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.

Lightning crackled in my eyes and jumped around my fists. ❝Zeus is fallen. I am Hercules. I stand in his place.❞ The giantess snorted, leering down at me, yellow teeth like bricks. ❝Another dead hero.❞ ❝Yes. But not today.❞ * * * Hercules has fucking had it. Olympus' hero has just been double-crossed by his stepmother, Hera, and now Herc's future throne is promised to his dastardly half-brother. Fed up with the family drama, Herc goes on a permanent vacay to the human realm. In the land of Twitter and cheeseburgers, he doesn't have to worry about three-headed dogs or the constant threat of the Underworld-where Hera is determined to send him. Herc has finally found something on Earth he never had in Mount Olympus. Something better than lightning, ambrosia, and sex with nymphs combined. Meagan is the only girl who's ever brought Herc to his knees-and he'll be damned if he lets her go. Literally.
