Valentia McDowell was a rather spoiled young lady, living on her father’s wealthy dairy farm near Canton, Ohio. She was bored with life, and decided she needed some adventure. Of course, the constant unwanted advances from the Odious Nicholas didn’t help.
Since her grandmamma had emigrated from Ireland when she was but a child, Valentia had heard stories of this magical land her entire life. And she had been told of a mysterious family heirloom, an intricate, delicate brooch, that had been left behind in the Old Country.
Determined to find any long-lost family and perhaps even find this haunting brooch, Valentia decided that she must take on a quest and search these things out. She had no idea what she was getting into. Ireland in 1846 was in the throes of a potato blight that would wrack the already depressed nation into a horrible Hunger, halving the population to death and emigration before it was done. It was no place for a gently born young lady.

Celtic Fairies, Fables, and Folklore! Bestselling author (top #100 Amazon Canada, #1 in Paranormal Fantasy, Amazon Canada) Christy Nicholas, also known as Green Dragon, is an author, artist and accountant. After she failed to become an airline pilot, she quit her ceaseless pursuit of careers that begin with 'A', and decided to concentrate on her writing. Since she has Project Completion Disorder, she is one of the few authors with NO unfinished novels. Christy has her hands in many crafts, including digital art, beaded jewelry, writing, and photography. In real life, she's a CPA, but having grown up with art all around her (her mother, grandmother and great-grandmother are/were all artists), it sort of infected her, as it were. She wants to expose the incredible beauty in this world, hidden beneath the everyday grime of familiarity and habit, and share it with others. She uses characters out of time and places infused with magic and myth. Combine this love of beauty with a bit of financial sense and you get an art business. She does local art and craft shows, as well as sending her art to various science fiction conventions throughout the country and abroad.
