Soul Reborn (Key to the Cursed Book 1) (30 page)

Oh, God. Her gift failed her. Failed Bakari. Of
all the times for her to be blinded to the history of an object—why now?

Stunned, she turned to Bomani. “I’m going to need
to see the palace library. The sooner, the better.” Bakari’s chance at freedom
lay hidden in some ancient text. She prayed to the gods she would find it
quickly.

Everyone counted on her to free Bakari. His soul
and the souls of the world depended on it.

I need to start my
thanks at the beginning of this writing journey just a few short years ago. I
want to thank the PRO liaisons from Fantasy, Futuristic and Paranormal chapter
of RWA, if it wasn’t for their valiant efforts of setting up workshops and
pitch sessions, I wouldn’t have had the wonderful mentoring and opportunities
that led me to this wonderful moment in time. My sincere gratitude goes out to my
editor of Soul Reborn, Heather Howland, who selected my story among many
talented authors and mentored me in my journey to publication, I can’t thank
her enough.

Finally to my
family, thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting me in my sudden
career change into writing romantic fiction. To my boys, I love you.

Not sure how I am
going to top this shocker.

In her pursuit of a
nursing degree, Jean Murray aspired to see the world and joined the Navy. At
the end of 2011 she said a heart-breaking goodbye to her Navy family and
retired after twenty years of military service. Although her dreams of writing
full time have yet to come true, she continues her writing journey and draws
inspiration from her travels abroad. She enjoys spending time with her family and
of course, writing about the “Carrigan sisters and their mates, Gods of the
Underworld,” to bring you the next installment of the Key to the Cursed series.
