    About this ebook

    Deep in the enemy land of Atheria, one young woman escapes her captors only to find herself alone, unarmed, and starving. Torn from her life of privilege and the arms of her ma’hasi lover, Sahmara is unfit for life on the run. The well-being of her family is unknown, and if Zane isn’t dead, he is a slave. No one is coming to save her.

    Desperate, Sahmara prays for help, but the gods have  price for their assistance. Along with her lovers Olando and Sara, she may be the one to help take her homeland back if she can only find the strength within herself.

    Jean Davis

    Jean Davis lives in West Michigan with her musical husband, two attention-craving terriers and a small flock of chickens. When not ruining fictional lives from the comfort of her writing chair, she can be found devouring books and sushi, weeding her flower garden, or picking up hundreds of sticks while attempting to avoid her yard's abundant snake population. Her focus is bringing strong, capable women to speculative fiction.
