Lyla's life is planned. In a few months, she'll be leaving her stifling small village and the vicious rumors that have marked her as unsuitable to be anyone's wife, for the endless opportunities of the large port city of Balast. There she will finish her training as a magical healer, join an adventuring team, and see the world beyond the mountainous valleys of the High Passes that she's lived in her whole life.
Then a tragedy strikes.
Lyla doesn't know the secret that the soldier who saved her life is keeping from her. Worse yet, she doesn't know that he accidentally bound himself to her when he saved her life and that without her he will slowly lose his mind. What she does know is that her parents, the village elders, and even her best friend, are falling all over themselves to marry her off to this nearly perfect stranger with far too many muscles for her to take him seriously.
Can she escape this unexpected marriage that is messing up her plans for greatness? Will she even want to? Or will this be exactly the kind of adventure she was hoping for all along?

Daniel's got a crush on one of his coworkers. Like really bad. Follow her to hell and back bad as he tells his buddies. When he agreed to help her with a problem, Daniel didn't think he'd actually get his chance to prove his words with actions. Now possession, fighting demons, and yes, closing Hellmouths look like they are on the table. How far will he go to impress the woman he thinks is "the one"? "Into the Abyss" is a campy romp in urban paranormal horror and the sequel to "Shadow Hound"
