Forces move unseen and unknown. Tensions mount as sides are chosen, and old alliances are no longer guaranteed. Agents of the past are activated to ensure a future for not just the Human race, but for many of alien-kind as well.

Tara Mason and Hunter Eponil thought they were out. Done. Finished. Until a mysterious message disrupts their cozy farm plans and pulls them back into the fight once more.

And when Devlin Morrison and Hunter Skakun get redirected to chase a digital trace across the stars, they have to wonder, “Isn’t there someone more qualified to do it? Like, literally anyone?”

Forced to play nicely by their shadow benefactor, Theela Financial, amidst a fresh bout of anguish brought on by both their past and present failures, can they reach down, forgive themselves, and race to unravel the web of lies until only the truth remains?

Or will what haunts their footsteps spell doom for them all?

Fleeing her sheltered life, a noblewoman must trust a warrior, a forester, and a thief to unlock her true power and face her destiny.

All her life, Aelys of Brionne had been weak. As the noble daughter of one of the empire’s most powerful magic-wielding families, it should have been easy for her to live her dream of bonding with a warrior protector and joining the Imperial Battlemage Corps. But when her weakness robs her of her dreams, her best friend, and the man she loves, Aelys makes the only choice she can see: she takes her fate into her own hands and she runs, leaving her safe, protected world behind.
Now she must find a way to work with three dangerous strangers—a warrior, a forester, and a thief—to escape the bandits stalking her, fight through the dangers of the untamed forest, and make her way back home, where her family and her destiny await.
Only . . . her violent protectors might be the key to the power and freedom she’s always craved. Can Aelys find the strength to choose her own destiny and become the sorceress she was born to be? Or lose herself on the path to power?
