How do you fight dragons? Do you dare hold a sword against a master samurai? What if reality is just a thinly-veiled illusion? Kayla Odachi was alone, an orphan lost in the world, largely ignored by society. Odd occurrences have been plaguing Kayla ever since her mother's death. She has no idea the importance of her role in the secret war among the “gifteds” responsible for nearly all the atrocities in human history. It’s hard enough being a 16-year-old girl in a new school with a new crush. Can Kayla solve the mysteries surrounding her in time to save herself and possibly the world? Or better yet, can you? Praise for Eden Wakes: "This book is amazing! I loved the tight-paced plot, the well-developed characters, and just how action-packed it was." "I love Kayla. The main thing I like about her is she's real. [Too] many times in books where a female is the protagonist, she's either weak and needy or so independent that she's unappealing." "The premise of this story is amazingly thrilling. Kayla is such an endearing, complex young orphan who has already been through the wringer without much experience with even little pleasures of life...only to be thrown into the Twilight Light Zone." "James Patterson isn't the only one who should feel success by being good at creating a world where others can be a part of just by reading a book. And I LOVE JAMES PATTERSON!"

Bullying is observed in all species unfortunately, many humans have perfected it as an art form. My intent is to prevent this type of aggressive intimidation as well as transform those who have been labeled a "Bully." There is hope. This book is written for anyone who has ever been bullied. Perhaps it may have been in school or on a playground, or in your neighborhood. It may have been through phone texting or emails. Yes, bullies come in all sizes and all ages. I've seen bullying behavior in preschool as well as elementary, and high schools. College is no exception nor is the work place. I also dedicate this book to anyone who has ever been labeled a "Bully." Yes, you read this correctly. Bullies are people too. I have discovered that they are natural leaders in need of structure, direction, and a healthy dose of self-confidence. This book provides the reader with the tools necessary to prevent bullying as well as reverse bullying behavior. Ten simple rules are designed to help any classroom, youth group, or organization to approach this sensitive topic. Why hummingbirds? Well that's easy. Hummingbirds are most definitely bullies. They are territorial, they fight with other's of their own species, and they can be mean when it comes to food sources. They are amazing to watch. While protecting their food supply, they dive bomb the others often bending their long and fragile beaks rendering them defenseless. Despite a large number of hummingbird feeders strategically placed in my yard, one very aggressive male became the main character of this story; "Billy the Bully."
