Overview

Jaime Nevin struggles with her identity as much as any sixteen-year-old girl. Well, maybe a little more. Jaime just discovered that she is not human—at least not exactly. The child of a doomed union between a noble of the Unseelie Court and a Seelie Fae, Jaime has been raised by her mother hidden away from both courts in a small New England town.

Troubled by vivid dreams when asleep and plagued by paralyzing headaches when awake, Jaime knows something is wrong. After the strange disappearance of her mother, and the unexpected appearance of family she never knew, Jaime is forced to accept a truth about her past that puts her future at risk.

To make matters worse, while she works to determine who to trust, Jaime’s best friend Allie keeps a powerful secret from her.

Thrown into a world she doesn’t understand, Jaime must use her fledgling powers in a fight to stay alive and avoid capture by the Keeper, a soulless creature that frightens even the things that go bump in the night.

About the Author

I grew up listening to my grandmother read Grimm’s fairy tales. All of them. The dark ones were my favorite. From that I learned an appreciation for a well crafted, suspenseful story with a kernel of hope. Lose the hope, lose the reader. But, without peril, hope is pointless. If there is no risk of losing, why bother fighting? Balance is the key. I try to write stories with that in mind.
I live in New England, and the hills are ripe with the beginnings of a good tale. My two daughters are young enough to not be ready for my storytelling, but curious enough to ask for it anyway. I have to tread lightly. The wolf in my version of The Girl Who Cried Wolf cannot actually devour the little liar at the end, but the lesson remains.
Teaching led me to young adult literature, and I was delighted by the quality of what is out there now for teens to read. I hope to expand that selection with the Rite of Passage series. I won’t always focus on a YA audience, but this story developed so naturally that it seemed the right place to start.
