Published Works:
Domed Cities Saga: Book 1 - Rise of the Pact
Behind the safety of massive Domes, humanity survives on borrowed time. When long-sealed cities begin to stir and ancient power awakens, Lione Kang and her allies uncover a truth buried beneath the grid that protects them. As political tensions rise and forgotten forces move in the shadows, three young women discover they are bound to elemental powers older than the Domes themselves. The Pact that once kept the world whole is fracturing—and the cost of survival may be everything they are.
Domed Cities Saga: Book 2 - Children of the Veil
The Domes are no longer isolated. As hidden pathways reopen and long-lost histories surface, alliances are tested and enemies reveal themselves. The Sirens’ powers deepen, but so do the dangers surrounding them—especially from forces that seek to control the Veil between worlds. Betrayal, political intrigue, and rising war threaten to tear the cities apart, forcing each character to confront who they are becoming—and what they are willing to sacrifice to protect the fragile future forming beyond the walls.
Domed Cities Saga: Book 3 - Veilfire Ascending
War is no longer looming—it has begun. As the Domed Cities and Kowloon move toward open conflict, ancient Guardians stir and truths about the world outside the Veil come dangerously close to revelation. Power reaches its breaking point, loyalties fracture, and the line between protector and weapon blurs. When a message arrives from far beyond the known world, everything changes. The future of the Domes—and the fate of what lies beyond them—will be decided in fire.
