Awen Rising: Book One of the Trilogy

Emily Mayhall is having a lousy day on top of a god-awful year. Her mother is dead, her fiancé's gone, she's lost her job, and she barely survived a traumatic bankruptcy. That, plus a stalker-lunatic witch-turned-evangelist Shalane Carpenter-forced Emily to give up her swanky condo for a walk-up apartment in Venice Beach. Now, Emily is lying low, licking her wounds. But she just crashed into Shalane on the boardwalk. Her cash is running low. And come Friday, Emily will be out on the street. Then there's the matter of that registered letter from Atlanta. Emily is sure its arrival triggered the dreams that now haunt her sleeping and waking hours - she is the druid priestess Awen, and time is running out.
