Dear Readers,
While I’m aware that what I’m about to share will make some
of you very angry, I hope it will make most of you very happy.
I have decided to set Forlaith’s story aside until I have
the time to give her her very own novel (maybe even a series). I wish I could
say that I will drop everything and hammer out this novel in record time, but,
sadly, that is not the case. I cannot, in good consciousness, neglect my
on-going projects.
In the hopes of tiding you over, consider checking out Torn (Book one of the Dothan Chronicles), which will be released December 20th. Torn takes place in the same universe as A New Lineage. Eventually, characters from one book series will appear in the other, though I suspect only the die-hard fans will catch these slight cross-overs. I guarantee, if you like Forlaith, you will love Bethany.
Here is a little idea of what you will find in the pages of
Torn:
King Wolfric Eberhand battles the last nation to stand
against his raging armies. With help from the deadly knight, Sir Erin Caldry,
he hopes to conquer the land of Dothan once and for all. Using his wealth and
power, he has formulated the perfect plan to finally take their rich land. What
he doesn't realize, is the youngest Dothan princess is currently a slave within
his very own castle walls.
While out visiting the remote estate of a relative, Princess
Bethany Kavadh is kidnapped by slavers. Bedraggled and weary, she finds herself
sold into slavery. To her horror, she soon discovers that her new owner is none
other than her family’s worst enemy, King Wolfric. To fight her rising despair
and to keep what little sanity she possess, Princess Bethany begins to fight
back, sabotaging the efficient running of the House and function of their
Armies.
But what happens when they realize her true identity?
Will they ransom her for the wealth of her nation?
Will they keep her as a slave? Or will they inflict an even
crueler punishment?
The only things for certain are: The war between two nations
will escalate, and one young princess's life shall forever be TORN.
