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.

Stormbringer has vowed to stand beside her through anything but that becomes more difficult when the gods are now at odds. Caught between a brewing war of power and destruction the originals and companions are soon hunted by one much more dangerous than they have ever encountered. What is worse... Odin is firmly on high to ensure his hold on the realms never changes-no matter the cost. "The gods envy you. They always have."

The Space Service assigned Penn to stand "Honor Watch" on the old academy ship, Artemis. Last of four starships, the Artemis once journeyed to the stars but now orbits Earth, a symbol of mankind's retreat from the stars. Penn has several projects to pass the time, but new orders arrive: The Artemis is to be scraped. It would have been a melancholy moment, but there is an unexpected objection. COMING SOON! Read the whole story in "Starships: The Complete Saga." Extensively revised and reedited, I've put the three WattPad Starships stories into a finished chronicle. It includes two new stories: "Starships: Dawn" recounts the discovery that made the first starship possible. "Starships: A Song In the Dark" tells the concluding story-or, is it just the beginning?
