The Scarlet series takes the Robin Hood legend and turns it on its side by making Will Scarlet a girl in disguise. Scarlet (2012) introduces Will as a thief working alongside Robin Hood in Sherwood Forest, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor while hiding her true identity. The Sheriff of Nottingham is closing in, and Will’s secret becomes harder to keep as the stakes rise.

Lady Thief (2014) deals with the fallout of revelations from the first book, and Lion Heart (2015) brings the story to a conclusion as Will confronts her past and fights for her future. The series mixes action, romance, and medieval English history, appealing to readers who enjoy both the Robin Hood mythology and stories about women defying the roles assigned to them.
