About the author

Nicole MacDonald

Nicole MacDonald is a forty-something Kiwi book addict who accidentally became a novelist after reading one too many stories that didn’t quite scratch the itch.<br>What began as scribbles to capture the kind of tale she wanted to read turned into&nbsp;<em>the BirthRight Trilogy</em>&nbsp;— an epic fantasy romance starring women who don’t wait to be rescued.<br>For research, Nicole spent six months learning how to actually swing a longsword (and, occasionally, a punch).<br>Now she’s juggling multiple worlds, characters, and creative side projects — which is probably safer for everyone than letting her near another sword.
