Summary

A richly atmospheric portrait of women’s agency and the timelessness of love, Time Squared explores the enduring roles of rights, responsibility, and devotion throughout history
		 
The game will change when you remember who you are
		 
Robin and Eleanor meet in 1811 at the British estate of Eleanor’s rich aunt Clara. Robin is about to leave to fight in the Napoleonic Wars, and her aunt rules out a marriage between them. Everyone Eleanor knows, including Robin, believe they’ve always lived in these times.
		 
But Eleanor has strange glimpses of other eras, dreams that aren’t dreams but memories of other lives. And their time jumps start as their romance deepens. Robin fights in the Boer War, the First and Second World Wars, in Vietnam and Iraq. Meanwhile, Eleanor struggles to figure out what’s going on, finally understanding that she and Robin are being manipulated through time.
		 
Who is doing this, and why? Arriving in modern times, Eleanor sets off to confront the ones she discovers are behind this — chessmasters playing her like a pawn. Eleanor’s goal? To free herself to live out her life on her own terms.
		 
Time Squared examines the roles women are forced to play in different centuries, the power they’re allowed, the stresses they face — and what this does to their relationships.

    A wolf is only as strong as her pack. 
As a sworn Council member, my neutrality forces me to watch from the sidelines while my mate's pack faces mounting threats. But when the desert's ancient magic fractures and a teenage wolf vanishes, I can no longer talk myself into holding that line. 
Because the girl's father has threatened war against my mate. Pack bonds are shattering. And the Council? They refuse to intervene. 
With time running out and my mate bond unraveling, I face an impossible choice: uphold my oath or risk everything to save the family I’m forbidden to claim. 
The final book in the Rune Wolf series delivers high-stakes action, political intrigue, and a battle couple fighting for their future—where loyalty, love, and found family are put to the ultimate test.

    What if saving our world means destroying another?  
Alora's brain has always been a little strange. No matter how hard things on Earth got, and they got pretty awful, she always dreamt that she possessed amazing telekinetic powers on another world. Her brother called them her delusions of grandeur.  
But when things start to go unbelievably well on Earth—hot guys asking her out and her brother landing a terrific job—everything falls apart in her dream world. As people she's seen in her dreams begin to appear on Earth, Alora fears that the two worlds may in fact be connected. 
And that's bad.  
Because according to a prophecy in her dreams, she's the only one who can save their world. At first it made no sense, but she's beginning to think that she'll have to choose. If they can't both continue, which world should she save, and which world will have to burn?
