question:
I've always loved history and been fascinated by the real stories of people from the past. So it was a natural thing for me to begin creating some of those stories too!

“The saddest thing is there won’t be anyone to miss us when we’re gone. No family, no friends, no one waiting at home.”
“It’s better that way,” I said. “It’ll be easier for me, knowing my death doesn’t add to anyone’s pain.”
“If you can’t give anyone pain, then you can’t give them joy either.”

Thank you so much for accepting my friend request! The Ascendance Trilogy is AMAZING. I was literally at the edge of my seat in each book. Sage/Jaron is a brilliant, inspiring protagonist. The characters are totally amusing and the plot is engaging (the twists are particularly mind-blowing). One of my favorite trilogies, definitely. :)

Fingers crossed, Dove! Thanks very much!

Looking forward to reading Runaway Prince!
OMG!!! i wish you could chose the date, if you could, i bet you would release the book a day or two after the books was published!!! Oh, and BTW, good luck editing!!!
another day closer to the book release!!
another day closer to the book release!!
Cindy - the crazy thing about this business is the release date is set by the publisher. RUNAWAY KING has actually been finished for several months, but it takes time to do all the printing and distributing. I'm actually doing editing for book 3 right now. Crazy right?
Have a great day! (One day closer to the book's release...)

Thanks Steven - I was thrilled with what they wrote, and even happier to see other papers pick up the review too.
