About Me

LUNA Books are compelling, female-focused fantasy with vivid characters, rich worlds, strong, sympathetic women and romantic subplots. Emotionally complex, sweeping stories that highlight the inner female power. Whether the heroine is on a quest to save the world—or someone or something important to her—discover her past or develop her own abilities, these stories are involving, gripping and sweep the reader away into a detailed, convincing world. They also contain romantic subplots that enhance the main story but don't become the focus of the novel.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone interested in female-focused fantasy novels. Anyone who wished that The Lord of the Rings was more about Arwen and Eowyn. Anyone who’s ever read yet another male-focused fantasy or sci fi book and wondered where all the women were!

Free Fall
Laura Anne Gilman

Nothing in life is free. Even if you steal it.

The Cosa Nostradamus is in disarray; the Truce holding violence in check has been broken. Magical Manhattan is at war, and Wren Valere is left without her partner/lover Sergei, whose past loyalties keep him from her side just when she needs him the most.Hoping to keep herself occupied, Wren takes a job--but what should have been an ordinary Retrieval instead forces her to realize that it is time to do more. It is time for the Cosa to take the battle to the enemy.But she'll do it her way. The Retrievers' way. Sneaky, smart--and with maximum damage possible. What was lost will be found, what was stolen will be Retrieved. And this war will be ended, once and for all.

Wren Valere always finishes the job. Always.

Fortune's Fool
Mercedes Lackey

The seventh daughter of the Sea King, Ekaterina is more than a pampered princess--she's also the family spy. Which makes her the perfect emissary to check out interesting happenings in the neighboring kingdom...and nothing interests her more than Sasha, the seventh son of the king of Belrus. Ekaterina suspects he's far from the fool people think him. But before she can find out what lies beneath his facade, she is kidnapped!

Trapped in a castle at the mercy of a possessive Jinn, Ekaterina knows her chances of being found are slim. Now fortune, a fool and a paper bird are the only things she can count on--along with her own clever mind and intrepid heart....

House of Cards
By C.E. Murphy
New York City's only legal counsel to the fabled Old Races, Margrit Knight is level-headed in all matters extraordinary. But when she's summoned to negotiate a peace treaty among rival factions, her own mortal world threatens to fall apart. Magrit's been in hot water before, but reentering the underworld brings a new set of problems. Also a new set of friends and enemies, including a ruthless vampire mobster, a dragonlord who won't take no for an answer, a band of subversive selkies—and Alban Korund, the uberhot gargoyle who got her into this mess...and whose granite-strong touch still haunts her every fantasy.
