![]() It's time to let you in on a little, well, not-so-little, secret... The Godmother: A Starfire Express Prequel is coming out this July! Whew! The cat's out of the bag! If you've been anxiously waiting for Starfire Express: A Flame of Fae and Fang, I am opening the doors up to this world for you with a full-length novel about the Fairy who started it all: The Godmother.

Are you excited about The Godmother: A Starfire Express Prequel? Ready to learn more? Here's a sneak peek at the blurb: Flames rise on the horizon. The Godmother rises to meet them. Eliza Farrington the Third is the top Fairy Warrior in the universe, undefeated in both magic and physical strength. She is also The Godmother -- the protector and trainer of the Crown Princess. For twenty years, Eliza has prepared her charge to bring change to the rule of terror the tyrannical Fairy King and Queen have inflicted upon the worlds. The Princess's kindness and mercy are already renowned, and her coronation is only a month away. But the Dragon Emperor's legions landing on their doorstep threatens everything. When the Dragon Emperor presents the sole remaining royal Dragon Egg to the Fair Folk with a deadly proposal, can Eliza change the fate of her beloved Princess? Or will the hate of multiple generations snuff out their only flame of hope?
