Cry Of The Wolf Publications

---

The Child of Fang and Flame 

In a world smothered beneath a sorcerous Veil and ruled by the iron grip of the Dark Guild, hope should have died long ago. But on a blood‑soaked battlefield, destiny refuses to stay buried.

A dragon and a wolf—ancient friends bound by loyalty deeper than magic—discover an abandoned infant among the fallen. They raise her as their own, unaware that the child they’ve rescued is the lost heir to the throne of Sabbia… and the last living Pyrekin, a rare human born with fire burning in her very bones.

As she grows, the girl becomes a warrior forged by fang, flame, and the wild freedom of the mountains. But the Dark Guild has not forgotten the prophecy that foretells her rise. They hunt her relentlessly, determined to extinguish the spark that could shatter their dominion and unravel the Veil that cages the Five Kingdoms.

When truth collides with destiny, she must choose: claim the crown she never asked for and lead a rebellion against the Guild, or carve her own path—one as untamed as the dragon and wolf who raised her.

Epic battles, fierce loyalty, ancient magic, and the fire of a girl who refuses to be controlled collide in this sweeping YA fantasy about found family, fate, and the courage to ignite a revolution.

My poem "Under the stars with you" is published in this anthology

Fireworks Over Bristol A hometown return. A rekindled love. A threat that could shatter everything.

Global pop star Samantha Keen comes back to Rhode Island hoping for quiet-only to be met with an FBI warning from the boy she once loved.

As the holiday crowds swell and the coastal town comes alive, Samantha and Randall are pulled into a race against time-tracking encrypted messages, shadow suspects, and a plot designed to ignite right under the fireworks. What begins as a security briefing becomes something far more dangerous: a second chance neither of them expected, forged under pressure, fear, and the undeniable pull of old love.
