Itinerary…

*  First thing on Itinerary– Post blurb for Immortal!









When Teyth was but a child, a cruel prince took over his village, building a great granite tower to rule over the folk. Greedy and capricious, the man will be the bane of Teyth’s existence as an adult, but as a boy, Teyth is too busy escaping his stepfather to worry about his ruler. 

Sold into apprenticeship to the local blacksmith, Teyth finds that what was meant as a punishment is actually his salvation. Cairsten, the smith, and Diarmuid, his adopted son, are kind, and the smithy is the prosperous heart of a thriving village. As Teyth grows in the craft of metalwork, he also grows in love for Diarmuid, the gentle, clever young man who introduces him to smithing. 

Their prince wants Diarmuid too. As the tyrant inflicts loss upon loss on Teyth and Diarmuid, Teyth’s passion for his craft twists into obsession. By the time Teyth resurfaces from his quest to create immortality, he’s nearly lost the love that makes being human worth the pain. Teyth was born to sculpt his emotion into metal, and Diarmuid was born to lead. Together, can they keep their village safe and sustain the love that will make them immortal?

    You. Got. This. Oh yes, easyspirit.com – beautiful COMFORTABLE shoes….did I mention the comfortable part? So wished you were just up the road – kidnapping you for an outlet mall shoe-shopping spree would be so much better! And I DO wish that scheduling the mental breaks were easy. Maybe I could fit that around the therapy sessions and late-night chocolate runs!
