Leslie Michaels is a visionary, and only those close to her know of her special gift and the visions that come when her mind and body surrender to sleep. Fate has a way of righting many wrongs, and for Leslie it is a destiny that changes her life dramatically. But not before she is forced to flee into the wilderness to escape a murderous trapper bent on claiming her for his very own. Faith and a strong will to survive are her only companions, until she encounters Winnokin, the handsome Seneca war chief who first came to her in her dreams. Not only does he prove to be her rescuer and protector, he teaches her that tragedy can breed happiness and the passion to live and love deeply once again.

Hello everyone. I am so thrilled to be a part of Fatin’s blog and first want to extend a very gracious and heartfelt thank you to her for allowing me to participate. Like you, I lived for reading … it filled many long and lonely evenings when I was raising my children and much later on when my marriage came to an end.
I’m a true believer that when tragedy strikes and you’re standing on the edge of that precipice and all you see is darkness looking back at you, faith lies in knowing one of two things will happen. You can either let fear consume you or, you can take a leap of faith and learn how to soar like an eagle.
Wind Warrior first came to life 12 years ago when I was meeting my greatest challenge to simply survive head on. I received so many rejections throughout that time frame I nearly gave up on my dream. That is, until I realized it just wasn’t my time. I needed to live through and get beyond the pain in my own life before I could transform that experience into the kind of passion and emotion I wanted my readers to feel personally through my writing.
Wind Warrior is book one of five of my Iroquois series and will officially be released by Tate Publishing June 15th. It is, however, available now for purchase through Tate’s website. I hope readers find it as enthralling to read as it was to research and bring to life. Book two Captive Heart is expected to be released the end of this year.
Now that the writer in me has been unleashed, stay tuned for future projects which will include a series introducing contemporary shape shifters and two mainstream romance thrillers entitled Pawn For Malice and The Keeper’s Watch.

Hi Cynthia,
I’m glad that something positive came out of your despair!
My oldest son (now 24) became ill on his 5th birthday. We thought he had leukemia or some other dreadful blood disease. He had to endure a lot of tests. Luckily , they discovered an autoimmune disease. It brought our whole family together and we appreciate each other and everyday that we are blessed to experience.
I’d love to read Leslie and Winnokin’s love story! I’ve never read any books about the Iroquois Nation.
CONGRATS on your book Wind Warrior!
