About the author
Stein Willard
49 books56 followersBorn and bred in Windhoek, Namibia, Stein has considerable experience in the media field and has worked as a journalist, TV producer, and PR consultant before starting her own small media production company. Her hobbies include writing, reading, cooking, travelling, photography, and scouting the airwaves for new music and watching soccer.
The thirty five year old Stein started writing at the age of thirteen after feeling cheated by the ending of a novel she was reading. She took the novel and rewrote it from the ending back to the front, adding 200 more pages to it. Since then she's only written in her native language, Afrikaans, a derivation of the Dutch language. Throughout her high school career, she 'lended' out her work to fellow boarding school students at a fee and made a killing writing love stories for couples on Valentine's Day.
Not a native English speaker she decided to experiment in 2007 by writing a few short stories in English, which since has been kept password-protected on her hard drive never to see the light of day. By pure accident, she came across platforms on the internet to publish her work and was encouraged by a friend to try and post some of her stories.
Stein still resides in Windhoek.

My first 3 stars…
for this author. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a good story. It just didn’t grab nor hold my interest per the authors usual. The characters were ok. It was harder to fully relate to Norma and Margaret. Believe it or not, I found Martha, the mother of Margaret more interesting and exciting than her daughter. Margaret was just “boring.”
I did like the storyline itself. The backstory to Norma was interesting. It’s didn’t go into too much detail but the relationship of the “flowers” to mother still has lots of ro for growth and digging into the past with Norma aka Violet.
I don’t know what the series holds next but I am cautiously optimistic to see what unfolds. I wish for more additions to the Guardian, Regency, Wolven or the Supernatural series.

Very enjoyable journey.
Fun sci-fi read. I really enjoy a good sci-fi book with strong women characters. The main characters are very strong mentally and physically. Very enjoyable read. Thanks

This space story is great. I loved the characters. Norma is dangerous and sweet, it's impossible not to like her. If the editing was beter, this book would get 5 stars.
