Obedience
No one joins a cult on purpose.
Emma doesn’t remember how she got to the Guild. No one will tell her. The only thing her superiors ever say is “Be Obedient.”
Emma is done with Obedience. She wants a life: friends, a boyfriend, and a family who loves her. But being in the Guild is not a choice. It’s a life sentence.
When Emma begins to rebel against the rules, Leader tightens his hold. The Guilded cage he created crashes down, forcing her to make a choice: stay and obey, or fight to get free of his far-reaching authority.
No one joins a cult on purpose, but getting out requires a strategy.
The Guild Book One
Diligence
People died.
Emma is dealing with the aftermath of the shootout that changed her life. Yet, Leader expects her to go on living like nothing happened.
In a bout of rebellion, Emma hacks Guild systems and catches the notice of the CIA. For the first time in her life, Emma has power and possibilities.
But the CIA wants Emma to betray Leader. With Obedience and Diligence at her heels, and freedom ahead, Emma is forced to make a lot of dangerous decisions.
And chances are, more people will die.

Secrets are empowering.
Emma’s life in the Guild has never been easy. That’s why it’s such a nice change when her new Leader glides in with kindness and a gentler regime.
When Emma is accidentally let in on a secret her superiors are keeping from Leader, she finally has the leverage she’s always needed. In the name of Confidence, a little bit of blackmail can go a long way.
But some new information about her origins has the potential to blow up Emma’s entire life. From her budding romance to her growing friendships, everything is in question. Everything is threatened.
Secrets are deadly.
The Guild Book Three
Obscured Passages
They remind me, “Be a good girl.”
Good means silent.
Nichole is six years old when she’s dressed in white, carried into the candlelit dark, and sold as a single-use bride for the first time.
Expected to be good, silent, and obedient, Nichole is indoctrinated to believe she’s doing God’s work. She’s told she will bring blessings for her family. But really, she’s just broken into pieces.
The pieces have names. They have roles. They have identities. And not all of them are willing to be silent. Even with the life-threatening consequences of defying The Priesthood hanging over her head, Nichole and her parts are not content to stay in the dark forever.
It is time to break the silence.
