Change is Coming
The night her family came under attack changed Kangee forever.
Weeks later, her mother is still missing and is feared dead--until in dreams
Kangee connects with her mother and learns that her mother is trapped with an
evil spirit named Ardong. Kangee is a SpiritWalker, but one without many of the
gifts and talents of her people yet she is the one chosen to save her mother.
How can she, a foolish daydreamer, possibly save her mother?
She turns to a young shaman for help.
Night Warrior refuses to accept his calling as Shaman. He is a DreamWalker who knows the danger of
wielding too much power. Ambushed and
left for dead, Night Warrior would have died had it not been for the
SpiritWalker who saved his life and in doing so, has given him the same
abilities. Now wields more power than he'd ever imagined. When dreams connect him to Kangee he can no
longer fight his destiny.
But Evil lurks in the shadows, just a dream away. Night Warrior and Kangee embark on a
dangerous quest filled with love, passion, fear and hope. Can they find the courage to defeat Ardong,
free Kangee’s mother and accept their place in the world as The Choosen? Could the answers lie in their dreams?
Autumn Dreams will take you into a world filled with beauty and
darkness and a love that goes beyond this world.
Excerpt:
Unable
to stop herself, Kangee watched Tatonga. The woman ate and talked. Talked and
ate. She looked as though those two activities were her favorite pastimes, she
thought. An elbow in her ribs from her sister made her sigh. “I didn’t say a
word,” she grumbled.
“Didn’t have to. You reveal your thoughts on
your face,” Blaze said.
Kangee
huffed out a breath. Eat, she told herself. Ignore them. But when Tatonga
shifted so that her knee touched Night Warriors, Kangee clenched her teeth She
was tempted to drop a whirling wind over the woman and fling her deep into the
forest.
She
sighed and pushed her food around with her finger. No matter how tempting the
image, she would not give in. Not because it was a misuse of her power and not
even because her grandmother sat to one side of the couple. It was her own
innate sense of fairness.
It
wasn’t the woman’s fault that Night Warrior was Kangee’s Spirit mate. The woman
believed she had rights regarding Night Warrior. And maybe she did. Kangee
glared at Night Warrior. Given any bit of encouragement, she might be tempted
to let the wind toss him somewhere deep in the forest as well.
As
though reading her mind, Grandmother glanced over, her wise eyes sharp as the
tip of an arrow and just as deadly with their piercing stare. Kangee kept
herself from squirming. She’d done nothing wrong. Yet.
To
her surprise, Grandmother smiled, winked, and then gave a tiny flick of her
finger, so slight that Kangee almost missed it.
The
sharp pop of fire sent a shower of sparks high into the air. Kangee’s eyes
widened when a slight shift in the air sent the hot sparks toward Tatonga who
was leaning over Night Warrior, so close, all he had to do was put his arm
around her to embrace her.
AUTHOR
INFORMATION:
SUSAN EDWARDS resides in California with her husband
of thirty + years. She love animals and has five cats include a pair of
two-year-old kittens (they are her babies) as well as two adorable Chiweenie
pups named JJ and Abbey. The four youngsters in the pet department make her
smile, laugh and sometimes groan each and every day. Recently, she got
temporary (ha!) custody of Shasta, her daughter’s three year old, Great
Pyrenees.
Susan also enjoys crafts of all sorts including
quilting, sewing, cross-stitch and knitting. Knitting and crochet are her
current passions. She is also an avid gardener. Through her love of all things
Native American, she designed a 26-foot Medicine Wheel Garden. It’s a big
project but one that she loves, except when the weeds threaten. Right now, it’s
uncertain who is winning this war!
You can follow her progress on her website. Camping,
fishing, biking and hiking (when not hot) are other outdoor pursuits she and
her husband enjoy.
She is of course, an avid reader and hates cooking and
housework. While writing, she listens to a wide variety of music, including
Neil Diamond, Celtic, Native American, New Age, Classical, and mood music
(bagpipes and howling wolves drive my family nuts). Her current favorites are
Blackmore’s Night and David Lanz.
