

Kota Ryn wants only one thing: to return home. As the Drak Clan’s new chief, she has decided to lead her people back to where the threat of an enemy with powerful magic still awaits.
But for Shaya Navi, something else waits in the North: answers. Since before her Crossing, she has felt the mountains calling, but she never understood why. Now she hopes that learning more about Tammae Lakki, her supposed past life, will bring her closer to understanding what she’s meant for in this one.
Makai Farin made a promise: to follow Shaya to the ends of the earth. He intends to keep it, but—stalked by a phantom cougar with unknown intentions—he finds himself keeping secrets as well.
Their destinies intertwined, the three brave the fury of the Northern mountains, working together to save the land from a tyrant and unravel the truth about their past lives.
