"She is a healer, a storyteller, and a warrior. When Britain is
faced with threats both old and new, the strength of her love may
be the kingdom's downfall . . . or salvation."
Their love has overcome endless obstacles. Never ones to shy away
from danger, former High Queen Isolde and Trystan, a mercenary with
a lonely and troubled past, have already endured a perilous journey
to keep the underhanded Lord Marche from the throne of Britain. But
now a new traitor lurks amongst the kings on Britain's High
Council--and just when they've realized the depth of their love for
each other, a new danger calls Trystan from Isolde's side to test
the strength of their secret marriage vow. Only Isolde knows that
she is carrying Trystan's unborn child.
As Britain's armies prepare for a final battle in which they will
either turn back the tide of the invaders or see their kingdom
utterly destroyed, Isolde must undertake yet another daring
mission--one that will bring her even nearer to a secret that
Trystan has kept for seven long years. As the clouds of war gather,
Trystan and Isolde must once again fight to protect Britain's
throne. Together, they hold the key that can defeat the Saxon king,
Octa of Kent, and Lord Marche. But the cost of Britain's
sovereignty may be their own forbidden love.
Based on the earliest written version of the Arthurian tales, Anna
Elliott's "Sunrise of Avalon "breathes new life into an age-old
legend and brings the story of Trystan and Isolde to an
unforgettable end.
"A story of hope and second chances in Regency London..." Kitty
Bennet is finished with love and romance. She lost her one-time
fiance in the Battle of Waterloo, and in the battle's aftermath saw
more ugliness and suffering than she could bear. Staying with her
Aunt and Uncle Gardiner in London for the winter, Kitty throws her
energies into finding a husband for her hopelessly bookish sister
Mary, and discovering whatever mysterious trouble is worrying her
sister Jane. But then she meets Mr. Lancelot Dalton, a handsome
clergyman with a shadowed past--and discovers that though she may
be finished with love, love may not be at all finished with her.
"Kitty Bennet's Diary" is Volume 3 of the Pride and Prejudice
Chronicles. It can be read alone, but refers to events from Volumes
1 and 2. "Kitty Bennet's Diary" is appropriate for all ages. The

But when the former Emperor Napoleon escapes from his exile on the
Isle of Elba, Britain is plunged into renewed war with France...
and Edward is once more called away to fight.
To be with the man she loves, Georgiana makes the perilous journey
to Brussels, in time to witness the historic downfall of Napoleon
at the Battle of Waterloo. But when Edward is gravely injured in
the battle, she will need more courage than she ever knew she had
to fight for their future together.

"Mr. Darcy's younger sister searches for her own
happily-ever-after..."
The year is 1814, and it is springtime at Pemberley. Elizabeth and
Mr. Darcy have married. But now a new romance is in the air, along
with high fashion, elegant manners, scandal, deception, and the
wonderful hope of a true and lasting love.
Shy Georgiana Darcy has been content to remain unmarried, living
with her brother and his new bride. But Elizabeth and Darcy's
fairy-tale love reminds Georgiana daily that she has found no true
love of her own. And perhaps never will, for she is convinced the
one man she secretly cares for will never love her in return.
Georgiana's domineering aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, has
determined that Georgiana shall marry, and has a list of eligible
bachelors in mind. But which of the suitors are sincere, and which
are merely interested in Georgiana's fortune? Georgiana must learn
to trust her heart--and rely on her courage--for she also faces the
return of the man who could ruin her reputation and spoil a happy
ending, just when it finally lies within her grasp.
She is a healer, a storyteller, a warrior, and a queen without a
throne. In the shadow of King Arthur's Britain, one woman knows the
truth that could save a kingdom from the hands of a tyrant...
Ancient grudges, old wounds, and the quest for power rule in the
newly widowed Queen Isolde's court. Hardly a generation after the
downfall of Camelot, Isolde grieves for her slain husband, King
Constantine, a man she secretly knows to have been murdered by the
scheming Lord Marche -- the man who has just assumed his title as
High King. Though her skills as a healer are renowned throughout
the kingdom, in the wake of Con's death, accusations of witchcraft
and sorcery threaten her freedom and her ability to bring Marche to
justice. Burdened by their suspicion and her own grief, Isolde must
conquer the court's distrust and superstition to protect her throne
and the future of Britain.
One of her few allies is Trystan, a prisoner with a lonely and
troubled past. Neither Saxon nor Briton, he is unmoved by the
political scheming, rumors, and accusations swirling around the
fair queen. Together they escape, and as their companionship turns
from friendship to love, they must find a way to prove what they
know to be true -- that Marche's deceptions threaten not only their
lives but the sovereignty of the British kingdom.
In "Twilight of Avalon," Anna Elliott returns to the roots of the
legend of Trystan and Isolde to shape a very different story -- one
based in the earliest written versions of the Arthurian tales -- a
captivating epic brimming with historic authenticity, sweeping
romance, and the powerful magic of legend.
