Following the first book in "Lotus" in "The Wyvren Trilogy," "Orchid" follows Ren as she truly explores through the world introduced in "Lotus." Ren is introduced to a mysteriously omnipotent character that challenges her trust in what she learned from Karine as she explores a new timeline full of possibilities; possibilities she hopes will allow her to save her allies from their fate and perhaps truly thwart the progress of Spring's dark desires for the mortal world. As Ren explores new timelines, she is forced to deal with the decisions she made on the surrounding ones, showing her the visceral impact of what failure can mean.

El Diácono Francisco Enderle, ex Director Ejecutivo del Diaconado Permanente de la Arquidiócesis de Washington y el ex Director de Formación del Clero de la Diócesis de Sacramento comenzó en el año 2000 a escribir homilías en español para publicación en Internet. Este libro es el segundo tomo de la serie Homilias/Homilies Domingo/Sunday Ciclo/Cycle B. Contiene 57 homilías en español, con sus traducciones al inglés. Fue escrito para los predicadores que prefieren leer las homilías en libro en vez de en el Internet. La diferencia entre este libro bilingüe y otros es que las homilías fueron escritas en español y traducidas al inglés y no al revés, como se suele hacer en otros libros. Esperamos que estos libros sean útiles tanto para los predicadores de habla Hispana como para los de habla Inglesa que tienen que predicar en español.Deacon Frank Enderle, former Executive Director of the Permanent Diaconate in the Archdiocese of Washington and former Director of Clergy Formation in the Diocese of Sacramento, began writing and publishing homilies in Spanish on the Internet in 2000. This book is the second in the Homilias/Homilies Domingo/Sunday Ciclo/Cycle B series. It contains 57 Spanish homilies with English translations. It is published specifically for those who preach who prefer to read the homilies in book format rather than on the Internet. The difference between this bilingual book and others is that these homilies were originally written in Spanish and translated into English, not vice-versa, as in other books. We hope that these books will be useful to native Spanish speakers who preach as well as to native English speakers who find they must preach in Spanish.

A dangerous warrior holds her captive... But her freedom comes at a price. Running from a man intent on making her his bride, Freya de Rayne flees her village to hide at the last place he would expect to find her--the city of Maranthe. As a Lhianne, born with the ability to manipulate the earth and wind, the last thing Freya expects is to be caught working in the city without a permit. Thrown into prison, she meets the striking warlord Garrett Bradis, who makes her an offer--stay their prisoner... Or work for him. She didn't know who he was... Garrett Bradis, Head of the Vhenn Bradis Family, needs to secure an alliance with the Lhiannes. The storms are growing more vicious, and the Lhiannes are the only ones who can help stop them.

But when an army of once vanquished beasts rises from the ashes, it might threaten to destroy everything they hold dear.

Love may just be the most dangerous game of all. RILEYIf history has taught me anything, it's that blood's definitely not thicker than water, whereas my profession as a youth worker, helping troubled teens affected by crime, seems to only further solidify that belief. However, it's hard to cut your familial ties when all your mistakes stare back at you in the eyes of the woman you're not meant to love. She was too young, and ethically speaking, our relationship would have been taboo at best. So I shoved those feelings down, convinced I was doing the right thing. Especially for her. That is, until the past comes calling back, threatening both the life I've worked so hard to build and the woman I've tried to forget. SIENNAAfter a less-than-stellar upbringing, despite the best efforts of my big brother turned guardian, I've tried to stay out of trouble and make new friends. Better friends. But how do you ever recover from the type of wounds that just won't stop bleeding? How do you move on from rejection, when it's reflected back at you from across the dinner table? That's easy. You don't. Instead, I've avoided him, his family and even my own. All in the name of self-preservation. Little did I realize that the strongest emotional walls can come crumbling down, when I once again find myself face to face with the worst of my youthful indiscretions. Avoidance no longer a viable option, can I trust him to protect not only my life but my poorly stitched heart? Sometimes love is worth a little danger. Trigger Warning: Mentions of suicide, past and present emotional traumas, treated and untreated mental illnesses as well as histories of sexual assault.

Falling in love might just be the best and worst thing for my emotional health. GRACE As a dietician, I'm passionate about one thing: finding a way to promote healthy eating habits. I want the public to realize they don't have to sacrifice flavor for nutrition. It's possible to have both. When I'm presented with the opportunity of a lifetime, the only thing standing in my way is the egotistical, infuriating, admittedly attractive chef cradling my dream in his hands. AVERY All I want is to create my culinary art. In peace. And away from the BS complicating my life. I finally have a chance to escape the shadows that have haunted me for years. I just have to complete one more job-work some fancy cooking gig while spying on one of my new colleagues. Sounds easy enough, until I meet the woman who somehow becomes both the bane of my existence and my saving grace. But I can't afford to get distracted. It's not just my wellbeing on the line. Things are getting hot in the kitchen. Will they get burned, or will love warm their hearts? Trigger Warning: Mentions of sexual assault.

Why does forbidden fruit always taste the sweetest? JARRYD As a doctor, I take my promise "to do no harm" very seriously, which is how I find myself pressured into court-ordered therapy. I might have to sit on her couch and listen to her probing questions, all while imagining her long legs wrapped around my waist or draped over my shoulders, but that doesn't mean I have to bare my soul. APRIL I've been slaving away at the local clinic, biding my time until I can register as a private therapist. Nothing is going to take my eyes off the prize. Not even the sexy new patient lounging on the couch in my office. Sure, he's hot, and I'd like to take him for a spin. But the price of crossing that professional line is too high, and the cost is my dream. When the truth reveals itself, will they keep their forbidden promise? Or will it shatter, along with their hearts?
