BOOK TWOIn this second installment of the 'League of Ascenders' series we return to the town of Evergreen where yet another troublesome demon is up to no good. The now twelve Ascenders have been informed of a level-three demon that they thought had been done away with years before, and are forced to try and find him before he wreaks havoc upon them. Love is most certainly in the air, as Larimar has finally arrived at The Landing, and when she and London are not arguing, they're teleporting to distant lands where they often find themselves in precarious situations. Brandolyn is forced to confront her past before she can move forward with Vaughn; Stevie-frightened by the prospect of love-rejects Flynn until disaster strikes; Noah struggles to understand that he cannot leave his beloved Mina behind to keep her safe; and Bailey learns to get out of his own way when it comes to winning Quinne. Join the Ascenders in another romantic supernatural adventure with a flying cruise ship, fantastic creatures, a masquerade ball, exotic places, and the battle of good against evil-and get ready for a surprise ending!

For all of you who couldn't get enough of Xander and Greer of The Light of Xander, this novelette follows the two of them in a new love story. Xander has tried desperately for years to avoid the radiant girl with the fiery curls. When he is subjected to her presence, the light within her shines so brightly that it threatens to tear down the stone wall that has long since been guarding his heart. If only he can make it to graduation just a couple short months away, then he'll be free of her forever, and safe on the other side of the world at university. But it takes just one strict professor to ruin all his plans. And when Xander is forced to maintain contact with the very female he has so fervently striven to avoid, to his dismay, his resolve slowly weakens, and he finds himself at the mercy of his own traitorous heart.

Thatcher Donovan is livid; he was fortunate enough to acquire a coveted spot at The Heart of Stone Manor only to come face to face with the radiant Lore Jacobs. The far-away, secret, and dangerous mountaintop was supposed to be the ideal place to perfect his craft while being free of any threat to his aim of remaining unbound by troublesome females; he quickly realizes, however, that he is profoundly mistaken. Just as he's about to give up his scholarship to seek another means of sharpening his skills, he finds that he is loath to leave The Heart of Stone Manor-particularly The Hall of Light, and all its magnificent splendor. Thatcher is resolved to stay and simply find a way to avoid the dazzling Lore Jacobs; he does just that, until, that is, he realizes he has greatly misjudged her, and to his immense consternation, is no longer able to scorn her, and finds himself wholly and inescapably beguiled by her charm...except now it may be too late.

From the moment he awakened to find the beautiful Bryony at his hospital bedside, Luke knew he had to have her as his own. Imagine his surprise when he finds that he is already married to her! When she realizes that waiting for her husband to love her is a lost cause, Bryony Blake gives up. But the two angels assigned to watch over them have something else in mind, and as their elaborate plan goes into effect, Luke finds himself waking up in the hospital with no recollection of the past nine years-including any memories of his wife. Although Bryony tries her best to convince Luke that the best place for him is with his parents, he is adamant about moving back into their home, and to Bryony's great dismay, is determined to win her heart. Bryony wonders what happened to her husband, because he's not the man she brought home! This 'new' Luke has the same face, and the same name, but he is sweet, considerate, and worst of all: he sends her pulse racing like the Indy 500. But memories of how he treated her are fresh in her mind, and she does her best to dissuade him from his pursuit of her. And she's not the only one trying to thwart heavenly plans; the demon that 'old' Luke invited in continues to prowl around, searching for a doorway back inside, and if he has his way, Luke and Bryony will be no more. Thankfully, with a little assistance from two clever angels, Luke and Bryony might just succeed on their journey to find forgiveness, redemption, and lasting love, in this heart-warming supernatural romance.

Xander James would never have guessed that the goals he had set for his life after high school would change so drastically. He encounters an angel named Griff who gives him a choice; if he chooses correctly, it will set into motion a more profound, and supernatural adventure than he's ever dreamed possible. But along with important tasks, often comes danger, and the darkness is always watching. But Griff is a clever angel, and commands Xander to seek out the very person he was trying to avoid: Greer McLean. Incredibly, she will become part of the remarkable journey Xander finds himself on, and will help to teach him all about the Light. Sloane, Caris, and a fifth member will join them on their quest, and each of them will be given powerful gifts to accomplish their task. Being in such close proximity to Greer, forces Xander to face his feelings...but how could he ever be worthy of the girl he's cruelly tormented since childhood? Her Light is a raging fire, while his is still as dim as cooling embers. What awesome event is about to take place that will change the entire world forever? And will Xander and his friends survive on the mission? Will it all have been worth it in the end?

This short story takes you back to the beginnings of one of your favorite 'League of Ascenders' characters. Vaughn wasn't always a powerful Ascender with a loving family. Take a trip back to where it all began-when he was still an awkward young boy with no friends and a seemingly hopeless future. Learn how he and his horse, Eli, meet, and about the life-changing event that takes place that very day as he discovers his true potential. With a little help from above and one magnificent black stallion, Vaughn will embark on his first adventure that will far exceed all his dreams; he will be free of the horrible place he was forced to call home, and never have to look back. Experience the moment Vaughn realizes his supernatural gifts, and engages in his first battle to overcome the darkness, and finds the courage to begin his God-appointed journey.

Most folks in the town of Evergreen believe that the Landing's sole function is as a homeless shelter, and although the homeless-who are lovingly called guests-see strange happenings around the Landing, they still have no idea that it is actually the home and training grounds of an elite group called the 'League of Ascenders.' This group of six women and six men-each with unique supernatural powers-make up just one division of a worldwide alliance in which the members are called to protect humanity from evil harm. It's time for new members to take the place of old, but the new members must first make the same long and perilous journey as the Ascenders before them. And even though they only expect to discover who they are, they are surprised to also discover who they were meant to love. As the fledglings grow in skill into full-fledged Ascenders, they learn that the things you can't see are often more real than the things you can; that love comes even when you try to fight it; and that God really does work in mysterious ways. Friends become enemies and enemies become friends in this supernatural adventure of battle between good and evil, and the promise of love.

Tucked into one corner of the little-known City of Sparks, Nevada is a place called The Narrow Gate, where flowers and butterflies flourish in the winter; a dragon is kept at bay with a song; and an angel watches over its inhabitants. As natural disasters continue to affect every city across the earth, hundreds of thousands are forced from their homes and way of life. On a mission to find a safe place to begin again, eight complete strangers find themselves at The Narrow Gate B&B simply by chance...or is it? Having to endure the sting of loss, they each grow and heal together, and discover that The Narrow Gate is not just any old bed & breakfast, but a place that holds secrets within its walls-literally; a place they were each meant to find. In this Supernatural adventure, miracles await Lee, Rachel, Fox, Aliza, East, Everly, Journey, and Pilot as the spiritual realm comes to life, and unseen forces compel them forward towards freedom, redemption, and love at The Narrow Gate.
