The Lady of the Rivers

The Lady of the Rivers tells the captivating story of Jacquetta, the daughter of the Count of Luxembourg, who is kinswoman to half the royalty of Europe. Married to the great Englishman John, Duke of Bedford, uncle to Henry VI, she finds herself widowed at the tender age of 19. Taking an extraordinary risk, Jacquetta marries a gentleman of her household for love, defying convention to carve out a new life for herself.

Her journey takes her into the heart of the English court, where she becomes a close friend to Queen Margaret of Anjou and a supporter of the House of Lancaster. Amidst the backdrop of the Hundred Years' War and the rising tensions of the Wars of the Roses, Jacquetta's life is rich with passion, legend, and loyalty.

Gifted with second sight and linked to the mythical Melusina, Jacquetta navigates the treacherous waters of royal intrigue, fighting for her king, her queen, and her daughter, Elizabeth Woodville. Her story is one of courage, love, and a dramatic change of fortune, as her daughter becomes entwined with the rival House of York.

This sweeping, powerful tale draws on years of research to bring to life the real-life mother of the White Queen, offering a unique perspective on a complex, treacherous era.

Mistral's Kiss

I am Princess Meredith, heir to a throne of faerie. My day job, once upon a time, was as a private detective in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, princess has now become a full-time occupation.

My aunt, Queen Andais, will have it no other way. And so I am virtually a prisoner in faerie—trapped here with some of the realm’s most beautiful men to serve as my bodyguards... and my lovers. For I am compelled to conceive a child: an heir to succeed me on the throne. Yet after months of amazing encounters with my consorts, there is still no baby. And no baby means no throne. The only certainty is death at the hands of my cousin Cel, or his followers, if I fail to conceive.

Now Mistral, Queen Andais’s new captain of the guard, has come to my bed—defying her and risking her terrible wrath in doing so. But even she will hesitate to punish him in jealous rage, because our joining has reawakened old magic, mystical power so ancient that no one stands against it and survives. Not even my strongest and most favored: my Darkness and my Killing Frost. Not even Mistral himself, my Storm Lord. But because Mistral has helped to bring this magic forth, he may live another day.

If I can reclaim control of the fey power that once was, there may be hope for me and my reign in faerie. I might yet quell the dark schemes and subterfuges surrounding me. Though shadows of obsession and conspiracy gather, I may survive.
