Genre: Paranormal Urban Fantasy
What
if the world changed overnight…and it was all because of you?
All
Pennrae wanted to do was to help. Now she’s found herself in a
world that’s been instantaneously transformed by magic…that she
brought back. She’s gone from a simple karate instructor to an
instant celebrity—and she hates it. Fortunately, she has her
friends, her beloved magic companion, and one ridiculously hot
boyfriend.
But a sudden, unprompted attack in broad daylight
is about to make Penn’s life even more complicated. An ancient
forest guardian known as a Kiabi—a warrior of magic and almost
impossible to defeat—has marked Penn to die. The attack at first
seems incidental and unprovoked…until she discovers the true
cause. Her.
Penn may have saved the world, but her actions have set a chain of
events in motion. In one brief moment, something dark, terrible, and
older than time itself found an opportunity to escape, to free itself
from the guardians and mark Pennrae as its enemy. Now the world and
everyone she loves face a gruesome fate unless Penn can unleash the
full force of her Divine magic...

Warrior of the Divine Sword Book 1
Falling
asleep for almost 300 years was never part of Pennrae's plan.
Of
course, when you're a mercenary with magical abilities and defy a
spellbinding prophecy...bad stuff happens.
Now,
magic is long gone from the world. So Penn works as a karate
instructor, trying very hard to dodge her hot, flirty, and super
annoying colleague, Callan. All is well until a Jigori - a
nightmarish magic-eating monster - shows up at a New York City street
fair, forcing Penn to use her Shaper magic, which allows her to
transform wood and metal into deadly weapons.
Now,
the Jigori's master has her scent, and their eye on stealing her 300
years of life. If they succeed, Penn succumbs to centuries of sleep
again, and magic will be unleashed on a completely unprepared
world.
And
to add to her ridiculously complicated life, something isn't quite
right with Callan. Which she could figure out if it weren't for that
evil, apocalyptic plot she's trying to stop. But Penn may not have a
choice - Callan could be the secret weapon she needs to save the
world...
