"Bloodfrost" signed with Club Lighthouse

Bloodfrost, first book in the Bloodline Trilogy, has been signed with Club Lighthouse Publishing. The novel will be released in electronic and print editions in 2019.

 

Noel Gatsby's dreams take her away from the misery of her pain-wracked, disease-riddled body. The dreams become real when she awakens one morning to find herself completely cured. However, she soon learns her miraculous recovery comes at a price.

Book #2 Bloodlust, and Book #3 Blood & Soul will follow in 2020 and 2021, respectively.

Each book in the Bloodline Trilogy features strong female lead characters. The women are also related: first Noel, then her daughter Kate and lastly, Kate's daughter Jenny.

I fancied the three women as far-fetched depictions of the Triple Goddess. My characters are not witches or goddesses, but their relation to one another reminded me of the Triple Goddess Wiccan deity, also known as Maiden, Mother & Crone. Each woman symbolizes a different moon phase and stage of life. In pagan lore, they also rule different realms such as earth and the waxing moon (Jenny), the underworld and full moon (Kate), and the heavens and waning moon (Noel).

(Above): The "Triple Goddess" symbol of waxing, full and waning moons, which represents Maiden, Mother & Crone.

None of the books in the Bloodline Trilogy are about witchcraft or pagan lore, but the representation of Maiden, Mother & Crone reminded me of the rather intricate and uniquely magical blood ties between my three female characters.
