The fantasy novel I wrote before Prince of Thorns. It's 20 years old now! But I had a good time writing it and I think it's a fun read.

The girl with a Secret past becomes the most feared woman in all the lands.

Eli wanted to spend her day with something she loves to most and that is sleeping. When she sleeps a demon is awoken and takes revenge on her family. Just so she can sleep forever.

| BOOK ONE | COMPLETE | [#RBLS finalist - top 7] Rebecca Morley lives a normal life. Well, as normal as a teenage life can be. Boys, friends, makeup . . . They don't matter to her. She's just the freak of her school, the one no one wants around. Growing up as an orphan she was never wanted. She's built up walls to protect herself so she can't be hurt anymore. That all changes when Mikael Bertoz enters her life. At first he's scary in Rebecca's eyes - he's stronger and bigger than anyone she's ever seen and has an aura of darkness surrounding him. But as they weeks go by he's charming and kind. Rebecca's walls threaten to break down. She wants to trust him, but can she? Then her world is turned upside down when the truth of her lineage is revealed. She's not the worthless orphan that no one cares about, she's something more. In the midst of the chaos of finding out who she really is and finally being noticed, Mikael is still a constant in her life. He's there for her even if Rebecca isn't sure he's trying to humiliate her. He's under he skin and Rebecca can't deny it. The more chaotic her life gets, the more Mikael is involved. But is it a good thing or is it detrimental to her?
