Time and events continually change the focus and fabric of the lives of Chikondra’s Minister Sirinoya and his lifemate, Deputy Minister Sandra Sirinoya. Clinging to their love and one another, they blend the responsibilities of unification and family with growing demands from across the Alliance for their unique combination of skill and experience in statesmanship. Alliance history careens along a perilous path. With only limited success, Zeteron strategies undermine stability of worlds within the Dil-Terra Interplanetary Alliance. Impatient, the shadowy enemy assumes new and ominous boldness. As Zeteron tactics transform into open challenge, many Alliance leaders are certain they face the looming threat of war. Despite dangerous risks, devoted diplomats continue the dogged pursuit of peaceful initiatives while keeping wary watch over events posing threats to the worlds they serve. They ponder a frightening concept. Does their planetary union possess sufficient will to resist what appears to be an inevitable march toward interplanetary war? All the while, increasingly troubling and terrifying events unfold. Questions begin to arise, even among Chikondra’s faithful spiritual guides. An ancient fairy tale comes to mind. Bits and pieces of an unsettled present seem oddly consistent with a long-ago legend. Does coincidence play games with the enchanted story? Or, does fable ring bells of tragic warning?

The New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author of the Coldwater Cove and Shelter Bay series crafts an emotionally powerful tale of a workaholic lawyer struggling with her unconventional family while also longing for a passionate love of her own. Fighting legal battles eighty hours a week has left Raine Cantrell burned out and empty. Although she once dreamed that success might make the father who walked away without a backward glance take notice, the high-power big city lawyer now finds herself feeling very alone. Then she gets an urgent call from three kids in trouble in her Washington state hometown, and suddenly Raine is returning to face unresolved feelings, unhealed wounds—and an unexpected desire. Sheriff Jack O’Halloran, a man with tragedy in his past and a six-year-old daughter to raise alone, has three teens barricaded inside a house and the media clamoring for a story. He isn’t ready for Raine to invade his territory—or his thoughts. And Raine isn’t ready for anyone to touch her heart. Unable to deny their attraction to each other, their solution is adult, reasonable—and totally foolish. They decide to have a simple affair. But they are about to discover that love is rarely simple—and that lives can change forever in a single heartbeat. “Few storytellers have JoAnn Ross’s magical touch for creating warm and memorable characters whose lives you delight in visiting. Like cherished silver, Homeplace just shines” (RT Book Reviews).

"In my career, I've helped develop and polish many good stories. Few have been as memorable and enjoyable as "Heart of Courage." Once the editor, but now a fan, I eagerly await the next book in the series." --Arlene W. Robinson, Freelance Editor The island of Tandori has seen more war than peace for as long as anyone can remember. A battleground for the foreign canine and feline peoples of Everlet and Hohleran, Tandori is also home to an indigenous race of lizards that remains neutral in the ancient conflict, but hardly dormant. The ever-changing tides of war soon engulf Rhomand, a young canine officer who finds himself engaged in a battle deep in enemy territory, fighting both for his own life and the life of his childhood friend, Ayana. As the war surrounding Rhomand rages, a threat surfaces that knows no mercy and respects no race. It attracts the attention of Veia, a powerful mage and keeper of arcane arts. The foreboding signs, stretching from common battlefields to the secluded lizard cities, lead to an undertaking that envelops not only Veia and her companions, but also an unsuspecting Rhomand and Ayana. Should they fail, the fate of their world will become shrouded in darkness.
