*Paperback is published on Amazon.com. THE DOYEN SERIES book 2: Anecdote is coming soon!* Aisling Collins has lived a mostly perfect life: straight A's, a loving family and she even attends the college of her dreams. But when she meets the mysterious and handsome Kayde Rhys, she learns that not everything is as perfect as it seems. One trip to New Orleans throws Aisling into the most exciting and life-threatening world she never knew existed. Aisling finds that she is more powerful than anyone could have imagined. This is why she has been in hiding for 19 years. Dozens want her dead. Dozens want her alive. Who will win? ...... Excerpt from book: I almost say "okay, let's kill him" but then I remember who I am. What my values are. What my standards are. What my morals are. And this is not 1 of them. Values define who you are. The minute, the second, the millisecond, you forget your values, you lose yourself, your mind, your soul. I already lost my family and my innocence to the supernatural. I am not going to lose my humanity too. I find the words flying out of my mouth in a frantic hurry before I can stop them. I am screeching, screaming, blurting words and phrases and sentences and paragraphs at the people before me like I will soon run out of air. They stare at me like I am speaking in tongues, which I guess to them I am. "Okay," Kayde says as he picks his lifeless brother off the ground. Slings him over his shoulder like he is made of feathers. Nods at me once, twice, 3 times. "We can use him to get information. No killing." He looks me in the eye. But that doesn't mean that there won't be torture.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
