Annalisia:
I don’t know of these resolutions of which you speak, but I do know something about resolve. I have resolved to don the plain cloak of a washerwoman & leave these palace walls. From the moment I enter the city, I’ll no longer be Annalisia, but simply Anna, a girl.
I’ll search for my missing cloth maiden, who has been taken. It should have been me after all, a mistake on the part of that man, il mostro, who boarded our royal vessel, and nearly killed two of my guards. (For who else but a monster would do such a thing?)
And I will use my gift of visions, no matter the danger to myself, and even though my grandmother, the queen, has forbidden it–even though I love her dearly and long for nothing more than to please her.
But I will never, under no circumstances, allow myself to lose my heart to Jovanni Septimus, even if he is a Legend come to life.

Very cool, Lena! When is Aire releasing?
Hi, Lisa! It’s coming out this spring, hopefully March, but I don’ have an exact date yet.
Sounds like Ana might lose her heart to Jovani whether she likes it or not.
This sounds like an exciting adventure. Can’t wait to read it!
Why do I think she’s in trouble where Jovani is concerned?
Thanks, all!
Lovely voice!
Thanks, Toni!
I admire her resolve, but of course she won’t be able to meet her last resolution.
I love the cover an second she sounds like my kind of girl, willing to boldly go where the faint of heart dare not.
Aww, thanks, Ednah! I did the cover design myself, with guidance from my amazing graphics mentor/teacher, the lovely Lisa A.
Check it out Lena–my friend Colleen, who is an artist herself thought I designed your cover!!! Flattered?
Wheeeeeee!
Seriously? Awwwwwww, I’m flattered. Your covers are gorgeous.
I smell a tragedy, or at least some very emotional foreboding. This I like.
I love the cover! And sounds like a neat plot. Can’t wait to read it.
Oh man, sometimes we just can’t fight fate, can we
