Darkenbane

"You must follow your heart- for the answers you seek may save us all yet." A brass key. A note. A handsome stranger near a fountain in an abandoned courtyard. On a sultry New Orleans evening, Jasmine takes these only clues to her identity and follows them to a place she'd thought only existed in dreams and ancient faery tales. Through a doorway in time, Hayden has come from the dangers of his dying kingdom to the most beautiful woman he's ever known. Bound by his royal blood to retrieve the lost prophecies and end a war, he soon finds his quest, his destiny, and his love are all entwined with Jasmine more than anyone ever knew. Reviews and Other Information: "DARKENBANE: THE FOUNTAIN is a thrilling ride into a magical forest that absolutely engaged this reader... Romantic, fantasy filled, and a journey into a host of events that practically come to life, this is one story not to miss." Coffee Time Romance "For those who love the paranormal, historical, classical New Orleans lore, faery tales, and legends, DARKENBANE: THE FOUNTAIN is a "don't miss" novel. A fantastical contemporary spin on the classic changeling tale, this story is riveting and compelling and shows the promise of a fine author indeed...Adkins' characters are rich and full, empathetic and realistic, even in the midst of fantasy scenery." Dark Angel Reviews "Kimberly Adkins has done it again! Her second book, DARKENBANE: THE FOUNTAIN, is just as enchanting...as her debut, THE MEDALLION OF SOLAUS. Her writing is smooth and overwhelmingly beautiful as she places the beginning of the story in the French Quarter of New Orleans...a masterful tale of romance, fantasy and time travel..." Angela Steed, Author of 1080 KISS " The story begins in our present day New Orleans,after Hurricane Katrina. Wow! When you pick up this book and open to the first page, you are taken away! It's a "can't put down" read. Kimberly immediately takes you through magic portals to other worlds or dimensions, you decide... I would definitely rate this a great big 5, one of those reads that you just can't bring yourself to put down." Kasey's View
