About the author

Lucy True writes quirky urban fantasy and paranormal romance. She also writes lesbian romance as Jea Hawkins.
She is a gamer, lover of history, as well as strange and whimsical things. There should probably be an “I Brake for Cemeteries” bumper sticker on her car. A passionate genealogist, long-time cross-stitcher, and kitchen witch, she lives in a one-horse town in rural eastern Nebraska with her sometimes-better half, two witchlings, two cats, and a very loquacious caique.

If you’d like some sapphic romance with modern day Wiccan magic and beautiful faerie courts - with a dose of adventure - this is the book for you! Lucy True sure knows how to create beautiful worldbuilding with such enchanting descriptions. Oh and sweet romance, of course!

I wanted to love it but it felt under written. All the right ideas are there but I was left with too many questions and very few answers.
