THE SEVEN STONES by C. P. Goy
THE SEVEN STONES
C. P. Goy
"This book had everything a fiction book should have: realistic characters, vivid description, and exceptional cliffhangers. I found myself wanting to keep reading chapter after chapter until the very end."

FORGET-HER-NOTS
Amy Brecount White

"Forget-Her-Nots was a great read with a wonderfully original premise. I loved learning about the Victorian language of flowers and what each variety was thought to mean - the feelings and behavior it might provoke."
Jen Nadol
author of The Mark
