(The Prairies Book Review *****) "Original and creative … a compelling story… a celebration of feminine power… this story will stay with readers long after the final page."

What happens when your life’s training is about “duty” and then the very foundations of your life are taken away?

Ellen’s courageous, impetuous, a dreamer, and not very ambitious. Her father, Si’Empra’s elected ruler, dies and her brother takes his place. He’s brutal and abusive. She escapes from him into the mountains, determined to find another life for herself. But it only takes a few weeks to discover there’s no such thing as freedom for her. She’s tightly bound to the symbiotic relationships that keep Si’Empra from disappearing. She’s young. She thinks fixing at least one problem will help – a bit. Instead, she plunges Si’Empra and herself into a dark downward spiral, which only she can put to rights … or can she?

Songs of Si'Empra

Skyseeker's Princess: Escape does not spell freedom

“...Enchanting… It was difficult to put the book down.” — Patrick Gilbert-Roberts, author of The Intervention

With a relaxing and peaceful winter behind her, Ellen is looking forward to the promise of summer—but her peace doesn’t last. An earthquake rips fatally through her friends’ home and Ellen is left with the grief from their loss. The Lianthem, a sacred ruling group, is profiting from her brother’s lunacy and her little sister is in danger. While her companions come within a breath of freezing to death, battles between rival factions break out, killing hundreds. And it’s all her fault. Ellen knows she must make it right, but how?

In book two of Songs of Si’Empra, Ellen is faced with the stark reality of leadership and she must decide, once and for all, who she really is.

She’s oblivious to Norm Tucker’s designs for revenge till too late.

In book three of the Songs of Si’Empra series, an era comes to an end to make way for a new one that’s full of excitement and energy. Not everyone is destined to step into that sunny future.
