The Magic Found in Chaos
A disgruntled Gradyln warrior, Belzan, is preparing to destroy the woman who severed his hand and banished him—and all those important to Kareina. Using the fear of the people of Kellshae as a catalyst to building his army, Belzan incites hatred of magic wielders, and the basic need of men to get their women under control.
Gionne needs to bring Kellshae’s first oracle to Zheirger Keep, but must traverse the unsettled land filled with angry magicked people, and the common people killing those with magic. Time has Gionne wondering if she may have been rash in her actions to break up with Jahq. Hatred is tearing Kellshae apart. Is it too late to make amends before all hope is lost? Jahq hasn’t spoken to Gionne for nearly three years, has barely left her rooms in the Keep. Now her mothers are asking Jahq to accompany Gionne from Gradyln to Zheirger. She knows this mission is important to Kellshae, and that her absence should make her disappearance afterward easier. Jahq accepts one former lesson above all: Gionne’s rejection
was worse for her than any monster Bahalkar spit up from its
depths.

Chaos Beneath the Moonbeams
The age of magic has been over for nearly three centuries; finalized with the War of Harmony. Even the gods willingly melt into forgetfulness, letting mortal life grow as it would, for good or bad. Not all the gods had agreed unanimously. So, when a mortal man decides to release a banished god for his own purposes, nothing will ever be the same.
Kareina of Clan Gradyln has posed as her twin brother Karr (with the aid of minor forbidden magic) for over a decade, since Karr’s disappearance and Kareina’s kidnapping and torture. Even Caldier Hassid, her father, forgets her true gender. So, when Hassid agrees to a betrothal between Karr and Mayliandra, it’s up to Kareina to figure a way out of it. Meanwhile, someone has brought the old god T’Dar from the depths of Bahalkar to bring back the old ways of chaos. Mayliandra of Clan Bredwine, about to be given to the fierce Sher Karr, doesn’t know if she should be happy for the opportunity to leave her home, where she’s nothing but a
servant; or, petrified her future husband will learn her secret. Although Mayliandra intends to do her duty to her clan, she can’t help wishing Karr were his dead sister, Kareina.

Tears Don’t Become Me
GW (Georgia Wilhelmina) Diamond, Private Investigator, dealt in missing children cases—only. It didn’t alter her own traumatic childhood experience, but she could try to keep other children from the same horrors. She’d left her past and her name behind her. Or so she thought. This case was putting her in contact with people she had managed to keep a distant and barely civil relationship with for fifteen years. Now the buried past was returning to haunt her. When Sheriff Matthews of Elk Grove, Missouri, asked her to take a case involving a teenaged runaway girl, she believed it would be no different from any other. Until Matthews explained she had to take a cop as partner or no deal. A cop who just happened to be the missing girl’s aunt...
Erin Dunbar, received the call concerning her niece from an old partner, Frank Matthews. It should have been from her sister, but their estrangement, compounded by her having moved to Detroit, kept that from happening. Now she would have to work with a PI. One had nearly killed her and Frank years ago; she expected this one would be no different. Matters were only made worse by discovering it was a “she” PI—a Looney-tune one who gave new and literal meaning to: “Hands Off.” For the sake of her niece, Erin would put up with just about anything, until...
GW seemed to be strangely affected by this case and Erin, to her chagrin and amazement, was strangely affected by her. If Erin could solve GW’s past, give her hope, could they have a hope of finding her niece?

Speakeasy, Speak Love
Fiona “Finn” Cavanaugh wants to move west, leaving the tenements and her abusive father far behind. When she saves Margaret Graham from the local street bully, Fiona doesn’t realize how the ramifications will change her life, her plans, and especially her heart. Eldon Graham, Margaret’s brother, offers Finn the chance to work for him, and make more money than anyone else “his” age. For Fiona, this could mean a chance to save faster to meet her goals–and spend more time with Margaret.
Margaret Graham comes from a family of some consequence and has finished a college degree to be a teacher, but is thoroughly under her brother’s rule. He believes her education is nice, because it will land her a prominent husband. He has his partner in crime, Jimmy Bennet, at the top of the suitor list. Margaret, at first, is confused and frustrated by the immediate attraction to a mere boy-child when she and Finn meet. She learns the truth, but the knowledge–and the fact Fiona works for her brother–could cost Fiona her life.
The heat between Fiona and Margaret nears a boiling point; and, when rival gangsters, and Jimmy, turn up the heat on the Graham businesses, things become so dangerous that neither woman may survive long enough to leave for a better life, or explore their burgeoning love for each other.
