Eileen’s Tale
About this audiobook
Eileen Spencer is over the moon. Her doting boyfriend, Eric Williams, has finally proposed to her after their three years of dating. However, things take a turn for the worse on the eve of her wedding, when she discovers that her parents are kidnapped by the malicious devils and devilines in the Underworld, propelling her, Eric, and their best friend Alexandria Richardson to set off on a rescue mission. Yet it is when the malevolent Underworldians capture them and force them to be their slaves that Eileen, Eric, and Alexandria realize just how much danger they are in. A tragedy befalls them, yet a ray of light manifests at the same time. Will Eileen save her parents before it’s too late, or will they be absent from her life ever since? Will she have her happily-ever-after, or will it be a bittersweet wedding with tears of joy mingled with regret?
About the author
Hermione Lee was born and raised in Taiwan, where everyone and everything in her life stimulated her rich imagination and inspired her to write. Although she prefers writing stories in her grandma's quaint, cozy home, she writes anytime and anywhere. To her, words are portals that whisk her to whimsical worlds of magic. When Hermione isn’t writing, she indulges herself in epic tales of fantasy, horror, and adventure; but mostly, dwelling in her reverie.
Hermione's life motto says a lot about her stories: Fight for what you believe in; believe in what you fight for. This sentence best represents her journey of becoming a writer. She waged a constant war against invisible enemies— self-doubt, self-discrimination, and of course, countless rejections. However, these struggles only strengthened her will to succeed and pursue her ambition. Along the way, Hermione learned to stick to her goals, have humility and perseverance, and stay loyal to her own beliefs. Her personality is strongly projected on the characters she created; firm, unyielding, and with a thirst to prove themselves.
When Hermione first started writing, she had eyes for only the fame and recognition accompanied by success; however, her opinions have matured greatly during the past few years. She continues to write stories nowadays, but out of sheer interest and passion rather than gaining profit.
