While struggling to fit in, she receives a second surprise from afar. This one is so much bigger and vastly more destructive. It also comes with a terrifying message.

His lowly beginnings may not see him fit to kiss the highborn princess's oddly webbed toes, or polish the blood-stained boots of Sir Gore Wolfe of Howling Stone, but royal blood isn't everything. A dozen hell cats can't be wrong. They certainly have no complaint about the quality of Bayerd's blood, and they have sampled it - liberally.Together with his tall dark and brooding friend Orson, Bayerd does his manly best to fill the role of champion. It quickly proves to be a perilous role for him. Trouble sticks so close to Bayerd, it could easily be mistaken for his shadow. Or his good and true friend Orson.Recommended for teens and adults. 303 pages in printed book format."Quite a few times, I found myself laughing out loud. Funny, hilarious and witty.

A captivating YA fantasy romance.The heir son of the Rainlord is hunting a flock of firefish when he comes face-to-filthy-face with a northern wildling. Every southerner knows their reputation as dragon-spawned savages, and the girl Flynn meets certainly proves it is justified. When he ends up robbed and beaten bloody, he has no choice but to drag her back to his sire's ever-changing maze of a prison and sentence her to suffer.It is only the beginning of his trials, not the end. Saffire earns her freedom and his best friend disappears as if in a puff of smoke. The wildling is either the culprit responsible, or the only one who can track Dale and bring him safely home again. Flynn wants to believe she can perform the miracle, but it is hard to have faith in any wildling, especially one who stabs him while he lies sleeping. And naming herself the legendary fire-master of the north, well, that is every bit as ludicrous as her claim that the true villain is as insubstantial as a shadow's shadow.When the threat escalates to endanger both sides of the Dis'Gorge, Saffire and Flynn must set aside a lifetime of prejudice and band together if man's world is to endure - although trusting each other may prove even harder than defeating the evil whose power is growing all out of control, rather like its unbelievable new sidekick.Of all things born, a flame has the most fleeting life, and the quickest death.A beautifully written fantasy with non-stop adventure, and romance. Recommended for fantasy readers, both teen and adult.353 pages in printed book format.
