YOUNG ADULT PARANORMAL AUTHOR
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
I have been a writer from the time I was old enough to recognize that reading was a doorway into my imagination. Poetry was my first
foray into the art of the written word. Books were my best friends, my escape,
my haven. I am essentially a recluse but this part of my personality is
impossible to practice given I have two teenage daughters, who are actually my
friends, my tea-makers, my confidantes… I am blessed with a husband who has
left me for golf. It’s a fair trade as I have left him for writing. We are both
passionate supporters of each others loves – it works wonderfully…
My heart is currently broken in two. One half resides
in South Africa where my old roots still remain, and my heart still longs for
the endless beaches and the smell of moist soil after a summer downpour. My
love for Ma Afrika will never fade. The other half of me has been transplanted
to the Land of the Long White Cloud. The land of the Taniwha, beautiful Maraes,
and volcanoes. The land of green, pure beauty that truly inspires. And because
I am so torn between these two lands – I shall forever remain cross-eyed.

"That
day I knew for sure. I'd lost control of my tears then. They fell in huge,

was a freak and Joshua was going to die."

EXCERPT:
“For
a shadow of a second, I stared into his eyes, shocked, horrified he'd do such a
thing to me. A thousand fears filtered through my frigid brain. Was he in
cahoots with Loki? Or was he Freya's dog all along?
It
took an eternity for him to blink. Even longer for me to blink.
Then
Fenrir pushed me and I fell off the cliff, into pure white oblivion.”
DESCRIPTION:
Valkyrie-in-training Bryn Halbrook just can't
catch a break. With her boyfriend stuck in Hel and the taunting laughter of
Loki still ringing in her ears, she struggles to concentrate on her training
and duties in Odin's realm. The last thing she expects or wants is more
adventure—but then treachery, a shocking abduction and a chilling discovery
send her forth on another perilous, globe-hopping mission.
As the ultimate battle, Ragnarok, draws closer,
it's a race against time for Bryn, Fenrir and their team to discover who
kidnapped her foster brother from the halls of Asgard and what's causing the
mysterious deaths of so many of Odin's chosen warriors.
In the exciting sequel to DEAD RADIANCE, Bryn
encounters dwarfs and dragons, new friends and old foes—but the worst enemy of
all may be the person she trusts most!

"My
wings.
They’d
