The True and the Crown
5 primary works Complete
Book 1
After my father almost destroyed my world, I was exiled from the land of mists and magic. I was just a child when soldiers of the Crown dragged me through a portal to your world, and I’ve been trying to get home ever since.
When I’m invited home to attend the academy of magic, I know there are strings attached.
Those strings may have something to do with three handsome, alluring men who befriend me.
I can’t trust them, but I can’t resist the pull I feel for them, either. It’s been a long time since I had friends.
My chance to stay home is tied to how useful I can make myself. My father’s henchmen, the True, want me to restore his wicked glory. The Crown’s spies wants to use me to destroy the True. I’ll have to pick a side, and fight, or I'll be exiled again. Or worse.
And in the midst of all this swirling intrigue, I’m failing both Calculus *and* Castng.
These men seem determined to tutor me, fix me and most of all, protect me.
But my deep, dark secret is that the dread magician’s daughter…doesn’t have her magic anymore.
When they realize how useless I am, will they still stand by my side?
Welcome to a world where redemption is possible, where friendship and adventure and magic abound, and where love means never having to choose.
One Kind of Wicked is the first in a university-age academy reverse harem series. It first appeared as Three Kinds of Wicked.
Book 2
The True want me to restore my father’s wicked legacy. The Crown wants me to destroy the True. But what do I want?
The academy of magic doesn’t have frat parties; it has balls with tuxedos and flowing champagne and chocolate fountains. Oh, and masked debauchery. Lots of that.
Unfortunately, instead of enjoying the debauchery with the three alluring magicians I’m falling for, I’m there to draw out the True henchmen. I’m nothing but bait in a ball gown.
To serve my country—and to stay in Avalon—I need to play the part of a villain. The True need to think I can be persuaded stand alongside them as they destroy Avalon.
At least these three men see me as I really am: a woman who just wants a second chance.
Unfortunately, they’re hiding secrets of their own…
And some of those secrets will be revealed, even before the masks come off.
I’ve begun to find a home, to find a new family, to find a second chance here at the academy. Will that all be gone by the time the music has stopped and the champagne’s been spilled?
Two Kinds of Damned is the second book in the reverse harem academy romance series, The True and the Crown. It was first published as "Three Kinds of Damned", and this is the updated version with an extended ending.
Book 3
The university of magic is no place for the dark lord’s daughter…and the Crown Prince’s birthday ball is no place for her either.
But the prince doesn't give the kind of invitation that a girl can reject. So, my men and I pack up our fancy clothes and off we go to the prince’s castle. We have a mission along the way. The secrets that have kept me safe until now are crumbling. I need my magic back, now.
Without my magic, without being useful to the Crown, I can look forward to a one-way ticket back to your world.
Or a one-way ticket to dead.
While my men and I hunt the man who stole my magic and destroyed part of my soul…
…he’s hunting me too.
By the time our battle is over, every truth will be revealed. Every lie will be destroyed.
Will Avalon ever be the same?
Will my heart?
Three Kinds of Lost is book three in the academy reverse harem romance series, The True and the Crown.
Book 4
The men I love were placed in my life by the Crown to spy on me and use me. When I can’t stand to look at their lying faces anymore, I escape to my childhood home.
It’s not much of an escape.
The place is haunted.
Haunted by the mother I’ve grieved. By the father I’ve hated. Banishing one of them to the Far will banish both… and when their ghosts move into the beyond, I’ll lose my chance to ever unravel what happened in this house.
Then the Fox, the masked vigilante who’s been saving nobles from a bloody death in the kingdom to the north, washes up on my shore in the wreckage of his ship. The world still sees me as a villain like my father, but he wants me to be their hero anyway.
That dangerous work will take me into the soirees of the princes of two kingdoms and make me Avalon’s most hated party girl.
And all the while, Mycroft, Cax and Airren will flit at the edges of my life, watching over me… longing for me…
In a broken kingdom, with the shattered trust between us all, how will Mycroft, Cax, Airren, the Fox and I find our way back together?
Because as the rips between the realms widen, we might be the only ones who can save the world…
And we might be the only ones who can save each other.
Four Kinds of Cursed is the second to last book in the five book reverse harem series, The True and the Crown. Escape today into a world where magic, romance and adventure abound.
Book 5
There are only two things magic can’t do: show the future and raise the dead.
Maybe there are only two things that matter.
I thought life couldn’t get darker than being exiled to your world.
Then I came home and fell in love, and now I know better. No matter how much I suffered, it was nothing like watching those I love suffer.
Cax, Airren and Mycroft are suspended between life and death, waiting for me to rescue them, if I can. The rips between worlds keep widening, allowing more Ravengers to slip through and stalk their human prey. And of course, the good people of Avalon think it’s all my fault. No rest for the dark lord’s daughter.
I’ll rip the kings from their thrones if that’s what it takes to save the men I love.
And I’ll give up my own life to seal the rips if I must.
But even as the walls close around us, I can imagine a happy ending…
No matter how dark things get, I’m going to fight for it.
Five Kinds of Cursed is the explosive final chapter in the True and the Crown series.
