The Republic of Birds

Sun, 01 Nov 2020 20:56:46 +0200

A land of forbidden magic.
A book of ancient maps.
And a story of courage and sisterly love.

Magic is banned in Stolitsa. Any girl showing signs of being magical is whisked away to Bleak Steppe—to a life, so the stories go, of unspeakable horror.

So when strange things begin to happen to Olga, she knows she has a dangerous secret, one she must guard with great care.

But then the birds take the thing most precious to her, and Olga knows she must summon all her courage to go into the Republic of Birds to get it back.

It's an impossible task—unless she can find a way to unlock her hidden magic.

The Hairdresser Diaries

Mon, 19 Nov 2012 13:29:19 +0200

For Tatum, love has always been something to keep at a distance. It was easier and it was safer. As an independent young woman she is content to enjoy a life split casually between friends and her career. Her life changes one night when by chance she meets the mysterious Cole and finds herself irresistibly drawn to him. Almost instantly he leaves a lingering impression on her that is so perfect it's terrifying. Soon she isn’t sure what she wants and finds it impossible to get him off her mind. It’s everything about him. It’s the scent of him that lingers, the closeness of his breath, the slightest touch of his skin and the blue of his eyes that makes her very soul ache. The last thing she wants is to admit to love and the inevitable complications that come with it. But it isn’t long before her inability to reconcile what her heart wants sends her life spiraling out of her control and she becomes trapped in a dance of giving in and running away.

Before two people can share their lives, they need to face their past.
