Jewels In Time

Sage Publishing, 2024

The year was 1216, and Brianna's life changed the day her mother left to save herself from being burned as a witch. Brianna was left alone in her small English village knowing just enough magic to be labeled a witch herself, but not enough to survive on her own. Brianna knew she had to flee, but to where? She had to follow her instincts and escape the village. Ending up in the market town of Newark-on-Trent, she took a job as a kitchen girl and was befriended by Sir Michael, a knight in King John's court. Brianna was unable to hide her magic, and was soon accused of witchcraft which would have surely led to being burned at the stake. Sir Michael helped her to escape. After a frightening confrontation with their pursuers, Michael led Brianna to the home of Rowena, a kind and loving old woman, and a witch. Brianna learned from Rowena that she was the granddaughter of a most powerful wizard and his witch wife. They were helping to guide Brianna and Sir Michael from the magic realm. The magicians had the power to visit forward and past in time. With this power, they had banished Brianna's mother 700 years in the future to Dover castle during WWII, so she could not cause havoc in her abandoned daughter's life. Brianna learns magic along the way and the truth about her past, while always staying one step ahead of the King's men who would surely kill her.
