Book Description
In a magical world where being different is the norm, why must Rye Woods fear for her life if the truth about her hidden identity is revealed? When Rye Woods, a fairy, meets the beautiful dryad Flora Withe, her libido, as squashed and hidden as her wings, reawakens along with her heart. But Rye is a poor builder's labourer with a teenage sister to raise, while Flora is a wealthy artist-celebrity with a tree-top condominium and a sporty, late-model flying carpet. If those arenÕt obstacles enough to the scorching attraction that rapidly develops, Rye lives under the pall of a dark secret that has made her a fugitive in the very land where she sought freedom. The more Rye reveals to Flora, the more vulnerable she is to her past catching up with her. Can she and Flora find their way to loving one another in the face of their social and cultural differences while struggling with the dark forces that threaten Rye?

Book Description
Strap in, ‘cause it’s a wild ride through Destiny, or should I say Middle Earth… Not long ago, Sheriff Jack Lang would have sworn there were no such things as vampires, storm witches (Tempestaeries), djinn or dragons. That was before he met Tempest Pomeroy, his sexy redheaded mail lady and trouble magnet. He’d fallen for her before he found out about her special abilities. But that wasn’t what turned his life upside down. His transformation into a supernatural being… Yep, that did it. Tempe had feared her supernatural nature would be a problem for Jack, who’d mistaken Destiny for a normal safe, small town. Turns out, Destiny is more para-normal then normal. But that didn’t explain why Jack left her in favor of haunting the highest levees in the parish. Sure, he’d received a shock, and Tempe's willing to do whatever it takes, but can she convince him to return to his life and to her? A stubborn man is one thing, but a grumpy, depressed twenty-ton dragon presents a bit more of a challenge. Fans of Destiny Paramortals say: “Tempest is one of the best paranormal heroines I’ve read.” “WOW…just wow! Give me some more!” “This is my new favorite series!” “OMG, I loved this book. Run don’t walk to the buy button.” If you like Amanda M. Lee, Molly Harper or Kristen Painter, try Livia Quinn. The series should be read in order: Storm Crazy, 1 Cry Me a River, 2 Eve of Chaos, 3 Blame it on the Moon, 4 Take These Broken Wings, 5 Blood Moon, 6

Book Description
This is a story of neglect, abuse, loneliness, and ultimately redemption. It documents the life of Prudy Hopkins from her infancy, childhood, and teenage years in an orphanage where all her energy goes into merely surviving the best way that she can. There is no coddling or snuggling, just a handful of women taking care of her basic needs for food, shelter, and clothing. Due to a cleft palate and lip, Prudy is singled out and becomes the subject of sympathy from adults, curiosity and alienation from her peers, and abuse from misfit children who torture her because it makes them feel better about themselves. As a result, Prudy isolates herself from everyone and refuses to let anybody get close to her. After having been the subject of unspeakable violence as a teenager, she is forced to evaluate her life. Through the help of her high school English teacher and an incredible therapist, she finally learns to trust and let people penetrate the walls she has put up around herself. But after a heartbreaking, sudden, and shocking loss, she puts the fortifications back up and entrenches herself inside them. It isn’t until she meets Tom, who refuses to be daunted by her defensiveness toward him, that she is finally able to let someone in again. The rest of the story is about her life as an adult—the trials and triumphs that are unique to her. It is a beautiful and tender account of one woman’s journey through self-discovery, continued reevaluation, and the reinvention of herself.
