In a kingdom ruled by a Pharaoh who wants every advantage for his people, he takes her. When the mission takes a bloody unplanned turn, the broken little girl who walks down his throne aisle changes his path forever.

Alongside the fatherly, protective love of the god Ona, Shanah learns her secret is not only dangerous if discovered by the people around her but by the very gods themselves who are desperate to be heard. For who knows who the gods truly are if they cannot be heard?

When the dark god arrives his reputation precedes him. With a bond that gives Shanah extra senses to communicate, she sees beyond his reputation to what’s hidden beneath.

As Shanah grows her bond expands, bringing an ancient power she can no longer hide and a haunting, hollowness within that lifts it’s head to reclaim her once again.

Set in an ancient desert kingdom, the unseen is seen, forgiveness turns regret into enduring love, loss unites hearts and builds new families, betrayal and oaths are found in unexpected places, and the wolves circle as a beacon rises holding out a hand to those on the path of hatred.

Crowns are not always as great as they appear. A blessing so they say…

The series of Shanah is a five-book series. Books two through four to be published during 2026. The conclusion of the series in book five is to come.
