"Her fingers flew to the fey butterfly tattooed on the back of her neck. Her friend, Yasaman, had designed it for her when she finished grad school. It was her symbol of freedom. Sorcha never wanted to be a professor bound to lecture halls—all she ever craved were the wild places and their stories. Now she was deep inside Ruairí's story. Sometimes the butterfly brought her joy; other times, inspiration . . . but always a sense of hope. And she needed all three in this moment for her heart was breaking to see her man so broken."

À propos de l'auteur

W. L. Hawkin writes the kind of books she loves to read from her home in the Pacific Northwest. Because she's a genre-blender, you might find crime, mystery, romance, suspense, fantasy, adventure, and even time travel, interwoven into her stories.

The LGBTQ urban fantasy books-To Charm a Killer, To Sleep with Stones, To Render a Raven, To Kill a King, and To Dance with Destiny-follow Estrada, a free-spirited, bisexual magician and coven high priest as he endeavors to save his family and friends while sorting through his own personal issues. Her latest release, Lure: Jesse & Hawk, was a recipient of a National Indie Excellence Award, a Crowned Heart Review from InD'Tale Magazine, a Gold Reader's Choice Award from E-connections Magazine, and was a finalist in The Wishing Shelf UK Book Awards. Lure is small-town romantic suspense story set in the American Midwest in the fictional town of Lure River and is layered with Indigenous mystery and spirituality.Watch for an upcoming book where she teaches her intuitive writing process. Writing with your Muse: a Guide to Creative Inspiration. Wendy completed a BA in Indigenous Studies at Trent University, and later, Post-Baccalaureate Diplomas in Humanities and a Teaching Certificate at Simon Fraser University, Canada. Fascinated by her Celtic and Tuscarora ancestry, she explores history, myth, and spirituality in her work. She's a published blogger, a regular reviewer with the Ottawa Review of Books, and an Indie publisher with Blue Haven Press.
