Author’s Inspiration ~

“Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of
looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to
laugh at life's realities”
Dr. Seuss

Creating an adventure, a
love story that would leave you breathless, and a world like none imagined! That
has been my motivation and my inspiration in becoming an historical fantasy
author. To take you away to a world that will not only welcome you but hold you
in its embrace until you must leave for a time. Only to welcome you back when
the world becomes a bit hard to deal with. Escapism is it? It most certainly
is, and I am proud to say I write it joyously and passionately, inviting you to
leave behind your troubles, and cares for a time. The majesty
of the Scottish Highlands and the ethereal beauty
of Ireland come alive in the mythical realm of Rinefield!
In
the Treasure of Gwenlais you will find Princess Laurel of Gwenlais, is
tragically and quickly thrust into a world of danger, so unlike the idyllic and
sheltered life she has known. These dangers from an unknown enemy, also
unexpectedly throw her into the arms of Caleb, the warrior Prince of Heathwin,
the nearby Kingdom with whom Gwenlais has a tense alliance. The more refined
people of Gwenlais, find their neighbors and protectors of the West necessary,
but consider them uncouth and sometimes barbaric. The long and bloody feud between Heathwin, and the mysterious,
frightening, and misunderstood, race of beings, called the Rabkins, had finally
reached an uneasy truce, by the hard-fought and diligent efforts of Prince
Caleb. This fragile agreement was soon
shattered by an attack from outside; that threaten both Kingdoms of
Gwenlais and Heathwin. Laurel and Caleb find
themselves, not only fighting for the peace and existence of their Kingdoms but
fighting for their newfound love that is imperiled at every turn from a
nameless enemy, and their own people as well.
In Child of the Kindred,
book #2 in the continuing fantasy saga you will see the residents of Rienfield
realizing their world is changing, and a new era has begun. Princess
Laurel finds her kingdom of Gwenlais, torn and shattered from a bloody siege.
Her people now looking to her to help them rise above the ruin and misery
inflicted upon their once peaceful and sheltered realm. Laurel, and her beloved
Prince Caleb, must find a way to unite their kingdoms as never before. The
enemy from a distant land makes a bold and savage attempt to thwart the unity
of the two kingdoms of Gwenlais and Heathwin. The odds have never been greater
against the realms, or the two lovers that hold the kingdoms together. Will
their people and their love survive all they have lost? Will new life rise from
above the ruins?
Join Laurel, Caleb, and
an epic cast on an extraordinary journey, filled with excitement, treachery,
danger and finding a love you only dared dream of!
Come

away realm. A world where you will find
