Alexander has a rare gift for weaving stories, but even he never imagined his latest captivating tale would come to life…

The young farmer turned storyteller lives with his head in the clouds, running from the past and hiding from the future. But he’ll have to come down and face the harsh new reality of the Great Depression if he stands a chance of saving his family’s New York farm from the bank.

Desperate to save his home, the hopeful young man makes a wish on the famous Northern Star. And that magical wish transports him far, far away…to the shimmering Valley of Diamonds.

It’s there, in the legendary Realm of Dreams, he meets the beautiful and bold Princess Aurelia. She makes his vulnerable heart beat fast, unlocking a world of possibility.

The princess makes him an offer he can’t refuse. Be the hero they’ve been waiting for to help her troubled kingdom, and in return, she’ll give him as many diamonds as it takes to save his family’s farm.

But navigating through the extraordinary land proves to be more difficult than he ever dreamed, especially while a dark plot unfolds in the shadows.

Alexander must face his fears and fulfill the prophecy or risk losing everyone he loves and everything he holds dear.

Taylor Summerlin is no stranger to the world of storytelling. During her time at Fullerton College and Cal State University, Fullerton, she studied the subject in its many forms.

Ever since, Taylor has written and illustrated stories, along with a few poems, people have expressed how much they loved. Her wish is to continue this path and that those who view her work will enjoy as well as feel the love and care she put into them.

Julie has always loved stories, both reading and writing them, ever since she was old enough to hold a book in her hands. One of her favorite childhood activities was smuggling books under the covers to read by flashlight after she was supposed to be asleep.

A career as a children’s librarian eventually led to her dream career as a freelance storyteller and puppeteer, a business she operated successfully for twenty-five years. During that time she created and wrote all the original material for a monthly language arts newsletter full of poems, songs, puppet and flannel-board stories, fingerplays, and other resource material for early childhood educators. For that endeavor she won the prestigious EDPRESS Award for the best educational newsletter of 1982. She has also written other resource materials for preschool and early elementary teachers.

After moving more than two dozen times in her life, Julie lives in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia. Now widowed and retired, she once again has time to devote to her two favorite things—reading and writing—especially her new love, erotic romances.
