Where Light Breaks Through
I write speculative fiction that awakens the human spirit in battles for truth, justice, and freedom—stories where light breaks through, hope rises, and a deeper grace quietly overcomes.
New Release Coming Soon!
Four friends. One summer hike. A hidden world with no way home. When Liam, Gracie, Henry, and Scarlet wander into a cave on a mountain trail, they tumble into the Realm of Sage—a wondrous land of peppermint snow, talking parrots, and a quirky green guide named Shamus. But the portal home has sealed behind them. Their only path back? Following a mysterious trail full of riddles, dangers, and choices that test their hearts. Secrets of Sage is a middle-grade fantasy adventure for readers ages 9–12. Every chapter unfolds like its own episode, each inspired by a Bible verse from Proverbs. Along the way, kids discover that courage, honesty, and wisdom aren’t burdens—they’re gifts. A joyful quest for young readers who love wisdom through adventure.
