About the book:
The
winged knights—magically altered humans—are the only ones defending the portal
from Av'lor to Earth. With defeat imminent, they find an unlikely source of
hope in software engineer, Kathryn.
Kathryn doubts her life could
get any worse after the death of her mother and daughter. She realizes her
mistake after she arrives on Av'lor with only part of her house and hungry
creatures looking for their next meal. Once the knights bring her under their
protection, she discovers their angry commander is far from welcoming.
Sir Lanclor, Commander of the
Knighthood, lives with the curse of betrayal. While the treachery occurred
lifetimes before, few see past his guarded shell to the grim man beneath.
Barely holding the Knighthood together, his grip tightens when Kathryn joins
their ranks. Her stubbornness and surprising strength not only energizes the
knights, but also makes Sir Lanclor question his self-imposed isolation.
With the approach of an
invading army, Kathryn and Sir Lanclor must find a way to end centuries of war
and save two worlds.
EXCERPT
"Just leave it alone, Lord Alextor." Lanclor didn’t glance away from the window."Don’t you ‘Lord Alextor’ me, Lan." Alextor grabbed his shoulder and swung him around. "Tell me what’s going on." Alextor looked him in the eye, unwavering.Lanclor glared at him, but knew Alextor was too stubborn to let it rest. He looked down at Alextor’s hand upon his shoulder. His friend quickly removed it. Lanclor walked over to his desk and sat down, placing his elbows upon the desk and clenching his hands together. "Yes, I had some luck.""And?""And what?""Do you know who she was?" Alextor gave him an irritated look."Yeah. Someone I should never have gotten involved with.""She was that bad, huh? You’ll regroup next time, find someone better."Lanclor looked away, clenching his jaw. "Yeah." He felt Alextor’s stare boring into the side of his head."By the Goddess.""What?" Lanclor looked up with an innocent expression that didn’t quite meet his eyes."You pursued someone you cared for.""I have no idea what you’re talking about." Lanclor rose from his chair. "I have reports to do. We’ll have to talk later.""Bullshit. You write those reports for me, so if I don’t care about them right now, you shouldn’t either. Who was it, Lan?" Alextor leaned with both hands upon Lanclor’s desk, glaring at him.Lanclor gave the window a momentary glance, then returned Alextor’s glare. "It’s not any of your business." He cursed the despair in his voice.
