Here's the set-up:
*This is a novelette that introduces you to Madly*
Madly is your average nearly-eighteen year old girl—for a princess, that is.
Madly
James is thoroughly enjoying her internship in the small town of
Slumber when the unthinkable happens—there’s a prison break in Atlas,
the magically-protected home of Madly’s race. A traitor has set free
eight Lore, the spirits of what humans know as fairy tales, and they are
making their way to Slumber to awaken their descendants.
In
order to save her home, the lives of her family, and all of humanity,
Madly must learn to wield her exceptional powers and recapture the Lore
before it’s too late and all is lost. But Madly’s only help are her two
best friends and the Sentinel, Jackson Hamilton, that threatens both her
heart and her destiny. Madly has loved Jackson as long as she can
remember, but he is the one thing even a princess can’t have. Can she
resist love to become the queen she was fated to be? Or can she find a
way to have both?
One Reviewer Notes:
A terrific introduction to a very likable cast of characters. The premise for the books is one that could create a wonderful series. I am so looking forward to reading more about Madly, Aiden, Jersey, and of course Jackson. I recommend this book to anyone who likes an imaginative YA read that is just the start of something I hope will turn out as exciting as it's begun.

About the Author
I was born and raised in the United States, and I've lived in several of the fabulous fifty. Though I currently live in the deep South, I spent much of my childhood up North and hope to return there one day. A few other things about me: I believe that sometimes you have to look really, REALLY hard to find the good in people, but it's there. I believe that I'm shrinking (I swear five years ago I was two inches taller). I believe my husband is quite possibly one of the most amazing men in the entire world (I can't be sure because I haven't met all of them). I believe coffee and chocolate, when combined, could be the basis for world peace. I believe that Jesus rocks and communism doesn't. I believe that white makes me look fat and black collects lint. I believe summer's too hot, winter's too cold and fall was made for football. I like dogs better than cats and the first movie in a trilogy is invariably the best. But most of all, I believe that love conquers all.
