"In this second installment of a YA fantasy series, a half faerie must decide whether incarnating a wicked entity will stop a fiendish princess from seizing the throne in the Realm of Faerie ... Mortal-world inhabitant Jade's cynical self-awareness ... adds humor. Anticipating her rescue when captured, she muses: "Isn't that what happened in the enchanted world? Damsels in distress and all."- Kirkus Reviews Energies in the enchanted world are shifting and new alliances are forming; the battle between Dark and Light has begun. Melia is desperate to make things right with Ryder, the young priest from Idonne, but first she must warn the half-bloods in the mortal world that Umbra is coming for them--and face the powerful dragonwitch and her spectacular Dragon Carnivale. The stakes are raised when Melia grasps just how far she will have to go to save the people and world she loves. Whimsical and edgy, Daughter of Light is a high fantasy with an intriguing cosmology and well-developed characters for readers of all ages. Praise for the Daughter of Light fantasy trilogy: Isolt's Enchantment, the beginnings (Free Prequel) I loved the beauty of the world when Vulcan first meets Una, and I especially enjoyed the explanation of Umbra. Isolt's vengeance was absolutely delicious, and I could recommend this book based solely on that scene. -Erica at Fantasy Book Lane Half Faerie, Book 1 I found myself sharing emotions with several characters and my husband would walk by just shaking his head, he doesn't understand books and what they can do. I highly recommend this book. I want to thank Heidi Garrett for making my otherwise boring life so exciting with her books, I am loving it, every single minute! Five stars for Half Faerie. -KJ at Kj Reads A Lot Half Mortal, Book 2 The pace picks up quite a bit as the stakes are raised in Half Mortal, the second book in this epic coming of age fantasy trilogy. I can totally understand why the comparison to LoTR has been drawn, as Melia and her cohorts battle numerous foes as they attempt to make things right- in both realms.-Mama Reads, Hazel Reads War & Grace, Book 3 Coming in November 2017!

One bite of her luscious cupcakes and you just might fall in love... Nineteen-year-old Glynna Balcora's super power is baking. A young witch, she's lived her entire life tucked away in the quaint city of Spokane, WA with her domineering aunt and sweetheart of a grandmother. It's not an ideal situation. Although Glynna loves her grandmother dearly, and treasures the special times they spend in their magical greenhouse, Glynna's aunt keeps her niece on a tight leash using threats of vague enemies. Since Glynna graduated from high school a few a months ago, her aunt's be-home-before-dark curfew seems more ridiculous every day. It isn't doing much for the young witch's social life, either. With encouragement from her best friend, Glynna sneaks out one night to go to a bonfire party at the lake. There she has an unexpected encounter with Spokane's most eligible bachelor, Ashton Bass. Glynna's been crushing on Ashton since she was five years old. But when they share their first kiss, thunderstorms and lightning follow... and Glynna's aunt realizes it's time to tell the young witch the truth about who she really is.

"A half-faerie teenager struggles to stop a malicious entity from destroying both the mortal and enchanted worlds in this YA fantasy... Quite a few characters ... are deliciously ambiguous, including Pressina, who dabbles in black magic, and Sevondi, a dragonwitch ... a mythical tale as appealing as it is impressive." -Kirkus Reviews As a half-faerie, Melia is an outcast in the enchanted world where she lives with her two sisters and full-blood faerie mother. The girls' father has been exiled to the mortal world for breaking his faerie troth. When a tragic accident destroys what's left of Melia's fractured family, her mother is unforgiving. The punishment she metes out will leave her daughter torn between guilt and ecstasy, challenge the bonds between three sisters, and complicate Melia's relationship with a young priest who's come to the Realm of Faerie on a mission of his own.
