Rainbow's End

Maureen Finnigan

Sinossi

Anne sat in the shade looking out over the vast expanse of the African plain, as it stretched for miles in the arid heat. In the distance she could just see the dark shapes of Elephants near a clump of trees. She could hardly believe she was finally here in Tanganyika with her daughter and grandchildren. ‘Harry would have loved this!’ she said aloud to herself, her eyes filling at the memory of him. But in a brief moment a terrible accident would change their lives completely, and bring about an unexpected future for them all. Taking them from the shores of Africa to a new life in England, until Tanganyika would enter their lives again. Rainbow’s End follows on from Chasing Rainbows.

Defeating the Burnished King has come at a heavy cost. Never and Rikeva find themselves trapped in the time of his ancestors, captured by Amouni Guardians.

Discovering the hard way that his powers are no longer the peerless advantage they once were, Never is forced to cooperate with untrustworthy allies on a desperate quest to escape and keep Rikeva safe long enough to find their way home… if one actually exists.

Only a Summer

Delancey Stewart

I never imagined the hottest proposition I'd ever get would include the word 'yurt,' but there it was. 
 
 
 
I'm Aubrey Kasper. I live in a dilapidated old resort in the mountains in Colorado that should probably be torn down. 
 
 
 
Instead? I'm renovating it with my brother. Archie (my brother) needs me, but he also needs some outside help, which is why he ended up inviting my high school crush to open up the bar operations. 
 
 
 
If I thought Wiley Blanchard was hot in high school . . . well, I couldn't have possibly imagined the fully grown-up, master distiller, smooth-talking version. He's tall, dark, and hilarious, exactly the way I like them. 
 
 
 
Wiley might not know quite what he's getting into. For one thing, I've definitely got the hots for him, and I'm not the most polished of flirts. (Turns out putting guys in a headlock doesn't always communicate: I like you.) For another thing, he's stepping into a huge mystery our uncle set up for us . . . and if we can find the treasure he left, it just might save us all! 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.

Stand on Xanadu

John E. Siers

What do you do when one of your deep space survey ships discovers a fertile, Earth-like planet that isn’t currently occupied by humans or any other intelligent species? 
If you’re the Lunar Free State, you make plans to put a colony there—and try to keep it secret so the Confederated Nations of Earth don’t do the same. Unfortunately, though, the secret gets out, and the CNE scrambles to launch their own colony project, starting a race by both nations to make their claim to the planet. 
But when exobiologist Kim Jin Li discovers that the planet does, in fact, have native intelligent life—a race of feline predators that communicate telepathically—the discovery sets up a confrontation between LFS and CNE warships in orbit, and the LFS Marines and CNE Peacekeepers on the ground. 
Is this the beginning of the long-expected final war between the Lunar Free State and the Confederated Nations of Earth?
