Woodcutter – Krystle Able
Wicked
Radiance - KZ Riley
They said
there was a girl. A girl with hair the color of lilacs. Swaying in the breeze,
casting its floral scent about.
Eyes the
color of the brightest rubies the world had ever seen, singeing your soul when
their gaze was set upon you.
Skin that
looked like the finest china, as if a single touch would crumble the porcelain
to the ground.
She may
look fragile, but she was anything but.
She was
fierce. Independent. And our only salvation.
Her soul
must combine with the six. Together, they will reign. Together, they will bring
salvation.

Jennie L.
Morris
As a self-proclaimed Anglophile and research
geek, it's no wonder that Jennie L. Morris writes Romance and Historical
Fiction with a flair for realism. Her love for learning led to obtaining
degrees in Anthropology and Biology, which she often relies on during her
writing process. Coming from NE Ohio, and raised on a small beef cattle farm,
life was anything but ordinary growing up.
Jennie now
resides in rural Kentucky, among the bluegrass and dazzling horse farms, with
her amazing husband and their boxer Archie. When she isn’t reading or writing,
she is feeding her tea obsession or perfume addiction, letting the scents and
flavors fuel her creative fires.

KZ Riley
KZ Riley is
29 years old and lives near Lubbock, Texas where the wind blows constantly. She
has been married to her husband for 7 years and they have two daughters
together. She has been an avid reader for as long as she can remember and
recently took that love to the next level. First, it started by being an ARC and
BETA reader for authors, then she began her own review page to let others know
of amazing books she was reading, and finally she came to the ultimate outcome:
an author yourself. For several years, she played with the idea of writing a
story and even jotted down notes and storylines, but never had the courage to
finish and publish it. It was with the help from the Penned in Ink group that
she put her fears aside and decided to go for it.
Hopefully
you enjoy the awesomeness she has brought you and you will be kind enough to
leave a review on Amazon and/or Goodreads.
Thanks so
much for taking the time to read this story and I hope you will read more from
me in the future.

Lauren
Tisdale
Writing was
not something that Lauren ever thought she’d want to do professionally. After
becoming a mother, she stayed home to care for her son. In between diaper
changes and nap times, Lauren found herself embarking on a journey of
discovering herself through written word; with stories that somehow needed to
be told, and characters who gave her glimpses into new worlds. It was there
that she began her journey in fan fiction writing with a group of friends.
Something sparked and a passion was lit. With many other independent authors as
mentors, she grew and learned all she could to master her skills. What once was
a hobby, led to a passion and then became a dream. Encouraged by her family and
friends, she set out to pursue her writing, finally taking part in National
Novel Writing Month, which brought forth her first novel – Circle of Secrets.
Lauren is
married to her husband of eleven years, Brett. Together they have one son,
Payton and a lab retriever, Meeko. She
calls a small town in south-central Louisiana home. Staying busy is what she's
used to, but it keeps life interesting. She has a severe case of Wanderlust.
