Refusing to call it quits, she see salvation in Pepper Alverez, the lonely woman who plays beautiful, haunting music every weekend without fail at a public piano in a neighborhood park. Everything would be alright if she could only get the crowds that gather at the park, into her store.
  But the agreement to play in Ashley's store during the winter months does not come without baggage. Pepper's sad, minor key blues riffs and improvisations come from a long list of what she sees as her past sins. Playing the piano is the only way she knows to express those feelings and begin her atonement. It is her penance. 
  As Ashley begins to understand Pepper, she's faced with a choice. Does she view their friendship as a temporary business agreement, giving Pepper a place to play while getting the store back on its feet, or is it something more. And when Pepper makes things less than easy, how far is Ashley willing to go? Will she take the risk, turning a tenuous friendship into something more?

  Hotshot attorney Gabriel Vane was on the fast-track to partnership at one of the city's most prestigious law firms—until a judge caught him kissing a client and clipped the legal eagle's wings with a six month suspension. Gabriel agrees to vanish from the public eye until his suspension is over, trading his luxurious high-rise apartment for a forgotten Victorian home—but as soon as he moves in, he discovers he's not alone. He has nosy neighbors, bad plumbing . . . and a peppy ghost with anxiety issues. 
   
   
   
  Eternal incorporeal life has its perks, but after decades of binge-watching reality television and devouring lifestyle magazines, Ida Huxley is thrilled for the company of a living, breathing human—even if he is a cynical, workaholic snob. Even better, Gabriel offers to fulfill his part of a supernatural contract that could finally allow Ida to pass onto the other side and end her eternal exile. 
   
   
   
  But as Ida guides Gabriel in fulfilling the obligations of the contract, the two of them discover a connection too powerful to ignore—and when Gabriel learns there's a chance to return Ida to the world of the living, everything changes between them. Now the race is on to give Ida a second chance at life—but they need to do so before Gabriel inadvertently completes the terms of their original contract, banishing Ida to the afterlife forever.

  The only thing keeping the Nameless Dwarf from once more becoming the Ravine Butcher is a helm made from the sorcerous ore, ocras, which he can never remove. Without the helm, he would succumb to the power of the black axe that caused the slaughter at Arx Gravis. 
  After a year of fighting in other people’s wars, Nameless receives a visit from one of the underworld tricksters—a faen—who tells him the day he has long waited for has arrived: 
  The philosopher Aristodeus has come up with a plan to destroy the black axe and free Nameless from the ocras helm. 
  With the aid of new companions and an old friend, the assassin Shadrak the Unseen, Nameless must retrieve three artifacts that, combined, will bring an end to his suffering: 
  The gauntlets of the fire giant, Sartis, whose lair lies in the roots of a volcano; 
  The invulnerable armor of the Lich Lord of Verusia—an undead tyrant with a penchant for impaling and the drinking of souls; 
  And the Shield of Warding, beneath which cowers a paranoid god on the fringe of the Abyss. 
  But things are never that simple. Each of the companions has their own reasons for joining the quests, even Shadrak, who has been bound by an irrevocable contract— 
  To kill the Nameless Dwarf.
