Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Lucretia Stanhope is a relentlessly optimistic crone who refuses to let her growing collection of rare illnesses steal her sparkle. She prefers to think of herself as medically fascinating as opposed to disabled. Seriously, half of these diseases sound less realistic than her most fanciful novels.

Powered by the support of an amazing husband and family, when she isn’t cuddling with her rescue chi-mixes, Thor and Moxie, she spends her days in creative pursuits that range from drawing and painting to crochet and writing.

This is the landing page for all the pen names that include solo and collaborative novels. Please note genres and content advisories as these novels range from YA friendly, to adult only romances and graphic horror, with a touch of everything in between.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real five-star read!

When I first began reading “Fabricating Fortunes,” I never thought I’d be so pleasantly surprised to get to know Maryanne. The character development was truly great here; I mean, it’s never an easy task to make a reader sympathize with the character they always perceived as somewhat antagonistic. However, in this particular installment, we get an intimate glimpse into her story and motivations and suddenly, it all starts to make sense.

As with the previous books in the series, there was plenty of intrigue and plot twists. Now that the vampires decided to restructure, so to speak, their hierarchy, Maryanne can finally enjoy the power she’d been craving for so long. But with great power comes great responsibility and even greater danger. Will she be able to keep her position or will she lose it and along with it, her life as well? Read the story to find out! A real five-star read!

4.0 out of 5 stars Totally unexpected from a character I've always disliked
Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2019
This story is about Maryanne, a character I've always disliked throughout the entire series. My feelings for her haven't changed, but now I have a more in depth appreciation for who she is and the role she'll play with the vampires going forward.
I love what the author's done for the development of this character and look forward to finding out what happens next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Addicting and flawlessly executed...

This next installment in the addicting and exceptionally well-written series of witches and vampires focuses on Maryanne, a character I had previously intensely disliked. After reading Fabricating Fortunes I not only understand her motivations and choices better, I actually like her spunk, drive, and ruthless nature. She's been hurt often and yet she's a powerhouse of strength and perseverance. Her disconnect is part of her charm and this novel really showcased her abilities.

As with all the books in this series, the plot deepens, the world building continues to broaden, and the twists and turns keep coming. Each book builds on the last and brings a unique, detailed, and vibrant story to life. Don't miss out on this series. I love how we are kept in the loop about Gwen's legacy of witches and the vampire dealings that interweave so viciously and carefully.

Excellent book from an excellent author. Highly recommended!

In this part of the series, you get to see Maryanne as something more than a simpering, whimpering hateful mother. Well, she's still that, and someone you love to hate for that reason. The author takes you down another road with this up-until-now minor character in the story. You learn more about what makes Maryanne tick and what made her that way. Great character development that adds to the overall plot of the series. Just when you think, you've covered all the types of situations the characters could encounter, the author throws the unexpected at you. More to empower the vampires in the the mix. Great storytelling that keeps you captivated.

5.0 out of 5 stars One helluva character to watch out for
Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2018

This one turned out to be full of surprises and is definitely one of my fave in the series. Maryanne has always been a pesky love-to-hate character with not much of a personality. This book focuses entirely on her new power play and although she's still a dislikeable manipulative character but she's now so much more interesting and even more dangerous with her new power. Unlike her daughter Rose who tend to fight with her strength, Maryanne fights with her wit and cunningness which really makes her one helluva character to watch out for.

This is another thrilling installment to the elemental witch series. Maryanne, a character I thought was fairly unpleasant in former books, finally gets to the position of power she has always craved when she is given permission to divorce her husband and marry another ruler, only now the vampires have altered the rules and it is the women who will hold the prime position, not the men. The wonderful insights into Maryanne's life show exactly why she became how she was and why she is so wary of letting anyone close to her, including children.

Even a ruler has to watch her back, especially when the vampires could replace her just as easily as they installed her if she doesn't produce the child she has been ordered to bear from this new bloodline. Then there is the problem of a hidden enemy on her realm. In order to obey her vampire master, she has to stay alive as well as keeping her gifted witches alive. It isn't so easy when they seem to be dropping like flies, but who can she trust and how can she keep those trusted in line? Once again a stunning story.

Another great installment in the series, this time focussing on Maryanne - not a favourite character of mine. However, there is further understanding as to why she acts as she does, and part of me is sympathetic...but I still don't like her. Nevertheless, it was a fabulous story that delves even deeper into this fascinating fantasy world.

I wonder if the witches are ever going to get the upper hand, for although it creates tension and makes for a compelling read, I really dislike those power-crazed and cruel vampires. That's what makes it a terrific read, of course; villains are perfect for that.

So then, of course, I loved it and would highly recommend this book - the whole series - steeped in magic, mystery, love, deviousness, power and so much more. It's fantasy yet believable and realistic.

You will be hooked, like me.

The major female protagonist is drawn beautifully as she finds out someone is trying to harm her and her unborn child and she sets out in a cold calculating way to find and destroy her enemies while trying to decide who is friend or foe. The dangerous and chilling scenario is described well as are the various characters who vie for attention and power in this society. I look forward to reading the next in the series.
