Peaches & Honey

Both epic and intimate, These Immortal Truths is a powerful and romantic historical fantasy that explores not only what it means to live forever, but what it means to live fully. A shapeshifting god. A divine peach. And a woman gifted with forever. Anna is used to hunger and hardship. Ever since the pale shadows on her skin were mistaken for leprosy, she has lived alone in exile, each day focused only on survival. Then a single act of kindness towards a beautiful stranger changes her life forever. Suddenly, her body is as untouched by time as it is by harm, and Anna experiences a new freedom she has never known. But as decades and centuries pass, the lives of everyone she meets slip through her fingers like grains of sand… everyone, except Khiran-the shapeshifting god who gave her immortality. No matter the years or distance, she trusts that he will always return. Yet there is more to immortality than Anna knows, and as she travels the ages, she will discover the beauty-and danger-of a life without end.

These days, she loves writing heart tugging stories that use magical elements to highlight the human ones. When she isn't agonizing over word choices, she's usually reading, drowning in home projects, or playing with yarn. She is a Trigiminal Neuralgia survivor and believes in living your best life day by day.
