Under Saint Owain's Rock

An 800-year old secret threatens the peace of a tiny village in Wales. Not only does it put at odds two lonely people who seem made for each other, but it draws the attention of the entire world to a scandal that's just too delicious to ignore.

This lighthearted contemporary romance tells the story of a high-powered ad man who, in order to save his job, must devise a tourism campaign based on the patron saint of a tiny Welsh village. In the process, he falls in love with the only woman who can prove the saint was a fraud.

The supporting cast of eccentric characters provides a non-stop feast of fantasy, fun and foolishness as competing interests drive everyone to extremes. This charming mixture of ancient history, small town values and big city schemes will keep you both intrigued and smiling from beginning to end.

Druids (book one of a trilogy)

The Celts ruled Europe for 500 years. They believed that acts of nature were omens of the gods, that nobility must be earned, and that honor ranked higher than life. The most revered were the Druids: bards, healers, judges, and seers.

Rhonwen, a passionate young healer, must forge a path through a land ravaged by war with Rome. Haunted by an oath of vengeance, she struggles against betrayal and gambles her life on an arcane magic from distant Gaul.

Mallec flees his warrior roots to become a scholar, but his training fails him when he inherits an ancient rite for immortality. Once mastered, he must protect the knowledge from those who thirst for its power and seek his destruction.

Celt against Roman -- two great civilizations larger than the continent they share. One must yield forever.

Captives (book two in the Druids trilogy)

Two druids must escape slavery and protect an ancient magic from one who would abuse it.

The spiritual heart of his clan, druid Mallec is trusted and adored by all. Confounded by visions of a dark haired woman, his attention shifts to a series of calamities overtaking his people. Mallec struggles to understand why they have lost the favor of their gods, unaware of the untimely resurrection of the evil driad Dierdre and her plans for his destruction.

Meanwhile, druid healer Rhonwen, the object of Mallec's vision, remains enslaved, passing from bad master to worse. Repeatedly punished for her resistant nature, but kept alive for her healing skills, Rhonwen perseveres, unaware of her intertwined fate with Mallec and the betrayal that will soon cast him into chains.
