Starfire Katrina Thompson

Publisher Marketing: Starfire Ever Moore, raised primarily by her mother due to her father's untimely death, has always been sheltered from the world. On her seventeenth birthday she has a dream about a mysterious and beautiful stranger. But when it becomes a recurring dream, she begins to understand that this she is more familiar with the stranger than she realized. A cosmic whirlwind of romance, surprise, and intrigue, Katrina Thompson's debut novel is an affecting and sweeping love story that illuminates the role of human choice and the extent to which we control our own fate. Starfire's mother and a distant guardian remind her of a bedtime story they used to tell her about a reincarnated princess whose life would change the world as she knows it. They confess that it was not just a story-it is actually her destiny and now the time has come for that story to come true: she must live under the care of a werewolf tribe that will protect her while she fulfills the story's prophecy. Her path is interrupted at a crossroads when she has to choose between Jerick, the immortal stranger in her dreams who has spent centuries trying to make her his bride, and her guardian Jacy, who stops at nothing to protect her, especially from Jerick. Will she choose immortality, death, or the path of her heart? Vibrant characters and beautiful landscapes populate Thompson's fully realized mythology that captures the pain and uncertainty of a young woman's transition into adulthood. Examining the role of human will within the chaotic brilliance of the universe at this precise moment of transition, she is able to unearth and fully explore wide-ranging emotional terrain that grounds the fantasy elements with startling depth and precision. Unlike other novels in its genre, Starfire is a force of nature, rooted in a common human experience that not only makes sense of the mysteries in the lives it discovers, it offers profound truths of existence rarely encountered. Contributor Bio:  Thompson, Katrina Though Katrina Thompson currently works in the customer service sector, her passion for whimsical settings and adventures to far-off places is a part of everything she does. Writing the Starfire series and other novels over the past four years has allowed her to grow along with her characters and express her own thoughts and experiences through their lives. Thompson grew up in a somewhat sheltered household, which she believes enabled her to stay grounded and allowed her to figure out her personal identity on her own terms, without the world's telling her what to like and who to be. This heightened level of self-awareness has armed her with the ability to make certain aspects of each of her characters a reflection of herself.
