A Path of Storms and Reckonings

The Silverblood Brotherhood wants Raven dead. Even the law of the land allows their doctrine to dictate her fate. It's beginning to look like letting the Brotherhood win may be the only way to protect those she loves.If only she could change the laws that currently deny her protection. But to do that, she would need to evade the Silverblood hunters long enough to gain the favor of a king. A daunting task for someone who still hasn't figured out the complexities of social expectations. With her life hanging in the balance, it might still be worth trying.

Writing fantasy and science fiction stories has been a lifelong passion for her. She loves to draw upon her myriad life experiences, doing everything from wild cave exploration and competitive horseback endurance riding to practicing iaido and archery.
