The new marketing copy for THE ENDLESS SKIES is he The new marketing copy for THE ENDLESS SKIES is here!! 🔥 What do you think of the changes? 🧐 The heart of the story was always there, but I’m excited to better clue in readers to the stakes and driving forces of the plot. ✨🦁⚔️

“High above the sea, floats the pristine city of the Heliana. Home to winged-lion shapeshifters―the Leonodai―and protected from the world of humans by an elite group of warriors, the Heliana has only known peace.

After years of brutal training, seventeen-year-old Rowan is ready to prove her loyalty to the city and her people to become one of the Leonodai warriors. But before Rowan can take the oath, a deadly disease strikes the city’s children. Soon the warriors―including two of Rowan’s closest friends―are sent on a dangerous mission to find a fabled panacea deep within enemy lands.

Left behind, Rowan learns a devastating truth that could compromise the mission and the fate of the Heliana itself. She must make a decision: stay with the city and become a warrior like she always dreamed, or risk her future in an attempt to save everyone she loves. Whatever Rowan decides, she has to do it fast, because time is running out, and peace can only last so long...”

Ahhh!! I get chillssss, lemme tell ya. Let me know what you think and spread the word! 💛💛💛
“I remember the exact moment I realized I loved “I remember the exact moment I realized I loved her.” 💗 

I’ve teased the swoon-worthy, sharp-witted Ox before: it’s about time we meet sweetheart, I-don’t-know-what-I’m-doing-but-I-have-feelings Callen! 

Callen is Rowan’s childhood friend, the two of them having bonded shortly before Rowan’s father is killed in battle. Callen is a year older than Rowan, and a Warrior who fights with an axe. He’s tactical and patient—a counterpoint to Rowan’s brash impulsivity. For years, she’s just been a friend and confidant. Lately, he’s started to see her as more.

But what of the rumors that Rowan is dating Ox? And what will it matter if the city’s crisis worsens?

OKAY. Since writing this love triangle, I’ve heard that a lot of folks...really really hate them (oops!). Speaking personally, I wanted to write one because I was tired of stories where one of the boys Obviously Sucks and one of them is Obviously Perfect. Let it be more nuanced! 

So I crafted a love triangle where both boys make sense, but in different ways; and I’m really proud of how the Callen/Ox/Rowan dynamic plays out. It was fun to think of ways each of the guys could complement Rowan’s personality. It forced me to clearly define how each of the characters thinks and what their core values are. My beta readers and CPs were split on who they liked better, and that’s a win in my book.

So if you hate love triangles, I hope you’ll accept my take on them. TES is a fun, magical adventure all its own, anyway! You can skip the romance pages. It won’t hurt my feelings. 😉🤍 

For those that do like lurve triangles, do you think you’ll be team “hot new guy” or team “hot best friend”? No wrong answers!
🔥 Loyalty above all.🔥 The Leonodai people’ 🔥 Loyalty above all.🔥 The Leonodai people’s dearest adage...and the words that will be tested time and time again in THE ENDLESS SKIES. Loyalty over personal dreams. Loyalty over love. 

And yet, what if disobeying is the only answer? What if going against what you’ve always been taught is also the right thing to do? What then?

I guess you’ll have to read THE ENDLESS SKIES to find out! 😉 TES is available now for request on Netgalley and Edelweiss. Until you read, don’t forget to add TES to Goodreads too (links in my bio). 

What do you think of TES’s tagline? What are some of your other favorite tag lines, fantasy and beyond? “Darkness never works alone” from Emily Duncan’s RUTHLESS GODS is one of my more recent favorites.
