Friends of the Lebanon Public Library held its third annual author fair, featuring 44 authors from Lebanon and throughout Oregon on Saturday, Feb. 28.
This year’s event included featured speakers and a scavenger hunt for a chance to win a book by one of the authors.
This was author Emerson Reign’s first time showing her series of “Season Sisters” books at the fair.
Reign, a contemporary dark romance writer, moved to Lebanon from Las Vegas with her husband in 2018.
Noting she was going through a dark period in her life and wanting to “pivot,” she decided to start writing a book and the story “just came to her” in 2022.
“It just evolved and the characters took on their own life,” she said.
Her saga follows the story of four girls who were kidnapped at a young age and then later separated from each other after they were rescued.
“The overall story is them finding love, finding healing from their past and then eventually finding each other again,” Reign said.
At the fair, Reign sold her trilogy series that included two companion books following one of the female main characters. She is currently completing her duet on the second female character, with plans for duets on the final two girls. Reign also has spin-off ideas she could work on once the girls’ stories are complete.
Her books can be found on Amazon.
