Ready for a NEW series with the Kerrigan kids and gang?
Chronicles of a Misspent Youth (jokingly named after Gabriel's future autobiography) is going to show us the story from Aria's side, while tossing in some of Kraigan's crazy, unpredictable nature in the mix… stay tuned for more adventure, more laughs and more Kerrigan!
Be careful what you wish for…it just might come true.
Aria Wardell was at the top of her game. She had a husband who adored her, the superpowers of a young (and slightly reckless) goddes, and was shooting like a meteor to the top of the Privy Council mission rotation. There was a new legacy in the making. Everything was going exactly according to plan…until someone new came along. Someone who gave her a title she never expected.
Mom.
After the showdown in the jungle, the supernatural community is in need of repair. The knights and the council are at each other's throats, the detention cells are bursting at the seams, and the leader of the mysterious shadow organization is still in the wind. With the future hanging in the balance, the PC's best and brightest are called in from all over the world. But for the first time, Aria isn't on the list. Instead of charging into the action like everyone else, she's forced to wait on the sidelines.
Not able to help, not able to walk away. Not able to do much of anything…until one morning, there's a knock on her door. Uncle Kraigan has come for a visit.
And he's got a plan all of his own…

Wanita May grew up in the fruit belt of Ontario - St.Catharines. Crazy-happy childhood, she always has had a vivid imagination and loads of energy.
The youngest of six -- four older brothers, and a sister -- taught her at a young age to be competitive in all aspects of life.
At sixteen, she began competing in athletics (track and field) and before she turned seventeen, she was representing Canada in high jump. She continued to compete, breaking Canada's JR High Jump record (1.92m - 6' 3 1/2" for those metric-ly challenged). She attented University of Toronto, and Kansas State University - winning CIAU's and becoming All-American 6x - NCAA Indoors Runner Up + more.
But you're not interested in her athletic career - unless of course you're curious to know she stands 1.70m (5'7") and has jumped 20cm over her head on more than one occassion. She's represented Canada at the World Championships, World Jrs., won Francophone Games, and loved every minute of every competition. From the grueling workouts, the crazy weights she lifted on her back, the days she thought her lungs were going to spit out of her mouth for lack of oxygen, the travelling around the world and the opportunity to read - her favourite past time.
Life continued with her husband (a distance runner from Liverpool, UK, who she met at KSU) and then their first, then second and finally third child. Their house became full of more imagination and stories.
Wanita and her husband run an online business, dealing in antiques and collectables - particularly jewelry and porcelain (one of the business' website: www.wadeincanada.com ).
After her father passed away in 2009, from a six-year battle with cancer (which she still believes he won the fight against), she began to write again. A passion she'd loved for years, but realized life was too short to keep putting it off.
Her first book, Rae of Hope - from the Chronicles of Kerrigan - will be available October 2011 by kNight Romance Publishing.
She is currently represented by Dawn Dowdle of Blue Ridge Literary Agency. Wanita is a writer of Young Adult, Fantasy Fiction and where ever else her little muses take her.
My rating is not for the book itself because I always love the quick, fun stories in this series. The rating is for the editing. I have found editing errors in several books, but this one seemed to have blatant errors in many chapters, some to the point of re-reading to make sense of the line. The stories are always humorous and fun, but please clean up editing.
