Book Description
According to ancient prophecy, there's only one chance to avert the complete annihilation of the Undead. Twins James William and Brigit Poe part human, part vampire believe that they are that chance. In truth, the key lies with reclusive and mortal scholar, Lucy Lanfair. As Armageddon approaches, anti–vampire sentiment fuels a war neither side can win, driving James to abandon his moral code and draw Lucy into a deadly battle she wants no part of. But Lucy soon realises that she holds this powerful immortal's soul in her hands, and that it's her destiny not only to stop a war, but to save James from his inner darkness. If she fails, his race will die and so will her heart. Is the power of their love strong enough to save the world?

"Tanya Anne Crosby has created her own mythology, where history and legend collide." - Whiskey & Wit Book Reviews Long before there was a Winter King, there was a Summer Queen-Gwendolyn of Cornwall, a fierce warrior princess who raised an army to unite nations. Said to be a changeling child left to the King and Queen of Cornwall, Gwen is "blessed" in her cradle with three Fae gifts: a prophecy for her future, a gift of "Reflection," and a golden mane-literally. Every lock of her hair will turn to gold, only provided 'tis cut by her one true love. But no one understands more than Gwendolyn that her blessings are truly curses. Any man who gazes upon her will only see his own heart reflected in her countenance, and depending upon his virtue, she is either the loveliest woman in all the land... or the most hideous. It's a cruel jest of the capricious Fae, for unless a man's heart is true, Gwendolyn is destined to be coveted for her crown, yet despised for her face. To make matters worse, Gwendolyn's aging and ailing father is desperate for an alliance with Brutus of Loegria. "The Romans are coming," and according to the Goldenchild Prophecy, only by uniting their Draig banners can they stem the Red Tide. Offered to Brutus's ambitious son, Prince Locrinus, Gwendolyn's heart is nevertheless tempted by a mysterious, maddening half-blood Fae whom she can never wed if she is to fulfill her crib side prophecy. Part 1 of an exciting, new series.

Book Description
Tanya's trademark... "A blend of honest emotion with a perfect dash of humor and twist of mystery, and beautifully human, relatably flawed heroines." —Tami Hoag Featuring full-length stories by USA & New York Times Bestselling author Tanya Anne Crosby. Enjoy four Victorians with strong female leads who won't let convention stand in their way of achieving their goals. In A PERFECTLY SCANDALOUS PROPOSAL, Lady Margaret Willingham is a wealthy heiress, who knows what she wants. No husband. No children. No man to tell her what to do, or how to do it. Forced to marry, or lose her inheritance, she defies convention and places an ad in the paper for a commoner husband, fully intending to take charge of her life. In MISCHIEF AND MISTLETOE, as the family counts down to Christmas, everyone else seems to realize Lucien and Emma are meant to be—except the oblivious couple. With the help of some very mischievous children, Emma and Lucien are about to discover that a little mischief beneath the mistletoe might open their hearts to love. In KISSED BY A ROGUE, Jessamine Stone vows to wed no man but her onetime fiancé, Christian Haukinge. She sets out to win back Christian's affections, unaware that her brother has already offered him a bribe to crush her heart. In ONE KNIGHT'S STAND, bound for a marriage she hopes will save her cousin from the gibbet, Lady Elizabeth Louise Wolfe finds herself en route to Scotland to marry the younger son of a known traitor to the Crown. Fate intervenes when, on the way, she checks into an inn and registers as the “MacKinnon's bride.”

Book Description
In 1961, twelve year-old Diego Miranda’s life changes drastically when his parents inform him that they are moving back to their homeland, Nicaragua. The boy, who has lived only in Los Angeles, hates the idea of leaving the city he loves, his friends, and his beloved Dodgers. In the middle of this crisis, he meets the writer Scott O’Dell, the novelist who has recently won the Newbery Medal for Island of the Blue Dolphins. In spite of their age difference, the two become close friends. As a result of this relationship, Diego’s teachers invite the writer to give a talk about the Spanish explorer Vasco Núñez de Balboa. O’Dell chooses to narrate the story of Balboa’s colonization efforts, his sighting of the Pacific Ocean, and his eventual beheading through the eyes of Anayansi—the Indian Princess with whom he shared his life. Told alongside each other, Diego’s and Anayansi’s lives intertwine to create a broad, stunning portrait—set four centuries apart—of the redemptive power of storytelling.
