What must be in all of time cannot be avoided. 

Dace Banks knows how to read the stars. She knows latitude and longitude, and she knows how to keep from getting lost. But when she encounters a basement lab hidden in a nunnery where she can cross worlds and time, everything shifts. Her abilities bring her into contact with Beatt, who is trying to enter her world from another. But who is he really, and can she trust that he will do no harm?

Faced with a decision that can alter the known reality, Dace must choose. Can she break free from the constraints of this world and become the being she is meant to be? Will she decide to cross into another state of being? Or will she instead explore the option of love with a mysterious business partner?

In this second of the series, connections are made from an era of divine feminine power to another century, where whispered voices carry secrets that unlock hidden truths.

“My entry into concentrated Catholicism, a forced alteration in my DNA, was to take place today.” So begins John’s parochial education in this enchanting, semi-autobiographical tale of a young boy ready to learn the mysteries of the Universe. 

First-grader John has an interesting perspective on life, much to the dismay of the nuns at the Catholic school he attends. To them, boys who ask too many questions are dangerous and poised to enter the ultimate fiery pit. As he struggles to figure out the lessons the nuns are trying to teach him, John does his best to puzzle out the religious teachings and how they apply to his place is in this world.

This tale focuses on John and the complexities of his family, who do what they need to do in order to scrape by in a blue-collar town. Dominating the landscape of his life is his Irish culture, which informs every part of what he knows about family and the world around him. 

At times touching and often very funny, readers will identify with a young boy’s confusion over the contradiction between what he is told is right and what his heart tells him is right.

This heartfelt story about  sisters, family and the tenuous connections we forge in life will stay  with you long after you turn the last page. 

Rose was a child when  the worst possible thing happened-her sister Lily drowned. While Rose  was supposed to be watching her. From that moment, Rose knew it was all  her fault. After all, that's what her mother told her. But life must go  on, no matter what, and Rose and her sister, Ivy, grow up in a family  without their little sister. In a family where alcoholism and arguing  defines their parents. In a family that personifies dysfunction. In a  family where anger forces their brother away. Was it any wonder that  Rose was so excited to get to college? Was it any wonder she sometimes  had a date with Mr. Merlot, the wine bottle she hid to help her get  through life's tougher moments?

At times whimsical, always  genuine, this story looks at the bonds of sisters and how family can  become our foundation even when we don't expect it.

Life as Mave knew it is over. Her mother, who acted as star counsel, has disappeared. A new race of beings has taken over her home. Everything around her changes as the people known as the Gigante tear apart the goddesses. Girls and women, formerly revered stand-ins for the Goddess and her creator—the cave-dwelling Ssha—either go underground with their beliefs or find a way to fit in with the new culture.

She finds unlikely allies along her journey, like Tear, the semi-divine being and Inna, a former holy prostitute kicked out of her communal home. But can she change what is happening and keep her spirituality a secret? Can she rescue the feminine spirit from the encroaching new order of the Sun God?

A whimsical story about facing  our deepest fears and greatest loves, and what we all must do to grow  into the life we were meant to experience.

Elizabeth's  secret began when she was five years old, a secret she held close her  entire life. As far as she knew, she was the only person who could see  the fairies living in her grandfather's garden. They play with her and  show her their world, and as she grows older, they guide her through the  important moments of her life. The fairies, and especially Olivia, were  her closest friends.

But where were they when  everything fell apart? Why didn't they save her grandfather when he  needed help, and why didn't they warn her about the things she had to  endure? Surely the fairies, who seemed to have a prescience about the  future, knew what Elizabeth would have to tolerate. 

After the  death of her grandfather, Elizabeth moves into his house to begin the  process of healing. But when her daughter begins to see and play with  the fairies, Elizabeth has a choice to make. Will she accept her  daughter's new friends or will she find a way to banish them from her  life forever?
