Cia Vale is now seventeen and has everything she ever dreamed of: a boy she loves, a place at the University and a future as one of the leaders of the United Commonwealth.
Ever since she can remember, Joelle has loved telling stories. As she grew up, she
started performing those stories on the stage. After graduating from Millikin
University with a Bachelors Degree in Vocal performance she continued onto
DePaul University for her Masters Degree in Opera Performance, and from there
went on to perform across the Chicagoland area in a variety of operas and musicals.
She never dreamed of writing a novel, but one day she had an idea and started to
write.
