    About this ebook

    For ages uncounted, Master Death has assisted souls in transition. But what happens when love gets in the way?

    Under the moon of the changing year Zoa plants a precious seed, hoping to grow a special tree, her new home. Until other celebrations intrude and change everything. Forever. 

    For millennia Tükenis has guided souls through his gates and little surprises him. Until an unexpected arrival is discovered in a long unused waiting area.

    What’s Death to do when a dryad appears at his gate without her soul? She can’t move on, nor go back. Will Death find a place for her--at his side?

Now, filled with fantasy and love, ther stories of her imagination have found their way into the mundane world. And when *lizzie has to return to her mundane life, she's the ~Lunch Lady~ at a private school. Author and lunch lady--what a combination!
