SHOW NOTES:
About Cyndi Brec
Cyndi has created two entirely different worlds within The Therans Series, which spans five books, two of which are prequels. The first book in the series, Secrets Beneath Scars, is set for publication on February 18, 2025. It is a tension-building, fight-for-survival high-stakes fantasy set against the mysterious backdrop of an Ohioan town—a slow-burn modern-day romance with an introverted yet fiercely loyal coming-of-age female heroine.
Cyndi Brec writes her heroine into dangerous webs of deception while she sips French vanilla iced coffee. She’s a five-star Readers’ Favorite, YA fantasy romance debut novelist and has snagged several endorsements from notable authors before the launch of her book series, The Therans. An avid reader turned writer, her background as a Recreational Therapy Technician, traveler, historical site owner, and legend sleuth provides a wealth of experience and perspectives that have deeply enriched her storytelling.
After marrying, she traveled to Europe and many of the States. However, Ohio is her home, where she and her husband raised two great kids and several energetic dogs. Her love of history was enriched by co-owning a 200-year-old historic watermill with her husband for over 20 years, which has fostered an appreciation of historical knowledge and cultivation of The Therans Series. The Kister Watermill is the backdrop to her story world.
Cyndi is currently working on an anthology and co-authoring a historical nonfiction book. This book will detail the Kister Water Mill and its historical accounts. After the restorations, the mill will be open for tours, and her books will be available in the gift shop. She also speaks on ‘Time Management Strategies for Authors Success: Managing Your Minutes,’ aiming to inspire fellow authors to live their dreams.
