Book Description
When Princess Cassia Rose fled her home world of Eturia to escape an arranged marriage, she had no idea her sudden departure would spark a war. Now after two years hiding as a ship hand, she is finally returning to her beloved home but not in the way she imagined. Shackled by bounty hunters, she is violently dragged back to account for her crimes. Her only solace is that the Banshee crew managed to evade capture, including Kane Arric, her best friend...with occasional benefits. Meanwhile, Kane and the rest of the crew of the Banshee plan a desperate rescue mission. But when they arrive on Eturia, Cassia isn't exactly in need of heroics -- she's claimed her birthright as Eturia's queen, but has inherited a war-torn planet simmering with rebellion. Cassia must make alliances, and Kane, the bastard son of a merchant, isn't a choice that will earn her any friends. Kane knows he will never find someone to replace Cassia -- and is certain she returns his feelings -- but how can he throw away his own promising future waiting on a queen? When the outer realm is threatened by the dangerous Zhang mafia, Cassia, Kane and the rest of the Banshee crew uncover a horrifying conspiracy that endangers the entire universe. In the face of unspeakable evil, Cassia must confront her own family's complicated legacy on Eturia and decide once and for all who her real family is.

Fast-paced adventure, found family, intrigue, and enemies-to-lovers romance combine in an action-packed young adult novel for fans of Firefly. Solara Brooks needs a fresh start, someplace where nobody cares about the engine grease beneath her fingernails or the felony tattoos across her knuckles. Still, off-world travel doesn't come cheap, and Solara is left with no choice but to indenture herself in exchange for passage to the outer realm. She just wishes it could have been to anyone besides Doran Spaulding, the rich, pretty-boy quarterback who made her life miserable in school. The tables suddenly turn when Doran is framed for conspiracy on Earth, and Solara cons him into playing the role of her servant on board the Banshee. Given the price on both Doran and Solara's heads, it may just be the safest place in the universe. It's been a long time since Solara has believed in anyone, and Doran is the last person she expected to trust. But when the Banshee's dangerous enemies catch up with them, Solara and Doran must come together to protect the ship that has become their home—and the eccentric crew that feels like family.

Since then, the peoples of Eos have long-forgotten their dark history, until signs of a new Cataclysm begin to appear once again...It began with the bleeding star. A strange, bright-red streak across the sky that some viewed as a sign of fortune, others as a stark omen of bloodshed.The secretive Magisters of the Grand Repository are hunted down and slaughtered by unknown forces. The seas turn to blood, and fresh corpses go missing in battle. Peasant children are lured away by strange, ghoulish whispers into the woods, never to be seen again.Katryna Bower, the runaway daughter of King Giliam Bower, is forced to return home after her mother dies suddenly and father is poisoned. Old traumas run deep however, and Katryna must confront her painful past and estranged family before she can uncover the twisted plot against her House.King Emery Blacktree agrees to end a bitter border dispute with the House Seynard by marrying his only daughter to the despisable Seynard prince. Emery's objective is to maintain peace, but all is quickly shattered at the royal wedding as his wife's fears consume her and slanderous secrets are revealed. How far will Emery go to avoid a civil war?Up north, Tomas and Rilan, two naive peasant boys from a small village, are conscripted into the army of the Broken Coast, and thrown into the horrors of an invasion by a foreign empire.

Book Description
Come away with the perpetual wanderer on a journey through ice! In defiance of her mother, Tierahna (Tierney, if you want to stay in her good graces) runs away from the Keep. For the first time, she strikes out on a journey for self-fulfillment alone. Or else she will become a victim to her mother's machinations. Traditions, restrictions, and oh yeah, a mother stronger than gale-force winds have held her back all her life, making her greener and pricklier than thistledown. A scheme to open the borders of their isolated land is the catalyst to her meeting an exile. One who is an anathema to every rule she’s been taught and sets her on a course no one foresees. The pampered princess of the land has not had enough experience to know how to handle a foreigner who has already snaked across their border. He comes crashing into her life and deceives her in everything he does. On a harrowing trip across the lands, she picks up hangers-on and endures conflicts and other lands with agendas that can kill them, which forces her to rely on him against her better judgment—all while in a body advancing with powers that she has no control over, her family’s secrets unraveling and everything she’s ever known changing. Tierney latches on to the foreigner as the fate of her land is thrown into her hands.
