A demented twin sister, a demon hijacking her powers, and a mysterious journal filled with more questions than answers—Halen needs her Guardian Dax more than ever. But if she confides in Dax, she fears he will never forgive her, not after all he sacrificed to help her vanquish Asair. Halen drowned Asair in a tornado of wings—at least, she thought she killed him. Why then does his mocking voice snake through her thoughts, enticing her to surrender her power?

Her life in balance, Halen must race time, purge the demon's soul before flames consume the Earth or the Tari strike first.

My Publishing Journey or How I Became a Published Author

I started writing with the intent of publishing eight years ago. I faced a lot of rejection letters, but I kept submitting and writing, until I received my first contract for Surface and the sequel Landlocked. Unfortunately, my publisher closed just before the second book was about to be released and I had to start over. So, instead of resubmitting Surface, I wrote Coral & Bone and decided to go indie.
There are pros and cons to both methods. Some writers are choosing a blended method and I think that's a great way to go. If you can find this go for it! I've loved every bit of the indie publishing process, but you need a good team behind you. I was fortunate to have a great team of women working on Coral & Bone and Curses & Ash. In the end, whether a writer goes with a publishing contract or indie it's the readers that matter the most. I have the most amazing support from my readers and the book bloggers who share my work. Connecting with readers all over the world is the true magic that comes out of being a published author.
