Like Mayflies in the Stream
This novel is under contract with Hadley Rille Books and takes place in ancient Mesopotamia. I'll put up a dedicated page for it soon.
The Convivencia Series
The Convivencia Series is set in a society resembling Renaissance Europe. Adherents of three religions share an uneasy peace: the practical Watched Ones, who worship the two moons; the uninhibited and lively Lifegiven, who worship the sun; and the reserved, modest Myriadists, who worship the stars. All share a common holy site, the Shrine of the Heavens in the land of Argent. Many also dream of convivencia—harmony among the religions. Unfortunately, not everyone shares that dream . . .

Shrine of the Heavens
fantasy
To win his inheritance, telescope merchant Joz O’Thal must travel to the Shrine of the Heavens to complete a crucial business deal. Many obstacles stand in the way of Joz’s success: his inexperience leading a caravan, the harsh landscape, challenges to his leadership, betrayal by his ruthless brothers, contention among his traveling companions caused by their class and religious differences, a friend who proves false, outbreak of religious war—and his growing love for a forbidden woman.

Escape from Argent
fantasy
A pilgrim stranded in Argent earns the money to go home by agreeing to lead Myriadist and Lifegiven religious refugees to safety by an Underground Railroad. The job turns out to be more dangerous than he had bargained for. The refugees are trailed by a dangerous crime boss, and someone is destroying the safe houses on the Railroad after their visits. Meanwhile, the pilgrim must decide where home really is—with the people who own him, or with the sister he was violently separated from years earlier.
