  • The Sultan's Heir

    Christina Bates

    language (Christina Bates, Aug. 30, 2016)
    The sultan is a dangerous man. His word is law, his rule is absolute, his lust to conquer... insatiable. The battle against Ronan that claims his father's life makes Erezhad the new sultan of Zaityra, and after years of suffering, Erezhad hopes to create a peaceful future for his people. His sister, the Princess Seraya, is dedicated to helping with her brother's goal of peace, even if it means working closely with a Ronan soldier. But their new rule is on tenuous ground. The sheiks do not trust the new talks of peace and the people are anxious that their sultan has an heir to ensure the promised future, while the harem woman Zamaya watches and waits... and plots to manipulate the future for her own ends. The future of Zaityra depends on The Sultan's Heir.*Important note to readers: The Sultan's Heir novella contains violence, swearing, and sexual references. Despite this, the romance in this series is "slow burn" and not explicit. It is a tale of turmoil, forbidden love, and deception that will appeal to lovers of fantasy, action adventure, epics, young adult, new adult, romance, and historical fiction.Look here for The Desert Princess, book 2: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LBUXEEG

  • Wolves And Roses

    Christina Bauer

    eBook (Monster House Books, LLC, Oct. 31, 2017)
    "Must read YA paranormal romance!" - USA TodaySeventeen-year-old Bryar Rose has a problem. She’s descended from one of the three magical races—shifters, fairies, or witches. That makes her one of the Magicorum, and Magicorum always follow a fairy tale life template. In Bryar’s case, that template should be Sleeping Beauty.Should being the key word.Trouble is, Bryar is nowhere near the sleeping beauty life template. Not even close. She doesn’t like birds or woodland creatures. She can’t sing. And she certainly can’t stand Prince Philpot, the so-called “His Highness of Hedge Funds” that her aunties want her to marry. Even worse, Bryar’s having recurring dreams of a bad boy hottie and is obsessed with finding papyri from ancient Egypt. What’s up with that? “Exciting and well-conceived” – KirkusAll Bryar wants is to attend a regular high school with normal humans and forget all about shifters, fairies, witches, and the curse that Colonel Mallory the Magnificent placed on her. And she might be able to do just that--if only she can just keep her head down until her eighteenth birthday when the spell that’s ruined her life goes buh-bye.But that plan gets turned upside down when Bryar Rose meets Knox, the bad boy who’s literally from her dreams. Knox is a powerful werewolf, and his presence in her life changes everything, and not just because he makes her knees turn into Jell-O. If Bryar can’t figure out who—or what—she really is, it might cost both her and Knox their lives… as well as jeopardize the very nature of magic itself."A fun romp for Twilight fans."- School Library Journal.Perfect for readers who love young adult books, contemporary fantasy, fairy tales, gamma guys, satire/comedy, paranormal romance, fairies, magic users, shapeshifters, and coming of age stories.
