The Summer Prince

                                      

Today I wanted to give a quick mention to the forthcoming release of the Summer Lovin’ anthology books from Omnific Publishing. The books will be released July 1st and will be available until the September 30th with proceeds donated to Save the Ta-Tas during Breast Cancer Awareness month in October.

During my mid-twenties I found a lump in my breast after a self-check. It was small, something I wouldn’t have noticed if I hadn’t been looking. I spent a few days pretending it wasn’t there and eventually told my sister-in-law and sought a specialist. Fortunately it turned out to be nothing serious but many women are not so fortunate.

I wrote The Summer Prince specially for the YA anthology. I would describe it as a hint of sleeping beauty combined with a healthy dose of celtic lore and true love.

On the eve of her sixteenth birthday, Niamh sneaks out to attend the festival of Beltaine. Not long into the celebration she encounters a mysterious young man named Regan. When Niamh has to choose between running deeper into a dark forest with a supernatural creature that shouldn’t exist or facing an unknown threat chasing her, Niamh discovers she will have to rethink everything she knows about the Fae.
