The world is in danger…The fabric of the Universe is unraveling… Magic has been corrupted, tainted, polluted by a malicious force with designs on world domination… The man made for her, her Mate, the only one she will ever love, is keeping something from her…and secrets are just as good as a knife to the back in a war where nothing is as it seems. There is no denying the pull she has on him, no getting away from the call of Fate that he lost all those decades ago. But she is hiding something, and in a world gone mad…secrets can be deadly. With the Fate of the world resting squarely on their shoulders, can this Guardian and her Mate save mankind and find their happily ever after?

Book Description

Will they be able to discover what true love is really like, or will the war tearing countries apart rip that opportunity from their grasp before they can venture forward in faith? Ember and Virginia are sisters living with their family in southwestern Montana with dreams that go far beyond the small farming town and its inhabitants. Ember Hirschel has little interest in men of any kind since her last attempted relationship ended in shambles--that is, until she meets the charming Lieutenant LaHaye, who quickly steals her heart and leaves her wondering what a future would be like with him by her side. But life in 1941 is not easy, especially for a young couple whose lives could easily be torn apart by the war raging on between nations. When disaster strikes and leaves Ember with little to cling to, will her faith and trust in God bring her and the people she cares about into a safety net of happiness and peace? Though she loves her job as a nurse in her small hometown, Virginia Hirschel longs for excitement and maybe even a handsome young beau to bring some adventure to her rather dull life. When her qualifications as a nurse are called into question, Virginia begins to wonder if she was ever meant to care for the sick and dying. And when a handsome young soldier makes it clear he wishes to court her, Virginia couldn't imagine a more tempting prospect. But maybe Virginia's plan for her life isn't the same as God's plan for her future. Accepting and acknowledging that reality are two different things. And when faced with a crisis in her new relationship, will Virginia choose to persevere in faith or let go of the dreams she once thought impossible?

Book Description

In her middle years, the mining dwarf Ember is well set in her ways. Her position as the master blacksmith of Eldur Hollow is a surety that has never been challenged. However, after Ember sees a green light cross the sky, she swings her hammer in her forge and sets the whole burrow ablaze, destroying all she has worked decades to create. Unbeknownst to any in Ambergrove outside the forbidden lands, the Age of Magic has begun. Kaenye, the god of fire, is Ember’s only hope at learning how to control her newfound magic and return to the life she’s always known. With nothing but meager supplies and a command to find a woman in a red dress in Port Albatross, Ember leaves her home behind and ventures into a world that distrusts her and the destruction that unwittingly comes at her hands. Ember is a maker, but harnessing her magic and convincing those she meets—and herself—that fire magic is not something to fear is a task for a giant, not a mining dwarf. As Ember relearns how to live, she also learns that magic has a purpose, and she is not the only one who needs to learn how to harness her fire. This mining dwarf has her heart set on returning to the forge, but as long as there is an ember, the fire will burn—and the life within the flame is not always what we expect.

And that night, determined to find her, Penny breaks the rules. She burns in secret. And she discovers that all isn’t as it seems in Life or Death. Her journey leads her to Malin, a devastating lord with too many secrets; to Alice, a mysterious captive prophet; and to a rebellion brewing in the shadows beneath the city.

Book Description

From the New York Times–bestselling author of the Xanth novels: An epic drama of two souls whose tragedies and triumphs span human history. Piers Anthony’s Isle of Woman is a monumental epic of unprecedented drama and scope, retelling the saga of humankind in a unique and dramatic way. The culmination of more than a quarter century of research, it is a stunningly ambitious achievement from a master of imaginative fiction. At once grand in scope and intimate in human detail, Isle of Woman tells the story of a man and a woman born at the dawn of human history, separated by fate, yet united by an unquenchable passion that even time could not conquer: Blaze, the fire worker who raised his kind of savagery, and Ember, the beautiful green-eyed woman who forever haunted his dreams. Through their eyes and those of their descendents, we witness humanity’s odyssey from savagery to civilization as they are reborn again and again throughout history. We share with these two eternal lovers an unforgettable odyssey of triumph, tragedy, and discovery that takes them from the African savannah to the ancient Middle East, from the South Pacific to the caves of northern Europe, from the court of imperial China to India during the British Raj, ending in a stunning reunion in an America in ruins only a few short years from now.
