Surrender: A tangled web of love, magic and good vs evil.

by T.L. Stevens (Illustrator)

Realizing she and Rose aren't the only ones held within the locket's curse, was just the beginning; with each passing day Ally discovers how complex the world around her is. Before long, there’s a small part of Ally that finds this new mystical world exhilarating; however, finding a way out of her captivity remains her deepest desire.

Traveling to other places in time, Ally is able to witness Edmund and Helene’s young love and uncovers how widespread the curse has become. No longer fearing the unknown, she willingly learns as much as she can, until one day a very real and unexpected danger reveals itself. Adding to her fear, she’s told Edmund has a proposal for her.

What more could he take from her? Does she have a choice or will she ultimately have to surrender her very soul?

About the author

Mrs. Stevens grew up constantly asking her parents “Why?” causing her dad to repeatedly ask her if she was writing a book. Well, after all these years the answer to that all too familiar question is “yes.” As a mother of four she put her inquisitive mind and imagination to good use. The creative writing classes she took for fun helped her come up with bedtime stories for her children. When the stories blossomed into family favorites she began sharing them with friends and neighbors. She was thrilled when neighbors would show up unexpectedly wanting to borrow a story for their children’s bedtime. As her children grew Mrs. Stevens ventured from cute bedtime stories to ones that were better suited for older children.
Many years later and after some prompting from a friend she entered a short story in a writing contest. When the story was selected as a winner she decided to expand upon the story creating her first published books “The Legend of Dalton Manor Series.” After years of writing for family and friends Mrs. Stevens is thrilled to share her stories worldwide.
Who would have thought that the sometimes-annoying little girl, full of unending questions would grow up to do exactly what her dad had asked her countless times? How she wishes her dad was alive to see it become a reality.
