Leonard D. Hilley II grew up a quiet, shy kid with an inquisitive mind. Learning to read at an early age, he fell in love with books. He read every book he could get his hands on and stacks of dark comics about ghosts, monsters, and creepy things that stalk the night.
Like a lot of boys, he caught beetles, wooly bears, butterflies, and had an ant farm. When he was ten, his interests in science increased even more after seeing a professor's insect collection. Soon he set out on his quest to build his own collection. He also learned to rear butterflies and moths to obtain perfect specimens. He learned botany, gardening, and set his goal to become an entomologist.
At eleven, he saw Star Wars at a VIP viewing room in the cinema. His imagination soared. Soon after, he discovered Roger Zelazny's Chronicles of Amber. Six months later he had written the first draft of a novel. A novel he later discarded, but the characters stuck with him. Years later, these characters came to life in Shawndirea, which Hilley had intended to be a novella for Devils Den. The characters, however, refused to be ignored and took the opportunity to unveil Aetheaon in their first epic fantasy. Lady Squire: Dawn's Ascension was quick to follow.
Shawndirea was Hilley's farewell to butterfly collecting, and those who have read the novel understand why. He has taken Ray Bradbury's advice to heart: "Follow the characters." He does. He follows, listens, and take notes--often never knowing where they're going to take him, but he's never been disappointed in the results.
Hilley earned a B.S. Biology and an MFA in Creative Writing to combine his love of science and writing.

Allegiance Comes With A Price
The darker unmapped regions of Woodnog Swamps are shrouded by the dangerous and often magical mysteries of the Shadowfae. These swamps are where foolish travelers venture, never to be seen again.
Roble's quest requires that he journey deep into the Woodnog Swamps to confront the god, Lez'minx. Through trickery and temptation, Roble accepted Lez'minx's gift of two magical rings, and soon learns of the deceitful enchantment; but not until after he finds the rings permanently attached to his fingers. Roble plans to meet the god and demand the spell binding him to Lez'minx be broken forever. But no one should ever order a god to do anything. Since such a confrontation would put Roble's life at risk, Shawndirea and Lehrling insist on traveling with him. The dangers are too great for a human from the Overlands to undertake alone.
But the faery, Shawndirea, has secrets she's not yet revealed to her human husband, Roble. Her secrets might cost her own life. After renouncing her right to the throne of Elvendale in the Seelie Court, the Unseelie Court has not extended a welcome to her into the Courts of Chaos. Shawndirea finds herself an outcast and possibly viewed as a potential enemy to both Courts. Traveling deeper into the swamps means she'll cross into Unseelie territory and without a proper invite, she risks everything to help protect the man she loves.
