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.

Sophie is flying back home after being gone for four years. She's the maid of honor in her childhood friend's wedding. When she imagined being the maid of honor, she never imagined the groom would be the man that she was in love with. Hoping that having a front row seat to their union will finally give her closure, she catches a flight to the last place she ever wanted to return. Andrew can't believe that his best friend is getting married. He has always thought that letting Sophie go was his friend's biggest mistake. She was the perfect woman and he hasn't stopped thinking about her since she disappeared four years ago. If she wasn't his best friend's ex, he would have tracked her down and fought hard for a chance to have her for himself. When the week of the wedding finally arrives, Sophie and Andrew take their positions as the maid of honor and best man. Will Sophie's history with her ex - the groom, make this an event she'd like to forget or will the best man make this a celebration she'd like to remember forever?
