The Sands of Wonder SeriesThe Sultan and The Storyteller; Daughter of Thieves; Guardian of Thieves

Enter a world where genies are hidden, magic carpets aren't what they seem, and the street rat may have a bigger destiny than she ever could have known. This gender-swapped retelling of Aladdin is nothing like you've experienced before.

The Prequel - The Sultan and The Storyteller

For thirty-nine nights, the sultan of Zunbar has chosen a new wife.

For thirty-nine dawns, they are pronounced dead.

When Sultan Zayne summons my best friend to be taken as his newest victim, I can no longer pretend to be blind and volunteer in her stead. My only plan--weave a story each night and hopefully learn why he would kill in the first place.

As I unravel the tapestry of lies, I learn there's more going on inside the gilded walls of the palace than anyone in the land could ever realize. I've woven myself into the story, and if I don't pull on the right thread, it's not only my life at stake but my heart.

This retelling of Scheherezade and 1001 Nights is packed with adventure, mystery, and magic!

Book 1 - Daughter of Thieves

Book 2 - Guardian of Thieves

A street rat. A magic lamp. An obnoxiously handsome prince.

What should have been an easy-in, easy-out job with my father became a nightmare when he was arrested by the soldiers of Zunbar. As if things couldn't get any more complicated, my estranged mother has demanded I enter the Desert Trials and find the magic lamp hidden inside the Dragon’s Lair cave.

The Desert Trails: a series of ten tasks to prove a sorceress's proficiency in the art of magic.

How hard could it be?

Only, I wasn't blessed with the gift of magic.

Surviving the trials is only part of the problem. I’ve inadvertently partnered with Prince “Abu” and he’s bent on taking the magic lamp from me. I'm not about to let some dashing prince steal my father's freedom.

But the Dragon’s Lair is more like the Cave of Nightmares, and I can’t escape without Prince Abudar’s help. If we don’t work together, we might not make it out alive, and I am not wasting my only wish in order to escape.

I had no idea teaming up with the handsome prince would lead me on an adventure beyond the caves and I must decide my own path--follow in my father's footsteps, or become the guardian of thieves I was meant to be?
