But these powers come at a cost. The girls are bound to serve the Fates, and their first mission sends them back in time to Marie Antoinette’s Paris and eventually, into the chaos and war of the French Revolution.Timespell Excerpt: Angie
With a flick of her wrist, Angie lit the candelabras lining the
wall. She shouldn’t have gone this far into the backstage labyrinth
of the opera house without Kaitlyn and Julia. Listening to them
fight, hearing the loathing in Kaitlyn’s words, made up her mind.
She had decided to slip away on her own. And now she couldn’t
go back. Not when she sensed the magic drawing her forward. Its
pull was irresistible.
She turned a corner, lifting her hand to release a shimmer of
light. It trailed to where the hall opened up to reveal a stage. She
had circled the entire opera house.
Despite the layers of her gown, Angie shivered. The magic
grew stronger with each step she took. Her eyes slid closed as
her entire body pulsed with warm energy that swelled inside her,
filling her like a breath that wouldn’t end.
The music from the masked ball became louder as she neared
the stage. She took another step then froze at the sight of a door.
Beneath it, light shone against the gloom.
Light. And the shadow of footsteps.
Her heart buzzed behind her ribcage as she raised her hand
again, opening the door with a gentle nudge of magic.

As I wrote Timespell, I hadn’t expected to hear three girls telling me their stories at once, but that’s exactly what ended up happening.
Angie, Daughter of Past:
Sweet, responsible, and well-mannered. Angie always has a smile for a friend, and she still likes doing things that are supposed to be for little kids, like building sand castles, swinging on the swings, and jumping rope. She has known about her destiny as a Daughter of Fate her whole life, and takes her duties very seriously; she tries very hard never to use the magic for selfish reasons. Her room is always neat and tidy, her favorite treats are fresh-baked vanilla cookies, and her favorite things to do are read, go to the beach, and cheerlead.
Julia, Daughter of Present:
Absent-minded, sarcastic, and a bit of a goofball. Julia is a loyal friend who will stand up and fight for someone she loves. She only discovered the magic of the Fates recently, and she uses the magic whenever she can to make life easier. Her room is always a cluttered mess and she never makes her bed, but she hopes to learn a spell that will change that, too. Her favorite treats are gummy candies, sometimes sweet and sometimes sour, depending on her mood. Her favorite things to do are listen to music, watch TV, chat online with her friends, and play on the internet.
Kaitlyn, Daughter of Future:
Hard, fierce, and every bit a bad girl. Kaitlyn appears cold and fearless, but beneath her harsh exterior she is a lot more frightened and alone than anyone sees. When she learns about the magic, she wants to use it to make herself stronger, and it doesn’t matter how she might make that happen. Her room is clean, but only because the maid keeps it that way. Her favorite treats are dark chocolate kisses, and her favorite things to do depend on who is around. Shopping, going to clubs, and partying are what she seems to like best, but her real favorite things are video games, watching anime, and reading manga.
Sometimes people ask if I have a favorite between them, and the truth is, I can’t pick just one because even though they’re all so different, I can relate to a little of each of them.
