When Breen Kelly was a girl, her father would tell her stories of magical places. Now she’s an anxious 20-something mired in student debt and working a job she hates. But one day she stumbles upon a shocking discovery: Her mother has been hiding an investment account in her name. It has been funded by her long-lost father - and it’s worth nearly four million dollars.

Lang geleden bouwde Arthur Poole een groot huis in Maine dat uitkeek over de onstuimige oceaan. Nu woont Sonya MacTavish in het huis, dat al generaties lang vervloekt is. Ze was er getuige van de dood van zeven bruiden en van de diefstal van zeven trouwringen. Vastbesloten om deze plek te vullen met licht, leven en hoop, besluit Sonya dat het tijd is om de vloek te verbreken en de kwaadaardige geest eens en voor altijd te verbannen. Maar de vrouw in de zwarte jurk blijft rondwaren en laat zich in angstaanjagende verschijningen aan Sonya zien.

Determined to reevaluate her life, Jude Murray flees America to take refuge in Faerie Hill Cottage, immersing herself in the study of Irish folklore and discovering hope for the future of the magical past.

Breen Siobhan Kelly grew up in the world of Man and was once unaware of her true nature. Now she is in Talamh, trying to heal after a terrible battle and heartbreaking losses. Her grandfather, the dark god Odran, has been defeated in his attempt to rule over Talamh, and over Breen—for now. With the enemy cast out and the portal sealed, this is a time to rest and to prepare. Breen spreads her wings and realizes a power she’s never experienced before.

The world of magick and the world of man have long been estranged from one another. But some can walk between the two—including Breen Siobhan Kelly. She has just returned to Talamh, with her friend, Marco, who’s dazzled and disoriented by this realm—a place filled with dragons and faeries and mermaids (but no WiFi, to his chagrin). In Talamh, Breen is not the ordinary young schoolteacher he knew her as. Here she is learning to embrace the powers of her true identity. Marco is welcomed kindly by her people—and by Keegan, leader of the Fey.

Years ago, after their blood brother ritual, Gage, Fox, and Caleb emerged from the woods, each with a piece of bloodstone. Now, it will become their weapon in the final fight against the demon they awakened. Winner take all...

Shared nightmares, visions of blood and fire, and random violence begin to plague the longtime friends and Quinn, Layla, and Cybil, the women bound to them by fate. None of them can ignore the fact that, this year, the demon has grown stronger - feeding off of the terror it creates.

Every seven years, on the seventh day of the seventh month, strange things happen. It began when three young boys - Caleb, Fox, and Gage - went on a camping trip to the Pagan Stone. And 21 years later, it will end in a showdown between evil and the boys who have become men - and the women who love them.

For Fox, Caleb, Gage and the other residents of Hawkins Hollow, the number seven portends doom - ever since, as boys, they freed a demon trapped for centuries when their blood spilled upon The Pagan Stone.

It began on New Year’s Eve. The sickness came on suddenly, and spread quickly. The fear spread even faster. Within weeks, everything people counted on began to fail them. The electrical grid sputtered; law and government collapsed - and more than half of the world’s population was decimated. Where there had been order, there was now chaos. And as the power of science and technology receded, magick rose up in its place.

Auftakt der großen Trilogie von Bestsellerautorin Nora Roberts. Die junge Lana und ihren Mann Max verbindet eine große und außergewöhnliche Liebe. Als eine weltweite Seuche ausbricht und New York innerhalb kürzester Zeit ins Chaos stürzt, fliehen Lana und Max aus der Stadt und gründen die Gemeinschaft New Hope. Doch auch hier rückt die Gefahr dem Paar bedrohlich nahe. Lana setzt alles daran, dem Inferno zu entkommen, denn sie trägt inzwischen ein Kind unter dem Herzen - die "Auserwählte", ihre zukünftige Tochter, die als Einzige in der Lage sein wird, dem Leid der Menschheit ein Ende zu setzen.

After the sickness known as the Doom destroyed civilization, magick has become commonplace, and Fallon Swift has spent her young years learning its ways. Fallon cannot live in peace until she frees those who have been preyed upon by the government or the fanatical Purity Warriors, endlessly hunted or locked up in laboratories, brutalized for years on end. She is determined to save even those who have been complicit with this evil out of fear or weakness - if, indeed, they can be saved.

Fallon Swift, approaching her thirteenth birthday, barely knows the world that existed before - the city where her parents lived, now in ruins and reclaimed by nature since the Doom sickened and killed billions. Traveling anywhere is a danger, as vicious gangs of Raiders and fanatics called Purity Warriors search for their next victim. Those like Fallon, in possession of gifts, are hunted - and the time is coming when her true nature, her identity as The One, can no longer be hidden.

Nieuwe bruid, nieuwe puzzel, zelfde vloek. Het tweede deel in de Verloren bruid-serie Wanneer Sonya MacTavish het enorme Victoriaanse landhuis aan de kust van Maine erft, heeft ze geen idee dat het in het huis spookt. De voetstappen die ze 's nachts hoort, de deuren die dichtslaan, de muziek die opeens speelt, het zijn geen verzinsels van haar verbeelding. In haar dromen ziet ze glimpen van het verleden. In het heden vindt ze portretten van bruiden. En als ze visioenen krijgt van een antieke spiegel, voelt ze dat er duistere familiegeheimen zijn.

Life is busier than ever for Innkeeper, Dina DeMille and Sean Evans. But it’s about to get even more chaotic when Sean's werewolf mentor is kidnapped. To find him, they must host an intergalactic spouse-search for one of the most powerful rulers in the Galaxy. Dina is never one to back down from a challenge. That is, if she can manage her temperamental Red Cleaver chef; the consequences of her favorite Galactic ex-tyrant's dark history; the tangled politics of an interstellar nation, and oh, yes, keep the wedding candidates from a dozen alien species from killing each other.

Grafisch ontwerper Sonya MacTavish is sprakeloos als ze een landhuis erft van haar oom van wie ze het bestaan niet kende. En wat ze ook niet weet, is dat ze niet de enige bewoner van het landhuis is: de geest van een vermoorde bruid is nog altijd aanwezig. Volgens het testament moet Sonya minstens drie jaar in het huis, aan de kust van Maine, blijven wonen. Ze besluit op onderzoek uit te gaan in de hoop erachter te komen hoe haar vader en oom na hun geboorte gescheiden zijn geraakt en waarom dit al die jaren geheim is gebleven.

Sie ist die Auserwählte, die nach der Apokalypse die Welt wiederaufbauen und ihre Bewohner vereinen soll. Aber die junge Frau wird auch von ihren eigenen Verwandten bedroht, die sie und ihre Familie vernichten wollen. Ihre große Mission fällt Fallon jedoch mittlerweile leichter als die Deutung ihrer Gefühle für Duncan, dessen Schicksal unvermeidlich mit ihrem verwoben ist.
