Far, far away on the world, Arklight, the ancient power of the wayfarers lies dormant. Hidden in plain sight, Cecily and Isaac travel with a circus practising this power, desperate to keep their waning way of life alive. For the wayfarers are being taken for reasons unknown and it's all the pair can do to stay ahead of the forces determined to take them. Across the sea, in the land of Keyhaven, a new form of clean energy brings together two nations, but forces are on the move, the city is under siege. Alana, a knight of the icy Crescent, and Kal, a librarian in the great Keyhaven library become embroiled in a plot to destabilise the world. And all the while, it seems to revolve around the secrets of the wayfarers most believe to be dead. Worlds awaken. History will burn. The wayfarers will be free.

When Arianna marries billionaire Zach Price to save her family, she doesn't expect to fall in love with a man who'd always consider her a second choice. An unexpected turn of events brings the couple closer together, but can a marriage based on lies and deceit ever survive? ***** When Arianna's older sister, Olivia, decides to run away on the day of her wedding, Arianna is forced to take her place to save her family from ruin. But her new husband is angry, heartbroken, and seems to hate her guts. The cold, elusive billionaire Zach Price has never quite struck Arianna as the kind of man she'd want to spend her entire life with. She was more than content with her sweet, thoughtful boyfriend Noah, but when circumstances force them together, Zach and Arianna's hearts get entangled in a way she never saw coming. As the couple grows closer, they must battle the demons of their past and of the lives they left behind - especially when Olivia returns and decides she wants Zach all for herself.
