In a desperate move, Brigid defeated the witches, but now she is stuck in Faerie with zero ideas, or the power, to get back home. At least her cat and her bestie are with her. But they're not the only ones she accidentally transported. The coven's head witch, Sofia, has also disappeared into the Fae realm. If Brigid had any luck, a wild Fae creature would eat Sofia, but Brigid's luck ran out years ago. Lost in a foreign realm, Brigid has to navigate the Fae court without insulting anyone or inadvertently causing a civil war.

Brigid Donovan is down on her luck. Her husband dumped her for the biggest stereotype around, his secretary, and her family mansion is a decaying wreck. All she wants is to get it restored, enjoy the peace and quiet of living in eight hundred acres of primordial forest, and rebuild her life. Fate seems to be against her. First, her cat starts to speak to her. And what does he say? He's not what he seems to be—seriously? Like a talking cat is normal.

Solidarity is often invoked, but it is rarely analyzed and poorly understood.

Brigid Donovan has found some of her Fae magic, but some is still missing. Her new boyfriend doesn't remember who she is, and the witch coven still wants to take everything from her. Her call for help brought her human best friend, but she hasn't any magic—although she makes up for it with enthusiasm. To get her stolen magic back, Brigid's going to have to master the magic she does have. Putting out a call to her Fae great-grandfather could be the best idea yet, or it could be the worst. The Fae aren't known for their compassion.

Three thousand years ago, a god told a lie. Now, only a goddess can tell the truth. Persephone has everything a daughter of Zeus could want - except for freedom.

But when Persephone meets the enigmatic Hades, she experiences something new: choice.

When Princess Lorelei of Leithe overhears her fiancé's plot to murder her on the way to their wedding, she does the only smart thing: she runs. Into the Edgelands, the savage, woodland home of the legendary U'lfer, a race of fierce wolves who walk as men, she knows she is as good as dead, but she would rather be torn apart by werewolves than die by Trystay's hand. A young U'lfer warrior named Finn catches her scent on the wind and finds himself possessed by an unnatural desire to shield and protect her from that which hunts her.

The year is 2038, and Cass has spent nearly half her life on The Deliverance, hurling through space some 250 miles above the Earth.

Princess Kelsey Bandar and Admiral Jared Mertz have beaten the savage Pale Ones only to fine even deadlier enemies working hard to undo everything they’ve accomplished. To give the New Terran Empire even a slim hope of survival, they must explore a graveyard filled with dead ships watched over by a merciless AI, stop a coup determined to see the Imperial Throne fall, and then take the fight to the empire’s enemies.

Kelsey Bandar and Jared Mertz must retrieve the electronic override buried under the ruins of the old Imperial Palace to win the war against the AIs. Oh, and get off the planet in spite of the murderous warships orbiting the destroyed world. How hard could that be? Imprisoned in a dead megacity and surrounded by howling savages thirsty for their blood, they must triumph or die. And if they die, humanity dies with them.

After years of battle, Kelsey Bandar and Jared Mertz are finally ready to face the master AI enslaving the Terran Empire. With just a bit of luck, this nightmare will finally be over. Only luck can run out just when you need it the most. Outnumbered and outgunned, they must salvage victory from certain defeat. Failure means extermination, invasion, and the loss of everyone they love. Can they beat the odds just one more time?

The war against the AIs is won, but the fight for humanity has only just begun. With the xenophobic Clans rampaging though the Rebel Empire, Princess Kelsey Bandar must convince the skeptical resistance to help them to establish a base of operations to fight back. To do that, Kelsey needs every ally she can get, and a whole lot of luck. Instead, she finds herself trapped in an alien universe while her mother tries to save the day. Even if she does get free, can she turn the situation around in her own universe before everything comes apart in their faces?

Separated by more light years than either cares to think about, Princess Kelsey Bandar and Admiral Jared Mertz must reach Terra before the Rebel Empire figures out that they even exist. With a number of enemies to overcome, they each have to make it to the hidden vaults under the old Imperial Palace or the New Terran Empire dies, and the last free humans in the galaxy join the rest in slavery. The obstacles seem insurmountable, but they have no other option than victory. They truly are humanity’s last hope.

Marooned on ruined Terra, Kelsey Bandar and Jared Mertz must march to the Imperial Palace to recover the key to defeating the savage AIs that have enslaved humanity. If, of course, the fierce and primitive Terrans don’t kill them first. Trapped without their advanced technology, they must overcome foes determined to take everything they have left, including their very lives. If they don’t find allies fast, humanity is doomed.
