Ahe’ey
by Jamie Le Fay
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Epic Fantasy Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Morgan's feminist books didn't prepare her to deal with the
dashing Gabriel and the land of Ahe'ey…
Morgan
is a dreamer, change maker and art lover. She is a feisty, slightly preachy,
romantic feminist full of contradictions and insecurities. Morgan uncovers a
world where women have the power, and where magic is no longer just a figment
of her wild imagination. Sounds like a dream, but it may, in fact, turn into a
nightmare.
The
world of the Ahe'ey challenges and subverts her views about gender, genes, and
nature versus nurture.
The
strong and uninvited chemistry between her and the dashing Gabriel makes
matters even more complicated. His stunning looks keep short-circuiting her
rational mind.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT ONE:
It
took less than two minutes for Gabriel to knock on her door. “Surely you’re not
considering going ahead with the outdoor event?” He spoke faster, and his pitch
was higher than usual. “It’s much too dangerous. We have no way to control the
crowd or prevent an attack. I can’t allow—”
“You
can’t what, sir?” she said, raising her voice. She was furious. Her eyes were
spears ready to be fired without mercy. “Who do you think you are, to give me
orders?”
There
was nothing he could say or do. This confrontation wasn’t about the event. She
needed to show him that she was the agent of her own destiny and that he had no
power over her.
“Morgan,
don’t risk your life for anger and pride.” He lowered his voice and attempted
to reason with her.
“Great
advice from the person who placed my life at risk in the first place. Why don’t
you go and do your job instead? Aren’t you supposed to be leading my security
team? Do your job! Neither you nor the MRD will stop me from doing mine. I
won’t allow manipulation or bullying.” Morgan’s tone was cutting, almost feral.
“I
can’t let you risk your life,” his mouth twisted; his voice held a cocktail of
frustration and desperation.

EDITORIAL
REVIEWS:
"In
this romantic tale, a champion of women's empowerment stumbles on a hidden--and
seemingly perfect--society. A bracing mix of emotionally and intellectually
honest fantasy." – Kirkus
Reviews
"A
compelling and creative work of paranormal romance. Le Fey takes her characters
to places seldomly seen in fantasy fiction that readers will find empowering
and prescient. Ahe'ey is a fairly polarizing book. As an example of feminist
fantasy fiction, you won’t find much better than this. Ahe’ey is an
impressively thought-out story, with many original touches and a fairy-like
romance that will deeply satisfy readers of the genre." – Self-Publishing Review – ★★★★
"This
book is a thoughtful look at empowerment for women. At the same time, it's a
rollicking trip into a fantasy world complete with dragons, love and strength,
and ideas that really get you thinking. This book is highly recommended for all
ages." – HUGEOrange
"They're
flawed, real, and honest characters that can be easily related to. Ahe'ey is
the kind of novel society needs to read, to create inspiration and to make
people think. Ahe'ey is daring, complex, and honest. A must-read novel that
tackles heavy and real topics with a mix of serious and humorous, charm and
tragedy." – Reader's
Favorite
– ★★★★★
"Ahe'ey
contains a richly imagined world that raises complicated and timely questions
about our own. Jamie Le Fay's Ahe'ey is an action-packed love story that puts
forth a nuanced vision of gender stereotypes, body politics, and the dark side
of seeking perfection." – Foreword
Clarion
– ★★★★

OTHER PRAISE:
"Jamie
is a fine writer with a rich imagination and is able to convey her strong
feelings about women’s rights, feminism, gender equality and other important
matters of injustice, primarily because she keeps us involved with the characters
of her strong story.” – Grady
Harp, Amazon Hall of Fame Top 100 Reviewer, Vine Voice – ★★★★★
"As
a liberal and committed feminist who is increasingly frustrated by the
simplistic self-righteousness of my own side, and the belief that all that is
needed is for a few smart people to start a revolution, I found
"Ahe'ey" to be refreshingly multi-sided, while also maintaining its
core beliefs.” – E.P. Clark,
Author
– ★★★★
