And a desperate refugee population from famine-stricken Nandala is growing within Villeleia's borders.Jiandra Stovy isn't planning on getting involved--she just wants to keep her parents' farm going so she can afford to raise her younger siblings. But then she finds a mysterious, magical blue stone on the same day a Nandalan arrow narrowly misses the new queen in the castle courtyard, and a vicious witchhunt ensues for the foreign assassin, sweeping up innocent, starving women and children in its wake. Jiandra has no choice but to turn to the Old Gods for help.Their response is clear: Take the stone, use its powers, and find the Nandal assassin.Jiandra sets out with two of Queen Solange's guards to hunt the killer, trusting that the Knowing power of the Omaja Stone will help her recognize him.

Book excerpt: LOOK WHAT THE CHIHUAHUA DRAGGED IN. When Karly wanders outside her mountain cabin into the snowstorm to see why her dog is going nuts, she's expecting an injured animal, not a muscular mammoth of a man who's unconscious and about to freeze to death if she doesn't drag him inside and try to tend his wounds. He's wearing only a few pieces of fur-and-leather armor--cosplayer or insane mountain man?--and his wild hair and beard haven't see a pair of scissors in a year or more. But when he wakes up and opens those amber-hazel eyes, Karly's too caught off guard to protest his lack of appropriate clothing.He doesn't speak English, so Karly uses her skills as a foreign language teacher (and a lot of charades) to teach him. She needs to figure out who he is, why he's dressed like a Skyrim character, what happened to him, and where he belongs so she can get him home. That plan goes awry when his story starts coming out in broken English, and he claims to be a Visigoth from the year 483. Other than that little glitch, he doesn't seem crazy, so Karly's not sure whether to take him to the mental hospital or the homeless shelter. Or, just keep him around and drool over his hunky physique, his sweet smile, and his lion's mane of hair. Plus, when her druggie ex-husband shows up high and hell-bent on manhandling Karly, it comes in handy to have a 6 foot 6 barbarian around to bounce him right on back to his Hummer with a bloody nose. Valamir is condemned to execution, and the dungeon guards are on their way to his cell. So when his captor's wife offers to use her Druidic powers to save his life in exchange for a pledge of undying love and loyalty to her, he sees no other way out. A quick blood-pact and hasty incantation later, he finds himself transported out of prison, trudging down a mountain in a blizzard and stumbling into the back yard of the most lovely guardian angel Wodin could ever have sent him. Karly is beautiful, smart, efficient, and caring--everything Valamir's ever wanted in a woman. Only problem is, she suspects he's either lying or delusional when he tells her where he's from, a huge barrier to winning her trust and love. He has to find a way to prove himself to Karly while protecting her from her ex-husband and praying the Druid priestess doesn't make good on her promise to call him back to her side forever.

Ellie Parker is a master at building walls around her heart. In the twenty-five years she's been alive, Dex Remington has been the only person who has always believed in her and been there for her. But four years earlier, she came to Dex seeking comfort and then disappeared like a thief in the night, leaving him a broken man. Dex Remington is one of the top PC game developers in the United States. He's handsome, smart, and numb. So damn numb that he's not sure he'll ever find a reason to feel again. A chance encounter sparks intense desires in Ellie and Dex. Desires that make her want to run--and make him want to feel. A combination of lust and fear leads these young lovers down a dangerous path. Is it possible to cross a burned bridge, or are they destined to be apart forever? *** In STROKE OF LOVE Kate Paletto runs a volunteer program in Belize for Artists for International Aid, where she deals with self-centered artists who use the program as a means to repair their marred reputations. She loves the country, the people, and what AIA stands for, but too many diva volunteers have turned her off to press-seeking celebrities altogether and left her questioning the value of the volunteer program. When she meets incredibly handsome and charming Sage, he stirs emotions she hasn't felt for ages, even though he represents the things she despises. Laid-back artist Sage Remington escapes his wealthy lifestyle in the Big Apple for a two-week journey of self-discovery to figure out how a guy who has so much can feel so empty. When he meets ultra-organized Kate, who lives her life the way he's always dreamed of living his, the attraction is too hot to ignore, but Sage is there to figure out what's missing in his life, not to find a woman. Every look, and every late-night chat in the romantic jungle brings them closer together, but Sage can barely think past stripping away Kate's misconceptions about him. Kate fights him every step of the way--even though she finds it hard to ignore the strikingly handsome, generous-to-a-fault artist who wants to do nothing more than right the wrongs of the world--and love her to the ends of the earth. *** IN FLAMES OF LOVE... As one of New York's Finest, firefighter Cash Ryder is always prepared. When a woman's car skids off the side of a mountain during a snowstorm, he's there to rescue her. Cash is totally focused on the woman's well-being, but within minutes of getting her to safety, he realizes that he's nowhere near prepared for the heat that rolls off of sensual, smart-mouthed, and stubborn Siena Remington. As a model, Siena Remington has dated some of the wealthiest, most handsome men in the industry, and she's made peace with the idea that most men are just looking for eye candy and they wouldn't know how to romance a woman to save their lives. When she's rescued by a tall, handsome stranger, she thinks that maybe, just maybe, she's found her own real-life romantic fairy tale--until he opens his mouth and everything that comes out is gruff, ornery, and aggravatingly sexy. Thrown together during an annual firehouse calendar photo shoot, the passion between Cash and Siena sizzles, and neither one knows how to control the flames. After an evening of verbal sparring followed by a sinfully sensual night, their darkest secrets are revealed--and so is Cash's warm, romantic heart. But Siena's secret might be too much for big, strong, always-prepared Cash to handle--and Siena is forced to choose between a man who's everything she's ever dreamed of and an opportunity of a lifetime. *** The Remingtons are the third installment of the Love in Bloom Series (Voted BEST BOOK SERIES by Supportive Business Moms, UK) written by New York Times & USA Today bestselling and award-winning author Melissa Foster.
