Book Description
In this wrenching sequel to Divided We Fall, Danny and friends fight to defend Idaho against a Federal takeover and the ravages of a Burning Nation. At the end of Divided We Fall, Danny Wright's beloved Idaho had been invaded by the federal government, their electricity shut off, their rights suspended. Danny goes into hiding with his friends in order to remain free. But after the state declares itself a Republic, Idaho rises to fight in a second American Civil War, and Danny is right in the center of the action, running guerrilla missions with his fellow soldiers to break the Federal occupation. Yet what at first seems like a straightforward battle against governmental repression quickly grows more complicated, as more states secede, more people die, and Danny discovers the true nature of some of his new allies. Chilling, powerful, and all too plausible, Burning Nation further establishes Trent Reedy as a provocative new voice in YA fiction.

Book Description
Monica McCarty’s novels of Scottish historical romance are the gold standard in a genre known for sensual intrigue. In this riveting trilogy, the men and women of the Campbell clan lose themselves in the velvet darkness of passionate nights, play deadly games of murder and treason, and fight to forge a love as strong as the sword that rules the Highlands. This up-all-night eBook bundle includes: HIGHLAND WARRIOR The ruthless enforcer of Scotland’s most powerful clan, Jamie Campbell will use any means necessary to vanquish unrest among the feuding Highlanders, but when he poses as a suitor to a rival clan’s daughter, the line between duty and pleasure is suddenly blurred. Caitrina Lamont has no intention of forsaking her father and brothers for a husband—especially a hated Campbell. But Jamie’s raw, sensual strength and searing kiss melt her resistance. When her idyllic world is shattered, Caitrina finds that her only hope lies in the arms of the enemy. HIGHLAND OUTLAW Handsome and dangerous, Patrick MacGregor is a wanted man who will stop at nothing to save his outlawed clan, even if it means marrying Elizabeth Campbell, the daughter of his worst enemy. Yet the flaxen-haired beauty makes him want much more than revenge. Inside the shy and dutiful Lizzie, a passionate woman longs to emerge. So when the piercing emerald eyes of a stranger spark a desperate hunger, she surrenders to Patrick’s glorious seduction—unaware that his daring deception has just found its one and only chance for redemption. HIGHLAND SCOUNDREL Framed for a crime he did not commit, Duncan Campbell has returned to the Highlands to clear his name. After ten years in exile, Duncan is drawn to the headstrong girl who once betrayed him—and who now shows him the bad end of a pistol. No longer a starry-eyed girl but a woman with dangerous secrets, Jeannie Gordon cannot forgive Duncan’s shattering mistrust of her nor can she sign his death warrant by turning him in. Soon passion flares hotter and bolder than before, sealing a fate the onetime lovers can no longer deny.
