Unraveling Grimm
Paperback
$30.00
Book 3 in the Grimm Inheritance Chronicles. This book releases August 30th and is expected to ship the first week in September, maybe as late as the 2nd week.
Desperate for a future that doesn't end at the Last Gate, Ember and Evadne have
abandoned their path through the Moores and fled aboard a skye pirate ship. But fate
will not surrender them so easily and they are pursued by darkness, even across the
skies. As the Knight’s power continues to grow, the cost of their freedom might be the
Realm’s destruction. The girls must make what feels like an impossible choice—to
escape in search of the happy ending denied to them by prophecy, or to embrace what
they’re meant to be.
Will their hearts compel them to return and save the very Realm
that has taken everything from them?
Meanwhile, the menacing shadows around Jeremiah’s compound have only deepened,
and Faye and Ronan are locked in a stalemate. The situation is more complicated than
Faye first thought. And so are her feelings about Ronan. But time is running out and she
must decide. Will she surrender her anger and join forces with Ronan to help him save
his sister from Jeremiah? Or will she let the hatred fester and watch as Jeremiah’s
madness destroys them both? Faye’s only chance to save herself, and her father, may
hang in the balance.
I aim to convey themes of hope in the midst of great sorrow and heartbreak. Courage in the face of evil, standing up for what's right and fighting for the ones you love.
I hope to express the ideas that, no matter what you're facing, there are things worth fighting for. Moreso, no matter how you feel, you have the strength to rise again and continue fighting.
These are all ideals and truths I pull from my faith, and in my aim to create God honoring fiction, these are truths I try to convey around the darker, heavier themes we so often encounter in this life. We live in a dark world, and we face great darkness everyday.
How we face it, and find courage in the fight, is one I believe can be conveyed through the journey of a life.
The strands of silver interwoven on a blackened cloth.
I have characters who are flawed, characters who fall, characters who lose hope. But we all do at some time or another, don't we? In the end, isn't it more important not how many times we fall, but how many times we rise again to keep fighting?
By the grace of God, we rise again, and while I don't write allegory, I write that strength and courage.
As C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien so often fought over, should a book necessarily be an allegory to be of worth? I land firmly on the side of Tolkien. :) Which is why I don't write allegories, I write concepts and ideas, themes of Christianity, if you will.
I know that I am not everyone's cup of tea, and I'm okay with that.
As always with my writing, my heart is to open the door for conversations about the one true source of hope in this life, Jesus Christ.
I've at last found peace in my convictions as a Christian author and my goal is always,
Soli Deo Gloria
With love and great gratitude,
