About the Author

J.C. Ahern has been an avid reader of YA, Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Action novels since she was a child. She's also a lover of video games, manga/anime, cartoons, and basically any "nerdy" thing she can get her hands on. In the eighth grade she decided she wanted to write her own stories instead of just reading/watching them, and after a Bachelor's degree in Creative Writing from Stephens College, and much editing and revision, her novels in the Strategy series were born. She continues to write at her rural home in Missouri, in-between coaching her niece's softball team, playing video games, reading, working as a Nurse Practitioner, and playing with her cats-Rogue, Quigley, and Sunny.
