She's the One Who Cares Too Much 

(Book Two of the War Stories of the Seven Troublesome Sisters)

by S. R. Cronin

Coral, the second of seven sisters, has been hiding her affair with the perfect man until her older sister can get her life together. But the perfect man is getting impatient and now she’s gotten pregnant. Coral decides it’s time to consider her own happiness.

But what does she want? The perfect husband turns out to be less than ideal. She adores the small children she teaches but the idea of being a mother fills her with joy. Meanwhile, her homeland is gripped by fear of a Mongol invasion and she can’t stop crying about everything now that she’s with child.

Then a friend suggests the ever-caring Coral possesses a power well beyond what she or anyone else imagines. Does she? And why is the idea so appealing?

When Coral’s big sister loses faith in the army and decides to craft a way to use magic to save Ilari from the Mongols, she decides Coral’s formidable talent is what the realm needs. Can Coral raise a baby, placate an absent military husband who thinks he’s stopping the invasion, and help her sister save her homeland?

The next time we met, he urged me to make our courtship public.

“We’ll largely stick to the truth. Say we met when I came to your school and that we’ve written a few times. Very proper. Tell people I’ve come to Vinx to court you a few times and now I’ve invited you to come to Lev so we can get to know each other better. Perhaps to celebrate Noruz? All women find the start of spring to be romantic.”

“No, not for Noruz,” I shook my head. “My oldest sister has been seeing someone and she hopes he’ll propose to her while they celebrate Noruz. She is the oldest and I’d like to let her have her moment. Then once she announces her engagement, we’ll proceed. Please. It’s just a few more anks.”

He agreed, but I could tell he wasn’t happy about it.

“Who is this person she’s marrying, anyway?” he asked. 

I froze. I’d kept the identity of Ryalgar’s suitor to myself for a lot of little reasons. At first, it seemed a private family matter and I didn’t want to subject my sister to embarrassment if the relationship didn’t work out. Then, once Davor proposed, I feared he’d somehow be insulted to learn he might not be the highest-ranking son-in-law in the family. Now, I simply didn’t want to have this discussion.

“He’s just some man she likes.” 

“Well, that’s good. I hope the two of them get on with it so we can do the same.”

Sherrie Cronin is the author of a collection of six speculative fiction novels known as 46. Ascending and is now in the process of publishing a historical fantasy series called The War Stories of the Seven Troublesome Sisters. A quick look at the synopses of her books makes it obvious she is fascinated by people achieving the astonishing by developing abilities they barely knew they had.

She’s made a lot of stops along the way to writing these novels.  She’s lived in seven cities, visited forty-six countries, and worked as a waitress, technical writer, and geophysicist. Now she answers a hot-line. Along the way, she’s lost several cats but acquired a husband who still loves her and three kids who’ve grown up just fine, both despite how odd she is. 

All her life she has wanted to either tell these kinds of stories or be Chief Science Officer on the Starship Enterprise. She now lives and writes in the mountains of Western North Carolina, where she admits to occasionally checking her phone for a message from Captain Picard, just in case.
