Sometimes the butterfly brought her joy; other times, inspiration … but always a sense of hope. And she needed all three in this moment for her heart was breaking to see her man so broken." Sorcha just wanted to warn Ruairí of his fate until she saw him and fell in love.

Autorenporträt

W. L. Hawkin writes romantic adventures, often charged with "myth, magic, and mayhem" from her home in the Pacific Northwest.

Her Hollystone Mysteries series features a coven of West Coast witches who solve murders using ritual magic and a little help from the gods. The booksTo Charm a Killer, To Sleep with Stones, To Render a Raven, and To Kill a Kingfollow Estrada, a flawed magician and coven high priest as he endeavors to save his family and friends while sorting through his own personal issues.

Her latest release, Lure: Jesse & Hawk is small-town romantic suspense set in the American Midwest, in the fictional town of Lure River.

Hawkin graduated from Trent University with a BA in Indigenous Studies. Wendy went on to study English literature at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, and then teach high school. She found her voice publishing poetry and Native Rights articles in Canadian news magazines and is now an author/publisher at Blue Haven Press.

For the past few years, Wendy has been a book reviewer for the Ottawa Review of Books. A member of the Federation of BC Writers and the Writers Union of Canada, she actively engages with readers and writers at conferences, and is represented by Creative Edge Publicity.

As an intuitive writer, Wendy captures on the page what she sees (visual scenes) and hears (conversations) and allows her muses to guide her through the creative process. She needs to feel the energy of the land, so although she's an introvert, in each book her characters go on a journey where she's traveled herself. If you don't find her at Blue Haven Press, she's likely wandering the woods with her beautiful yellow dog.
