In 1905, Małgorzata Ośiecka is the privileged daughter of a Polish count living in Russian-controlled Lutsk. Raised in comfort despite her nation's loss of independence, she never imagines that revolution will shatter the world she knows. When political unrest strips her family of their wealth and forces them to flee their homeland, Małgorzata is thrust into a life of hardship far removed from the aristocratic upbringing she once took for granted. After immigrating to America, tragedy follows the Ośiecki family at every turn. Faced with poverty, discrimination, and devastating personal losses, Małgorzata must rebuild her life while struggling to preserve her identity in a country that views her as an outsider. Seeking a fresh start in the American West, she encounters Red Falcon, a young Blackfoot man whose people have endured many of the same injustices that her own family experienced. As their friendship deepens into something more, Małgorzata must choose between the expectations of her family and society or the future she wishes to create for herself. Spanning two continents and a period of profound social change, this historical novel is a story of displacement, resilience, identity, and the search for belonging in a world transformed by revolution and prejudice.

Em um continente onde a magia é operada como engenharia e a natureza é monopolizado pelo Estado, a imponente Confederação de Mairata dita as regras da vida e da morte. Através do Supremo Xamanato e da Árvore-Mãe, a Capital controla o Âmbar-Vivo ( a seiva luminosa que move o mundo ) mantendo os povos do deserto submissos através de uma sede artificial e de falsos milagres biotecnológicos. Moara é uma filha da poeira de Yby-Soró. Brilhante e calculista, ela usa a matemática não para louvar a Capital, mas para desvendar suas mentiras. Quando ela intercepta dados que provam que o Estado está planejando a "Colheita Gélida"(um genocídio orquestrado para aniquilar todas as lideranças perfiféricas), ela se torna a mulher mais caçada do continente. Para sobreviver e espalhar a verdade, Moara forma uma aliança improvável com Jabori, um soldado da elite desiludido que, após ser marcado pelo sistema, decide desertar. Armado com uma espada forjada a partir de sucata de antigas escavadeiras radioativas, ele se torna o escudo letal do qual a mente de Moara precisa. Caçados pelas implacáveis Sombras de Itã-Oca, assassinos silenciosos do Império, a dupla cruza desertos tóxicos e ruínas esquecidas em uma corrida desesperada contra o tempo. Eles precisam invadir a cidade de Ilú-Mandacaru, impedir o massacre iminente e hackear a própria rede orgânica da Capital para despertar a população. Moara e Jabori estão prestes a provar ao Império que a verdadeira força do continente não vem das folhas intocáveis da Árvore-Mãe, mas da fúria, da ferrugem e do sangue escondidos no chão.

In a world reclaimed by silence and shadows, Tala Rivers survives by her instincts and a war club strapped to her thigh. As she navigates the ruins of a dead city, she is haunted by a cursed inheritance: a dormant magic linked to her mother, a once-great sorceress who fell to darkness and became the entity known as The Malignant.

Damon is a shapeshifter who knows exactly what Tala is and the threat she poses to the dark forces gathering on the horizon. The Malignant is searching for her, her "eyes and ears" already lurking in the shadows. Forced into an uneasy alliance with Damon and his Pack, Tala must stop fleeing from her past and embrace the ancient power she has feared for so long. In the face of a rising storm, she will have to decide if she is just a survivor-or a fighter capable of taking down the woman who destroyed everything.

Pleasant Valley, Arizona Territory, 1882. The land between the Mogollon Rim and the creek bottoms is beautiful the way a held breath is beautiful - still, charged, waiting. Nora Callan came west with a dead husband and a gift she does not name: a barometer's sensitivity to the invisible weight of what men are about to do. She did not come for trouble. But the valley has its own intentions. When two ranching families - the Tewksburys and the Grahams, friends once, now something else - begin their slow slide toward the bloodiest feud in the history of the American West, Nora finds herself caught between them: reading the weather, unable to stop the storm. The Rim Country is a story about what a place remembers. And what it refuses to forget.

In the spring of 1607, as Jamestown rises from the shores of a wild, untamed land, two souls from opposing worlds are brought together by fate and divided by history. Alistair Beaumont, a new colonist carrying the weight of his family's expectations, arrives with hopes of fortune yet finds himself unsettled by the actions of his fellow settlers. Kaya, the fierce daughter of the Monacan chief, watches the colonists with wary eyes, knowing they bring nothing but upheaval to her people's ancient lands. Drawn to each other despite the danger, Alistair and Kaya must navigate the deeply rooted mistrust of their families and communities. In a world of betrayal, cultural divides, and mounting violence, their love becomes a fragile lifeline-a promise of hope where none should exist. But as Jamestown's hunger for land intensifies, the two must make impossible choices, risking everything to protect each other and the legacy they dare to dream of. Where the Rivers Meet is a story of resilience, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between two people who defy convention and stand together in the face of a world determined to tear them apart. Set against the historic backdrop of America's first colony, this sweeping romance weaves together love and legacy, asking how far one is willing to go for a chance at unity and peace.
