About this ebook
Victoria could read the smells on the breeze like a book. She heard the vibrations in the ground speak to her like voices. Air surrounded her always, whispering smells, tastes, and warnings. Air was friendly, sometimes pushy; it could strip the land of everything given the right twist. Water teased her with its refreshing touch, but if she wasn’t careful, it pulled her in and pushed her down.
Fire was none of those. It surged through her brain with a lusting appetite and charred her spirit. Left unchecked, fire blackened beauty.
Lightning was completely different. It growled in the background like a ravenous lion, struck instantly, and vanished, leaving only the electric scent of ionized air and scorched earth. Unlike the other elements of nature, lightning was born in the infinitely small space where the energy sparked to consumable rage.
She knew it was coming. The Air sizzled. The ground vibrated as black clouds crowded into formation, as if the sun suddenly desired to hide and pulled the blankets over its head. She looked up and knew something was different.
Foley looked up at the sky. Dark clouds boiled toward them, churning as if fueled by an angry volcano. “Is this you? Are you doing this?”
“No,” Victoria said.
“Bad time for a storm,” he said as rain drops began to fall.
Victoria shook her head. “This is no storm.”

I live on a small Michigan farm, which makes me laugh, because until last year, all my previous farm experience included a preschool field trip to a farm and picture books about farms. Still, I love beginning and ending each day in the barn with goats and chickens, and in the summer, long days in the garden. It all really comes down to my love of good food. Between chores, I homeschool my four children and I fit writing in between the lessons and sports practices. In 2001, I began seriously studying the craft of writing for young adults and middle grade students, hoping to provide good stories that inspire. Inspire what you ask? I hope my stories inspire people to think, to learn, to be at their best. I love to learn and to think and I try to be at my best. But, because I, too, suffer from the human condition, when I'm not at my best, I turn to books that inspire me.
