I ran up Shephard's Mountain to escape the Monsters that were chasing me...

...and the Demons that were haunting my memories.

Instead, I fell into a world where Magic is the New Black and the Challenges I face have nothing to do with curling irons and study groups.

Drae Hallow is the home of Rule 9 Academy where nobody is normal and we're all a little bit of strange.

They've invited me to attend their School for Magicals. Apparently, there's something inside of me and it wants to come out to play. But I need to learn to control it before it controls me.

I'm game...

After all, I might be my Momma's trouble; but I've always been my Daddy's stubborn.

I'll need every bit of it too, because something else roams the woods after dark, and it doesn't have anything to do with Shifting 101.

Together, with the help of others just like me, we'll have to uncover the lies before it's too late. The Magical world depends on us to find out the truth...or its Lights Out, Dark Ages and Witch Hunts all over again.

If I'm not careful, my first semester might just be my last.


Fire Born Dragon will resonate with fans of BR Kingsolver and G.K. DeRosa...

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

When I was a child I wanted two things. To Write a Novel and to be Wonder Woman and save the world.

Somewhere past 40, I realized the tights were never going to fit, and the only flying I was ever going to do was in a plane.

So instead, I write my Strong and Sassy Heroes/Heroines into the novels I pen…

I build doorways into contemporary worlds filled with magic, that allow all of us to be a hero to our own imaginations.

To me, every character is real. I walk alongside them as they discover that fear is the flip side of courage, that survival may just be a badge of honor, and that our flaws are an opportunity to emerge stronger and discover our own personal brand of superpowers—at any age.

I live in the heart of Michigan with my Fastidious Husband and a Feisty Yorkie named Napoleon. When I’m not penning the adventures in my next book, you can find me kayaking, hiking, and camping with my family and friends.

I loved the character development in the story. The story begins with a very believable teenage girl behaving poorly due to circumstances out of her control. We see the same young lady grow and mature through her experiences and her new friendships. The author uses descriptive exciting writer’s craft to reel her audience in. The novel grabs your attention from the beginning and continues at a fast pace with many twists to keep you guessing what will happen next. I can’t wait to begin the next book in the series.

Take an angsty teenage girl, combine that with magic and a crossbow, and you have the makings of an excellent story. There are a wide variety of unusual characters, some of which are still unknowns at the end of the first book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing New Series! Can't wait For the Next!
Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2020
Verified Purchase
This book was amazing. The author has created a world where magic and the mundane live side by side. While it was a little slow starting, e.g. the author spending a little too much time on trees and bushes, it does pick up quickly and takes you on an interesting side of everyday life mixed in with adventure. While there was a little too little talk of dragons I realize that the author did this to build suspense and to drive the story forward. The mystery that exists is interesting and keeps the reader guessing.

I eagerly await the next.

I was given this book by the author for free and am gladly giving my unbiased opinion.

This book has everything I love. It has Magic, Mystery, and young people trying to find themselves. I could not stop reading. The young lady is trying to understand her parents divorce, a move across country, and why she has always been "different." There are Monsters hurting animals and people that add to the Mystery. If you buy this book you will not be disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good gracious, learn grammar and punctuation!
Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2020

This is a run of the mill academy story. It's rife with poor grammar and bad punctuation ...especially possessives. Omg . I found it really basic, common tropes that were heavy handed. I am halfway through and strugvling to keep going, because it's a bit Mary Sue-ish and boring. Nothing is really awful, but not really great, either. Ymmv, but don't expect Harry Potter.

This is an excellent book with a wonderful plot - good versus evil. The characters are quirky and entertaining yet struggle with real life issues, parent’s divorce and difficult kids at school. So good, you can’t wait for the next book.

I am really enjoying these books and am up to number 4. The characters and world are quirky and fun. My only complaint is editing. Please learn to use the possessive apostrophe, capital letter placement and use of quotation marks. These errors irritate an otherwise pleasant experience.

The start was not auspicious, but once other characters were introduced it became a fast, enjoyable read. The conflict between mother and daughter was handled well at the end.

Enemies to lovers, friendships, family dynamics, secrets, powers, magic, betrayal, battles, loss, lies, fear, paranormal, and so much more embodies this amazing story. It has you so engrossed from the from the beginning straight to the end. It keeps you turning pages eager to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series to find out what happens next in this story.

This book started out reasonably well, but went quickly downhill. It's in great need of a proof reader and editor. It's a shame because the story is good.If I tried to list all the things that are wrong with the writing I'd still be here by Christmas! I gave up. Life's too short to spend it reading such rubbish.
