Blood Raine

Belinda McBride

Summary

A Blade brought them together. 
The acclaimed metal mage Sai Raine took a commission for a live blade, and met the man who made his life complete. But their happiness was short-lived, when Lieutenant Arick Weste vanished on a battlefield, leaving no clues except one of the pair of blades made for him by Sai.  
Wild with grief and anger, Sai Raine let his forge grow cold as his heart. As a mercenary, Sai Raine sought his lost love on battlefields all across the land, never losing hope that Arick still lived.  
But all soldiers must eventually fall, and when Sai was finally defeated, it was to an enemy soldier who was far too familiar. Sai might survive the battle, but will he survive the ultimate betrayal?

The Play's the Thing

Jessica Barksdale Inclán

Shakespeare has never been this sexy!

One evening when helping a colleague stage The Merchant of Venice, English professor Jessica Randall slides momentarily back to 1598. Later that night, she lands for good in the chambers of one William Shakespeare, a down-on-his luck playwright.

His biggest problem of late has been a non-stop stream of Jessicas apparating into his chambers nightly. Yet Jessica's appearance halts the visitations, though neither have a clue why. Can she get back to 2018? They don't know that either, and together they begin to craft a life together, all the while trying to break the time travel curse and avoid falling in love.

As Jessica grapples with practical (what is and how does one put on a farthingale?) and emotional (how to risk your heart when everything might disappear in an instant?) aspects of adapting to Elizabethan London, she must try to solve the mystery of the other Jessicas. More importantly, she must figure out how to get home without suffering from the broken heart she knows she can't avoid.

Despite being thwarted at every turn, Jessica manages to navigate her new world and her old one and save not only herself but Will Shakespeare and his legacy.
