“Welcome home, Lady Astiria.”
He
smiled,
his grin almost wolfish and predatory.
“I love the wavy sable hair and look forward to exploring this new body at my leisure…”
Relief flowed through her and she sighed as she realized how she looked really didn’t matter to Lerik either way.
“I kept the stripper boobs as my quest reward, I hope you don’t mind.”
His grin widened.
“I think I finally understand what these stripper boobs are, and I’m most happy with your decision.
Finally, she was totally accepted for her real self—body, mind and soul—okay, along with some perkier boobs.
She laughed out loud.
She was home.
“I look forward to a very leisurely exploration of each other.
For the next seventy or eighty years?”
Lerik rumbled a laugh.
“Here in Verrath, that is just the honeymoon period, my love.
We have centuries ahead of us.”
Then his lips covered hers and she lost herself in her very own Fantasy Quest.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
As far back as I can remember
,
I've had a love affair with books. I loved to live vicariously through each character, and dreamed of the day when I'd write my own books. I loved to write and make up stories, a talent which was both loved and hated by many of my English teachers. As I got older, I had teachers encourage me to write, but they admonished me to ‘stop writing the weird stuff and tone down the sarcasm!' But what fun is that?
However, my other love was music, and playing clarinet and saxophone ended up paying my way through college by way of a scholarship. As is often the case, life happened and I didn't get back to writing until 2003, when my husband and son encouraged me to ‘stop talking about it, and go do it!' So, I joined my local Romance Writers of America chapter and poured myself into learning everything I could about writing and publishing, and both the business and creative side of being a writer.
I worked hard, and in ten months wrote
Into A Dangerous Mind
, and set about the business of submitting and entering contests while I moved on to writing
Stone Maiden
. I entered dozens of contests and rewrote and revised that book several dozen times. I also received tons of great rejections from both agents and editors. Yes - you read right - Great rejections. Most of them saying, "
we
really liked your story, but it has the following weaknesses..." With every one, I refined and rewrote and learned everything I could. Then in October 2004, I received the fateful ‘call.' Okay, it was an email, but thus began one of the best chapters in my life. Since then, I've hit the ground running and never looked back. I also write under the pen name Cassie Ryan.
I currently live in sunny
Arizona
with my two favorite men--my husband and my son--and our two cats.
