Raging Sea ~The Dragon’s Dove Chronicles Book 3
Outcast,
clanless, and but a junior officer in Arthur the Pendragon’s army, Angusel
struggles to rebuild the life stolen from him through betrayal by the person he
had held most dear. His legion allegiance thrusts him onto the campaign trail
as one of Arthur’s forward scouts, stalking Angli troops and being among the
first to clash with these vicious enemies at every turn. But the odds loom high
against him and his sword-brothers, and they will need a miracle just to
survive.
Pressured to make the best choice to ensure her
clan’s future leadership, Eileann struggles with her feelings for Angusel,
whose outcast status makes him forbidden to her as a mate. When Angli treachery
threatens everyone she loves, she vows to thwart their violent plan to conquer
her clan. But she is no warrior, she has no soldiers to command, and she will
need a miracle just to survive.
How can one soldier make a difference? How can one
woman save her kin and clan? In the crucible of combat, Angusel must surrender
to the will of the gods, and Eileann must invoke divine power to forge the most
dangerous warrior the world has ever known.

Morning’s Journey ~ The Dragon’s Dove Chronicles Book 2
In a violent age when enemies besiege Brydein and alliances shift as swiftly as the wind, stand two remarkable leaders: the Caledonian warrior-queen Gyanhumara and her consort, Arthur the Pendragon. Their fiery love is tempered only by their conviction to forge unity between their disparate peoples. Arthur and Gyan must create an impenetrable front to protect Brydein and Caledonia from land-lusting Saxons and the marauding Angli raiders who may be massing forces in the east, near Arthur’s sister and those he has sworn to protect.
But their biggest threat is an enemy within: Urien, Arthur’s rival and the man Gyan was treaty-bound to marry until she broke that promise for Arthur’s love. When Urien becomes chieftain of his clan, his increase in wealth and power is matched only by the magnitude of his hatred of Arthur and Gyan—and his threat to their infant son.
Morning’s Journey, sequel to the critically acclaimed Dawnflight, propels the reader from the heights of triumph to the depths of despair, through the struggles of some of the most fascinating characters in all of Arthurian literature. Those struggles are exacerbated by the characters’ own flawed choices. Gyan and Arthur must learn that while extending forgiveness to others may be difficult, forgiveness of self is the most excruciating—yet ultimately the most healing—step of the entire journey.
“Magnificent.” ~ Kathleen Foley, author of the Faith in Uniform series

Dawnflight ~ The Dragon’s Dove Chronicles Book 1
What if King Arthur’s
queen was every bit as heroic as he was? Find out by immersing yourself in this
epic story of the power couple whose courage and conviction would shape the
destiny of a nation.
Gyan is a Caledonian chieftainess by birth, a
warrior and leader of warriors by training, and she is betrothed to Urien, a
son of her clan’s deadliest enemy, by right of Arthur the Pendragon’s conquest
of her people. For the sake of peace, Gyan is willing to sacrifice
everything…perhaps even her very life, if her foreboding about Urien proves
true.
Roman by his father, Brytoni by his mother, and
denied hereditary rulership of his mother’s clan because of his mixed blood,
Arthur has followed his father’s path to become Dux Britanniarum, the
Pendragon: supreme commander of the northern Brytoni army. The Caledonians,
Scots, Saxons, and Angles keep him too busy to dwell upon his loneliness…most
of the time.
When Gyan and Arthur meet, each recognize within
the other their soul’s mate. The treaty has preserved Gyan’s ancient right to
marry any man, providing he is a Brytoni nobleman—but Arthur does not qualify.
And the ambitious Urien, Arthur’s greatest political rival, shall not be so
easily denied. If Gyan and Arthur cannot prevent Urien from plunging the
Caledonians and Brytons back into war, their love will be doomed to remain
unfulfilled forever.
But there is an even greater threat looming. The
Laird of the Scots wants their land and will kill all who stand in his way.
Gyan, Arthur, and Urien must unite to defeat this merciless enemy who threatens
everyone they hold dear.

Chatting with the Author
Kim Headlee lives on a farm in southwestern Virginia with her family, cats, goats, Great Pyrenees goat guards, and assorted wildlife. People and creatures come and go, but the cave and the 250-year-old house ruins–the latter having been occupied as recently as the mid-twentieth century–seem to be sticking around for a while yet.
Kim has been a published novelist since 1999 with the first edition of Dawnflight (Sonnet Books, Simon & Schuster) and has been studying the Arthurian legends for nigh on half a century.
I asked Kim what are the top ten writing tips, and here’s what she told me.
The twentieth-century author and playwright Somerset Maugham once was quoted as saying:
“There are three universal rules in writing.
Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.”
With all due respect to the highest-paid writer of the 1930s, here is what I’ve come up with:
1. Write now. Edit later.
2. Learn the rules that pertain to your genre—and understand them so well that you know when it’s best to break them.
3. Never give up.
I could fill out the list with other recommendations, but nothing else comes remotely close to those top three!
