Three powerful novellas that will blow you away...
1. Kathryn Le Veque - Echoes Of Ancient Dreams
Destry Caldbeck, smarting from being jilted at the altar, travels to Ireland on what was supposed to be her honeymoon. While visiting Dowth Mound, an ancient Neolithic site outside of Dublin, she encounters a group of students and their instructor. Dr. Conor Daderga is everything an Irishman should be; enormous, muscular, red-headed, and dead sexy. He's also loud, booming, animated, and brilliant.
Destry goes exploring the mound while listening to Dr. Daderga's lesson to his students in the background. Dowth is thought by scholars to be a burial mound and while nosing in the ancient chambers, Destry experiences ghostly voices from ages past. Rushing from the mound, she runs straight into Dr. Daderga.
Conor, having seen the gorgeous American with the bright eyes when she first arrived at the mound, is thrilled to have a chance encounter with her. Destry and Conor share a moment of complete, utter attraction before ancient incantations and ghostly visitations begin to lend clues to their past lives as an ancient king and queen, cruelly separated by an evil wizard. Soon, they find themselves caught up in a maelstrom of time shifts, landing them back in the Dark Ages of Ireland's history where they discover a high king's destiny.
1. Kathryn Loch - By Any Other Name
Betrayed by family, Sir Micah de Montfort has spent the past two years as King Henry's knight errant, bringing disputed castles under control of the throne. But when the Scots attack Appleby Castle and kill the ruling family, Henry sends Micah to retake the castle and this time promises Micah he will stand as baron.
Upon capture of the keep, Micah learns the youngest daughter of the ruling family has survived. According to Henry's own law of inheritance, the castle and barony fall to her. Micah finds himself in the unsavory position of denouncing her as a traitor to the throne and sending her to a convent, or giving up his claim as baron.
Can Micah walk away from all he has worked for in the past years? Can he take another's inheritance just as his was taken?
