I loved every minute and every second reading it! these books are my all time favourites of 2013 ao far!!! S.R. Book three of this series has a pending publication date of 2014. She has received high praise, 2014 EPIC award winner, for highlighting the struggles of traditional Native American values and practices in a contemporary modern world, while meshing suspense with the supernatural, in the first two books of her American Indian series, Medicine Man, currently available at Wild Child Publishing ( ). Her writing career began when she meshed her love of the written word with her passion for her Native American heritage. She honed her writing skills first as an editor then teaching workshops on the craft of winning synopsis and query letters. Howen was born a storyteller, much to the amusement of her grandfather and the chagrin of her parents. A traditional naturalist, she stays busy working with wild life and cat rehab and rescue centers.

Howen lives in Texas with a dozen cats, two squirrels, one raccoon, one dog, and her daughter. Ī former military brat, then military spouse, S.R. Pursued by an ancient evil, and confronted with things that don't match the history he knew, his mission to change the past, to save the future, may have already failed. But when time's fickle finger pulls him into her web once again, he comes face to face with a person who shouldn't be on the North American continent for several more centuries. So many years in the past, his people should be safe from the ravages of the Europeans. His wife, Morning Dove, is ready to deliver his child, and the spirits have shown him that all is not right with the coming birth.

But life in the past is not as easy as he would like it to be. He's accepted his role in 33BC as The Chief of All Time. Shannon Running Deer left the present behind to live 2000 years in the past. Therefore the child is considered 'sent by Wakan Tanka,' through some element-namely the element of human nature. It is strictly believed and understood that a child is the greatest gift from Wakan Tanka, the Great Mystery, in response to many devout prayers, sacrifices, and promises.
