Overview

What you thought you knew about the BIBLE
is about to CHANGE.
What if you found out you were the granddaughter of the first woman. No, not Eve, but Lilith? After 150 years Dika Edens, the oldest of 4 girls each destined to live forever finds out that very thing. She is not sure if it is a curse or a gift from the Gods. All she knows is the man that has informed her of this has way too much guilt on his shoulders regarding her and her past. Chrome is her Guardian, but that does not mean he can protect her from everything. He should be the first one to know that - since he is the one telling her that she must save the world.

My name is Dika, I am an American born Hungarian, Polish, Spanish Gypsy with a little bit of something special, born right here in the green state of Oregon, home of the Beavers. History would be changed in a matter of a few words spoken from the man that has been haunting my dreams. My sisters and I need to save the world, and if we don't, the Universe will cease to exist as we know it.

My name is Chrome Jai, Dragon Guardian to Dika Edens, created to protect her from the evils of the first human woman mother of mankind. I will protect her as she fights to save the humans, but her first assignment will be to make it through the first 48 hours and find her Aunt and her Grandmother.

We will go together to hell and back just to fix the mess of the Gods and mankind.

About the Author

J.M. Schroder lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and three children. She is a full-time student and runs her own notary business. She has worked in the legal field since she was 22 years of age.

JM has always loved to write. Her 7th grade English teacher encourage her to write after the death of a friend and the loss of her grandfather. She had told JM that it would help her overcome some of the grief that she felt and could not express in spoken words. To this day JM thanks Mrs. Eckert for the push.

JM's first published was a poem she had written about her daughter after she was born. It is still in print to this day.

In 2012, JM woke up from a dream and started writing this book and has not stopped really since. She loves it.

Her biggest hero, well besides her husband, is Anne Rice. That is the second person she attributes her writing to and her love of reading anything and everything she can get her hands on.

JM loves to read and research everything. Her husband calls her the human encyclopedia or actually wikiajennia. If she does not know something she looks it up and researches it until she is an expert ont he subject.

Editorial Reviews

I was curious, when I read the blurb, as to how this spin would be a successful PNR, but Ms. Schroder makes it work. There are some typographical errors, but I was so engrossed in the story that it didn't really matter much. The heroine, Dika, grows throughout the story and the hero, Chrome Jai, is protective and strong... I can't wait to read the next book. I didn't get enough of the Daughters... I almost wish I'd found Thunderstorm after the author had released a few more in the series... Can

Thunderstorm (Daughters of Eden) by J M Shroder is awesome. It is the first book of the Daughters of Eden series. After reading Chapter 1, it didn't take me long to get into it. I was hooked. It is an interesting book and I really enjoyed reading it.

This is a whole different outlook on Adam, Eve, Lilith and their lineages. It all goes back to the beginning and explains everything about them.

The story is a interesting twist on the what really happen in the garden of Eden and those that descended after, I am truly in love with the sisters and their dragons. Well wrote and cant wait for the next novel to be released

Angela Laylock

Thunderstorm is a fresh, imaginative, and convincing look at some of the oldest stories in human history. The way JM Schroder connects biblical characters with deities of other ancient cultures is presented in a way that makes you stop and wonder. The passion of her characters is undeniable and captivating both physically and spiritually. It leaves you feeling the strength and possibilities of love and courage, and begging for more!
