Acknowledgments
My BETA group, Kimbra’s Canvas Crew, did a fantastic job on this read. I had a lot of apprehensions about the book, and they’ve eased them all. I cannot express how much they mean to me. You guys are so awesome.
To my followers who are a part of Magic and Mason Jars, my reader group, your enthusiasm for my work keeps me going. You don’t know how much your kind words mean to me. I am humbled. Thank you so much for reading.
To Tabitha. I’m never afraid to spill out my ideas to you. Thank you for the endless discussion about plot, names, and other ridiculousness. I couldn’t ask for a better friend or unpaid personal assistant. One day, I’ll keep my promise.
To Jeff and Maleia. The last few weeks have been tiring. From starting big girl school to losing a first tooth, I love watching our daughter grow up. I love you, Jeff. You are my phoenix, bard, and jaguar shapeshifter all rolled into one.
From early in life Kimbra Swain was indoctrinated in the ways of geekdom. Raised on Star Wars, Tolkien, Superheroes and Voltron, she found herself immersed in a world of imagination. She started writing in high school, and completed her English degree from the University of Alabama in 2003.
Her writing is influenced by a gamut of authors including Jane Austen, J.R.R. Tolkien, L.M. Montgomery, Timothy Zahn, Kathy Reichs, Kevin Hearne and Jim Butcher.
Born and raised in Alabama, Kimbra still lives there with her husband and 5-year-old daughter. When she isn't reading or writing, she plays PC games, makes jewelry and builds cars.
