Sometimes we are forged in fire. Other times we are burned.

 

Three years before the events of Chosen, Emmanuelle is a new White Elm councillor in a stagnant, overlooked role. When she and Peter are finally sent on their first assignment together to assist in crisis relief for a bushfire raging in Australia, she begins to find her voice and purpose – and Fate’s.

​

All proceeds of this ebook will be donated to WIRES (Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Service) and their efforts to rescue and rehabilitate wildlife affected by the Australian bushfires.

​

This short story ties into my existing YA/NA fantasy series The Elm Stone Saga. It contains references to animals hurt in bushfire conditions, which may be disturbing to some younger readers.
