Immortal Wounds by: Nicole Grane

Romantic Fantasy

 


If finding out she’d been bitten by a werewolf wasn’t enough to turn Phoebe’s world upside down, learning that she had a past life as a vampire certainly did! Marcus, a vampire and the former lover of Phoebe’s past life, still hungers for her. While Damen, a werewolf once responsible for Phoebe’s death, obsesses for her, reviling Marcus’s passion.

Phoebe comes to realize that the horrific dreams from her subconscious are truly glimpses from her past life. She must learn to accept the monster that now claims part of her soul and that her one true love would be the undoing of her mortality.

Set in modern day Northern England, Immortal Wounds captures the essence of a time where chivalry and honor reign supreme. It is a romance about timeless love, forbidden passion, and the overwhelming desire to have what cannot be yours. It's a story of one woman's quest to recapture a love from a lifetime ago and to find the courage within her to defend it.

Fire Gate by: Pendragon Inman

YA Fantasy

                                                Shinehah Saga book 1

In a world where a Mystic’s torn flesh is worth more than six month’s wages and death-auctions are whispered about in every Okoru city, seventeen-year-old Mystic twins, Wyan and Lor, are determined to change it all—and survive.

Despite straining beyond his physical limits (not to mention his already thin patience), Wyan never inherited his Mystic abilities, and so mastery of Lor's element would mean sanctuary for both of them. But when Lor's plan unravels, Wyan is forced to take action on his own before the last of their kind—and his family—are sold to their graves. Within a land of unforgiving Fire and Ice, Wyan must find the one ally and master-warrior he never would have trusted before: himself.

Pinehurst: by Nicole Grane

YA adventure-fantasy



After attending years of public school and for reasons unknown, sixteen-year-old Evelyn Hollyander AKA Evie, finds herself suddenly "dumped" at Pinehurst, a stuffy private school for the Mageia—the children of magic. Gone are the days of Geometry and Keyboarding, Evie’s schedule now consists of classes that teach defensive spells and charms against the deadly creatures of the Underworld. She discovers that her magical abilities are far more pronounced than that of her classmates, or even her teachers for that matter. She's forced into sixth period PE, boys only “boot-camp” for Slayers; and is taunted by some of the students for being the only female Slayer—ever!
   
But life isn’t all that bad. She has a ten alarm crush on Antonio, a hunky nineteen year old Slayer who is assigned as her personal trainer. She’s ecstatic until she realizes that Antonio can also communicate with her telepathically—translation: he can hear every steamy thought she has for him.

After learning that her father has been captured and is being held hostage in Hell of all places, Evie seeks help from Antonio and Havoc, a feisty pixie who Evie’s sure is evil incarnate. The three of them journey into the Underworld, battle two-headed vipers, a troll, and spiders that are big enough to suck your face off. She’s propositioned by the Lord of the Underworld himself. Proving more powerful than expected, Evie is an acquisition he must have—as well as his ticket to the Outer World. The bargain: the safety of her friends and the knowledge to save her father's life in exchange for an unthinkable price.
