The orcs have just reached the shores of Tanimara-a feat never before witnessed by the Elven Republic. In the thick of battle, Prince Velnir of Atlantin witnesses the brutality of the Orcs while nearly losing everything. The elves of Tanimara are a proud people, and Velnir cannot allow the ruthless invasion to go unpunished. With the other Tanimaran lords observing, the prince knows what must be done.

Velnir leaves Tanimara to seek help from the wizard, Alzar, now a steward of Abrion. The journey takes many unexpected turns, leaving him at the mercy of a beautiful enemy of Tanimara. His choices are simple: talk his way out or fight for his freedom. His eventual encounter with the wizard leaves him disappointed. Refusing to leave empty-handed, he takes what he needs to defeat the orcs, putting his army, people, and reputation on the line. He didn't risk everything traveling into unknown territory to give up now.

Alzar must reveal the true enemy to Velnir and convince him of the truth before it's too late. The fate of the mortal races lies in his hands. Velnir must learn from the crushing cost of his mistakes. It's the only way to defeat the orcs and the corrupted power of the age-old dragon that leads them. The time has come to make things right or die trying.

The Last Special Thing by Alyssa K. Burns

Illusion, Reality, Love, Identity

Amelia Cox has lived a charmed life of open credit cards, little parental oversight, and the perfect future mapped out for her. That is, until she gets unexpectedly dumped by her high school sweetheart right before they graduate. Now, with her plans in disarray, she's determined to have an unforgettable summer before she begins college at UCLA.

When Amelia meets Art Anderson, a charming chaos ju**ie whose bedroom has only a drum set and an air mattress, she believes she’s found the right person to provide her with some adventure. Her relationship with Art is intoxicating, and between late nights, personalized playlists, and effortless connection, Amelia knows their connection is something special.

Art tests every boundary Amelia has set for herself, and as they embark on a summer doing drugs and breaking laws, the line between adventure and destruction becomes razor thin. Amelia must choose between the privileged life she had planned and the guy who makes her heart race, for better or for worse.
