Blog postMeet the newest members of the Ariella Moon team!
I love research!
When writing about horses in New Orleans for SPELL FOR SOPHIA, I contacted horse and dog expert, Lisa Gillett, for her insights on horse behavior. I had ridden horses before, which gave me some insider knowledge, but it had been awhile since I had been in the saddle.
Horses I know - somewhat.
Cats, however, are a complete mystery.

On May Eve, Druids lit the Bel fires (bright fires, balefires) for luck and protection. Witches jumped the flames to fortify the protection spells. Cattle were driven between the balefires to safeguard the herd. Couples spent the night in the woods “A-Maying.” Married couples cavorted as well. They were allowed to remove their wedding rings, and for the night were free of the restrictions of marriage.

Disa swore to always protect her younger sister. But a nine-year old is nay match for Norse invaders.
Centuries earlier, dwarfs failed to safeguard Gudbrand the Dwarf and the Last Fairy King. The murderer remains at large.
Then a child spotted at the slave market demonstrates courage and self-sacrifice. It will take years for the dwarfs to train her... But the girl will do anything to learn her sister's fate—even infiltrate Fairy to destroy the Fairy Queen.
But will her Halfling son, Talfryn, be able to find his banished mother when he needs her most?
In this sequel to The Beltane Escape, shape-shifters and secrets abound, time bends, fates interweave, friendships fray, and no one is safe.
When the Lady of the Lake's spell strikes Fenella, the Thaness of Thorburn, the enchantment leaves her stolen, betrothed, and lured back centuries into Fairy. Fenella has nine days to cross a dangerous world of magic, unshackle herself from a sorceress, evade Merlin, and return through time before her kidnapper destroys all she holds dear.
Heartbreak haunts Viviane, the new Lady of the Lake, after a magical challenge from Merlin ends tragically, causing her forbidden love to forsake her. Proving her worthiness may help Viviane win back her estranged lover. But will helping the sorceress Morgan le Fay concoct an elixir to save King Arthur aid Viviane’s cause? Can she trust a potion created from Merlin’s stolen incomplete spell?
In a dangerous time of shape-shifting fairies, unrivaled sorcery, and protective dragons,
the amber elixir could alter the balance of power in the Two Realms for centuries. Even on the isle of Avalon, magic exacts a price and choices have consequences.
Fans of The Mists of Avalon, will love The Amber Elixir, a medieval tale of magic, powerful women, and forbidden romance.
