It was a time when gods walked the earth, when armies fought not for bits of land, but for the very existence of humanity. On such a battlefield, five formidable warriors stood against an evil greater than any the earth had ever seen. But evil is not an honorable foe. Betrayed by someone they trusted, the warriors were cursed, one by one, tossed into the maelstrom of time, imprisoned in stone, their freedom resting on nearly impossible conditions. Until... Dragan Fiachna, heir to the curse of royal blood, a horror hiding behind a beautiful face... you shall remain locked in stone until a maiden, untested and pure, shall find grace in your beast and safety in your nightmare. Dragan Fiachna, born to a life of loneliness, cast into stone by a sorcerer's curse and imprisoned forever in darkness. He is freed at last, only to discover his enemy still lives and is plotting the death of millions in his quest to rule this new world.

Shocked when her beautiful winged man breaks free, horrified at the torment he's endured, she dedicates herself to reuniting him with the warriors he calls family. But she never planned on falling in love. Racing across half the country in search of the only man who can stop their foe from fulfilling his merciless scheme, Dragan and Maeve discover they've unwittingly stolen the one artifact that can defeat their enemy. And he wants it back. Pursued by assassins, they fight their way to Dragan's brothers, only to discover the war for this world has already begun... Author Bio: D. B.

Barcelona--exquisite architecture, masterful artists, and just down the coast, an ancient fortress where an old and powerful vampire lives. . .and rules all of Spain. Tall, dark, and deadly, vampire Xavier Prospero Flores waded through blood to destroy his enemies and reach the pinnacle of vampire society--Vampire Lord. He has only one regret in his long life, and that's the day he rejected the advances of Layla Casales. She'd been too innocent, too na ve, and far too young. But she'd also been his. Layla Casales was only nineteen when she left Spain, brokenhearted and humiliated by Xavier's rejection. But now, ten years later, the ties of family are pulling her back, not only to Spain, but to Xavier's fortress. Her father, the vampire lord's military commander, is critically ill. Layla has spent years fighting on battlefields around the world, so when her father asks her to come home, she can't say no. Though Xavier's rule began on the ashes of his enemies, it's not vampires trying to kill him now--it's humans. He needs to eliminate his enemy before more of his people die. Layla arrives just in time to help, but while she came for her father, the minute she and Xavier see each other, desire burns as hotly as if they'd never been apart. Xavier isn't going to let her go this time. But before they can rediscover the love they walked away from, they must first keep each other alive. About the Author: D. B.

As an African American cultural anthropologist and CEO of an urban research institute, D.B. Maroon is intimately involved with the nation’s struggle to realize its promises equally for all people. Her work is to put those stories into the big picture of American culture—past, present, and future. Intersectional, personal, and hard-hitting in places, while ultimately centering on truth, love and perseverance, Black Lives, American Love weaves the stories of America’s pursuits with Maroon’s own experiences. The result is a personal biography of America offered from the thoughtful viewpoint of a Black anthropologist. The essays take on some of the country’s fiercest debates and most profound challenges with an unflinching style: from the invention of race and debates about the 1619 project, to the rippling impacts of resurgent White Nationalism, the birth of Black Lives Matter Movement, and the ongoing traumas of police brutality. Yet within its pages is the hopeful continuance of the Black community, the striving for better, the grappling with the hurt in order to soothe it with love, and to heal it with peace.Black Lives, American Love is arelentless truth-telling about America’s failures to its Black population—yet itis also a discussion on how we might all do more to secure America’s still vastlybeautiful possibilities of liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all rather than afew.
