What to expect
A godless miracle worker. A suicidal teenager. Can a young woman save the dying when the backlash whittles away at her life?
Jane Davis isn’t a hero. A twenty-five-year-old rebellious vagabond, she’s stupefied when she discovers she’s developed supernatural powers. Desperate for answers, her search catapults her into the orbit of a disturbed teen carrying a devastating secret—magic and horrific monsters are spreading.
Joining forces, Jane and her young mentor scramble to navigate a swelling river of blood. But with living nightmares stalking her every move and chilling revelations shredding her trust, the determined survivor fears she’s grossly misplaced her faith.
Can Jane save herself, her spiraling friend, and the disintegrating world when each miraculous casting extracts a gruesome price?
Indie Saint is the first book in Words of Power, an engrossing dark urban fantasy quartet. Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets the Umbrella Academy with a morally gray ensemble cast full of found family, wild brawls, and spicy m/f and m/m love stories.

Synopsis
Jane’s young. She’s broke. Oh, and she just discovered she has supernatural powers so bizarre they may end up killing her.Since she read a biography of Catholic saints and began spontaneously healing the sick and calling down lightning, Jane’s day-to-day has become a trippy journey of self-discovery. Lucky thing a pair of magical special agents appear and offer to train her, because it turns out that not only has Jane’s life taken a hard turn for the weird, but the fabric of reality is beginning to unravel.Urban legends like Mothman, the Jersey Devil, and Bunnyman are manifesting in a sleepy Pennsylvania town, and they are haaangry.The good news: Jane’s new boyfriend is part of an ancient corporation of literary superheroes ready to save the world. The bad news: life expectancy for people with powers kind of sucks.If Jane wants to live long enough to see the year 2000, she’ll have to work with her new mentor, a teenaged, angsty King Arthur; her current crush, cuddly god-man Enkidu; and a gun-nun from a neighboring comba-convent to seize her role as a try-hard hero and stop a middle-aged madwoman from ripping a hole in the multiverse.Indie Saint is an urban fantasy adventure with a dose of Sumerian, Arthurian, and modern mythologies, and a dash of romance. Fans of Quentin Tarantino, Tamsyn Muir, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer will enjoy the cheeky writing, toasty romance, and technicolor brawls.
