Produktbeschreibung

In the quiet, herb-scented village of Whisperhearth, Elowen Thorne, a fiercely capable apothecary with a black leather wardrobe and a wolf companion named Shadow, lives a life of routine and remedy. She brews tinctures, tends her garden, and helps villagers with everything from headaches to heartbreaks. But when she unearths a long-buried box bearing her grandmother's mark, Elowen awakens secrets woven beneath the soil, secrets that echo with old magic, forgotten names, and warnings about the sealed well behind her apothecary.

As whispers rise, strange visitors arrive, and old companions return, Elowen is drawn into a quiet unraveling, where ritual scars, cryptic notes, and ancestral memories blur the line between healer and guardian. With each passing day, the land itself seems to remember what was once buried... and why it should have stayed that way.

Blending gentle humor, lush botanical detail, and a rich tapestry of village life, Frost and Firelight in the Garden is a cozy, creeping mystery about inheritance, resilience, and the roots that hold and haunt us.

Autorenporträt

I was born in Canon City, Colorado, to Irish/Scottish parents, grew up in Canon City and Texas, now living in Florida for the last eleven years. My first book, "Arkadia a Druid's Tale," was published on March 1st, 2010. I love to write since I was 14 years of age but never thought myself good enough. When I met a man that encouraged me to fulfill my dreams at the age of 32 and still encourages me to move forward with my new works of art. Now I have the sequel to Arkadia and two others published. I hope you all will enjoy them.

When I'm asked if I write about myself, I have to sit back and try not to laugh. I was told that since my characters carry my pen name that my readers think it is about me.

The truth is, I write under my characters' name since she is the one who is really writing the book. I'm just her instrument of use. The one that allows her to write through me. Now you might think I'm crazy, but I can assure you, I'm just as sane as everyone else. I don't want people to know my real name. Those who do already think I have lost my ever-loving mind.

My family seems to think I should write successful conclusions, where the hero or heroine lives happily ever after. Yet that is not me. I want to write about good/evil, happiness/devastation. I want it where my readers are crying with the characters when they are happy or sad. I want them to want to do murder when the bad guy is out to harm another. I want my readers to cheer when the characters finally have a happy time and things have gone their way.

That is who I am. The kind of writer I want to be. So yes I hide behind my main character. I use her to keep me safe.
