In the King's Power Series

Alyssa Calderon, powerful psychic, and highly trained field operative for the Order of the Four Sons, gets separated from her team when a mission goes south. Injured and alone, she finds a door that leads her to a strange and magical world called Corbenic. And the door doesn’t lead her just anywhere—it delivers her right to the royal palace, where she now finds herself at the mercy of its tyrannical King, James Sarpedonne. Days turn into weeks. Weeks turn into months. As Alyssa remains a prisoner, she finds her hope of ever returning home waning. Can Corbenic be her new home? Does she want it to be? She finds there are no easy answers, especially as she comes to make new friends, a new family, maybe even a new life.

Part 1 - available September 1, 2024

Almost immediately, Alyssa finds that she feels oddly drawn to her royal captors, a feeling that appears to be mutual. King James recognizes Alyssa’s value as a seer and decides to keep her at the palace to serve him, which includes getting engaged to a prince. As Alyssa struggles to find her footing in this alien world -- a world filled with geomancers and alchemists, nobles and courtesans, fairies and mermaids – she must also find a way to hang on to her self.

Summer turns to fall. With Leo and Christophe back at school, Alyssa has to figure out ways to fill her time when she’s not dealing with James. (Or worse, Endymion.) Every morning, James demands predictions, and nearly every night, he comes to her room for chess and conversation. He also starts having Alyssa accompany him at court functions, which gets people talking—who is this foreign girl, and why does the King spend so much time with her? The uncomfortable intimacy that develops teaches Alyssa just how cruel James can be—and if it weren’t for Corbenic’s excellent healers, she would have the scars to prove it. It also stokes the attraction that has been simmering away between the two of them.
