“A desperate princess, a handsome warrior, and an ancient magick to determine their fate.”
As daughter to the High King, love doesn’t come easily to Gráinne. Having turned down hundreds of suitors, she is being forced to marry Finn, an old, ugly yet powerful general. While outside the marriage hall, Gráinne bumps into Diarmuid, Finn’s handsome foster son. From that moment, Gráinne knows if she is to have any chance at love, he is the one she must marry. She begs him to take her away from this unwanted wedding. When Diarmuid refuses, Gráinne, desperate, places a curse on him; help her or die.
Diarmuid is a warrior who only wants to serve loyally, but when the princess sets her sights on him and casts her curse, he must make the most difficult choice of his life. Does he help her, taking their chances with a vengeful Finn, or does her refuse her, leaving her to her fate, and risking his own death?
With both their lives on the line, Gráinne and Diarmuid must fight to use Ireland’s ancient magick to escape from Finn, either bringing them together in passion or in death.
A Curse of Magick is a passionate tale of love, betrayal, revenge, and redemption. A retelling of an ancient Irish myth, A Curse of Magick takes the love and romance of Romeo and Juliet, and the exhilaration of King Arthur, and mixes it together for a satisfying adventure all will love.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I have always been interested in mythology. A few years ago, I began to read Celtic mythology and found it to be rich, deep, and unlike the Greek and Roman myths I was used to reading. I thought this tale was particularly appropriate for YA readers.
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
I tried as hard as I could to stay true to the original myth. Thus, my main characters, Gráinne, Diarmuid, and Finn, are also the main characters in this myth. My secondary characters – Oisin, Oscar, Angus, etc., are also from the myth. Only one of my characters, Sorcha, is created from my brain.
