Her destiny lies in the cards…
Melanie Simpson’s world turns upside down after she unearths the secret her father hid for twenty years — alien technology smuggled from the infamous 1947 Roswell UFO crash. Now, with dangerous men desperate to take it from her, Melanie discovers her father’s deeper secret: a mysterious device given to him by a dying alien, and a quest he never completed. In a letter left behind, her father warns that if she’s reading it, he’s been killed, and it’s now up to her to finish what he started.

With her friends by her side, Melanie embarks on a perilous journey to try and piece together the hidden clues to the location of this mysterious device, all while evading the dangerous men after her. But a tarot card reading unveils an even greater mystery: a connection to the stars and a destiny revealed within the cards.

Set against an historical backdrop of UFO sightings, government cover-ups, civil rights, Vietnam, and the paranoia of the Cold War, The Tale of the Tarot is a recipe of blended mystery, science fiction, espionage, and suspense. As Melanie delves deeper into her father’s secrets, driven by that destiny, she must navigate a world of lies, deception, and life-threatening danger — all while questioning her own sanity.

This is Book One of the Melanie Simpson Mystery Series and follows the prequel, The Roswell Quest

An epic, heartfelt saga of hope and resilience, Westward Courage follows a New York socialite struggling to adapt to the sacrifices of life on the Oregon Trail.

1850, Independence, Missouri: At twenty years old, Caroline Harper has everything she could want–wealth, position, the attention of an eligible bachelor. When her brother’s news destroys all of that and everything is lost, Caroline must decide what kind of life she wants.

As the Harpers make their way along the grueling thousands of miles of Oregon Trail, over sweeping plains and through dangerous rivers, Caroline learns what real sacrifice can be. None of her clothes are right for the elements, snakes and natives threaten at every turn, and she has no idea how to cook over a campfire.

But mile after mile west, through new friendships, and a new love, Caroline discovers strength, poise and potential she didn’t know she possessed.

Strength that perhaps was not in that spoiled city girl at all.

But will it be enough to survive and bring Caroline and her brother all the way to Oregon?

The battles ahead will test more than weapons; they will test the will of a world that refuses to surrender.

From vast space battles to the depths of human ambition, Sodenia Stellaris is the story of a ship, a crew, and humanity’s fight to claim its place among the stars.
