Synopsis:
At the age of sixteen, Abby is undergoing major household
changes. Her mom is getting ready to remarry and her new step-brother is
driving her insane. She is just trying to keep herself busy with school and her
part-time job when a most deliciously handsome stranger moves to her little
seaside town and won't leave her alone.
New
arrival Wilhelm is unlike any other student at Abby’s school. His emerald eyes
and tattooed body don’t truly reveal what he really is: a creature emerged from
thousands of miles underground, seeking revenge, treasure, and a key that once
belonged to an old enemy – a key Abby wears suspended from a chain around her
neck. Why she has it is a mystery that Wilhelm will need to solve, and fast, in
order to defeat a powerful mortal adversary.
As an attraction between Abby and Wilhelm develops, more
creatures like Wilhelm are drawn from beneath the ground to Abby’s town;
wreaking havoc as they offer Abby’s classmates the fulfillment of their deepest
desires. Will Abby and her new family survive as a game of magical warfare is
unleashed? Her ability to reverse Wilhelm’s bargain depends on it.
Excerpt from Troll:
Seconds went by and he
found nothing, except a distraction. It wasn’t the human’s heartbeat drumming
steadily on the second floor that he found unnerving, most likely it was the
fact that she was reading a rhyme aloud – that wasn’t a human thing as much as
it was a trolls’: “A kiss was made,” he heard her voice whisper, trying to
ignore it. “A rose was dropped.” He looked up when she said the word rose. “A
heart was snapped in half. The love of your life has left you in a world that’s
dark and black.”
He moved toward the
sound. Perhaps she was really one of his kind in disguise, here to spy on him.

Interview:
1.
How
long does it take you to write a book?
My answer is different depending on the
kind of novel I’m writing. Usually sci-fi fantasy manuscripts I can write very
fast, having a manuscript finished in two to three months; sometimes even
quicker. Contemporary romances usually take me a little longer.
2.
Where
do you get your information or ideas for your books?
Sometimes from dreams, other times from
random thoughts in the middle of the day; I’ll get an idea and write it down
and the story grows in my head from there. As a child and young adult I came up
with so many story ideas that I still have boxes full of them in my house.
3.
When
did you write your first book and how old were you?
In the third grade when I was either
eight or nine years old.
4.
What
do you like to do when you're not writing?
Exorcise, study biblical topics, go on
dates, get together with my friends, and be around my family.
5.
What
does your family think of your writing?
They are so supportive, my sister
especially reads my work and as a professional graphic designer, she has made a
lot of my novel covers. http://www.amberhdesigns.com/
6.
How
many books have you written? Which is your favorite?
Including novels that have not been
published, probably close to a hundred. My Shock Me series will always be my favorite
group of books I think but you never know. All my novels are special to me.
7.
Do
you like to create books for adults?
Yes, I love to write for all ages and
audiences.
8.
As
a child, what did you want to do when you grew up?
The first career I thought I wanted was to be
a nurse like my mom, and then later a holistic doctor. My career goals changed
as I got older, turning towards film and media.
