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.
A nice quick read. Wish these books were each a bit longer instead of so many but they are good. They have adventure and friendship and the characters are relatable in their own ways.
Evie, Asher and Elanden are finally rid of the witch that was keeping them captive and had devised a plan to sell them against a posted bounty to mercenaries, thus bypassing any possible retributions from their royal parents. With the help of the 6 years old Freya, the witches' slave, they have killed the witch and taken Freya to the nearest village and next stop on their quest itinerary.
Once they arrive at the time when they must leave, they find a great home with loving parents for Freya and say their tear filled goodbyes to the young child with the promise that they will be back to see her soon.
Just outside the village, they are caught in a freak storm and invited into a shelter by what appears to be a kind older gentleman. He will play an important role in this period of their lives where they three will not age but others will.
The biggest surprised is being rescued by unrecognizable but close acquaintances. Consequently they will, now, be 5 travelling together and romances will start to form.
This great author has written a sequel to the first and second books of this series (discipline) and (Bravery), that is filled with challenge after challenge as well as disturbing news and a certain amount of resentment,by others for the trio and the young teenage Fae prince in particular. As if the suspense wasn't enough, she adds witches and sorcerers, undead creatures ( not of the vampire kind) , into the mix, seasoned with bounty hunters to stimulate the reader's appetite and succeeds in creating this action filled series third book that quickly becomes a page turner and that I highly recommend as well as rate with 5 Stars.
