July in Houston, Texas, is far too hot for Frost Giants. But when a
Valkyrie with an attitude shows up on Marti Keller's doorstep in
the middle of summer, things take a turn for the polar. After Marti
returned home from her ordeal at the hands of a notorious drug and
human trafficker, she had expected her life to return to its normal
placid state, maybe with the addition of a splash of romance.
Instead, she finds she's hopped out of the frying pan and into the
Arctic Circle, where she lands square in the middle of an ancient
apocalyptic prophecy. Can a tiny tweak of the prophecy change the
fate of the world? She'll find out, if she lives long enough to
make it to Ragnorak.
Marti Keller was married to the man of her dreams and had a
satisfying career as an emergency room nurse. But a soul-shattering
tragedy turns her world upside down, leaving her desperately
clinging to the one precious thing left in her life. After her
search for a work-at-home job leads her to rediscover her
long-suppressed ability to communicate with ghosts, she encounters
Spam, the restless spirit of a murder victim, who begs her to help
bring his killer to justice. She agrees, but her life quickly
spirals out of control. Even as she fears she is descending into
madness, a mysterious stranger named Quinn steps in to catch her
fall. He always seems to turn up just in the nick of time. It's
almost...preternatural. In fact, the more she discovers, the more
she finds that everything she thinks she knows is wrong. And that
the worst monsters are usually hidden in plain sight.
After a chance encounter with a devastatingly handsome knight,
Lisabeth Stuart finds herself at the Dragon's Lair Pleasure Faire
resort in Galveston. She's supposed to be reporting back to her
investor cousin, but she's hoping to enjoy the merriment and
feasting, and especially time with the mysterious and delectable
Sir Tristan. Just when Lisabeth starts to think she's found exactly
what she wants, old enemies and even older secrets threaten to take
everything from her. Will finding true love save her...or kill her?
