I'm learning to embrace who and what I am, but there's one thing I can't face: the night Zak betrayed me. But even with the mysteries of our shared past hanging between us, I can't turn Zak away when he asks for my help. Powerful fae are going missing, and when he tried to investigate, Lallakai vanished too. Now he wants me to venture with him into the territory of the Shadow Court, but its bloodthirsty courtiers don't welcome meddling druids. Danger is gathering around us, seen and unseen. As we uncover incomprehensible clues about the missing fae, we realize this nightmare runs deeper than we imagined, and unveiling it means delving into the past-our past. If I abandon Zak now, he'll never make it out alive. But if I stay at his side, if I face the truth of that night, it will destroy us both. -- From the author of the best-selling Guild Codex books comes a new series that delves into the dark, dangerous world of druids and fae alongside two ravaged souls who may be exactly what the other needs ... if they don't kill each other first. Unveiled can be read as a standalone series or in conjunction with other Guild Codex series. For the full reading order, visit Annette Marie's website.

From New York Times best-selling author Thea Harrison comes a vintage contemporary romance, as originally published under the pen name Amanda Carpenter in 1994. Yvonne Trent was born into the world of Hollywood royalty. Effortlessly ascending to the family throne at a young age, she enjoyed a lavish lifestyle on par with her fortune and critical acclaim. From the outside, Yvonne was living the dream. Inside, she felt hollow. In search of a more meaningful life, Yvonne walked away from it all, determined never to return. Dubbed the Winter King due to his cold and ruthless manner, Adam Ruarke is the most sought-after director in Hollywood. His projects garner both popular and professional praise. Adam knows how to make an award-winning film and he knows Yvonne is the perfect actress to star in his next project—whether she wants to or not. An ultimatum may have brought Yvonne out of her self-imposed exile, but the sparring match between Yvonne and Adam has just begun. How long can they fight the growing attraction between them? When filming is over, will Yvonne leave again, taking Adam’s heart with her when she goes?

The seventh book in the epic fantasy House War series returns to a beloved world of magic and political intrigue, where new threats are stirring. Jewel ATerafin has never wanted to be a power. What she truly wants, she built in the streets of the poorer holdings. To protect what she built, to protect what she values above all else, she has accepted that power is necessary. But with power comes responsibility. Jewel has forced herself to do what would have once been unthinkable: She has surrendered her den-kin, Carver, to the wilderness, because she must if she is to have any hope of saving the rest of her family, and the city in which they dwell. But she cannot leave him with nothing. Into his hands, she has placed the single, blue leaf that came from the wilderness and the dreaming combined. She doesn’t know what it does or what it was meant to do—but it is the most powerful item on her person, and it is the only thing she can leave him. That leaf, however, was created to serve a purpose that Jewel does not understand. Nor does Carver, who now possesses it. With Ellerson by his side, Carver intends to traverse the wild Winter in an attempt to reach home—and the people who are waiting for him. There are those who do understand the significance of Carver’s gift, and the disaster that will prevail if it remains in his hands. But time is of the essence. These lands are not unclaimed, and the Lord of these lands is waking from his ancient slumber. Nor is the Lord the only threat. Firstborn, demons, and wild elementals are swirling around two mortal men in a storm that threatens to end the only chance the city of Averalaan has of surviving what is to follow.

We all have a valley to walk in our lifetime, yet what if that shadowed valley never ends? What do we do when our illness steals so much from us? Journey On: Through This Shadowed Valley is my journal, my journey. It chronicles my ups and downs, my doubts, my praises, and my dreams. I'm giving you an inside look at being newly diagnosed with a chronic condition and chronic pain. It's my hope that you find you aren't alone in the fight as you read my words and the words of six other people who have learned to live with their chronic conditions. Our illness may be a thief, but we can still live life to its fullest! I invite you to travel with me in Journey On: Through This Shadowed Valley. Together we thrive! “The blunt honesty that Daphne reveals as she struggles with fibromyalgia provides hope to those who deal with lifelong chronic pain. Her relationship with Jesus during the worst of times shows through our weakness Jesus shows his strength. If we lay our sorrows before Christ He will lift them from our shoulders just as He promised when He said “My yoke is easy and My burden is light” (Matthew 11:30). Daphne’s journey gives hope to those who believe they have no hope and that hope is found in Jesus.” Ann Allen, author of Out of Darkness “Journey On: Through This Shadowed Valley by Daphne Self paints a picture of chronic illness. The book’s daily descriptions of pain and loss are woven into the author’s strong faith, which sees her through the valleys of her disease. The book will help others who have chronic illnesses feel less alone as it educates all to the depth of suffering and daily struggles of those with chronic diseases.” Gail Pallotta, a Reader’s Favorite Award Winner and TopShelf 2020 Nominee “Daphne Self’s Journey On: Through This Shadowed Valley is an illuminating account of the daily struggles faced by fibromyalgia and chronic pain patients. The author finds consolation in her Christian faith, but this is a must-read for anyone with FMS who feels lost, confused and alone; or for their family members or friends. Helpful references are included where to seek more information. Fibromyalgia is a genuine disease, which recent evidence is confirming, and this “real and raw” book reveals its devastating effects on the sufferer.” Ronda L. Wells, MD
