Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every young woman dreams of marrying a king. Everyone except for me. Because the king I am to wed has razor sharp fangs and a thirst for blood. All my life I knew I'd come of age during the Hundred Year Reaping. According to the ridiculous treaty, two human girls are sent to the faelands as brides for the fearsome fae king and his devilish younger brother. Not me. I was supposed to be safe. Two girls were chosen from my village already. But when they are executed for offending the king, my sister and I are sent in their place. What a mess. Then again, maybe it's not so bad. The younger brother I'm paired with doesn't seem as monstrous as I'd expected. He's delightfully handsome too. But nothing compares to the chilling, dangerous beauty of the fae king. And when my sister flees the castle and her terrifying husband-to-be, I'm left to marry him instead. If I go through with this, I might not survive my wedding night. If I don't, no one is safe, neither human nor fae. An ancient war will return, bringing devastation we haven't seen in a thousand years. Can I sacrifice myself for the good of my people? Or will a dangerous desire be the death of me first? If I don't lose my heart, the king will certainly lose his. I'll carve it out with an iron blade if I have to.

Book excerpt: Odette Brailly entered the nation's consciousness in the 1950s when her remarkable - and romantic - exploits as an SOE agent first came to light. She had been the first woman to be awarded the GC, as well as the Legion d'Honneur, and in 1950 the release of a film about her life made her the darling of the British popular press. But others openly questioned Odette's personal and professional integrity, even claiming that she had a clandestine affair with her supervisor Capt. Peter Churchill, with whom she had worked undercover in France. Soon she became as controversial as she was celebrated. In the first full biography of this incredible woman for nearly sixty years, historian Penny Starn delves into recently opened SOE personnel files to reveal the true story of this wartime heroine and the officer who posed as her husband. From her life as a French housewife living in Britain and her work undercover with the French Resistance, to her arrest, torture and unlikely survival in Ravensbruck concentration camp, Starns reveals for the first time the truth of Odette's mission and the heart-breaking identity of her real betrayer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the apprehension of King Stephen's murderer, a malevolent sorcerer named Rothbart, was sentenced to banishment by King Wolfe, both a friend and kind, forgiving ruler. While sending the madman off to his life of solitude, Rothbart vowed death and ruin to Wolfe's family and kingdom, vowing to return and finish what he had started, yet King Wolfe ignored the dastardly promise, watching him sail away into the distance of the open sea. Then, some days later, during the birth of Wolfe's only child, Princess Odette, his precious Queen Fleur was lost to childbirth, and both Kingdoms were burdened by tragedy and despair. Rumors flew of insecurity among the townspeople who feared the living ruler's fragility after the loss of their spouses. Queen Edythe and King Wolfe formulated an unsteady pair of leaders, striking that the sole path to strengthen their forces was through that of their children. An agreement of betrothal was carried out between the two for Queen Edythe's son, Prince Gabriel, to marry Odette after her 25th birthday, drawing the two kingdoms together in power, and in a new direction. Gradually, ages passed without a threat from Rothbart, or any suspected followers. However, the lingering of those ominous words still circled as a troublesome reminder that someday, perhaps, Rothbart would return. Though the two children fell in love during the time they spent together, what transpired on that fateful wedding day proved to be a race against time to save the life of the princess and the throne from Rothbart's sinister plan. Ultimately, only one thing could save them all from Rothbart's rule, and that was love.
