It's My Birthday Month! #ZoeJabril #EnlightenSeries #AuthorForLife

Hola! It's my birthday! And I'm going to celebrate the whole month long!

Oh, I should mention who I am. I'm Zoe Jabril and I live in a wonderful little town called, St. Joseph. I live with my parents and younger sister, Stella. We live in a yellow house in a cul-de-sac.

So that's a little about me, and what I'm going to do this whole month is share more about myself so you get an idea of what kind of teenager I am. And maybe, just maybe, you'll want to get to know me better and follow my story in The Guardian, a Sword, & Stilettos (#EnlightenSeries), written by the fabulous: Kristin D. Van Risseghem. Picture

Kristin's Quarterly VIP Newsletter

​The Passage, a Dance, & a Little White Dress, Enlighten Series Book Two Picture By clicking on the graphic above, it'll take you directly to Amazon where you can purchase it and continue with Zoe's journey. It’s been a week since 17-year-old Zoe Jabril found out her best friend is a Guardian Angel, her boyfriend is a Nephilim, and a fellow classmate is a Fairy. What makes Zoe so special? She’s destined to unify Enlightens to battle evil—that is, if Demons don’t kill her first.

With "Project: Enlightens Unite" underway, Zoe learns the history of the area wolf pack and realizes she’s in a race against time to get her newly discovered talents under control. Despite struggling to fight a mysterious attraction to her new neighbor, rescue her boyfriend from Demons, and travel into Fairyland to convince the Summer King to join the fight, Zoe must still attend high school classes so her nosy parents don’t suspect anything is out of the ordinary before Demons can mount another attack.

​Zoe will need all the help she can get, from the most unlikely of sources, if she’s to save her boyfriend’s life and prevent the Devil from escaping Hell on her eighteenth birthday. ** Supernatural Bites Book Bundle ** Picture By clicking on the graphic above, it'll take you directly to Amazon where you can purchase the book bundle.
