Author Bio:
Natalina wrote her first romance at the age of 13 in collaboration with her best friend, Susana. Since then she has ventured into other genres, but romance is first and foremost in almost everything she writes. She’s the author of seven romance novels that reflect the amazing diversity of humankind and the universal power of love.
After earning a degree in tourism and foreign languages, she worked as a tourist guide in her native Portugal for a short time before moving to the United States. She lived in three continents and a few islands, and her knack for languages and linguistics led her to a master’s degree in education. She lives in Virginia where she’s taught English as a Second Language to elementary school children for more years than she cares to admit.
Natalina doesn’t believe you can have too many books or too much coffee. Art and dance make her happy and she is pretty sure she could survive on lobster and bananas alone. When she is not writing or stressing over lesson plans, she shares her life with her husband and two adult sons.
Inspired by Art: The Edge of Revolt
About Inspired by Art: The Edge of Revolt
Inspired by Art: The Edge of Revolt is a collection of art throughout the ages, around the story of David. This volume focuses on the rape of his daughter Tamar by her half-brother Amnon; the assassination of Amnon at the hands of her brother Absalom; and Absalom’s revolt, trying to topple David from his throne.
These amazing sculptures, paintings, etchings, and manuscripts inspired the author to write The David Chronicles, a series of three volumes, the second of which is A Peek at Bathsheba, where she imagines the love affair and the ensuing scandal. Besides being an artist and having worked as an architect, she taught art history, and this collection served as the basis for a study course analyzing the contrasts in viewpoints around the amazing story of power struggle and love.

About Arydias Kainge and the Treasure of a Thousand Kings
After stealing a map that leads to a legendary treasure hoard, eighteen-year-old aeronaut, Arydias Kainge, joins the valiant crew of the Lammergeyer to hunt for the fabled treasure of a thousand kings.
When news of their secret quest spreads throughout a pirate-infested sky-port, the crew soon find themselves hunted by the most dangerous pirate of them all–the traitorous captain of the nigh-indestructible airship, the Iron Star. Outgunned and out-manned at every turn, Arydias and his comrades are forced to rely on their skill and cunning as aeronaut’s, as they take on countless dangers and otherworldly forces in hopes of evading their pursuers and reaching the treasure alive.
In spite of their efforts, things quickly go from bad to worse, and Arydias will be forced to mend his mistakes and prove his usefulness to his captain and crew, even if it means standing alone against the hidden horrors that lie between him and the ancient treasure.

Lolita
Love or stardom? Was there even a doubt what Lolita wanted?
But what Lolita wanted and what she got were two different things. When the notoriety that came along with fame was too much for her to bear, she seeks refuge in the luscious green Panchgani.
Advait Rana was a workaholic and a single dad. Balancing the two roles was not easy. The guilt of neglecting his ten-year-old motherless daughter made him decide to become a better father than he was. He takes a leave and heads toward Panchgani, little knowing that fate had other plans.
A chance accident changes their lives forever.
Born in simplicity, shunned for her ambition by her family, and shamed for her choice in men, Lolita was everything Advait wanted to avoid–for his and his daughter’s sake. Little did he know that it was this attitude that made him a target of the diva of the silver screen.
For Lolita was born to win over hearts.
