About
Stephannie Beman has been a storyteller since the moment she first learned to speak, an avid reader since before she could really read, a writer since she penned her first story, and a daydreamer on a mission. For her, fables have always been alive, fairy tales have lessons to teach, and myths are survivors of bygone years.
Stephannie, her husband, and two daughters presently live on a small ranch in Southwestern Wyoming in the original homestead cabin, far enough from the nearest neighbors to be considered a hermit and surrounded by a forest, meadow land, mountains, and a river which only fuel her already fertile imagination. When was the last time you built a fort in the forest to play in?

Or will his heart remain a shattered work of art that can never be restored?</p>
Story Behind The Book
After writing My Lord Hades I had a few requests to remove the sex from the book to make it a clean romance that people could share with their friends. So Persephone was born.
