Meet the Author
Avah Broc lives in British Columbia, Canada with her husband.
She writes to entertain and inspire people to pursue their goals and dreams. Avah thanks her family for their loving support, which has encouraged her throughout her creative journey.
Her passion for writing was shaped by her years as a schoolteacher and by raising her own three children, with whom she spent many hours reading their favorite books.
The idea for her series was first sparked by an 1884 French painting.
While sorting through old files from a retired teacher friend of her mother’s, Avah discovered The Song of the Lark, a painting of a young peasant girl listening to a lark at dawn.
She framed the painting, never imagining it would one day inspire the story of Raja. The girl’s quiet strength and enduring hope became a source of inspiration throughout the series.
From that spark of inspiration grew the Land of Rousse series, which Avah has devoted countless rewarding hours to developing and refining for readers who long to escape into a world filled with intrigue, suspense, and emotion.
When Avah’s not writing, you can find her being active in the outdoors with her husband and Australian Shepherd, finding inspiration in the calm and beauty of nature.
Above all, Avah believes that stories have the power to awaken courage, stir hope, and remind us that the most important journeys begin within.
Avah’s Australian Shepherd has become a faithful companion on many of her outdoor adventures. Whether hiking local trails or enjoying quiet days by the lake, those moments in nature bring balance, peace, and joy to her life.
