     The Kingmaker. Seize the Crown. Born to Rule DESTINED TO DIE. BORN TO RULE. “One of the best premises I have come across in the fantasy world.” YA Books Central “If you’re a fan of YA lit with courageous young ladies and mysteries, read this book today!” The Book Nerd Girl “I am sixteen years old and I will die on the morning of my seventeenth birthday. As tradition dictates, I will be sacrificed and my life’s blood will determine which one of my two brothers will be King. My blood will kill one and crown one. My name is Everleigh and I am the Kingmaker.” Terrified of her fate but resigned to her death, Everleigh has less than a week to live. The legend of the Kingmaker goes back millions of years and Everleigh would never dare to question her deadly inheritance. Kingmakers are special; their magic chooses the rightful King of the Realm and they all die on their seventeenth birthday. Except this one. Saved from the inevitable, Everleigh learns that she is the Kingmaker who will live, the Kingmaker who will rule, the Kingmaker who will be Queen. But not everyone agrees with an age-old prophecy that says that a girl will rule the Realm and soon Everleigh is locked in a deadly battle for the throne. Can she escape her blood-thirsty enemies and live long enough to be crowned Queen? Seize the Crown “If I am not the Kingmaker, who am I? If I am not Queen, who am I?” Believing her first love is dead, devastated by her brother’s actions, and cruelly denied of the crown she believes is her own, Everleigh faces the fight of her life in the second book of The Kingmaker Trilogy. Millards’s deadly ambition sees him wear the crown that should rightfully be on her head. Everleigh is determined to avenge her loved ones and seize the crown and if a fight is what it takes to rule, she will fight or die trying, in this fantastic follow up to The Kingmaker. Seize the Crown follows Everleigh on her quest for revenge and the throne, as she battles against her brother and his murderous tyranny. Born to Rule Maddeningly, the crown still eludes Everleigh as we begin the breath-taking conclusion to The Kingmaker Trilogy. In a hugely welcome turn of events, her first love is back at her side, the crown is almost on her head and she is ready to rule. But with Millard on the run and attacks being made ‘in the name of the King’, Everleigh must put a stop to her brother before her Kingdom is in ruins and if, as Queen, she must slay her own sibling, she will gladly do it. The Kingmaker Trilogy is a magical young adult fantasy, packed with fantastical twists, heart-stopping action and fabulously feisty females. If you enjoy reading Sarah J. Maas, Victoria Aveyard and Melissa Meyer then you’ll love The Kingmaker Trilogy. Pick up your copy today!

Michael needs to be able to offer a safe haven to Rynn and the students, but he can't bring himself to ignore the problems of those around him, either. There are always more things to do than time to do them in and, of course, a man with a gun can pose a serious problem, even to a wizard.

     This is the dark but humourous tale of Sarah Pemberton, who is not a happy woman. A down to earth, inventive soul who despises her stuck up pompous husband Neil, who believes he is much more intelligent and important than she is. When he refuses her a divorce and emotionally blackmails her into staying with him by threatening to take custody of their daughter, she's decides to make life a little more entertaining for herself, by subtly torturing him at every available opportunity. Creative and adaptable by nature, with a wicked sense of humour, she comes up with more and more ways to ridicule him, without him ever knowing she has a hand in it. ...."During 1993-1994 amongst other things, I cooked him a meat pie with pedigree chum; Stole his car more times than I can count; put chilli powder in his underpants, sent a stripagram to his work (a fat one), and subscribed him to a gay porn mag! (Our paperboy avoided him like the plague after that.)"..... Finding accomplices in the form of her Aunt May, who lives in a crumbling old former hotel which was damaged during WWII, and May's two lodgers, a shy young hippy named Darren, along with his brother Matthew a former life model, they try to get rid of her husband by either 'Plan A', which consists of 'frame him for a crime so that he gets incarcerated', or 'Plan B' drive him to a nervous breakdown. Both plans are designed to discredit Neil in case of a custody battle for their daughter. There is only one little prerequisite for every little torturous idea though, and that is, IT HAS TO MAKE THEM LAUGH! Unbeknown to Sarah at first, she isn't the only one with a vendetta against her husband, his entire workforce hate his guts and exploit any opportunity to make him look bad. When plans A & B go disastrously wrong, Sarah and co set their sights on a new target, her in-laws. Interwoven throughout the story is the tale of Aunt May, the lynch pin of her little make shift family, who harbours secrets of her own that go back to the night the bomb fell on the east wing of the hotel. This is not a tale of a submissive woman suffering at the hands of abuse; this is the tale of a strong courageous woman having one last laugh at other people's expense. Contains very occasional strong language, and scenes that should not be repeated at home. Volume One of 'The Cuckoo' series
