Call Me Keeper

CALL ME KEEPER is the first of a Young Adult Fantasy series, complete with 10 inside illustrations. It features multiple BIPOC and LGBTQ characters and tropes such as found family, begrudging allies to lovers, quest, training montage, and reluctant hero. Rinnoway Bermudez's family has a dark origin, one she is determined to put behind her. But when a dragon egg washes up on the shores of her hometown, the call toward adventure and magic becomes impossible to ignore. Rinnoway is flung from one disaster to the next- first a shipwreck, then a dangerous pirate encounter, and worst of all, reunion with her long lost brother. The two of them realize they are both being hunted by a powerful, wicked entity and must work together to survive. Rinnoway is certain Wylem Bermudez is not to be trusted until he sacrifices his freedom for hers, allowing himself to be captured to save her. Unnerved by his immoral past, but refusing to lose him forever, Rinnoway and her young dragon set out across a conflict-ridden magical realm on a perilous rescue mission with a newfound group of allies, discovering much more about their destiny as Dragon and Keeper along the way.
