Paranormal Women's Fiction, Urban Fantasy, and Fairy Tale Retellings with a Modern Twist
I loved writing the story, but in the back of my head, I held doubts. I wondered if anyone would want to read a forty-five year old woman becoming an action hero. The thought only women my age might read and enjoy the story, but it wouldn’t appeal to a wider audience.

Nothing like waking up to a good cup of coffee and a nightmare. A spider the size of a corgi skittered in my direction across the linoleum of the kitchen floor.

The heroine was our best self with ideal qualities. No one is meant to live up to the standard of a heroine.
