Heaven Help Her. Bethany Church is an angel sent to Earth to keep dark forces at bay. Falling in love was never part of her mission, but the bond between Beth and her mortal boyfriend, Xavier Woods, is undeniably strong. But even Xavier’s love, and the care of her archangel siblings, Gabriel and Ivy, can’t keep Beth from being tricked into a motorcycle ride that ends up in Hell. There, the demon Jake Thorn bargains for Beth’s release back to Earth. But what he asks of her will destroy her, and quite possibly, her loved ones, as well.
The story that Alexandra Adornetto built in her New York Times-bestselling debut, Halo, comes alive in action-packed and unexpected ways, as angels battle demons, and the power of love is put to the test.
For months part-angel Clara Gardner trained to face the raging forest fire from her visions and rescue the alluring and mysterious Christian Prescott from the blaze. But nothing could prepare her for the fateful decisions she would be forced to make that day, or the startling revelation that her purpose — the task she was put on earth to accomplish — is not as straightforward as she thought. Now, torn between her increasingly complicated feelings for Christian and her love for her boyfriend, Tucker, Clara struggles to make sense of what she was supposed to do the day of the fire. And, as she is drawn further into the world of part angels and the growing conflict between White Wings and Black Wings, Clara learns of the terrifying new reality that she must face: Someone close to her will die in a matter of months. With her future uncertain, the only thing Clara knows for sure is that the fire was just the beginning.
Three angels — Gabriel, the warrior; Ivy, the healer; and Bethany, the youngest and most human — are sent by Heaven to bring good to a world falling under the influence of darkness. They must work hard to conceal their luminous glow, superhuman powers, and, most dangerous of all, their wings, all the while avoiding all human attachments.
Then Bethany meets Xavier Woods, and neither of them is able to resist the attraction between them. Gabriel and Ivy do everything in their power to intervene, but the bond between Xavier and Bethany seems too strong.
The angel’s mission is urgent, and dark forces are threatening. Will love ruin Bethany or save her?

The Hugo Award Winner–2003
Hominids examines two unique species of people. We are one of those species; the other is the Neanderthals of a parallel world where they became the dominant intelligence. The Neanderthal civilization has reached heights of culture and science comparable to our own, but with radically different history, society and philosophy.
Ponter Boddit, a Neanderthal physicist, accidentally pierces the barrier between worlds and is transferred to our universe. Almost immediately recognized as a Neanderthal, but only much later as a scientist, he is quarantined and studied, alone and bewildered, a stranger in a strange land. But Ponter is also befriended—by a doctor and a physicist who share his questing intelligence, and especially by Canadian geneticist Mary Vaughan, a woman with whom he develops a special rapport.
Ponter’s partner, Adikor Huld, finds himself with a messy lab, a missing body, suspicious people all around and an explosive murder trial. How can he possibly prove his innocence when he has no idea what actually happened to Ponter?

Я не знаю, кем являюсь. Но все говорят, что я – полукровка, дитя смертной и представителя драконьей расы, а таких презирают. Успешно поступив на первый курс Академии боевой магии, стала изгоем и предметом для насмешек у элитных магов. Возможно, под жестокими шуточками они ловко скрывают первобытный страх, ведь я – довольно сильное существо, способное поставить на колени половину мира.
Простите за ошибки. ))))ЧЕРНОВИК. НЕ ВЫЧИТАН.
Я та, которая вернулась в страну драконов, потому что уже не мыслю жизни без любви, без неба, без полётов. В этом мире мне не будет легко. Здесь нет накатанных дорог в будущее, я должна проложить их сама в противостоянии, в битвах и в любви

Пропали невесты? Очнулось от тысячелетней спячки древнее Зло, некогда почти уничтожившее мир? И Проклятый город готов принять гостей?
Пускай.

Шипела, словно кошка, пытаясь оттолкнуть мужчину от себя.
— Уберите руки, лорд!
— Я не могу! — прошептал он, придвигаясь чуть ближе и очерчивая мои губы своим большим пальцем. — Ты сводишь меня с ума! Я медленно лишаюсь рассудка…
— Мне жаль, но ответить взаимностью не могу, — отвернула лицо в сторону, пытаясь не выдать своего жуткого волнения, ведь этот мужчина для меня был целым миром. — Идите к своей невесте! Она с радостью вам поможет и ко мне больше не прикасайтесь! Никогда!
