The Blacksmith’s Boy

Bok Omat thought his place in the Kingdom of Imarina was settled. The 19-year-old served as his rural community’s healer and helped in his family’s blacksmith’s shop. It was an unremarkable life in Imarina’s peasant class, but as long as his parents, sister, and young nephew were safe, a fine one under the protection of the Inishari royal family.

But when an ancient spell threatens Bok’s family and the safety of the entire kingdom, he answers an unlikely summons from Princess Isabella to join her in protecting all they cherish. Despite their vastly different pasts, Bok and Isabella become close friends as they race to counter this deadly incantation and the mysterious mastermind behind it.

Bok learns secrets that force him to reconsider all he has ever known about the world and his place in it. But will this knowledge come at the price of his life, Imarina’s freedom, or even his burgeoning friendship with Isabella?

The Return of the Cerulean Blur

Susan Murphy used to love her life. As the Cerulean Blur, Susan battled supervillains, helped others, and soaked in the public adoration—all at 2,000 mph. 

But a tragic mistake ended Susan’s superhero career 17 years ago and she’s never recovered. Susan’s marriage ended, her graphic design career sputtered, and most painfully, she struggled to connect with her teenage son, Troy. Susan is forced to use her powers again—and this opens a dialogue with Troy. 

However, it also gets the attention of a deadly villain from her past. Can Susan overcome this seemingly unbeatable foe, repair her relationship with her son, and find happiness (and maybe even romance) after tragedy? 

For Susan Murphy to live, the Cerulean Blur must run again.

The Goth Girl Who Saved the World

In 1989, all 16-year-old Charlotte Sumner wants to do was get through the school day without being bullied, then get home to her room, where she would listen to her favorite music until bedtime. Bands such as The Cure, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Joy Division and The Smiths are Charlotte’s obsession, even if she’s the only kid at school who shares this passion.

Then, Ian Morris transfers into Charlotte’s school—and changes her life. She falls hard for the dark-haired young man in the Depeche Mode T-shirt, and the two become inseparable. FInally, Charlotte has a friend! But Ian has a secret—he and his family are members of a secret society of witches. 

While Ian and his family are sworn to protect their non-magical neighbors, Charlotte discovers other witches in town with much more sinister motives. If the Grindylow Coven completes its spell, their dark magic will control the world.

And the only thing standing between earth and catastrophe is a teenage girl in black lipstick and Doc Martens.
