We have to keep our mate bond a secret to stop the war from escalating, which sounds simple at first, but then the mental and physical bond between us gets stronger. And stronger.

Washington, DC, the year 1967. Sarah Schorr (late of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon) is secretary to Judge Francis Biddle, for whom age has inclined to look backwards at what was rather than what is...and what will come.

Buckminster Fuller reminds us, “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.” This book provides just that model, as well as concrete practices for living it. The model is derived from ancient wisdom traditions, modeled on the pulses, cycles, and seasons of our beloved Earth Mother. It deeply grounds the listener in a “this world” spirituality that blends indigenous cosmologies, earth-honoring ritual, and time-tested models for living with modern sensibilities.

I kissed the King of the Sea, so he made me his bride. He's offering me everything I could ever want. Good food. A castle. Immortality. Endless numbers of books to read. But in exchange, he expects to breed me. His people are dying out, and they want me to help boost their numbers. When I immediately refuse, he doesn't protest or try to force me. Instead, he decides to win my heart with every bit of power he possesses. The more I argue with him, the harder he fights. And the harder he fights, the more I want to give in.

He's rough, growly, and refuses to answer any of my questions as he takes me back to the fae lands. When we get there, I learn that a large faction of his people want him dead, so they paid in blood and magic for an ancient assassin to hunt him down. Our mate bond should hide him from the monster, but if his people find out about it, we'll be executed. And the bond itself?

When stepping into a town full of werewolves like me for the first time in my life, I expected to be welcomed—or at least tolerated. Instead, I got hit in the face with a door. And then, found my dad's face on a dartboard in their diner.

I've been abducted by the werewolf king. He’s deadly. Violent. Cruel. But not to me. To me, he's almost nice. I guess it helps that I'm the only female werewolf he's ever met. And that his wolf has decided I'm going to be his mate, whether I like it or not. Luckily, I can survive his pack just fine, as long as no one learns what I could do for them. I can't tell the king the truth, no matter how much I'm starting to trust him. Or like him. Or want him.

I gave myself to the dragon king, prepared to become his mate to protect my sisters. But that's not why he wanted me. He just needs my help breaking a prisoner in his cell, to keep his people safe. And he doesn't want me to risk my life to do it. When it becomes clear that's the only way? I take it upon myself to make it happen, and almost get myself killed. That's when the truth comes out: I'm his fated mate.

I've been dragged into the fae realm and given no choice but to pick a mate if I ever want to get back home. Thankfully, the fae king has offered up some of his most trusted men in an attempt to find me someone to marry. Unthankfully, he's sort of… possessive. Which means I'm sleeping in his room. In his bed. With him. While I'm trying to choose a mate from among a handful of candidates who barely seem interested in me. There's enough chemistry between us to light a fire, but he's not an option.

I made spaghetti for my hot arch nemesis, kissed him, then somehow ended up mated to him. Planned? No. Desired? Also no. Unless we're talking about physically, because—whew—there is some serious heat between us in more ways than one. I never wanted to be in a relationship again, but he's not walking away. And the more time I spend with him, the less I want him to leave. We're going from enemies to friends with benefits faster than I realized was possible… and I have to fight like hell not to let us go any further.
