Book Description
Arch forces, led by a battle-weary Michael, find that they are outmatched by the hybrid threat Imperial as they must adhere to an archaic rule. Slave to an unbreakable rule, a warrior is commissioned. Not since Samson has a mortal been given such power. To end the abomination and to set the prophecy back on track, Jericho Bane is given the strength of a deity to put right the corruption that Lucien Arcane has set loose. From America to the Middle East, to the heavens itself and back, Jericho will learn love, sacrifice, betrayal, and loss while keeping the one rule of no sexual intercourse, lest he’ll lose his power. Under the instruction and tutelage of the only female archangel, Gabriel, he will persevere toward the inevitable meeting with the Imperial, culminating in a final battle for existence itself. Jericho’s journey will settle the question for all time, Did God lie?

Book Description
Librarian Syd Murphy flees the carnage of a failed marriage by accepting an eighteen-month position in Jericho, a small town in the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia. Her plans to hide out and heal her wounds fall by the wayside as she gets drawn into the daily lives of the quirky locals. When Syd gets a flat tire and is rescued by the town physician, Maddie Stevenson, the two women form a fast friendship—but almost immediately begin struggling with a mutual attraction. And, if that’s not enough, Syd is straight and going through a divorce—and Maddie somehow forgets to mention her sexual orientation to her new best friend. Almost everyone who crosses their paths believes it’s only a matter of time until they figure it out, but sometimes, it takes a while to see the obvious. Together, Syd and Maddie learn that life and love can have as many twists and turns as a winding mountain road.

Tales for those who never outgrew goosebumps Here are stories for lovers of chupacabras and hulders, griffins and gargoyles. Here be darkly cheery tales of ancient creatures beneath still waters, in the attic, or the shadows right by the bed. Herein an autistic hiker meets a cryptid who wants her camera; a Japanese tanuki seeks his fox daughter; and two women fall in love, never mind one's a swamp monster. Here be stories of changelings, nix, and demons adopted, of hungry kraken and cryptids we'd see if only, if only we looked into treetops, behind doors, or in our own back gardens. Here there be monsters. Thank all the gods.

A transit cop lies beaten and blinded, her service weapon stolen. A new series of graffiti tags are appearing, linked to an underground group calling themselves The Death of Kings.

The investigation takes him from flophouses, to city hall, to a clinic in the West Vancouver hills to a mega-mansion in the exclusive British Properties neighbourhood—along the way, crossing every ethical line the PI has drawn for himself. Even then, Wakeland may not be able to pull it off…

Book Description
"Lawyer Ralph Merritt buys a house in a white neighborhood bordering Harlem. In their reactions to Merrit and to one another, Fisher's characters—including the prejudiced Miss Cramp, who "takes on causes the way sticky tape picks up lint," Merrit's housekeeper Linda, and Shine, his piano mover—provide an invaluable view of the social and philosophical milieu of the times. Thematically, Fisher focuses on the idea of black unity and the discovery of the self. The biblical tale of Joshua is evoked to illustrate his concern for the black person's search for a "true nature." it is in this spiritual battle that the divergent segments of Harlem are drawn together in order to battle the "establishment" inside the walls of Jericho"--Publisher's description (a later edition).

Book Description
Sydney Cromwell is a prominent New York attorney. She has it all, wealth, prestige, and a fiancé, Marcus Rosenbaum, who can keep her in the lifestyle she is so accustomed to. Sydney is the most sought after attorney in the business, mostly because she can be bought for a price by the guilty. Sydney has never lost a case, and many guilty parties walk free because of her excellent representation. This, she takes great pride in. Needing to confront the demons from her childhood that are haunting her, she knows her only option is to return back to the beginning. With high expectations of finding the answers she so desires, Sydney heads to the small town in North Carolina where she was raised to see her Granny. She suddenly comes face-to-face with a plan God has laid out for her, in the form of a snow bank in the middle of a blizzard. There, she is rescued by a veterinarian farmer named Bo Turner. When Sydney wakes from the bump on her head, she finds she is snowbound on Bo’s farm that he shares with his young niece Olivia. As time goes by, waiting for the storm to pass, Bo begins to teach Sydney about true love and reconnecting with the God of her childhood. Could it be that Bo and Olivia’s love just might be the answers to all of the questions Sydney seeks? Can they find a way into her heart? Will Sydney go back to the life she has worked so hard for in New York, or will she choose another life with real love, that God has given her a glimpse of?
