TIES OF VALOR is a futuristic, but retains some slightly
revised medieval charms. Such as castles in distant lands where knights
race to the rescue, no matter how modern a woman you are.
Awyn Shandar spots a plummeting ship headed for his home world and races to the
rescue. Little does he realize how fiesty a woman he’ll save or the war that will
ensue after Voyager Zara Dior wakes to discover she’s a prisoner awaiting trial.

Left to a foreign Queen’s mercy, Zara becomes a prime target in the marauding
Vahezhno’s plot to overthrow Aquilar’s government. As her protector, Awyn can’t
let that happen, for her or his people. Their warrior wills clash, but ultimately they
must band together for a common goal—to keep her alive.  

At the climax, Zara's heart is torn. Will duty be her homing beacon to Sartin? Is the
love her father foretold stronger than the ties of her valor? Or will she have to blend
both forces together like their one of a kind relationship to save Awyn's people?

Currently Under Consideration by an Agent

A far-reaching futuristic that involves a Terminator tale of man versus machine
starring an X-man-esque cast.

Go-to-girl Jacqui Valere decided to break her daily routine by testing a hunch about
her friend's model-of-the-month. Bradley Eadoin's hiatus had expired, so he nixed
her intrusive questions with a tour of his duty--saving innocents from extermination.
But his mistake in identity catapulted her into a war-torn city where she embodies
the Mayor's sought-after energy source. With her life next on the chopping block,
Jacqui must enlist with the super-savior and wax heroic to topple the maniac
dictator or die trying.  

Can she safeguard her heart, while witnessing her partner's unselfish atonements
for his sins?
