About the author

Theolyn Boese

7 books79 followers
The name Theolyn Boese is a pen name with a bit of history behind it. Theolyn, pronounced Thay-o-lyn, is my great grandmothers middle name on my mothers side of the family. The closest we've come to finding a definition is "divine lightning" or "power/ruler of the lake/pool/waterfall." It is Old English, but mom's family is from Norway. Boese, pronounced Bay-zee, is my grandmothers maiden name on my fathers side. Dad's family is a tad more colorful. They are from Germany and his grandfather told him that one of the definitions is 'bad'. *grin* From the stories I've heard over the years it is very fitting.

I live in Oregon in the Columbia River Gorge. I started writing when I was in the fourth grade. I was taking special education courses to help me with my dyslexia when my primary teacher decided to have a talented and gifted class for poetry. My S.E. teacher thought it would be good for me and stuck me in it as well. It surprised everyone, including myself, when I took off with it. I've been writing ever since.

I have a Border Collie named Fuzzbutt, two cats, Goblyn and Wisp and assorted freshwater snails and guppies.

So far I really like the heroine.She packs a mean punch...literally.She is also largely misunderstood by nearly everyone and its great to see how those friendships and relationships start to develop. The 1st H is sweet and caring and I have to say I don't blame him for his anger towards the h. The 2nd H is very interesting.Jury's still out on that one! The mixture of Greek mythology and various religions is seemlessly combined to make this story a well thought out read so far. I am so curious to see what happens next...I think I am sensing a reincarnation in here somewhere....hmmm?

I really enjoyed this story.

I would recommend this story/series. For those that get offended with multiple partners this is not for you.

I liked how Ruri learned to grow as a person. She is a strong woman and needed time to deal with the changes that were forced on her. I liked how Kiger gave her that time and still be there for her.

BOOK THREE IN THE TA'E'SHA SERIES

Ruri a friend of Thea from books one and two has been very mean to her mate well she was stolen from earth. Her mate was advised not to take her since she had family but he wanted her so now she kicks his ass on a regular basis. She has oriental lineage and knows martial arts and woops up on his ass daily or when he tries to speak or touch her...

He loves her but is done'.... when she finally comes around to wanting him she walk in to find him with another lover after all she did tell him to find someone else....

So now she is hurt, she finds her lover blindfolded and making love a second time in her bed!!
His new lover tricked him thinking Ruri would join them 'was the excuse'

but it did not work out that way now Ruri's mate is alone no more lover no Ruri.

Hadri comes to Ruri and begs for her help this society mates come in 2, 3, and 4's or more.. I will not tell more.. Ruri is also a wicca witch and her white snow leopard speaks to her mate. He is shocked when the cat speaks to him and he speaks back seems the Goddess and Godd of her religion has plans for them all...

short read but good story, not as exciting as all the others in this series
