Even a lone wolf must one day claim his mate. I expected what I came for in
Wallachia: a job as a governess and a fresh beginning, far away from all that tormented
me in England. Instead, I found a sinister manor house with secrets lurking down every
dim corridor. Eerie, erotic nightmares plague my sleep—inspired, no doubt, by tales of
the village’s mystical guardians and my darkly handsome employer. Ioan Marcu is as
enigmatic as the lands where he and his daughter make their home. The locals say that he
is cursed, that he is behind the questionable circumstances of his first wife’s death.
But I feel an almost supernatural pull toward him, despite the wall of solitude he’s
built around himself. Our passion has reached a fever pitch, and I know we must confront
the consequences of our lust. For Ioan is no normal man, and I may just be the key to
his powers’ full potential. Views: 38

But peace is an elusive dream, and more trouble is brewing. The war was expensive, and the economies of the Superpowers, always fragile, are on the verge of total collapse. The Directorate, the shadowy intelligence organization that has become the true power behind the Alliance government, plans to strip the colonies bare to pay the costs of war. Already, they are tightening their control over the freewheeling colonial governments. And the Marine Corps faces total destruction at the hands of the worst traitor in its history. But the colonists are a different breed than the passive mob on Earth, and they have no intention of meekly surrendering their hard won freedoms. On worlds all across the frontier, plans are hatched and weapons hoarded. And in taverns and meeting halls the words of an ancient text are uttered in hushed tones. A little rebellion, now and then, is a good thing. Views: 38
