WHAT WAS THE INSPIRED YOU TO WRITE THIS BOOK:
Well I started writing at the age of 16 as a coping mechanism. I cowrote a book with 2 of my best friend & that one however was just for fun & will never see the light of day. So a little over 10 years later, I was typing it up in my computer (before this it was only on paper), & this story kept bugging me (not really, I love writing) to write it. I took some of the parts I had written over the years & rearrange them, changing name & key components, (now only on the parts I had written!) & this story was born. I have gone on to write 2 novella, short stories & 2 novels that goes with this series & am in the process of writing another. Though as of right now, only this book & the 2 shorts are published.

My blurb can better tell the story Have you ever seen a warrior that was a princess? Or a princess that was a warrior? It’s a thought that is inconceivable to most, but for Renada Silverwing it was who she was. Imprisoned by the Goddess of War for 6 years, Renada Silverwing escaped only to put her home world, Bengal at risk of Damniana’s wrath. Now Renada must journey across Earth to find warriors who are ready and willing to join her in the fight against the Drow Nation. Keeping her real identity hidden is her only choice, because Renada isn’t just a warrior. She’s a princess. And the Goddess of War wants her head.
