Here's a sneak peak of Shadow and Thorn, book four of The Andari Chronicles: Prologue Darkness was her world. Darkness and silence. There was nothing and no one to break the silence, for she was alone, and when she was alone, she had neither ears nor voice. So deep was the darkness, that she had begun to wonder if there had ever been anything else.

Here's a sneak peak of Pirouette, book three of The Andari Chronicles: Prologue Princess Ilani Rohin Adayan could not sit still.

Here's a sneak peak of Traitor's Masque, book one of The Andari Chronicles: Prologue No expense was spared, at least not where anyone could see. Black velvet shrouded the gold-inlaid casket, cloaked the silent forms of the pallbearers, and muffled the hooves of the matched sable cobs that drew the funeral caisson.
