“Ascendant” – Packed with adventure and suspense and blending elements of science fiction, fantasy, and dystopia, it transports readers to a disintegrated world where civilization has collapsed, and chaos is the new normal. With her previous work garnering rave reviews and a devoted readership, Ascendant is poised to become a must-read for fans seeking an enthralling escape into a fast-paced dystopian world.

I, Lacy Monroe, intend to survive. My lover Jace and I can’t escape my corrupt uncle, Senator Thomas Monroe. He captures and separates us, forcing us to work for him. He sends me to Mexico City to secure an army to overthrow what remains of the US government. He sends Jace on a suicide mission to conquer New Mexico, the only remaining free state in the Southwest. I was captured. Beaten. Groomed for a sex-trafficking ring. But my brother is looking for me. Jace plays a dangerous cat-and-mouse game, pretending to help my uncle while secretly sabotaging him. But if his deception is discovered…I want to become the Ascendant, the one who risks it all and defeats my uncle, then finds some measure of peace. But time is running out for us and this treacherous world we now inhabit. (Amazon, 2023)

“Book 2, Ascendant, is more intense. I’m curious what readers will say because of where Lacy ends up. And what happens to Jace leaves a mark on your soul. It’s about what people have to go through to survive, and its aftermath.” – Susy Smith
