"When Liana learns that her beloved husband, Prince Amron, was killed, she uses her half-divine blood to strike a bargain: the gods will send her back into the past and give her three days to make Amron fall in love with her. If she succeeds, she gets him back. If she fails, she loses him, and her divine powers, forever. Seventeen years earlier, Melia is forced by her controlling father to marry Amron on the brink of the biggest peace treaty in history. But Melia has her own plans: to destroy the treaty and carve a new future with her rebellious lover, Ferisa. As Melia’s betrayal sparks a bloody conflict, Liana realizes the gods have deceived her: she must help Amron earn Melia’s trust, even if it means losing him, or the future won’t exist. And Melia must decide whether to reveal the truth, knowing it could cost her everything—or let the kingdom burn to ashes. A dark fantasy story of love and revenge, Love Lethal, Death Divine blends the history of Eastern Adriatic with Slavic folklore, set in the same world as Ghost Apparent and Dark Water, Deep Woods."
"When a notorious space pirate is accused of intergalactic terrorism, her longtime cronies go after an unlikely recruit: her ambitious cadet granddaughter.
Nimah may have been born a RIM-rat, a hardscrabble kid from the far reaches of the galaxy, but now that she's a well-respected cadet at the prestigious STARS military academy, she's put her past behind her. Or so she thinks, until her future is obliterated by the return of her infamous space pirate grandmother, who abandoned her at a barren outpost fifteen years ago, and is accused of setting off a bomb at the millennial summit for United Planetary Nation leaders.
When her connection to Capt. Indira 'La Voz' Roscoe is exposed by an anonymous source, Nimah is expelled from STARS. Devastated by the loss of all that she's worked for, she still doesn't quite believe that the woman who has always been the voice of refugees across the galaxy, bestowing the fruits of her heists upon the poor, is actually a killer. But when a member of her grandmother's old crew tracks Nimah down and delivers the news that Ro was set up, Nimah must make a choice.
The only way to regain what she's lost is to prove Ro's innocence, and they can't do that if she's dead. The plan is simple—and insane: Nimah has three days to band together a motley crew of geriatric women plus a notorious thief, steal her grandmother's ship back, elude the powerful SIGA, and cross the void to save Ro before she's executed for intergalactic terrorism. Otherwise, her dreams and the last surviving member of her family will be lost forever.
Should be easy work for a former RIM-rat. Or it would be if Nimah wasn't terrified to the bone of the void . . ."

"I was a dragon. Dragons didn’t run from any situation. Not even a dragon disguised as a witch. Well … at least not from any situation that involved the archive or my duty, because apparently I fled before anything even remotely personal. Including surprise double dates.
A masked gala. A solstice celebration with the werewolves. Broken relics and doorways leading not only to other realms, other mythical and magical creatures, but to other possible futures. For me. And maybe even for Kellan.
And, well … that’s all just another day at the office for me.
Though my witch disguise really wasn’t going to hold up for much longer. Because even though I’d accepted my role as head curator at the magical archive of the National Museum of Ireland, and all the duties that came with being the Archivist of the Modern World, apparently I didn’t like the restrictions that came along with that. Because I couldn’t build the life I truly wanted — the dream unfurling in the dark chambers of my heart — on lies and half-truths.
Which meant that a moment was looming when I’d be faced with a choice that I couldn’t bear to walk away from. A choice that I might be willing to lose everything else to obtain.

"Not all dragons breathe fire and horde treasure, some have a real thing for artifacts, rare books, and magical creatures.
I’d given myself and Sisu twelve days to get settled into our new life before tackling my first official day as the head archivist of the magical archives at the National Museum of Ireland.
Our new kitchen was under construction, with the electrical and plumbing upgrades in the main rooms of the estate well on the way. I knew how and where to buy groceries, and had arranged a tutor for Sisu.
Totally under control.
Perfectly planned and executed, my to-do list had held strong through our transition into living among the Adepts of Dublin. With our secret identities firmly in place.
And then someone started releasing magical artifacts into the city, wreaking havoc on the witches and the werewolves. With me stuck in the middle, trying to sort it out with as few fatalities as possible. All while neutralizing the misused artifacts in question.
Thankfully, I was a quick learner.
And pretty damn indestructible.
Though the guardian dragons weren’t going to be pleased by a few of my more creative choices when it came to the care and keeping of magical … well, magical anything. But that was my job.
Even, as some might say, my vocation.
I was the Archivist of the Modern World, after all.
Invoking Infinity is the first novel in the Archivist series, which is set in the same universe as the Dowser, Oracle, Reconstructionist, Amplifier, and Misfits of the Adept Universe series.

"The plan was to hop a train to Oslo, hang out at a coffee shop, and connect my personal archive, Infinity, to the Internet. Yes, completely disregarding the well-established fact that magic and technology didn’t mix. At all.
I was also hoping to browse as many bookstores as I could before my younger brother’s patience ran out. Unfortunately, the five-year-old fledgling dragon was better known for his exuberant — and ultimately destructive — tendencies rather than his attention span.
I almost pulled it all off. Almost proved that my position as Archivist of the Modern World wasn’t just an empty title.
Then I got summoned — by the most powerful beings in the magical world. And when the guardian dragons made a request, no one denied them. Not even a lesser dragon.
Not even if it tore me away from everything I’d ever known — and the one person I couldn’t leave behind.
Awakening Infinity is a prequel novel in the Archivist series, which is set in the same universe as the Dowser, Oracle, Reconstructionist, Amplifier, and Misfits of the Adept Universe series.
