Mating season. The time when a young man’s heart turns to creating a permanent bond with the one he loves. At least, in theory. But Adam seems to have no interest in mating with Cullen, though they’ve been together for years. Cullen can’t even take comfort in sure knowledge of Adam’s feelings for him as Adam has yet to say the words “I love you.” Adam’s parents screwed up when they mated. The bond forged by the mating bite, supposed to be a way for mates to share their love and devotion, became a conduit for their hatred and bitterness. He won’t do that to someone he loves, or to himself. Cullen seems to understand, which is one of the things Adam loves about the man. But Cullen doesn’t understand, and Adam’s forced to decide if he’s strong enough to face his fears for the man he loves. Please enjoy this FREE Pack Mates short story.

Relief and joy fill the Faeltheon survivors when they locate their long-lost island home, but their happiness is tempered with caution. Finding their sanctuary inhabited by Humans alarms many of the Elves, though these Humans seem friendly and open. As the two cultures settle down to share the island together, what challenges will they face? Though all seems to be progressing smoothly, their implacable enemy still seeks to destroy them utterly. Will Corot succeed in his evil plan to annihilate the Faeltheon, or will the island sanctuary truly become the long-desired Elvenhome? 'Elvenhome is a delightful story of joy, friendship, sorrow, fear, and the bending of natural desires to the will of the Creator, knowing He truly knows best...' —Deborah Newren, mother of four 'Elvenhome easily wins five out of five stars for me. The Faeltheon books are full of bittersweet wonder that connects you personally to the Elves and Faeries... Young girls lacking something to believe in will benefit especially from these books. I know I did.' —Abygail Merlino, high school freshman
