Synopsis

New York City is only a hop, skip, and Ley Line jump away from the Fairy Lands. And if anyone can make it there, it’s Fairy Godmother, Evie Songbottom. Evie isn’t your childhood Fairy Godmother. She prefers whiskey to glitter, movies to wishes, music to just about anything. But she’ll need more than a bottle of Jameson and a bad attitude to guide her Charge, violin prodigy, Joanna Brennan. Born of fairy ancestors, Joanna caught her boyfriend cheating with her Juilliard roommate. Now, her magic-tinged sorrow is flooding New York with disaster. Evie will have to navigate the treacherous landscape of Joanna’s wounded soul, and her own forbidden new love, before Joanna’s grief rips apart the fabric of all the worlds.

About the Author:

Born in Moldova in the former Soviet Union, Izolda grew up steeped in the rich musical and magical heritage of Eastern Europe. After her family immigrated to the USA, they settled in Michigan where she graduated from the University of Michigan with an English degree. She worked for the National Geographic Society's Educational Media division and as an environmental educator at NASA. She still sometimes flies around the world as a NASA consultant and Earth Science educator. She released her first book, "Life Elements: Transform Your Life With Earth, Air, Fire, and Water" in 2008. More recently, she combined her love of music, travel, and the mystical and published the first book in the Fairy Godmother Diaries series, "The Fiddler's Talisman" in 2011. Book two of this series, "The Piano's Key," delves more deeply into music, magic, travel, and good old fashioned love. In 2011, she wrote, directed, voiced, and created the movie, "Breathable: NASA Monitors Our Changing Air Quality," for NASA. Earth science and teaching about the Earth are two of Izolda's passions. She spends much of her time as The Earth Lady doing outreach and education in schools all over the world. She practices and teaches yoga and Tai Chi and is a first-degree black belt in aikido. She and her husband reside in Greenbelt, MD with their dog and three cats, and a house full of books, juggling clubs, and musical instruments.
