The Archer's Amulet
The Lumen Legacy Series
What happens when a fae needs the help of a mortal?
The unique timber of The Elderwood is the backbone of Lucy's family legacy, and she always thought she'd follow in her brothers' footsteps and join the family business. When an arranged marriage threatens to shatter her careful plans for her future, she flees to the mysterious, endangered Elderwood, determined to prove to everyone that she's more than just a pawn who happens to be fae.
She can't save The Elderwood alone, though. Stranded in the mortal realm, Lucy must convince Micah to help her. Unfortunately, he's mortal and could care less about her and her quest.
Micah doesn't believe in love or magic. Why should he when life dealt him this hand? But when Lucy discovers Micah is the key to everything, she must convince him to help her before it's too late.
The Archer's Alchemy
The Lumen Legacy Series
She's caught between two men, two worlds, and a heap of trouble.
Lucy's wedding to Laurent is drawing near, and she can't seem to stop it. Even worse, as she gets to know the Lord, she realizes he isn't the monster she thought he would be. Her immense power, gifted to her by The Elderwood after her time with Micah, is complicated and unique, just like her forbidden relationship with the human.
As guardian of the Elderwood, Micah should be keeping the land safe, but the portal has been cracked open. Shadow creatures are creeping out and threatening to destroy the land. If he continues to fail, he'll disrupt centuries of Denoran tradition and never have the life with Lucy he sacrificed everything to obtain.
Lucy must make a decision. She can break the chains of Denoran tradition and save her lover, or she can give into the call of her arranged marriage. She can't have both.
Finally - a flipped fantasy where the female isn’t completely helpless and needs to be rescued by a guy with magic. This is truly a character-centric story. The author thought through the personality of a main female character that isn’t young just for the sake of showing how much she needs a guy to counterbalance her impulsiveness.Take the coming-of-age journey with Lucy as she figures out, for herself, what she wants her life to be. I want to know more about her backstory, and her next chapter, and can’t wait to see what’s next in the Lumen Legacy series!

I loved this so much! This story is beautifully imagined and crafted. After the pace picked up around chapter 6 I literally could not stop reading, all the way through to the end. I need to find out what happens next! What are they going to do now? How am I going to wait until the next book?! I love that this story has completely new ideas that I haven't seen before, and plot twists and turns make it super interesting. It was beautiful and scary and heartbreaking and MAGICAL. Strong. So well done.

So this is the first book for this author and I think it was very well done. The world has some really great elements (fae, magic, mystery, romance). I also think the author did a great job with the female main character making her feel both young (in fae terms) and older (in human terms). I really appreciated that because I feel it’s sometimes something authors miss when writing immortal-ish characters. I think the overall flow of the book needs just a little fine tuning but it was a quick, easy, and fun read. Looking forward to the next one!
