She loved me. I failed her. She loves me. I'll break her. Tristan Westdyke seems to have it all: he's handsome, athletic, smart, and admired.

Blaming himself for the loss of another person, Tristan trudges through life not allowing himself to feel. But when the beautiful and energetic Katelyn Sharp barrels into his life, Tristan is helpless to resist emotions long buried. A connection slowly grows between the two, yet secrets and deceit threaten to shatter the fragile trust and love they’ve found. Can two people who have been hurt and betrayed open their hearts up once more? Can both accept that all may have happened For a Reason?

When the sun goes down, passion is unleashed. Pendragon Gargoyles, Book 1 Kennedy Beaumont loves her bartending job, even if her spirited nature sometimes gets her in trouble. Like threatening to hose down one of Pendragon s co-owners. When it comes to Tristan, she could use a good hosing down herself­maybe it ll help her stop casting him as the star of her wickedest dreams. Since he goes out of his way to avoid her, it ought to be easy to put him out of her head­until he reluctantly offers her a ride home. Gargoyle shape-shifter Tristan Callaghan hasn t had time for anything other than recovering the mystical dagger that was used to permanently lock his brother in a prison of stone.

The distraction is costly. In a split second, Kennedy finds herself thrust into a dangerous, millennia-old hunt for Excalibur. A hunt that marks her for death­and leaves Tristan with a painful choice­sacrifice his family, his quest or the one woman meant to be his. Warning: There s nothing tame about this alpha male hell-bent on claiming his mate. Featuring bone-melting explicit sex, graphic language, violence and a little harmless bite or two.

From Publishers WeeklyThe computerized, corporation-controlled future offers little inspiration for college student John Reddy. When he inadvertently sees a sorceress awaken King Arthur from centuries-long slumber, John becomes an unwilling participant in the quest to reunite Arthur with the sword Caliburn. This may sound like tired material, but Charrette (Never Trust an Elf) juxtaposes past legend with future world to create clever twists in the tale. A magical parallel world seeks to reestablish its power among men by creating a convergence. In the process, on onslaught of elves, demons, fairies, goblins, private detectives, secret service agents and corporate executives attempt to either help or hinder the fabled reunion of king and sword. Unfortunately, this menagerie also prevents character development, and reader confusion often substitutes for suspense. In spite of these drawbacks, the story offers a heart-pumping ride as the world of humans and the Realm of Faery head for collision. The first in a trilogy, this is also the first paperback in Warner's new Aspect imprint devoted primarily to science fiction and fantasy. Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. Product DescriptionWhen a mysterious woman forces museum guard John Reddy to reawaken King Arthur from stasis, the guard and king encounter the Earth-threatening forces of the underworld, and must unleash the equally dangerous Caliburn.
