Winter Mulcahy’s life is getting better since her brush with death in October. She has a new family and they are helping her to grieve and rebuild her shattered life. She is learning to balance family, medicine, and holding the chaos of living among the preternaturals of Seahaven at bay. She meets a wizard, Alerich Ashimar, with the soul of a poet and the heart of a demon who is desperate to escape the life and choices that have been forced onto him. This man may hold the secret to the tragedies that have plagued House Mulcahy, but time is running out—for them both. Alerich’s family is bound to a demon in a powerful geas set by his grandmother. Kill every Mulcahy by the upcoming winter solstice and her dead husband will be returned to her. Fail, and Alerich’s father, Magnus, will be forfeited to the demon. Magnus sends Alerich to collect Winter, the last of the Mulcahys, and bring her to the demon’s gate before the rapidly approaching deadline passes. Alerich is horribly conflicted. He has been trying to mend his estranged relationship with his father, and he doesn’t want his father to die. But nor does he want to kill this beautiful, kind woman upon whom so many depend. When Alerich does not bring the girl at the appointed time, his father, feeling that Alerich has abandoned and betrayed him, strikes a terrible deal with the demon—something the demon has always wanted in exchange for the power to kill this last Mulcahy and his traitorous son. **

Only the lords of the four great fortresses remain vigilant and loyal to the kingdom. Deva seems doomed, as the legions of the Protectorate march. Lord Keverin of Fortress Athione is desperate to save his people and the land that he serves, but magic has long since waned in Deva's people. Keverin knows that without a strong mage he is doomed to failure. A spell is cast to bring a champion to his aid, but something goes wrong and a Julia Morton suddenly finds herself stranded on an alien world with no friends and no way home. The Power That Binds (Book2) : Having come to terms with her new role in Deva, Julia is content to live in the fortress with her lover, Lord Keverin, and keep vigil over Deva's western border but the sorcerers of the Protectorate never rest. Lord Mortain, first Lord Sorcerer and absolute ruler of the Protectorate, orders a new two-pronged attack into motion. Firstly, General Navarien and his recently rebuilt fifth legion is ordered to take three coastal cities in Camorin thereby securing a strong point in the north from which he will take Fortress Malcor with Deva to quickly follow. Secondly, he relies on a traitor close to Deva's king, a gamble that pays off handsomely when Pergann is assassinated. The Warrior Within (Book3) : Julia has been defeated and all seems lost. Now, in The Warrior Within, we find Julia suffering from her enforced Tancred addiction and Keverin crossing Deva on his desperate mission to save her. Winter lies heavy upon the land, and Shelim, one time warrior and now shaman of the Night Wind Clan, is far from home.

Reunited with Julia when his best friend proves his mastery over a clan swordmaster, Keverin has every intention of returning with Julia to Athione and his wedding. Julia has other ideas. Rescued from the sorcerers by Shelim's mentor, Julia is determined to repay her debt by ending Navarien's threat once and for all. Little does Julia know, but Mortain's heir has sent his son to Navarien with two hundred sorcerers and thirty thousand legionnaires to personally oversee the clan's destruction.
