2015…
All her life, Myra Farrow has been obsessed with medieval castles—and the kings and princes who once inhabited them. Now, wealthy videogame designer Steve Bernard wants her to model for a princess character in his new game. Myra can’t resist his offer, especially when she learns that Steve plans to film inside the mysterious Hue Castle—a cursed, barren, colorless place forbidden to visitors for centuries. But unknown to Myra, her soul is bound to Hue Castle by blood and sorcery. When she enters its doors, she awakens dark powers that will reach through time—stealing her past, torturing her present, and rewriting her future.
1415…
Edward Hue, the last of the Hue royal bloodline, has never stood in the sunshine or held a living flower. Cursed from birth to live in darkness and bring death to all he touches, he is at the mercy of his cruel, tyrannical father, who will not rest until he shatters Edward’s soul and makes his son into a diabolical copy of himself. Edward’s one hope is the mysterious woman who haunts his dreams—who will either break his curse and bring him out of the darkness, or destroy him utterly.
For Myra and Edward, past and future collide in a tale of love, obsession, betrayal, and the hope for redemption.
History, art and literature are my passions. I love digging out information about prophecies, divine miracles and paranormal events that are mentioned in history and holy books, that don’t sound possible in today’s modern world.
Since childhood, I have been into reading and writing—and yes, it can’t happen without imagination, which luckily has no boundaries. Dance and music are also pastimes I enjoy, as well as reading romance fiction. I love to travel and explore historical cities.
“A Prayer Series” is my first story about paranormal events based on Islamic concepts.

Cassy’s Review:
***Copy of book received from author in exchange for an honest review.
Step into the magical world created by Samreen Ahsan. If you like, fantasy, time travel, paranormal, you will love this story. I was hooked from page one and engrossed all the way through. A very powerful, unique story, that will stay with you for a long time.
Myra Farrow has always had a thing for medieval castles and everything about those times including men. Modern men won’t do. Myra dreams of the men in her romances. She has her own blog, writing about all of her visits to castles. There is just one castle on her list that she hasn’t been able to visit. Hue Castle, said to be cursed and haunted, has been closed to all visitors for centuries. When she meets, Steve, a video game creator and has the opportunity of a lifetime to be the model in his new video game set in Hue Castle, she jumps at the chance. It doesn’t take long once inside the castle, to learn that Myra has some sort of connection to Hue Castle. She can see things no one else can. She can see a different time through a mirror and communicate with Edward Hue. Soon he’s all she can think about. Is she the one to break the Hue curse?
I just thought this story was fabulous. Haven’t read anything like it. It ends in a big cliffhanger and I can’t wait for the next book to come out. Well written with an amazing plot. Well done, Samreen Ahsan! 5 stars!
