The Descended Series

A paranormal romance saga set in the 1990s, across Sydney's sparkling shores and the sacred red deserts of Arizona, where endless skies stretch above ancient stone sentinels and the boundary between worlds begins to blur. 

Past lives, impossible love, and a supernatural mythology built across lifetimes. The Descended series follows Indigo Wolfe and Cordelia Carlisle as they navigate a bond older than time, and the forces determined to break it.

Descended

Everyone loves Indigo Wolfe. But all he wants is for someone to truly see him. 

Radiant and reckless, Indigo moves through high school like a legend come to life. But beneath the popularity he wears like armor, he's unravelling. Haunted by feelings that aren't his, voices no one else hears, and visions he can't explain, he's consumed by a magic he doesn't understand and can't control.

Then he meets her — a girl who truly sees him. A girl he somehow remembers. Because he's loved her before. In other lives.

But fate is never kind for long. When they're torn apart, Indigo is thrust into a hidden world of secret magic and ancient echoes. A world where his pain has meaning, his powers have a name, and love is the thread connecting lifetimes. There's a reason he keeps finding, and losing, the same girl, life after life.

As Indigo uncovers the truth about who he is and what he's capable of, he's faced with a choice: surrender to the life written for him, or fight to rewrite it.

Set in the 1990s across the beaches of Sydney and the deserts of Arizona, Descended is the spellbinding first book in a sweeping four-part saga about soul-deep love, found family, and the timeless struggle to change a destiny written in the stars.

Ascended

Everyone believes Indigo is gone. Everyone except Cordelia.

Alone and grieving, she refuses to let go of her soulmate. Because forever doesn’t exist without him. If there’s even the smallest chance he’s alive, she’ll find it, no matter the cost. To bring him back, she must delve into her past, unearth buried family secrets, and trace the hidden roots of her lineage.

Her search will carry her across time and continents, from the steamy streets of Bali to the red deserts of Sedona, from the vibrant, dangerous magick of 1920s New Orleans to the sun-drenched beaches of Sydney in the late 1990s.

But Indigo is more than a lost love. He is the missing heir to the Wiccan throne.

With the crown unclaimed and its rightful successor presumed dead, the balance of power begins to fracture. Warlocks are closing in, alliances are shifting, and Reinenoir’s long-held dream of becoming Witch Queen is closer than ever.

As destinies collide, enemies will become allies, friends will become lovers, and lovers will become enemies.

Spanning time, space, and bloodlines, Ascended is a spellbinding finale of power, sacrifice, and the lengths we’ll go to for true love.

When the fate of the world hangs in the balance… who will take the throne?
