...Ironically for the time traveling, chief seer of the supernatural world, time has never been on Cassie Palmer's side. There has always seemed to be too much to learn, too much to master, and never enough hours in a day. But the tables have now turned, and the fluctuating timelines of Earth and Faerie are diverging, slowing time in Faerie relative to Earth, and giving humans an advantage for the first time in their war with the fey. It is one they

Long before Dorina Basarab was a respected member of the Vampire Senate, she was an outcast known as a dhampir.

Recently, a war in the supernatural community allowed her to gain a foothold in her vampire father's world, one of danger, intrigue, glitz and glamour, where she found not only a home,
