To save all of the worlds, they'll first need to stay alive. A Darker Shade of Magic — Kell was raised in Arnes—Red London—and officially serves the Maresh Empire as an ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never see. It's a defiant hobby with dangerous consequences, which Kell is now seeing firsthand. A Gathering of Shadows — Restless, and having given up smuggling, Kell is visited by dreams of ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila, who disappeared from the docks like she always meant to do. And while Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Element Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. A Conjuring of Light — As darkness sweeps the Maresh Empire, the once precarious balance of power among the four Londons has reached its breaking point. In the wake of tragedy, Kell—once assumed to be the last surviving Antari—begins to waver under the pressure of competing loyalties.

Pages : 337
Book Description
Game of Thrones meets The Princess Bride in this hilarious new series, combining romance and high fantasy, by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kerrelyn Sparks. Raised in isolation on the magic-shrouded Isle of the Moon, five girls became five sisters. Now women, they are ready to claim their places in the world—and perhaps change it forever . . . FLAME AND FORTUNE Sorcha knew the mission was dangerous. Leaving the safe grounds of her brother’s kingdom and parlaying with the elves across their border . . . well, treachery seemed at least as likely as true peace. But to support her sister, Sorcha would brave far more than the underhanded ways of the elves. Or so she thought, before she was taken hostage. Of course, her captors didn’t count on her particular abilities—or on the help of the Woodsman, the mysterious thief who made his home in the forest. He saw the battle from the trees, saw the soldier attacking against incredible odds to save a comrade—and then saw the valiant fighter revealed as Princess Sorcha of Norveshka. He can’t tell if he wants to kidnap her or kiss her. But despite Sorcha’s stubbornness, his inconvenient honor, and a rebellion on the cusp of full war, something burns between them that neither can let go . . . “Sparks' crafting of distinct kingdoms and fantasy races is the strongest part of the series…An adventurous fantasy romp.” —Kirkus Reviews “Satisfying chemistry, a playful sense of adventure, and the threat of more danger to come keep the pages turning. Readers will revel in this fun, fast-paced fantasy romance.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Description
Fate stole her family. Forbidden love could destroy her life. It was supposed to be a clean slate, a place where no one knew about her mother’s death, a burden Abby Brennan feels responsible for. The suffocating walls of her childhood home prompt a desire for change. Abby pins her hopes on an internship at an Irish castle. Maybe there, she can hide from the world. But she is about to discover she is destined for more. Liam is the first to sense it from the moment they touch. Something magical draws Abby to the four men running the program. Each forbidden touch is like wildfire on her skin. Each heated look causes her physical pain. She feels breathless without them near. An awakening, dark power pulses beneath her skin, deepening her dangerous bond with the men. Something or someone wants to hijack the connections she’s forging with the Irish men, all of whom possess magic like her. And as Abby's true nature is awakened, she could heal or destroy everything in her path... Scroll up, grab your copy, and begin your magical love adventure today! What readers are saying about Magic Destiny on other retailers: “A thoroughly ponderous adventure with immortals and witches. You will enjoy it!” “OMG, I love new takes on Celtic mythology.” “I love how the paranormal, folklore and romance is so intertwined that it felt natural and real...” “If you like magic, hot guys and a down to earth type female lead, this one is for you. Loved it.” “I am a fan of paranormal RH and this did not disappoint.” “Story about witches, guardians, and what it takes to save the world from immense evil. Steamy sex and amazing connected characters. Hard to put down. Loved it.” **Book one in a continuing five-book series. A reverse harem, why choose romance. It’s a slow burn, fated mate story where the heroine connects with a different man in each book. She’s unsure, pushy and dangerous, and could be exactly who the moody heroes are looking for. **
