A magical land that's falling apart. Peter Pan losing control. 1. A Curse of Gems: A Retelling of Toads and Diamonds Jaelle knows better than to trust any man in Terrefantome. But what happens when she has no choice? Or even worse…when she realizes he might have stolen her heart? Jaelle knows better than to trust men. Every girl in Terrefantome knows that. But when her plan to escape her oppressive kingdom with her sister goes awry, she finds herself with an unwanted magical gift and her sister in peril. To make matters worse, she's thrust into the company of a foreign prince on a strange mission. With no one else to turn to, Jaelle must choose between aiding him in his quest and receiving his help in return...or saving her sister on her own. Prince Lucas of Maricanta is on the most important mission of his life; if he fails, his kingdom will be overrun by an army of criminals. When his meddling mother follows him into enemy territory, however, dragging along some poor girl that she insists is his future wife, he must alter plans to protect them all. Jaelle and Lucas know his mother's plan to betroth them is far-fetched. They also know, however, that in Terrefantome, playing along with the sham engagement is safer by far. But with enemies closing in on every side and their own affections getting muddled along the way, Lucas and Jaelle must choose between the futures they've sacrificed for and the love of which they've always dreamed. 2. Neverland Falling: A Retelling of Peter Pan, Part I If Wendy and Peter aren’t careful, Neverland and everyone in it will fall. Wendy's parents have chosen her prospective husband, and her world is falling apart. So when the mysterious, handsome Peter invites Wendy and her little brothers to run away to a place called Neverland, she accepts. At first, Neverland is more wonderful than Wendy imagined. So are all the people who live there, from the Lost Boys to the mermaids to the fae to the misunderstood privateer, Captain Jay. But as time rolls on, Wendy realizes that growing up might not be so bad...if she had the right person to do it with. Unfortunately, growing up in Neverland is forbidden. And the farther she gets from childhood, the more she endangers them all. And when the fae decide she's gone too far, both Peter and Wendy must decide where their love and loyalties lie and how far they're willing to chase them. For if they're not careful, Neverland and everyone in it will fall. 3. Breaking Neverland: A Retelling of Peter Pan, Part II Wendy is determined to go back to Neverland…no matter what the cost. Peter has banished Wendy from Neverland, but she's determined to return to fetch her brothers. To go back, however, she'll need a miracle. Such a miracle will be costly, and Wendy must decide whom to trust and how far she’s prepared to go...as well as how willing she is to leave Peter Pan to his fate. Peter and the Neverstar are upholding a skeleton of the place Neverland once was. And without Wendy beside him, the effort seems doomed to futility. Just as he’s about to give up, though, redemption looms on the horizon…but it will demand sacrifice of monumental proportions. And while Captain Jay might be gone, his schemes haven't been forgotten. The more Peter and the captain and Wendy play their dangerous games, the more Neverland begins to crumble. Everything he loves is going to come crashing down, and Peter must choose which to save before he loses it all.
