Book excerpt: A woman discovers an impossible connection that transcends time and place in this stirring, unforgettable novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Memory Thief. “A splendid mix of time travel, romantic yearning, and moving on after grief.”—Publishers Weekly Isabel Griffin has done her best to move on since her boyfriend, Max Adair, vanished without a trace eight years ago, leaving her heartbroken—and pregnant. Eerily enough, this isn’t the first time someone Isabel loves has gone missing. When she was sixteen, her mother disappeared, and her father became obsessed with finding his long-lost wife—at the expense of parenting Isabel. Determined not to repeat her father’s mistakes, Isabel works hard to become a respected archaeologist and a loving mother to her daughter, Finn, a little girl with very unusual abilities. But while Isabel is on a dig in Barbados, she receives a disturbing phone call. The hauntingly familiar voice on the other end speaks just four words—“Isabel. Keep her safe.”—before they’re disconnected. Isabel tries to convince herself that the caller can’t possibly be Max. But what if it is, and Finn is in danger? As one mysterious event after another occurs, she can’t shake the feeling that, despite what everyone else believes, Finn’s father is alive—and he’s desperately trying to reach her.

And she trembled, not with fear, but with a desire that engulfed her very soul. On the treacherous border of Wales, Raine, the Black Dragon, rode his charger toward Castle Rhuddlan and the lady within. Illegitimate son of a Norman nobleman, his past was scarred by denial and mistrust, and now his future lay in the conquest of a fiefdom . . . and a woman’s love. As the battle trumpet sounded, Arianna, her Celtic pride unyielding, saw her dream take flesh: Raine, the enemy who inflamed her blood with desire; Raine, the lover she must gentle and tame, and then, as ancient hatreds threatened their lives, either cherish . . . or betray. “A wonderful read . . . I was hooked from the first page and the magic continues throughout.”—Johanna Lindsey

Book excerpt: Referred as "The feel of a New Harry Potter Epic Series" Soliza's new work, The Tales of the Dream Keepers: The Legend of the Dream Castle makes me think we could be seeing the birth of a new set of epic stories for young adults. This time instead of witchcraft and muggles the reader is enticed into a swirl of a story by an uncanny and wonderful cast of characters from the Interstellar Black Hole Vortex and the magical Gumdrop Mountain on Pandora Island 'somewhere' on earth. In the first tale, three brothers, Victor, Rudy and Walt, and the beautiful Britta face the evil SnitchSnatchers from the Black Hole Vortex who can steal your dreams, whishes, energies and desires. With the help of giant mice with names like Sir Thomas, Twitty and Tweet, and Zeek, a white horse who wants to be a zebra, the intrepid foursome must find a way to reach the Dream Castle on fabled Gumdrop Mountain and defeat the SnitchSnatchers. With wonderfully imaginative new twists and turns at every step the Dream Keepers Legend is one page-flipping story. I highly recommend it.
