Debi Ennis Binder

Debi’s worlds are built on her deep need for austerity, integrity, love… Yes, well, unfortunately, she’s yet to find that world. Meanwhile, step into her books, where you’ll discover glorious realms with snarky cats, sly foxes, and altruistic dragons. Strong, imperfect women fighting to make things right, and the brawny men who support them, even when they have their own agenda. And underlying it all, a wavering line between good and evil that somehow always comes out right in the end.
