Blurb for Forever And A Day

Cy went through hell in Into The Dreaming to rescue Desi from the clutches of his people's worst enemy.  Now she's safe and sound in the Celestial Caverns but House Celestia is once again in turmoil in their leader’s absence.

Desi never thought Cy would be for her after he left her heartbroken years ago.  But his valiant efforts to rescue her from Kraken soon changed her mind.  There's just one problem: Desi is human with a human's lifespan while Cy's wolf-shifter nature will keep him alive for centuries more to come.

Did the gods really choose such a heartbreaking fate for them, or is there something else up their sleeves?

Blurb for Sweet Enemy

You met Allyce and Ajax in Into The Dreaming, a fated pair fighting on opposite sides of an immortal war and determined to claim each other despite being each other’s Sweet Enemy.


Now with a single decision they’re reunited – with two worlds’ worth of hurt between them.  Can these two lovers heal their past in order to save their future?

Forever And A Day

A House Celestia Novella

By Stephanie Brooks

Copyright © 2013 Stephanie Brooks

All Rights Reserved

“This is House Celestia, love.  Trust me things can always get worse.” ~ Cy

Prologue

“Desi,” the voice ruptured the silence in the synthetic darkness of the Celestial Cavern’s hallway like a tire iron to the back of her head.  “Come away now.  You need to rest.”

Turning her head she gives Cy a scathing glance.  Like he’s one to talk.  Neither of them have moved from their posts outside North’s – now Gen’s – chambers since they brought the near-comatose woman home.  Whether Cy remains out of guilt or some misplaced sense of duty or whatever she isn’t sure.

But that’s her friend inside that shrine to her lost love.

And she’s dying inside, a little more every day.

Desi is too, her heart is breaking and bleeding right along with Gen’s.

Whatever Cy feels, Desi’s guilt and her fear for her friend’s sanity and life are very real and very strong.  None of this ever would have happened if it wasn’t for her.  Gen would be snuggling and canoodling with her wolf-shifter lover and maybe making a little Prince or Princess for her people if not for Desi.  She’d be whole and happy and loved, something Desi’s wanted for her friend ever since she met her.

No one has ever deserved life, love, and happiness more than her Gen.

And instead of getting it her friend, her heart-sister, is fading.  Dying inside from having North’s soul torn away from her.

“Come away Desi.”  Cy says, a smile beginning to cross his handsome face.  His shifter hearing is picking up something from the chamber behind them.  Something he never thought to hear ever again.

“What the fuck are you smiling about?”  His brother is dead for mercy’s sake.

“Ssh.  Listen close.”  He takes her hand and tugs her next to the door.  “Can you hear it?”

Humoring him she presses her ear up to the stone slab they call a door only to jerk away in shock at what is coming from inside the room.

“Is that?”

“It’s laughter, Desi.”  Whooping he lifts her up and spins her around.  “Both of them are in there laughing.  I don’t know how or why, but he’s back, love.”  Dropping her back down to her feet Cy steals her mouth in a scorching kiss.

His brother’s back.

Forever And A Day Coming in October from author Stephanie Brooks!

Sweet Enemy Sneak Peek

Here's an excerpt from Sweet Enemy, coming in October along with Forever And A Day.

Sweet Enemy, Excerpt Copyright 2013 Stephanie Brooks

Ajax pushes through the rough and rowdy crowd of unwashed humans clogging the dockside tavern in search of his House Scion.  Amadan is ever seeking a good brawl ever since Ember ordered their House from Ireland and all other British-held lands.  House Cymru have been refugees in the months since that dictate, here in the territories of House Vesti controlled by Scion Siofra.  While many members of their House came to appreciate the lavish and luxe lifestyle among the spoiled aristocracy of Southern Europe, most including Amadan, long for the lush green and eternal fight for independence of Eire’s shores.

Especially Scion Amadan.

Spotting the wolf shifter lounging indolently on a bar stool in all his cat-like grace, a jug of wine held negligently in one hand, Ajax continues shouldering his way through the crowd studying his leader as he goes.

Hailing from a day long lost where Ireland was a free country ruled by their own, Amadan is rougher around the face and more heavily muscled than most modern men which appeals to women.  His black hair is mussed from long nights drinking and fighting while stubble shades his strong jaw.  Bright blue eyes are almost hidden under his heavy lids while their bloodshot whites are the only sign of the Scion’s current run of dissipation.  Ajax shrugs.  If human males choose to see the giant as a challenge to overcome who is he to save them from their stupidity?

Amadan glances up at one of the few Fae he tolerates and jerks his head at the stool beside him.  His friend isn’t going to be pleased by the news he received a few days ago – the current reason he’s been roaming from one bar to the next in search of a fight.  Hell’s before noon is a little early for drink, even for him.  Holding his peace while Ajax settles himself and finding his bottle empty, Amadan motions to the barkeep for another drink as well as one for his friend.  They’re both going to need it.

“Ember’s sent for you.”  Amadan states baldly once Ajax safely as his drink in hand.

His friend glups down a mouthful of the brew turned ever more bitter by this unpleasant news.

“Hells,” he swears.  “I’m supposed to have more time before I report to Elite Sirius’s Ranger corps.”

“You should’ve already been there.”  Ajax’s soon-to-be-former commander reminds him.  “It’s only because of this infernal move you were allowed to remain after surviving the Trials.  Plus our House will be relocating to the Colonies as well once the discord there dies down.”  The last thing Cymru needs is to be embroiled in another gods-bedamned war for independence after having given up the last after a fight that seems never to end in Ireland.

Ajax grunts in answer.  It’s true enough.  Warriors of every caste are shifted immediately to House Celestia after completing the Trials, the dangerous vetting process for entering House Celestia’s elite corps.  Warriors are either worthy and changed in both person and power…or dead.  There rarely is any other outcome.  Although there have been precedents.

“Besides,” Amadan continues.  “At least it’s looking like you’re walking into a fight.  The Colonials have been heating up in a big way and we all know Ember’s stand on liberty, government…and who controls that continent.”

“There is that.”  Ajax agrees.  “Viva la liberté.”  He toasts his friend with a grin.  Sobering he looks at this melancholy companion.  “I’m going to miss you, old friend.”

“Old?”  Amadan snorts.  “You don’t know the half of it.  You’re young for House Celestia at barely a thousand.  Some of those Elders and Elite remember a time before the Houses were formed.  You’ll soon learn the meaning of old.  And weird.”  He tacks on as an afterthought.  “They make us look downright normal.”

The Fae groans.

“You’re talking about my new Elite, aren’t you.”

Amadan laughs.  Sirius is the least of Ajax’s coming troubles.  Slapping him on the back the Scion stands.

“Don’t worry,” he teases.  “Those northern wolves’ll let you get settled in a little before teaching you to shift into a mutt and chase your tail.”

Ajax rests his head on the bar with a thud and groans again, gulping down the rest of his drink in one swallow.
