Meet Jessica McClain -- she just became part of the pack.

Called a curse, a witch and the Daughter of Evil by the superstitious wolves, Jessica decides to fight for her freedom, at age nineteen, the only way she can-in the ring. When she's brutally attacked right after her fight, is it enough to finally earn her freedom off Compound, or will she be forced to endure the hatred even longer . . . Word Count ~ 19,400

Converging Territories

In 2105, bad guys love gardening. Mina Kane’s next undercover op is of the green thumb variety. Tasked to break into a penthouse at the tip-top of a megascraper and airmeld incriminating data on a hydro-shipping mogul, Mina must first pose as an apt gardener who knows a thing or two about roses. The only problem is the rookie’s along for the ride and he’s a pro at making everything more difficult than it has to be. Infiltrating the inner sanctum proves to be time consuming, and Agent Adam has a chance to shine, but that’s not all Mina’s in for. Her baby brother is in some trouble, and Vincent Kramer, the colonel-in-arms of the French Protectorate, is missing. An encrypted locator shows up at Mina’s door, but her childhood-pal-turned-international-heartthrob, is still nowhere to be found. This op is one solar flare away from being the biggest, deadliest one yet.

Her craft is fast, her weapons deadly, and her tech has been optimized as well as it can be for a climate clogged with iron dust. But things take a big turn when she decides to become the boy's guardian instead of hand him over. Outskirts have descended on the city, and their plans don't include playing nice. When her crew is backed against a graphene wall, it's a good thing her Gem is primed and ready to go. It's almost as deadly as she is...
