The Sorceress Queen and the Pirate Rogue

<p><em>A Lonely Road</em></p><p> </p><p>Stella has always been one to count her blessings. Empath sorceress shapeshifter and healer she's grateful for the gifts the goddess of shadows has bestowed upon her. Yes she's sensitive to emotions and can't bear to be in large crowds for long. And yes that means she'll never be able to take a lover as she's unable to withstand physical contact with anyone but her twin brother. Certainly now that he's found his true love she feels more alone than ever. None of it haunts her however like the vision of the lonely tower where her life path ends.</p><p> </p><p><em>An Unrequited Love</em></p><p> </p><p>Jakral Konyngrr is a man of simple tastes: good whiskey some coin in his pocket and a fine blade in his hand. Though he's no prince not a shapeshifter and not blessed with any magic he's happy in his skin. And yet he seems doomed to live the life of a hero from a tragic ballad because the only woman he's ever wanted barely knows he's alive. As much as Jak longs for Stella he's resigned himself to being forever in the background. At least he can guard her back.</p><p> </p><p><em>A Quest to Stop a Monster</em></p><p> </p><p>But now Jak and Stella have been thrown together-along with a mismatched group of shifters warriors and sorceress friends-chasing and attempting to avert magic rifts that release monsters into their world. Worse the strange intelligence behind the bizarre and deadly attacks seems to have developed a fascination for Stella. Battling for their lives and the good of the realm they must fight-and perhaps love-together to alter the course of the future before it's too late.</p>
