Summary

The summoning of otherworldly heroes is a dangerous gambit for King Edward Ricousian–heroes show up with ridiculous cheat powers and wild ideas about “human rights” and “justice for commoners.” But with demons on the verge of overrunning his starving kingdom, he chooses to roll the dice, and ends up saddled with Thomas Smith. The king and his advisors hope to control Thomas by setting him up with a “harem” of beautiful, deadly young women and carefully manipulating his perception of the war, hiding his country’s wrongdoings and painting their foes as evil monsters. But Thomas isn’t the kind of person who lets anyone control him. Can a normal guy from Earth cut through the lies to find out what’s really going on–and when he does, will anything be left standing?

    From the stranger in the car, to the madman at her door...Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Shari Lapena and Lisa Jewell  ‘It’s a shocking thriller that grabs at your emotions on every page! Loved it.’ bestselling author Lauren North  
    The day my path crossed with Simon Fox I thought I’d already lost everything but then he almost ran me off the road with his flash car and belittling jibes. The men in my life had undermined me for too long. Enough was enough. Fuelled by alcohol and the desire to get even, I decided a spot of petty vandalism would make me feel a whole lot better. Wrong. Very wrong... I hadn’t realised that Simon Fox was not a man to be messed with.  He showed me just how much I still had left to lose. Soon I was battling for my home, family and life.Praise for Gemma Rogers:

    Grace is fascinated by the natural world. To increase this precious sense of wonder she is chosen by Nature’s spirit guides and guardians to travel on ‘a funny sometimes fearful journey’ with an amethyst stone as her guide and promise of help along the way. Creatures she expects to assist her are too self-important. Her allies are small, often overlooked plants, flowers and insects. Her main goal seems to be discovering what lies in and beyond the rainbow, but her adventures bring her only slowly nearer to its mysterious garden, bridge and palace. Everything appears to be a long way round. She decides to assist a lost, bitter boy – Downcast Don – to rediscover ‘wonder’ by obtaining for him a specially made silver spade. This takes her through strange and fearful forests, down a well to find an underground forge, and into an overwhelming encounter with an ancient giantess in a bleak desert. Her chief guide, Heartsease, assures her that it’s all part of a search for rainbow wisdom, to recognise the importance of all things and people and to accept ‘not knowing’. She can then ascend the ‘Shining Stairway’ to a stranger country beyond.Up here Grace is nearer the rainbow but time and distance play tricks and she is in danger of being side-tracked. A knight, Sir Cloudy, a kind dreamer who lives in a time warp, invites her to his ‘Castle in the Air’. Just short of the rainbow garden she is deceived by a Menace and his monstrous Mother, and only just escapes their clutches. The promised places are beautiful and intriguing but she must learn about what lies under the surface. The palace that crowns the bow bridge is where the guides and guardians weave their many-coloured tapestries that reveal perspectives and choices about the future. When Grace descends the vanishing rainbow steps she meets characters who have made her journey so instructive, and once back in the everyday world she is still herself but somehow more so because she can see and understand more acutely.
