three nations on the brink of war
Charismatic guildmaster Azul, one of five merchant princes governing the freedom-loving nation of Liberty, is about to host the Three-Roses Gala at his Courtesana Guild pleasure castle, in the hopes of averting war.
That means trying to find common ground between the religious fanatics of Dominion, a kingdom that kneels before the dominatrix-nuns of the Domina Divina faith, and the crystal-powered Culturati who rule the technologically advanced Commune with an iron fist.
Fortunately, Azul has a sultry hot spymaster Daphne and a fierce bodyguard Fiona to rely on.
Unfortunately, the Shadow District beneath Liberty is flooding the streets with deaths-head faerie dust, there are military bioweapons running amok, the outlaw Rojo is slaughtering anyone in his way and…
…Esmeralda begins discovering what exactly her alter-ego Escarlata has been up to at night. Namely, engaging in lots of sex, illict substances and murder. And lighting things on fire.
Often all at once.
Then, when she receives an exclusive invite from Azul to join the Courtesana Guild, right around the same time Dominion friars and Commune clockwork assassins begin targeting her, all manner of sexy mayhem ensues. Love triangles, threesomes, orgies and stylish ultra-violence abound.
Not to mention, there are tentacles involved.
If you want to explore the world of Esmeralda and Escarlata through the eyes of three unique characters, check out my novella Steamy Punk.
Nightclubs,
Sexbots &
Dominatrix-Nuns
A collection of three erotic tales from the Esmeralda & Escarlata universe, Steamy Punk centers on:
- Mai, an exotic dancer struggling to survive in the seedy Shadow District underbelly beneath Liberty, as she sneaks into one of the Hawkmoth Syndicate nightclub afterparties to save her kidnapped sister from human traffickers.
- Anaya, a techno-terrorist leading a crew of misfits to try and thwart the rising threat of AI in the crystal-powered cyberpunk city of Commune, as she undertakes a mission to infiltrate the Sexbots Inc. factory.
- Bella, a newly ordained dominatrix-nun in the Domina Divina sisterhood that rules the gothic kingdom of Dominion, who is recruited by High-Sister Piety to spy on one of the Desert Barons plotting a coup.
As they pursue their goals, discovering unexpected alliances and growing dangers along the way — not to mention all kinds of steamy excitement — their three storylines will converge in a surprising finale.
Steamy Punk takes place shortly before the events of Esmeralda & Escarlata, serving as a world-building prequel. Mai, Anaya and Bella will also play a part later in the plot of the ongoing main series, so if you enjoy Steamy Punk, stay tuned.

And if you desire a dark fantasy novel that is maximum cosmic horror, minus the erotica, with sorcery, miracles and futuristic science-fiction, might I recommend my other series, Magifamilia.
Lovecraftian
Dark Fantasy
Three thousand years ago, the Magus came from the stars, forging the familias into immortal sorcerers with blood communion. He slashed his palms and bled lustrous ichors into chalices, stripping himself of dread powers whilst they drank his essence. Each communion drained him profoundly, and as he withered away, he hoarsely whispered dire warnings to his newly anointed disciples.
The Magus foretold the coming of ancient horrors that would devour their very souls if they practiced magic openly, and swore them to eternal secrecy. He bade them knight only a chosen few with the sacred blood ritual. Then, in the stillness of dawn, he hobbled away into the desert sands, never to return… until now
As cosmic hunters descend and primordial foes awaken to settle old scores, an intergalactic conflict will pit the Magifamilia against the Iglesians and the Alchemist Cartel. Mafioso wizardry, angelic abominations, and futuristic weaponry collide in this genre-bending Lovecraftian fantasy series
The dramatic conclusion to Magifamilia is coming in 2025!
Devils, Angels
& Elder Gods
The sequel Magifamilia: Apocalypse will also bring the series to a definitive, apocalyptic end, as all heaven and hell breaks loose with a universe-devouring threat that rapidly spirals out of control. Will the Dekali, Solomon and Lovecraft familias survive? Will the very laws of physics withstand the calamity that is to unfold as the Ulbyssals make their move, as the Alchemist Cartel builds a Godslayer beam in their fortress-laboratory and as the surviving Archons strike with a deadly ambush? And not all is as it seems with the newly-anointed Ichorist familia…
