What People Say

“I couldn’t put this down! I loved the continuation of characters from book one….with this story being about Lexi (Tessa’s BFF). The mysterious snake bracelet is at it again. However in this wonderful journey, Lexi discovers shocking things about her own past as well as the long distant past. It seems the door Tessa first opened into the past and people in book one hasn’t quite closed, and Lexi is linked to some of them too. Get ready for the next chapter in this exciting tale, filled with romance, betrayal, survival, strength, courage, and love. I couldn’t put this wonderful adventure down…and can’t wait for the last in this trilogy to be released. I highly recommend both of these books.”

Inspiration
From the start I knew my story would continue with Tessa’s best friend, Alexis Hill–Lexi. She was such a fun character to write and I wanted to give her an adventure worthy her strong, protective character.
Research turned up an amazing character from the past that launched me on an amazing journey with Queen Zenobia, a woman who very nearly conquered Rome.
Zenobia’s last look over Palmyra
After this success, Zenobia personally led her army as a “warrior queen.” She conquered more territory, including Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine, creating an empire independent of Rome. This area of Asia Minor represented valuable trade route territory for the Romans, and the Romans seem to have accepted her control over these routes for a few years. As ruler of Palmyra and a large territory, Zenobia had coins issued with her likeness and others with her son’s; this may have been taken as a provocation to the Romans though the coins acknowledged Rome’s sovereignty. Zenobia also cut off grain supplies to the empire, which caused a bread shortage in Rome.
This is the coin Zaire’s father found while diving shipwrecks in the medeterranean Sea–the very ship Lesidi and Keleb sailed together–the one on the book cover! If you want to know more about Queen Zenobia, you can check her out HERE and HERE.
