Robin is just like any other teenage girl. She loves to run, hang with her friends, and is obsessed with her cell phone.
Oh, and she's known by her city as The Hood, the mysterious figure that takes down those that are corrupt and wealthy with the help of her merry men - her three computer genius friends that are expert hackers.
Her current target? Richard Sherwood, CEO of Sherwood Innovations. He has a net worth of multiple billions (exact amount unknown) and has been grooming his son to be the heir to his empire.
Oh, and he happens to be involved in the death of Robin's parents and the disappearance of countless other innocents in the city.
So, what's a girl to do? Stand back and watch a selfish, malevolent man take down the city with his bare hands?
No.
She's going to steal from the rich and give back to the poor, of course.
But even though she has her secret weapon, Golden Arrow, and her tech savvy best friends, stealing from the most powerful man in the city from his Sherwood Tower office building is much easier said than done.

When Aylaina makes her maiden voyage into time, she quickly realises she has gone BACK in ttime to the 12th century, and Sherwood Forest, the Robin Hood era. But the Robin Hood legend she discovers, is not like any other legend she has ever read about. Follow along as Aylaina becomes part of the Merry Men and the mischief she gets into as she tries to make her mark on history. I have incorporated the final two episodes of the BBC series that aired in 2009. "Something Worth Fighting For" My objective was to put right what once went wrong by sending a young woman from the fuqture to change history. If you are expecting a dark, Twighlight-like Guy, youwere'll be a bit disappointed. My 'Guy' is a tortured soul, yes, brooding , yes, but he has a side that comes out upon meeting the heroine. I believe you will recognise the character as Richard Armitage portrayed him and I believe I have captured the personalities of the other characters from the series. My heart-felt thanks and appreciation go out to my marvelous betas, Fanny Thornton and Tully2Shoes for all their hard work in trying to teach me the art of creative writing, grammar and punctuation!
