Description:
In a time of
false peace, the dead rise as soldiers for the Warloc’s scheme. For thousands
of years he has stood ready for the final battle. Though the witch and her
cursed Elvin have destroyed his physical body, now with his protégé, he has
honed a new way to wage war.
Shunned by her
own people and weary-hearted from centuries of lost loves, Elvin warrior
Mirhana scours the land to silence the undead. Her heart has turned as cold as
the sword she wields, until a prince seeks her aid.
Never has Prince
Landon met a woman like Mirhana. Both beautiful and deadly, she haunts his
dreams. The battle at hand becomes more enchanting than fighting to remain true
to his unseen betrothed.
When a traitor
emerges, new alliances are tested and the only remaining hope is to follow the
prophecy and find the ... Son of Dragons.
Book Excerpt:
Mirhana followed Brock inside. In
one of the corners, Jeslyn, Landon, and Gillespie guzzled mead as if they had
been lost in the desert for days. Each slammed the flask down and laughed for
another. Jeslyn sat on Landon’s lap with an arm around his neck. She leaned in
when she saw them enter and whispered in his ear.
When Mirhana slipped around from
behind Brock, Landon’s laughter died and his face colored. She couldn’t keep
her hands from clenching. What was the matter with her? Who cared if these humans shacked up together? She had sworn off
relationships—especially with men. “
The tavern maid cleans our
chambers.” His voice cracked. “The girls’ room is ready now, but Jeslyn wasn’t
tired.” He sounded as though he apologized.
Mirhana did not care about him, or
that they were drunk. She told herself that beyond protecting humans from the
undead, she had no further interest in their affairs.
“Where is Celeste?” Brock asked.
“Asleep, when I left her.” Jeslyn’s
voice had no hint of alcohol.
Instead of responding, Mirhana spun
on her heel and headed upstairs.
With mumbling excuses, Gillespie
and Landon left the table and headed after her. Gillespie ducked inside his and
Landon’s room, but Landon grasped her arm.
“What’s the matter?”
She jerked her arm away. “Nothing.”
“It didn’t seem like nothing. A
moment ago, you looked like you took a bite of a bitter apple. I only wanted to
thank you for your help earlier with the Troblin.”
“The Warloc and his protégé are not
sitting idly back guzzling ale. They have attacked each of us.”
“One night of rest and forgetting
our responsibilities won’t harm anything.” His smile made his chocolate eyes
twinkle.
“I do not have the luxury as you
do. It is not only humans that I strive to protect, but my own people and
everyone else as well.”
“Right.” He leaned against the wall
and crossed his arms over his chest. “And who knows what will happen if you
have a drink with one of us and lower your standards.”
Instead of answering, she flung
open the door to her room, dashed inside, and slammed it closed. How dare he
speak with her that way? Tomorrow, she would tell Gillespie to take him back
where he found him. They didn’t need a jester in this battle.
About
the Author:
Andrea R. Cooper writes fantasy, paranormal and historical romance.
Her favorite
childhood memories revolved around creating vibrant characters for her friends,
and then acting out their adventures. Inside her fantasy worlds of darkened
forests, dragon-filled glades, and iced islands, nothing was banned. From the
ethereal
Elvin to the most maligned Vampires, all were welcome in her fictional realities, a stark contrast to her home, where the magical and mythical was forbidden.
Elvin to the most maligned Vampires, all were welcome in her fictional realities, a stark contrast to her home, where the magical and mythical was forbidden.
Divorced and
disillusioned of love and believing all the love songs and books exaggerated,
she put aside her creativity for life. Many years past before characters, from
the familiar to the freshly conceived, came to her again, but this time teasing
at a new passion, the written word.
Gradually, her
real life hero brought love and magic back into existence. During the time when
her characters were getting reacquainted, the love of her life was showing her
that true love never gives up and rekindles no matter how many times others
attempt to extinguish it. Today, she is happily married with three children.
Andrea believes in
the power of change and delighting in each moment. But most fervently, she
believes in the magic of love and imagination again.
