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 man.

What People Are Saying About It
Completely sucked into this book....and that is no
pun towards the vampires involved. Everyone, religious or not, has heard the
major stories of the Bible....Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, and Samson and
Delilah. This book is an incredible spin off those stories.
Main characters Dika and Chrome are amazing. As
Dika who views herself as plain an ordinary in comparison to her sisters is
adored by her dragon Chrome. Any woman would consider herself blessed and lucky
to be described as Chrome describes Dika.
This book is action packed and now I am thoroughly
disappointed that I have to wait for the next installments!" –Jeannie
Christo, Goodreads reviewer
“This author is currently one of my new favorites! Her stories are fast paced and well
written. I had to force myself to put my
kindle down in order to sleep!” – Ashlee Vaughn 2012 Goodreads review
“Cool! It’s a great read!!” Tamara Beard

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 I have more please? - Mandymonkey – Amazon

“I was lucky
enough to read an ARC of Thunderstorm (Daughters of Eden) and all I can
honestly say about it is this:
WOW!!!
I wasn't sure what to expect at first...I think we are all a little nervous, picking up an author we may not have heard of before. Now? Yeah- counting my LUCKY STARS!
From the very first pages, J.M. Schroder has her fingers into you and you are helpless to escape!
This wasn't at all what I'd expected. I ADORE Dika! She grows and as she learns who/what she is, I felt like I, the reader, was right there with her.
I would also, RIGHT NOW, like to ask Santa to add one Chrome Jai to my Christmas list!
This story is truly an original and honestly, I'm not sure five stars is even enough to rate it! TEN STARS wouldn't get us half way there!
I'm telling you right now..yeah...YOU! That person who is reading this and waffling...make the purchase! You will not be sorry you did!!” – Lisa Morgan (Beta Reader) Amazon Reviewer

Biography
Jennie Schroder lives
with her husband and three amazing and energetic children in the beautiful Pacific
Northwest. She studies Court Reporting at Sumner College in Portland, Oregon.
Her love of writing took off in her junior high school years in Mrs. Eckert’s
Creative Writing Class. Now she is sharing the stories in her head with
everyone because there are way too many to keep to herself. If not writing,
seeking out readers, interacting and thanking her amazing supporters, or daydreaming
about her next story or being a very exhausted mother to 2 young boys and a
teenage daughter, Jennie loves most to be playing with her family – indoors and
out and reading.
