In the 1800s, London society is thriving. From the balls to the brunches, the eyes of the many look at your every move. Rosalia Taylor- a duchess's daughter- is the centre of attention as she is set to marry a commoner. But the gossip is nothing compared to what's in store for her engagement. On the eve of her celebratory ball, she discovers her sister is with child; the father being her very own fiancee. Betrayed and destroyed, Rosalia flees the public eye. Two years pass, the new Hartleys moved to America, leaving Rosalia nineteen and unwed. Given a deadline of three months, Rosalia Taylor must find the man to be her husband and if she fails, she will be handed over to marry the loathsome Lord Chalmers a.k.a Pig. A masked man attracts her eye, but who is William really? Is it Sebastian, the constant friend by her side? Daniel, just returned from business? Could it even be a stranger? Rosalia doesn't know but the clock is ticking and she must marry before the three months are out. She must uncover the mask and see for herself who the man she loves truly is. In a web of betrayal, lies, love and mystery, the duke's daughter has many complications with the oncoming expectations. {Finalist in Undiscovered Historical Fiction in the 2012 Watty Awards}

"It's happening again, Aidan. We didn't stop it, after all." As an elemental, Aidan Brook holds the power of water at her fingertips. A descendant of the earth's oldest magic, she can cause tides to ebb and flow, put out house fires without calling 911, and give anyone who's annoying her an impromptu shower. But even her magic has its limits. After it fails her one terrible night, she hides from the world and everyone she once loved, trying to escape the memories that haunt her. Ten years later, her exile is brought to an abrupt end when her former best friend appears on her front porch. An elemental killer is once again murdering her friends, and she must return to the scene of her own crimes. Lake Tahoe proves more than she bargained for. Between a sadistic killer, some clever FBI agents, an annoyingly attractive landlord, and way too many new roommates, she has a pretty full plate. Add in a past she's desperate to escape and her own uncontrollable powers, and Aidan Brook is having a very, very bad month.
