Meet the Cast
The Book of Phoenix contains a full cast of characters, each
with their own backstory and issues, and you’re bound to fall in love with at
least one. Each book follows the journey of Jeric and Leni as they discover
their connection with each other and what they must do for the world, but each
book also tells the story of how other Twin Flames come together. Twin Flames? You ask. Twin Flames are
the two halves of a soul that’s been ripped apart, in this case by an evil
ruler of the Dark worlds, Enyxa. In The Book of Phoenix trilogy, these halves
must find each other and reunite so they can protect all of Earth’s beings from
Enyxa and her Dark souls.
Leni – Half Italian and half French/African American (her
mama’s from NOLA), she has light brown, curly hair, green eyes, and that
beautiful complexion of mixed races. While her mother pushed her to be an
international ballerina, she doesn’t have the body for it. She prefers hip-hop
dancing, and she’s good at it. She has a particularly rare talent, but I’ll let
you read the book to find out what it is. Her mother’s relentless push on her
has created a number of issues that she deals with. Finding out that the world
is not all it seems only adds more to her plate. She handles it fairly well,
though – better than I ever could. Just imagine all proof that you exist
disappearing! At least she has Jeric…
Jeric – Tall, blond, blue-eyed, tattooed, and pierced – and
with his body, you can’t help but want to play with those piercings! An ex-cage
fighter and ex-underwear model. And did I mention he’s deaf? He’s a player when
we first meet him – okay, a man-whore – but only because he’s been searching
for something he didn’t realize he’d been searching for. Leni. He’s vulgar with
a horrible potty mouth, a bit terse, but also loving and kind. He’s been a
loner for so long that he has a hard time accepting and adjusting to this new
world he’s been thrown into. But Leni keeps him grounded, and you can feel his
love for her coming off the pages (or ereader screen).
Jacey and Micah – You meet this couple through the pages of
a journal found by Leni and Jeric. Their story took place in 1989 and includes
a bunch of fun stuff from the ‘80s. Jacey was a punk-rocker chick and a mess,
and Micah was an ex-Marine and also a mess. They seem like opposites, but they
were made for each other.
Bex – Aw, Bex. She’s one of my most favorite characters I’ve
ever written. I want to drink with her, laugh with her, and hug her all at
once. With red hair, tattoos, and piercings, her favorite outfit is a
halter-top, cut-off jean short-shorts, and cowboy boots. A Southern girl with
all the charm and sass. She’s had one helluva a life with a drug-abusin’ mama
who abandoned her and her sister, and it only gets crazier in The Space Beyond. She does meet her Twin
Flame, but I’m not going to say who it is here because that’s what the book is
all about! Both Books 2 and 3 are complete with some laugh-out-loud Bexisms.
Asia and Brock – You first meet this couple at the end of The Space Between and get to know them a
little in The Space Beyond, but The Space Within is where you finally
learn their story – and what it has to do with all of them and the rest of the
world. Asia is the “skinny rich bitch” we loved to hate in high school, but
while at college her life takes an unexpected turn that changes her and
eventually leads to her meeting Brock. He’s the exact type that caused all of
her problems, at least on the surface. But Brock is nothing like she expects.
Sweet, kind, snarky, and can we say sexy??? He didn’t intend for his big secret
to be a secret, but when Asia figures it out, she has to reevaluate everything.
Again. And then things just get weird for them. But it’s all good in the
end…maybe. You’ll have to read to find out. J
There are some other major characters you’ll meet, including
the Lakari (aka Enyxa’s Dark souls), Enyxa herself, Mason (an attractive doctor
who grabs Bex’s heart), and Ty (Bex’s childhood best friend and high school
sweetheart who swears they’re made for each other). And some ancillary
characters, too, who make up an interesting extended family for all of them.
They’ve all made this trilogy such fun to write and I hope to read, too.
This is the best time to get to know them. Why? Because The Space Between is FREE and is also
part of the Curses, Fates & Soul

THE SPACE BETWEEN
When Life Falls to
Pieces, Answers Lie in the Space Between
After a month-long dance tour overseas, Leni returns to Georgia to care for her great-uncle, only to find him gone, their home empty, and any evidence he ever existed wiped out. All that remains is her truck and a leather-bound book she can't open. Nearly as disturbing, she keeps running into the deaf and dangerously sexy model she'd met in Italy, and no matter how hard she tries to shake him, her soul won't let her.
Jeric has traveled the world in search of a piece of his past for over a year, only to reach a dead-end in Georgia ... in the exact town where the beautiful dancer from Italy lives. He's drawn to her like a moth to a flame, but his life as a loner in his silent world allows no room for girlfriends, and he tries to leave her. Except outside forces won't let him.
When the same "tattoos" suddenly appear on their arms and the book's lock falls open, Leni and Jeric realize there's more between them than physical fascination. They must embark on a journey together to discover their connection to each other and their ties to the Book of Phoenix.
And they must figure it all out fast. Shadowy forms that are more monsters than men are closing in, while their own existences are falling to pieces around them.
This first part of The Book of Phoenix takes you on a heart-wrenching ride as you discover the answers that lie in The Space Between.

THE SPACE BEYOND
Hearts break. Souls
shatter. Love lies in The Space Beyond.
As
members of the Phoenix, Jeric and Leni are thrust into their new lives,
expected to lead Earth’s Guardians. But Leni struggles with trusting her own
soul, and Jeric is more concerned about keeping Leni safe than meeting others’
demands. When Darkness swarms Lake Haven, they embark on their first mission
with little preparation and no idea which soul the Dark hunts.
Born and raised in Lake Haven, Bex hopes to escape her small-town life, ideally in the arms of her soul mate. She knows he exists, and her heart aches with the need to find him. When her long-lost mama calls to announce she's knockin' on death's door, Bex reluctantly makes the trip to see the uncaring bitch (bless her heart), only to be knocked off her feet by the sexy and charming Dr. Mason Hayes. Is he really The One?
Leni’s soul felt an instant connection to Bex, but if Bex found her soul mate, she isn’t their mission. So who is, and why does Leni instinctively feel drawn to her? Can Leni even trust her intuition? And will Jeric step up and lead when the time comes or continue to hold them back?
If they don't learn to trust themselves and each other quickly, Darkness will claim them all…along with the rest of Earth’s souls.

The Space Within
When Darkness threatens, what matters most lies in The Space Within
Completing a mission that reunites Guardian Twin Flames turns devastating when the Book of Phoenix throws Leni and Brock into a Dark world, leaving Jeric and Asia behind. They count on their other halves to rescue them, but when that doesn’t happen, they must fight through the Darkness and find a Gate that will take them home.
Except all of Earth’s Gates are sealed.
Enyxa, ruler of Darkness, and her horde of Dark souls storm the Gates to push their way through to Earth. While Leni and Brock fight Enyxa on their side, Jeric and Asia must figure out how to save their Twin Flames without jeopardizing all of Earth’s souls. Through it all—and with a little help from Enyxa—Brock and Asia begin questioning their relationship and whether they’re truly meant to be together…or if they’re two Lost souls forced to become one.
If the Broken dyads don’t find each other fast, they’ll be lost to the Dark forever. But to reunite means choosing themselves over all of Earth’s souls. Can Jeric make that decision? And will Brock and Asia find the love they both desperately crave? Or are they all doomed to perpetual Darkness?
Discover how it all ends in The Space Within, the explosive conclusion to The Book of Phoenix trilogy.
