Here’s the set-up:
A captivating debut that promises to delight general readers and fantasy fans alike. Magic, adventure, mystery, romance… Gift of the Phoenix does not disappoint.
A prince is murdered.
An island sinks into the sea.
A thousand-year-old ritual foretells great evil.
A nation’s fate rests in the hands of three strangers, thrust together by their common destiny to protect the Phoenix, and their world, from destruction. The Three must learn to unite in spite of what separates them, and unlock the magic of three stones that seem to harm as much as they help.
Their journey leads through unexpected doors. Along the way they encounter a cursed people, a haunting vision, a woman on the run.
It all begins and ends with the gift of the Phoenix.
5-Star Amazon Reviews
“The story of three characters brought together not by choice but fate needing to overcome their misgivings and lack of faith in each other as they puzzle together the mysteries of the phoenix and the threat that threatens them all. This book was great it kept me guessing. The characters felt real in their interactions with one another. I was constantly trying to guess where the book would take me next. It was a wonderful journey.”
“This is one of the very best books I have read in a long time. The story line, characters, and locations are established in a manner more indicative of a long established fantasy writer. I look forward to reading more from this writer, she is extremely talented. If you read this book, you will want more.”

She fell in love with the whimsy and adventure of the genre and began working on Gift of the Phoenix shortly thereafter.

A related novella, Nashua’s Choice is set to release in April 2013.
