Golden Dragons, Gilded Age (The Grand Crucible Book 1)by Steve Perlow

The Dark Elves and their savage black dragons have been defeated. Emotes wield the only magic left in the world, the ability to heal those they care for. Gold dragons ensure that the peace that has lasted for hundreds of years continues to endure.

A youthful princess regards the tranquil age a boring one offering no chance of valor, so she escapes her kingdom to scout in the forest of the Red Elves.

A knight turned bounty hunter, who’s never lost a fight, finds himself the target of a plot hatched by desperate young twins.

A brooding half-elf, summoned by an old friend to the fort she commands, harbors a deep love and hides a harrowing secret.

Thankfully for those in peaceful Taulus who dream of conflict, the Dark Elves are not dwelling idly in their swamp prison.

The evil stirring in the east threatens all beyond their swamp’s borders–restless princess, gallant bounty hunter, clever twins, and troubled half-elf alike.

Golden Dragons, Gilded Age, is the first book in The Grand Crucible.

Jemima J: A Novelby Jane Green

Treated like a maid by her thin and social-climbing roommates, and lorded over by the beautiful Geraldine (less talented but better paid) at the Kilburn Herald, Jemima finds that her only consolation is food.

The Buggy Listby Courtney Rice Gager

Drew and Libby Sullivan have spent the past six years building the perfect life together. They have a beautiful home, flourishing careers, and they’re finally ready to take the plunge into parenthood. Well, almost. Despite the endless prodding from family, friends, and even strangers, there still seems to be something holding the couple back from starting a family. Perhaps that’s why they decide to take the advice of Libby’s older sister and make a list of everything they want to do before they have a baby. Making their baby bucket list, or as they call it, “The Buggy List”, buys them just a little more time to be Drew and Libby, who sleep in until noon on Saturdays and eat Chinese takeout for dinner on the couch. Besides, it gives Libby the opportunity to pull straight-laced Drew out of his comfort zone and do something fun for once; like go undercover as singles to a speed dating event with their friend, Tom; or finally take the honeymoon they never had. Drew and Libby each write down five items that they must complete before having a baby. But what starts out as a little harmless fun quickly becomes more than this…
