The omens gather, while Camelot fractures… Saraid is an orphan, thanks to the Saxons, but has found a place as lady companion to Adrivete, the daughter of King Drust of Deira. She wants nothing more than to stay where she is and live a quiet, uneventful life. Her peace is shattered when Owain, the son of the dead King of Rheged, rides into Deira and demands they hand over Lamorak, the murderer of his aunt, Morguase of Lothian…before sliding from his horse in exhaustion. Then a message is received from Arthur, the High King of Britain, ordering Adrivete to travel to Camelot with Owain. Adrivete insists Saraid travel with her. Saraid is out of her element, uncomfortable, hungry and tired, and dismayed by the forced intimacies of the road. When Owain unexpectedly helps her cope with the rigors of travel, Saraid learns he is not at all the gruff, infamous son of Rheged that rumour paints him to be. Neither of them wants to go to Camelot. Together, they might survive the politics, conspiracies and the storm that gathers over the city of miracles… This novel is part of the historical fantasy romance series, Once and Future Hearts, set in Britain during the time of King Arthur. 1.0 Born of No Man 2.0 Dragon Kin 3.0 Pendragon Rises 4.0 War Duke of Britain 5.0 High King of Britain 6.0 Battle of Mount Badon 7.0 Abduction of Guenivere 8.0 Downfall of Cornwall 8.1 Touched by Maen Llia 9.0 Vengeance of Arthur 10.0 Grace of Lancelot 11.0 The Grail and Glory 12.0 Camlann Readers have described Tracy Cooper-Posey as “a superb story teller” and her historical fantasy romances as “written art”. __ Praise for The Once and Future Hearts series Imagine how good is the author in her craft that she is capable of surprising us her readers even though the Arthurian cycle is one of the most rewritten ones in western literature. What a great storyteller! I never thought that anyone could tell an Arthurian tale as well as Mary Stewart, but Tracy Cooper Posey has succeeded. I am just in awe of her ability to meld historical detail with legends and turn out a mesmerizing story. It takes me back to the magic I felt when reading Mary Stewart's stories of Merlin. Tracy Cooper-Posey has written another winner! As a long time, self proclaimed Arthurian Legend junkie I couldn't wait to dive into Tracy Cooper Posey's new series. Tracy once again proves to be a master story teller as she weaves the delicate threads of this beloved legend into her own. I also love the fact that her female characters are definitely not boring, whiny or TSTL. Tracy Cooper Posey is brilliant at weaving stories with individuals that are completely believable in their thoughts and dialogue. Ms Tracy has an amazing way of telling a tale. It’s magical :-) Her characters come to life with vibrancy, you can hear the noises of swords clashing and, the swell of various conversations in the great hall This book is fast paced and I had trouble putting it down! Tracy again gets the reader into the times of King Arthur. It feels like you are there. Definitely recommend it to anyone who loves the King Arthur legend, a wonderfully intricate story or just a great romance! I hope this series never ends.
She is invisible to everyone but the blind man… Anwen is the least favored companion to Lady Igraine, the Duchess of Cornwall. No man will marry her, for she is old and plain. Instead, she teaches Igraine’s children to read. Steffan of Durnovaria was once a celebrated warrior in the Duke of Cornwall’s army, a friend to Prince Uther, the High King’s brother, and destined for greatness, until a Saxon war hammer stole his sight and destroyed his life. To deflect Steffan’s anger from the warriors around him, Igraine directs him to help Anwen teach her daughters. The assignment brings him no happiness and terrifies Anwen, who has never spoken to a man directly in her life. When the new High King, Uther, meets Igraine for the first time and becomes obsessed with her, Anwen and Steffan are drawn into a web of lies and deceit that could destroy Britain’s fragile peace. This novel is part of the historical fantasy romance series, Once and Future Hearts, set in Britain during the time of King Arthur. 1.0 Born of No Man 2.0 Dragon Kin 3.0 Pendragon Rises 4.0 War Duke of Britain 5.0 High King of Britain 6.0 Battle of Mount Badon 7.0 Abduction of Guenivere 8.0 Downfall of Cornwall 9.0 Vengeance of Arthur 10.0 Grace of Lancelot 11.0 The Grail and Glory 12.0 Camlann Readers have described Tracy Cooper-Posey as “a superb story teller” and her historical fantasy romances as “written art”.

This series is in the right century, told in the right way, and based on sound research, plus, it's just plain old great storytelling!

A simply fantastic series that is getting better and better with each new book. The more I read of this series, the more I want. I love this book and I love Tracy Cooper-Posey! I am a long time fan of Tracy Cooper-Posey and love her writing. Pendragon Rises is an incredible story of two "invisible" people (Anwen and Stefan) who find unexpected love. Their story is woven into the amazing tapestry of the Arthurian Legend. I am in love with this series. It’s hard not to become emotionally invested in any Cooper-Posey character, but I found that especially true with Stefan and Anwen. A mighty warrior struck blind and the overlooked mouse in the corner. My heart ached for them. I absolutely love this book! We're pulled into this fantastic world by Tracy Cooper-Posey's vivid storytelling and deft handling of the personalities created within it. I can't say enough good things about Pendragon Rises or the series it's a part of! Pendragon Rises is the best novel yet of this wonderful series, The Once and Future Hearts. Once I started this one, I couldn’t put it down. Tracy puts together a wonderful story that parallels the Arthurian legends and history of that time while keeping the characters relatable and realistic. A definite read! I really liked Anwen’s happily ever after. Superb writing, I say. The romance between Steffan and Anwen is absolutely perfect! If you're afraid to give Historical romances a try due to authors not adhering to how you feel the past WAS, trust me, you won't be disappointed!

A new, dark and ruthless enemy emerges to vex the time travelers… Alannah’s family has always lurched from crisis to crisis, every time their secret life as time travelers and vampires clashes with the normal, human world. But Alannah has managed to stay unnoticed, living her uneventful and very human life to the hilt. Trouble doesn’t visit her for she has no extraordinary time traveling talents the way her siblings do. She is utterly average. Kit McDonald thinks otherwise. He has been drawn to Alannah from the moment he met her, but the woman seems to barely recognize him. Given her unusual and highly interesting family, he can understand that. He’s just a park warden, with a checkered history and a remote and disinterested family of his own. But when Alannah is confronted by a deadly, ruthless new enemy, it is Kit who steps in to help. As neither a time traveler, nor a vampire, his help is unique and oddly effective and the two find themselves on the run in the Canadian wilderness, with only each other for company….

As a time jumper, he will never be “normal”, but he lives his life as humanly as possible while milking time for everything he can. Both are content. Sort of.

A Time Travel Vampire Romance Novel ___ Praise for Kiss Across Worlds: In a nutshell, there is a LOT of action, as well as some head spinning discussion of time travel across different timelines. Ms. Cooper-Posey always makes you think while reading her stories. This is #7 in the series, but there is no “just another episode” to be found here. Wow, again Wow. I swear this author must be a time traveler because this story is filled with such awesome details. I don't think I even got up for water! And as always with Cooper Posey's characters they feel so real that its easy to get pulled in to their world for a while. The writing is superb and the story is really interesting. This is one series that I'm going to have to read the rest of. I loved Remi with his hints of vulnerability along side his bad persona. Time traveling, human trafficking and a desperate race against evil. I can never get bored with this series. Everything is so interesting and mind blowing. I've been following Tracy Cooper-Posey for a while now, and she never disappoints. Damn, she can write! To start with, I love history, I'm an academic historian, and her books are really well documented. What a great book, I just loved it. It's like being on a roller coaster, the action never stops and the time travel details are awesome. The characters are wonderfully developed and believable. The suspense is very real and I lost a lot of sleep reading this book lol The chemistry between the three main characters is off the charts and I can't say enough about the steamy sex screens...phew!

A Time Travel Vampire Romance Novelette ___ Praise for Time and Remembrance: The detail makes you wonder if Ms. Cooper-Posey isn’t actually a time traveler. A lovely little book in a great series. Though this is a novella, Cooper-Posey still packs in a whale of a story. You can't go wrong with Cooper-Posey - she is an amazing storyteller who develops her characters carefully and yet lovingly. Every story she tells is an engrossing one - and she makes you wish time-travel was indeed a real thing. If you love time travel and haven’t read this series you should start today. Tracy makes you believe in time travel (and vampires) and brings the past to life like no other. As always Tracy astounds me with how she makes the history in her story come to life. My students often muse how much easier it would be to learn about history if they could just go back to that time period for a little while. Cooper-Posey does just that with this installment of this series. It's a beautifully written novella. This book brought me to tears. The true measure of a well written story are the emotions an author is able to wring from a reader. Loaded with familiar characters, a powerful plot pulls you into this story set at the end of World War I and just won't let you go. It's a short read made all the more moving for its brevity. I loved it. Wow, just wow. I cried, I laughed and fell in love all over again with these characters. This book made me cry when I read it - not something I normally do with this series. It was so heartfelt, I couldn't help it.
