So... how long til we reach Goal #3?

I am so, so grateful for everyone that’s pledged, helped to spread the word, and/or encouraged me thus far. I think I’m on the way to building a wonderful community of Aventans ahead of the book launch! Let’s keep it rolling. ;D

Attention ebook readers!
From Unseen Fire is a Featured Deal on BookBub today, which means you can pick it up for just $1.99!
That is HOURS of entertainment for less than a fast food cheeseburger. Who could pass that up?
The Dictator is dead; long live the Republic. But whose Republic will it be? A trio of patrician sisters and an ambitious senator use wit, charm, and magic to realize their dreams for Aven, an alternate-universe version of late Republic Rome poised on the brink of greatness or destruction.
Praise for From Unseen Fire:
“‘Rome with magic’ turns out to be exactly the novel I wanted to read. The magic cleverly intertwines with religion, politics, and daily life. The characters appeal, especially the loving portrait of three loyal sisters. There are battles (of course), a budding love story of the illicit kind, some remarkably topical political maneuvering, an awareness of diverse layers of class and ethnicity, and a love of place that shines on the page.” — Kate Elliott, author of Cold Magic and Black Wolves
“A unique and well-studied fantasy take on the Roman world --- an alternate world of another name, where ambition is a driving force and magic is real.” — C. J. Cherryh, author of the Alliance-Union novels
"Cass Morris brings ancient Rome to life with all its particular details, passions, and political intrigue, and populates it with captivating characters. Then she sprinkles it with magic. Yeah, that's the stuff." — Kristen Britain, New York Times bestselling author of the Green Rider novels
"A spellbinding tale of political machinations. Fans of I, Claudius and Game of Thrones are in for a treat.” — ALA Booklist Starred Review
