Magick Rising Premise:
Magick emerges. Darkness consumes. Warriors collide.
When Lola awoke from the darkness, she never expected him. Impressively savage with a sword, Lola rarely relied on plans to conquer her challenges. However, everything changes when she encounters Kingsley Do’Ramos, the second-born son of Kingsguard Reef. While she harbored no fear of the Darkness, the dreadful plague that claimed her family, her newfound life-bending magick, or her adversaries, the thought of trusting Kingsley terrifies her.
Kingsley, known as "King," had his life meticulously planned as the high-born second prince of Kingsguard Reef. Destined to become the warlord, he never aspired to claim the throne. Yet, when the Darkness engulfed his world, tragically taking his brother, it thrust upon him a role he never desired— future king.
Determined to escape the burden of the throne, he unexpectedly crosses paths with Princess Lola, the spirited and fierce last daughter of Mōsa. Far from the conventional princess, she possesses a bold demeanor, and her prowess as a warrior is unmatched. Somehow, Lola manages to captivate him m.
As the Darkness relentlessly engulfs their world, Lola and Kingsley's enigmatic bond, coupled with an insatiable attraction, maybe their salvation or spell utter ruin for Mosa. As they navigate the complexities of their intertwined destinies, will their shared journey lead them to embrace them, or will it unravel into uncertainty, betrayal, and chaos?
Content Warning:
The Mōsa Chronicles invites you to the fantastical world of Transea, where people are trying to survive the Darkness—a deadly plague. As magick awakens, warriors collide, and enemies ignite, this series tells a story of loss and the journey to heal and find joy and maybe even love in the most unexpected places.
Centered on Women of Color and inspired by the Caribbean, the series features some heavy elements, including parental abuse, death and gore, murder, sexual content, off-page sexual assault, strong language, political unrest, racism, and violence.
As a social worker and former therapist, I have drawn from my own experiences and extensive research on these elements. My goal in writing is to edify and do no harm.
Please enjoy and take care of yourself as you enter the island of Mōsa.
The port of Mōsa is now open.

“And all you hear is me screaming NOOOOO!!! Wow that was good - I suspected that she alone wasn’t strong enough but I can’t wait to see what will happen. The way you write is so beautiful and the words you use for describing things just opens the mind to see it so easily. Once I got past those things that confused me- the book held me captive. What a great success this book is going to be!”
“OMG! What an ending. My mouth is just hanging open. This chapter was INTENSE and now this crazy cliffhanger - so well done! I can only imagine what will come in the next book(s). Lola learning more about Rivian, the fight to get Sole back, hopefully, Luna waking up and getting the bow. How long do I have to wait for the next book?!?!”
