SOMETHING ATE MY SPROUT!!! I am so angry. I have been waiting weeks for my Angel Trumpet seeds to sprout and after what seemed like forever I got one sprout. ONE!! I went out yesterday to check on it and noticed that it had been nibbled on a little bit. I was a bit upset, but at least I still had a sprout. I checked on it again this morning and it was GONE!!! Words can’t describe how upset I am. Actually they can. I am very upset. The only thing I can do to turn this mood around is to go to the hardware store and buy that cute Clematis vine I saw. Yup yup.

FREE for a limited time

If you’re a fan of Game of Thrones or Vikings, you’re going to love this!

Winter’s Fury is the enthralling first book in this epic fantasy series by A.E. Rayne. Enter a world of kingdoms and warriors, of dreamers and dark magic. Follow an unstoppable warrior as she claws her way to power and uncovers the destiny that awaits her.

Despite her reputation as Brekka’s greatest warrior, without her father to protect her, Jael Furyck was merely a pawn; a woman to be married off so her uncle could forge an alliance to fulfil his own desperate ambitions.

Eadmund Skalleson was broken, tortured by the death of his first wife, but his father had lost patience with him. He wanted heirs for his kingdom. He wanted his son back, restored to the fierce warrior he had once been. And when his daughter had a dream about Jael, he jumped at the opportunity to make an alliance with his worst enemy.

Jael and Eadmund will fight against their union, but the dreamers know that this marriage is meant to be. It must happen for the sake of Osterland. For without them – without Jael and her sword, without Eadmund by her side – the five kingdoms will not survive the darkness that is coming to claim them all.
