Voodoo Priestess, Madame Lilly, will get her revenge tonight even if the price is her soul.
In the late 1800’s Odara, a Creole girl in New Orleans, grew up wealthy and having the best of everything. She was taught the ways of plaçage: to be a wealthy man’s common-law wife. She didn’t want to follow the ways of plaçage as her mother had, until she met the man of her dreams, Henry Nicolas. He was handsome, charming and rich; perfect in every way until their first night of marriage when she saw his true malevolent side.
For twelve long years Odara endured abuse in the worst ways possible, taking her from a naive child to a scorned woman. A woman fueled with such revulsion towards Henry she would give anything for vengeance.
Through voodoo, Madame Lilly was born, but with it came consequences beyond even her comprehension.

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
This book deals with a culture that people are fascinated with yet never really talk about. It’s deep and mysterious which in itself is alluring. Then there is voodoo, the forbidden religion which really is not but most people see it that way. I felt putting the two together makes a unique combination.
What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
I suggest staying organized when promoting, don’t expect a lot so soon, quickly grow thick skin when dealing with a bad review and keep writing if that is really what you want to do.
Author Bio:
I was born in New York and lived there with my family until I was eight when we moved to Mississippi. Ten years later, I went to college at Xavier University in New Orleans, Louisiana for about two years then moved to Massachusetts for life experience. Eventually, I moved back to New York where I became a registered nurse and studied forensic nursing. After working some years in New York as a nurse, I started doing travel nursing and loved it. I decided to stop traveling while in Colorado to stay close by family. Shortly after, I met my wonderful husband and have been here ever since.
Even as a child, I have always had a love for science fiction and enjoyed it through books, movies and comics. I have dabbled in writing throughout the years, and decided it was time to let my true self free. I took some time off from work to pursue a career in writing and published my first book titled Connor late 2013. I plan on following up with a series of books under the Connor name and my goal is to be finished with the second book by the middle of 2014. Madame Lilly just came to me and I felt the need to share her with others. I plan on having her around for many more years.
