    Only teachers know what really happens at a magic school... 
    Chintor Academy is celebrated as the place where the best music mages are forged. But beneath the surface, bullies rule with cruelty, teachers scheme against each other, and the student destined to save their nation is far from ready.  
    Kalina didn't know what she was getting into when she agreed to teach at Chintor. Now, as a first-year teacher, she's tasked with finishing the training of this prophesied violinist. Their nation's sworn enemies are nearing victory, and she has mere months to prepare him before their country collapses. 
    When Kalina uncovers the abuse of a vulnerable student, she's thrust into a dangerous dilemma. Exposing the school's underbelly means she'll be fired and unable to prepare their hero. Keeping quiet means her students will suffer.  
    The fate of the nation—and her soul—hangs in the balance.

    It seemed God had gone silent… 
    Haunted by grisly scenes from her past, journalist Ione Stavros needs to heal and recharge. According to its website, the mysterious St. Ninian’s Sanctuary is a perfect place to do that. On an island so far south it’s nearly in Antarctica, the retreat center promises quiet opportunities to meet with God and find refreshment. She prays that’s true, because this is her last hope. 
    Callen came to the island to escape a fatal failure. Working the island farm and hiding in a cabin alone, this former Rocky Mountain search and rescue paramedic prays God will let him stop hearing, even for a moment, screams from his past. He doesn’t expect God to place a woman in his path more broken than he is. He can’t bear to carry her pain along with his own, but every time he turns around, there she is. 
    Together they listen for God’s voice, explore the mysteries of the island, and try to make sense of their lives. It isn’t until danger threatens the entire island that they begin to understand God’s plans for them—apart and together—as well as plans for the island they’ve grown to love. 
     Beneath the Broom Tree is book one in the St. Ninian’s Sanctuary series, contemporary Christian small-town romance with a mysterious island twist.

    BLOOD WOULD BE SPILT, LIVES CHANGED AND DECISIONS MADE. 
    When the Salish War Leader, Spotted Eagle appeared in the clearing before their cabin, life-long friends Gabe and Ezra weren’t sure what to think. This man had shown himself to be their friend, and now he invited them to join him and the village on a buffalo hunt. With winter just around the corner, it seemed the likely thing to do, but had they known what the journey would bring, they might have had second thoughts… 
    Gabe and Ezra’s discovery of the massacre of the Paiute village, and the three survivors that told the story, was just the beginning of the fight against the warring Waiilatpus. When the band of raiders also attacked the Salish and fled, it was up to Gabe and Ezra to seek some vengeance and recapture the stolen girls. 
    A pursuit across the lava beds of the Snake River plains, a fight in the dead of night, a thundering stampede of buffalo, and a horde of bugs that shrouded the entire valley, were just the added complications to a simple buffalo hunt, or perhaps more. The unorthodox ways of the two non-native men would earn Gabe more scars, Ezra a new name, the lasting friendship of the Paiute, and the gratefulness of the Salish.

    When the fake fortune teller receives the gift of the Oracle, it comes with strings attached. Olympic-sized strings. 
    I am no saint and certainly no sacred advisor. Telling people what they want to hear or giving advice is something that has come naturally to me. It's how I earn my bread and butter. However, I have no real gift of prophecy. 
    Or, at least I thought. Turns out my Greek grandparents forgot to tell me one important detail. I'm a direct descendant of the Oracles of Delphi. 
    When my ex lands me in legal trouble, I make a rash decision and sign on to be the next Oracle. I can always get out of the deal, right? 
    Wrong. 
    I've signed my name in blood and that's physically binding to someone of my lineage. Being magical isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Especially, when you find yourself embroiled in an eons old family feud. 
    Now, I must learn to access my oracular gifts and make allies fast or end up like the last Oracle--Dead. Hermes has offered to help me with both, but I've trusted handsome men before and got burnt. That's how I ended up in this position in the first place. 
    Race with me across the United States to the Washington Olympics to claim my position before my enemies can stop me. 
    Fans of K.F. Breene, Shannon Mayer, Lindsay Buroker, and Ilona Andrews will love this modern epic.
