I’m a psychologist by training and a writer by passion. I started writing about ten years ago, and in the time since, I’ve worked with four different publishers to release over twenty books. It’s been a surreal and wild ride.
I’m the author of a dozen books for teens, including The Impostor Queen series, Of Metal and Wishes, the Guards of the Shadowlands YA urban fantasy series, and the futuristic psychological thriller Uncanny. I’m also the co-author (with Walter Jury) of two YA sci-fi thrillers: Scan and its sequel Burn.
I’ve also written three adult urban fantasy romance series. The bestselling Servants of Fate series includes Marked, Claimed, and Fated. The Immortal Dealers series includes The Serpent, The Guardian, and The Warrior. And the Reliquary series includes Reliquary, Splinter, Mosaic, and a fourth and final book in the series, which will be published in 2020!
I also write contemporary romances (Anything Between Us is the most recent, but there are more to come!) and, under the pseudonym S.F. Kosa, have begun to write psychological thrillers, the first of which, The Quiet Girl, will be published by Sourcebooks in August 2020!

- I have the approximate musical tastes of an adolescent boy. Trust me.
- If you fry it, I’ll probably be willing to eat it.
