Firebird

 


Firebird


After the barn burns with her would-be lover inside, the teenage Princess Luella is resigned to the possibility of spinsterhood. She burns those too close to her - in moments of passion or anger. The reclusive life does not suit her vanity, but it does not remain quiet forever. Ten years later, a temper flare during a rare venture outside castle walls reignites the people's fear and the princess is even blamed for the drought that settles on the land. Facing a variety of threats, she has no choice but to accept marriage from a chilly foreign prince.

For protection.

For the land.

Yet, she also admits that he is a man "made for kissing," and her last attempt at that has resulted in tragedy.

Prince Metheus seems like the perfect match for the fiery Luella. He is calm and practical. He has no intention of making the marriage a physical affair. So, he never sees Luella as a threat to his life. All he wants is to cure the land and prove to the Mogochislenians that the people of Arrowspear are not barbarians.

Despite their decision to keep the marriage political, fate has a way of intervening. Common enemies threaten their lives and getting to know each other breaks down their pride.

Will Metheus finally reveal his true identity?
Will Luella, the firebird, be finally tamed?

What's certain is that they need to work together to survive.

The gist: alt-Medieval setting, demigods, avian shifter, witches, opposites attract, love after marriage, slow-burn to steamy romance

The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition (B&W)

    The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition (B&W)      480 Pages, 8.5X11”, Fully Illustrated These are the bits and pieces that make up a deep understanding of how our mind works. Welcome to the deep woods.     Psychology controls the biology of our brain. At the witch trials in Salem, when the accused were brought into the court, adrenaline and cortisol would have shot into the bloodstream of the spectators. Neurotransmitters would have surged through their brain. Their very brain waves would have shot up from 12 to 40 cycles per second. A P300 brain wave would have screamed “ALERT”. Their heart jumped.  A chill went up their spine. The girls began to shriek “Witch, Witch!”     We know this because the same thing happens in America today among those watching a Hollywood horror movie about witches, zombies, demons, murder and more. In varying degrees thi...

The Revenant's Mark

  The Revenant's Mark A dark historical fantasy novel set during the American Revolution Jacob Hawthorne was hanged as a traitor—forgotten by the cause he fought for, buried in a shallow grave by those he fought against. But death didn’t keep him. The forest brought him back. Now bound to an ancient and wild power, Jacob walks again as a revenant—something more than man, less than myth. Haunted by visions and a mysterious mark burned beneath his ribs, he joins two rebel soldiers on a perilous journey through war-torn colonies and spirit-haunted woods. As the Revolutionary War rages, a secret faction known as the Golden Circle seeks to harness the power of the forest spirits for their own ends—twisting the old magicks into a weapon neither crown nor colony can stop. Jacob must reckon with what he’s become, what he was brought back to do, and whether the soul of a dead man can still choose the right side. Epic in scope and grounded in grit,  The Revenant’s Mark  blends dark...

Peak Season

  Peak Season Author : Emily Harrison One winter. One chance. One desire that can't be denied. Lola Maxwell isn't looking for love, she's barely looking up. Reeling from heartbreak and a life that's never quite made sense, she takes a last-minute job with holiday company Powder White, at Le Grenier, chalet hotel tucked deep in the French Alps. It's meant to be simple: work hard, stay out of trouble, and avoid any man with a crooked smile and a snowboard under his arm. Then Harley Nash walks in. Moody, magnetic, and impossible to read, Harley has made a name for himself on and off the slopes. Once a rising snowboarder with a reckless streak, now he's the ski team lead at Powder White, doing everything he can to keep things under control, including himself. The last thing he needs is a new recruit with fire in her eyes and chaos in her wake. But Lola's not easy to ignore. And Harley's not nearly as in control as he looks. As the season deepens, so d...
