No one knows the extent of the freshly crowned Shadow King's power. Some say he can command the shadows that swirl around him to do his bidding. Others say they speak to him, whispering the thoughts of his enemies.
Regardless, Alessandra, tired of being overlooked, has a plan to gain power: woo the Shadow King, marry him, then kill him and take his kingdom for herself. But Alessandra's not the only one trying to kill the king.
As he dodges assassination attempts, she finds herself trying to keep him alive long enough for him to make her his queen - all while struggling not to lose her heart.
After all, who better for a Shadow King than a cunning, villainous queen?

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to travel back in
time? Joe Hopkins isn't expecting to go anywhere in particular. But
while he's visiting the ruins of a Roman palace, he suddenly slips

and then a fascination. In the end, it will change his whole life.
"The Leopard in the Golden Cage" is the first of seven books for 8

smugglers, and the bombers of the Second World War Blitz.
Sometimes it's hard to be Milton P. Greene. He says all the wrong
things. He has a very sensitive stomach. His family life is falling
apart, and his friends will barely speak to him after the
embarrassing Bird Brain Incident. But when Milton plays his video

naturalist explorer who conquers danger at every turn. In Isle of
Wild, Milton isn't having the most Heinously Rotten Year of All
Time; he's having an adventure. When his parents ship him off to
the remote Lone Island for the summer, where his uncle is a
naturalist, Milton finds an adventure waiting for him there. It's
up to him to protect the secrets of the Lone Island - and along the
way, he'll learn his worth, make new friends, and turn real life
into an adventure all its own.
