Book Description: 

Caution: The Gardinian World Novels are a trip into a paranormal world where the gods of Gardas are real, the sex can be downright raunchy, and more than a few four letter words litter the page.

Forged from a childhood filled with bloodshed and death, Trent had been raised with a blade in his hands. He lives the life of a warrior and carves through his enemies as if seeking redemption for his mother’s ultimate sacrifice. As the acting Mikko of the Order of Rockys, Trent leads the most dominant Lycans in the world. For that reason alone, he has no use or understanding for those who wallow in their vulnerabilities, rather than exercise their power over their own destiny.

Aryana doesn’t dream of everlasting love. Her life is ruled by a song that echoes from the halls of Oblivia, a fate that came to her under the thundering hooves of the Mares of Night. She is going to die, but with no clue as to when or why, Aryana is forced to do everything she can to negate the haunting words of fate,

“Weakness dies and you are weak.”

But the gods are merciless in their meddling in the lives of powerful mortals and the ones they love. How far will Trent have to fall for the weak female who steps in his life and claims his soul?

About the Author:

Kelsey Jordan is the author of The Gardinian World novels. Though she has a preference for all things paranormal and romantic, Kelsey admits she just writes what her muse demands of her. It’s less painful that way. When she isn’t enjoying the momentary benefits of playing god to the many characters that live in her head, she can usually be found curled up with a book, killing something in a video game, or spending time with her family. At some point in the day she is probably drinking more than her recommended dose of coffee, but don’t tell her that. She doesn’t care about recommended servings.

As a Texas native and self-described Air Force brat, Kelsey now lives in Georgia with her husband and their tutu-wearing minion. 


Interview
Where are you from?
As a military brat, I’m not technically from a particular place. I claim Texas as my home as it was my birthplace and the place I resided the longest.

Tell us your latest news?
Currently I’m working on a Wattpad exclusive story—The Hunter’s Blade, which is the Hunters story. I’m also hard at work on the last two books in the series, which will be out sometime next year.

When and why did you begin writing?
          I started writing poetry at the age of thirteen, but switched to novels in my early twenties.

When did you first consider yourself a writer?
          I didn’t really recognize myself as a writer until my mid twenties when I realized that nothing made me happier than telling the stories popping up in my head.

What inspired you to write your first book?
          The Howling by Within Temptation poked my muse just right because one minute I was simply listening to a new song, the next I had the beginnings of the Gardinian universe.

Do you have a specific writing style?
          Not particularly. I believe in doing what is best for telling the character’s story. I follow their lead.

How did you come up with the title?
          I typically have the title as soon as I have the story. They’re kind of just given to me.

Is there a message in your novel that you want readers to grasp?
          That change is necessary for growth.        

If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?
Sherrilyn Kenyon, though I didn’t discover her until well after I started writing and G.A. Aiken/Shelly Laurenston. Both of them have a way with world building that make their series more than just paranormal/urban romance series.

What book are you reading now?
Lol I’m actually rereading G.A. Aiken’s Dragon Kin series.

What are your current projects?
          Since I’m never working on just one thing, I have multiple things in the works. I will say that The Hunter’s Blade is the most recent one that readers can read, though I’m posting it in chapters.

What would you like my readers to know?
          Hi, readers! What I want you to know is that I am random and weird, but most of all I am grateful for your readership.
