Blurb:
Persephone takes her future and heart into her own hands when she meets a mysterious man on a sweet summer day. However, when tragedy strikes, Adrian begs her to follow one request: head to the sea. Determined to honor his request, she begins a journey where she discovers her true heritage and family. The problem is, a dangerous past is nipping at her heels every step of the way. Will she make it to the sea and find her destiny? Or will she lose everything she fought so hard to find?
About the Author
Phoenix Johnson has
always been intrigued by the written word. Even when she was a young girl, she
usually had her nose stuck in at least one book, and her need to read would
drive her to peruse the back of the same cereal box each morning at
breakfast.
Paranormal
and fantasy captured her heart, with tales about dragons, magic, and fanciful
creatures sweeping her away to a wonderful new world where she felt she truly
belonged. While she dabbled in writing while in primary school, it wasn’t until
high school that she decided she should try her hand at writing her own book,
and even gave poetry a try.
She
wandered away from writing for a few years, but was soon encouraged to return
and, within months of picking up the proverbial pen, Phoenix’ first story, The Wolf In The Neighborhood, was accepted for publication
by Naughty Nights Press.
While working on the rest of the Wolf Smitten Trilogy, Phoenix decided to take
on a university degree, and is now in the final stretch of her Bachelor of
Art’s degree in Professional Writing and Publishing, with plans to continue on
to her Master’s degree.
In early
2015, Phoenix was thrilled to discover she’d made two Top 5 lists with three
entries in the 2015 Easychair Bookshop Awards. In June, it was announced
she had placed first in Best Paranormal with Once Bitten, Twice Shy, the second installment in her Wolf
Smitten Trilogy, while The Wolf In The Neighborhood and Wolf Smitten placed third in their
respective categories of Best Paranormal and Best Series. With her inclusion in
the Alphas on the Prowl Box Set in 2015, Phoenix hit the top
100 bestsellers lists across numerous distributors, number 1 bestseller on
several Amazon lists, and this was quickly followed by the announcement of her
achievement of number 1 bestseller for her publisher, Naughty Nights Press,
for the full second quarter of 2015. The awards and achievements have only
served to strengthen her ambitions, and she is now aiming at reaching the
bestseller lists for USA Today and New York Times.
Phoenix has
been working hard to make 2015 her year, and has been busy organizing
paranormal anthology Twisted Tales with seven other authors. Its release at the
end of June is greatly anticipated, and she is extremely excited to see where
her writing career takes her next.
