ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: The Girl with Stars in Her Eyes Series: Firebird Series #1 Author: Dawn Ford Publisher: Expanse Books Release Date: April 12, 2022 Genre: YA Christian Fantasy Eighteen-year-old servant girl Tambrynn is haunted by more than her unusual silver hair and the star-shaped pupils in her eyes. Her uncontrollable ability to call objects leads the wolves who savagely murdered her mother right to her door. When she’s fired and outcast during a snowstorm, her carriage wrecks and she’s forced to find refuge in an abandoned cottage. There, her life is upended when the magpie who’s stalked her for ten years transforms into a man, Lucas. He’s her Watcher and they’re from a different kingdom. His job is to keep her safe from her father, an evil mage, who wants to steal her abilities, turn her into one of his undead beasts, and become immortal himself. Can they make it to the magical passageway and get to their home kingdom in time for Tambrynn to thwart her father’s malicious plans? Or will Tambrynn’s unique magic doom them all?

EXCERPT

Cook scowls. “You insolent, stupid, girl.” She spins and throws me back against the
sturdy block table. Her reddened cheeks puff out with every heaving breath she takes. To focus, I
stare at the mole on the side of her face. A dark hair sticks out of the center like a cat’s whisker.
“This is what impertinent maids get.” She flips the metal arm holding the kettle over the
flames outward. The stew splashes and sizzles down the side of the black pot. Cook yanks me
away from the table and thrusts my hand over the bubbling contents. I clench my fingers
together, but the steam still blanches my skin.
In a flash, I call out with my mind. It’s instinct. I can’t stop it. My eyes burn and I blink.
White light explodes behind my eyelids.
A butcher knife from the table sails through the steaming air. Cook’s eyes bulge as the
knife flies past and thuds deep in the wall behind her. Blood drips down the side of her face
where the hairy mole once was.
