Now available in print and ebook!

Ao never believed in monsters—not after being branded one since childhood. Exiled, he lives with his adoptive guardian, Kaisei Aizawa, amidst verdant valleys surrounded by desolation. 

Humanity only had themselves to blame for the wretched landscape. Their war poisoned the seas. Their greed coveted the fertile and the green. 

Their ambition set it ablaze.

One hundred years had passed since the war banished Talus to the skies. Doomed to chase the sun, the once proud nation survives as a floating city. But the fallen always hunger for more.

When the Talarians descend to claim the earth as their own, Ao escapes capture—but nothing is without its price. The only man he ever saw as family, Kaisei, is imprisoned instead. 

Ao vows to rescue him, no matter the cost—even if it means taking a stand against the most powerful nation left on earth. He knows of the risks. He knows of the dangers. But never would he know that someday, somehow, he would finally believe in monsters.

Introducing the new covers for bestselling author, C.J. Archer’s Lord Hawkesbury’s Players series.

In the ancient past, an abhorrent evil arises, led by ascendant demons. To defend her kingdom, a queen – also a powerful sorceress – creates the Acaia Crystal, named after her kingdom, into which she fuses all her magical powers and life force. Down through countless centuries her descendants bond with the Crystal to rule and protect the Acaia Kingdom. The Crystal performs its work….

…centuries later, an evil warlock called Thane frees a powerful demon named Varmu and binds its force to his soul, completely destroying the kingdom and its people. Before she dies, however, the Queen’s descendant, Princess Atalia makes a wish on the Crystal to reincarnate her family, her people, and the fair kingdom that had been home to many ancestors.

Three hundred years pass and Acaia is shockingly changed. The reincarnated Princess Atalia and her family have long lost their royal titles. The princess is now known as Melanie Tyler who – with confidant Caleb Bryan, former prince and fiancé from the past – as well as their families and friends – must confront the ageless threat. Although Varmu is once more imprisoned, Thane plots to free the horrific spirit once more and bind it to him. Determined to destroy the Acaia Crystal, Melanie, Caleb, and all of Acaia, the warlock renews his malicious quest to destroy all remnants of Acaia and its people.

The Crystal can help once more, but Melanie and Caleb, only sixteen-years-old, have forgotten their magic, their past, and the deep love they once shared. Spurred by their dramatic circumstances, affection is reborn as their memories bring pain and heartache as well as a joint commitment to prevent Thane and Varmu from destroying their lives and legacy forever. Time is short. Melanie and Caleb’s memories rekindle the love they once shared, but are their reborn emotions simply a dim echo from the irretrievable past?

Can the pair save the kingdom as well as reignite their love?

Kyona’s lost heir is found—but his birthright might be his greatest curse

Calinnae’s world is shattered when a discovery about his best friend Jonan brings the king’s soldiers down on both families. Barely avoiding their pursuers, the two friends escape with nothing but each other, and the stories of the past they grew up with. Stories that might hold answers, if they turn out to be more than just legends.

Still hunted, they set out for Kyona’s infamous mountains, assisted by Elnora, an unlikely rescuer with mysteries of her own. They hope to find answers, perhaps even the dragons of legend, whose magic might be the key to restoring Kyona’s ancient bloodline.

But the mountains hold more than just magic—they hold a secret that none of the friends are prepared for. And Calinnae’s response, as much as Jonan’s, will decide whether the kingdom stands or falls.
