Since the disappearance of the gods, the world has been split between the humans and the faeries, with only the Arcane as peacekeepers. With both fae and human blood flowing in their veins, the Arcane are gifted with rare abilities. Even after centuries of separation between the two races and the Arcane becoming less fae and less powerful, the mixed bloods remain respected and feared by those who wish to reinstate the war. And none are more feared than the Elemental Arcane. Possessing a strong connection to one of the four major elements, these rare souls arise once every few centuries whenever a major shift in the world is about to occur. It's been many generations since an Elemental has been seen, but a new Arcane has arrived with fire in her veins. And she's not the only Elemental alive right now, which can only mean something terrible is brewing in the world.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.
