Sheâs angry that I left. Iâm angry that I died.
Itâs the trouble with our two lives: we donât only have one past to work through, but two. Double the pain, twice the betrayal.
A million times the tragedy.
***The Moon is the story of Merlin and Nimue from the New Camelot trilogy. Itâs recommended that you read the trilogy first, as there are American King spoilers in The Moon.***
(Cards of Love is a massive multi-author project, a series of love letters to the mysterious and inspirational world of tarot cards. These can be read in any order, as the only thing the Cards of Love books share is their common inspiration from the world of tarot.)

Excerpt
A hiss in the darkness, then a flame, bright and dancing and unwelcome.
A match, I think, and then I think, why?
And then: where am I?
âYouâre awake,â says a voice like water. A voice I love. It still doesnât help me figure out where I am.
âAm I?â I ask. âAwake?â
Like I said earlier, I donât dream as such, but when I close my eyes, the memories and visions are there, dogging my sleep. And I think maybeâyes, there is also a memory like this. A memory of a dark-haired girl and a cave sparkling with light, the night air heavy with the ecstatic cries we fed it.
âYou are awake, Merlin.â The flame moves, calves another flame, and then is blown out. A candle now glows softly against the face of a woman standing at the end of the bed Iâm on.
Dark brows arch high over clear blue eyes and a long nose curves gracefully down the womanâs oval face, framed by a high forehead and cheekbones, and a beautiful, if narrow, jaw. Her lips are on the thin side, but perfectly sculpted, giving her an expressive, fascinating mouth. Coffee-dark hair hangs in glossy sheets around her face and down her back.
Sheâs haunting. Haunting even as a girl, but now even more so as a woman.
âNimue,â I say, and for the first time I notice how thirsty I am. I make to sit upâand realize my hands are tied to the bed.
Nimue sets the candle down on an end table, and it illuminates the space enough to show me that
Iâm indeed in a room and not in the damp mouth of a cave.It means itâs now and not then, which I suppose I should be grateful for.
After all, I died then.
A silver key glints from just below the smile of her clavicle, the bottom tip of it pointing to the sweet valley between her breasts I used to know so well. They are small and pertâher body still the lithe dancerâs body she had as a girlâand my
flesh responds to the sight of those little handfuls, the memory of them. The fantasy of her dusky nipples dragging along the underside of my aching cock is enough to have my body warming, and thatâs when I really become aware that Iâm not only tied to the bed, but Iâm also dressed in a pair of black boxer briefs and nothing else.
Well, nothing else except for the padded cuff around my ankle.
Nimue leans forward to untie my wrist, which leaves the front of her swishy dress gaping forward enough that I can see those nipples now, dark rose and erect.
Iâd tasted them frequently once upon a time.
Once upon a time, twice.
In another life, Iâd known the feel of her breasts against my lips and tongue better than Iâd known almost anything else.
With one of my wrists freed, Nimue straightens and nods at the other. âYou can untie yourself. Youâll find that the chain allows you more than enough length to do everything you need. Iâm obviously trusting you not to do anything self-destructive, but should the need arise, I can take away this particular freedom.â She says it cheerfully, almost as if the idea of taking away my freedom delights her.
The key on her chest glints as she steps back, and I understand that itâs the key that unlocks my cuffâthe same cuff that is connected to a ring in the floor by a length of slender chain.
Anger comes.
And with it shame.
And with that, fear.
I died once this way, and Iâd rather not do it again.
I lunge for my other wrist to untie it, needing to be free, needing to reach for Nimue to kiss her or kill herâbut by the time I untie myself, sheâs out the door with it shut and locked behind her.

âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸
I will say that I did not know that this story went with Sierra’s other books. So at first, I felt a little out of place. BUT it didn’t last long.
Merlin and Nimue really do have a love for the ages. This book will take you over hundreds of years of their love and reincarnations of them finding each other every time. It was not hard to give this story a 5-star rating.
Now I just have to go back and read the other stories.

I am so excited about this series of books by these authors. Clarissa came out with a bang of a story.I will be honest at first I was confused about what was going on. But it didn’t take long to figure out that this is a dark but humanely sweet story. This story is about what would you do for your child? Would you do anything to save the child you love with all your heart no matter what it did to you? And then would you do anything to save your family?I loved this novella. In what is a short amount of pages, Clarissa shows you what true love and family means. Loved it.
Â
Prologue
Lillian
Â
After
Â
Itâs finally time.
I grab one of the dull pencils from the tray and a piece of paper from the stack and place it down in front of me. Biting my lip, I stare wistfully at the sheet, wondering what I should write. If I should even write anything.
There are so many things I want to say, so much I have to explain, but none of the words in my head will suffice. Sheâll never understand. Sheâs too innocent to know the truth.
So I opt for something else instead. Something familiar and loving, so sheâll know how much I care.
âAre you gonna start or what?â the woman across the shoddy table says while glaring at me.
I look up from my paper and gaze blankly ahead. âAs soon as I know what to write.â
âYou donât get much time, yâknow,â she adds, shrugging. âSuit yourself.â
I nod a few times. Advice is best not taken for granted, so I pick up the pencil and rub my lips together.
Â
Â
Dear Daisy,
Â
Youâll probably never read this letter, but I want you to know that at least I tried. Iâve told your auntie Dana to hold onto the letters I send her until I get the chance to hand them to you myself. As much as I want to, I canât be with you right now. But I promise it wonât be long. Iâll be with you again soon. Before you even know it.
I know youâll be good. I know youâll do great out there in the world.
And you know ⌠I will find you again.
Â
Love,
Mommy
Â
Â
Smiling, I read over the words again before my letter and those of all the other women next to me are taken by the guard as she passes us.
Theyâll read the contents and decide whether itâs suitable to send.
This is how it always goes ⌠here in prison.
Thereâs no choice to make, no autonomy whatsoever. Nothing but sleep, eat, work, and wait.
Wait until your time is up.
Until you can see your baby again.
But I knew the consequence when I did what I did. That Iâd end up sacrificing precious time I couldâve spent with her. But it was the only choice I could make, and Iâd do it again in a heartbeat if I had to.
Itâs no oneâs fault. Not mine or his.
Circumstances brought me here, and I accept that wholeheartedly.
Love ⌠is what brought me here.
I made the ultimate sacrifice for my little girl.
For a man I couldnât stop loving even when that same love ripped her away from me.
For both ⌠Iâd willingly hang.

About Cards of Love: Knight of Wands
A chance for a sweet future, or a recipe for disaster?
Kaitlynn
My dream was to cook my way to fame and fortune, not run myself ragged keeping my late parentsâ quaint Savannah restaurant afloat. My sister is useless, Iâm chronically short-staffed, and even Gertie, my antiquated oven, hates me.
Then in charges Oliver, like a Golden Knight. Heâs hunky and charming and makes others feel at ease. Heâs earnest and kind, optimistic and extroverted. My best friend. My sisterâs ex. Picking up the slack like he never left all those years ago. Making my body shiver with the lightest touch, the slightest smile. It would be so easy to let him be my knight in shining armor. But I canât let him, even though he makes Gertie purr like a kitten.
Oliver
I practically grew up waiting tables alongside KitKat. Sheâs a brilliant chef, but itâs clear sheâs no manager. Iâve noticed other changes in her since her letters stopped coming to me in Iraq. Thereâs fire burning in her green eyesâand pain.
The kiss was meant to comfort. But it explodes into searing passion so white-hot, not even the tallest, iciest sweet tea can quench it. I shouldnât try. She doesnât want help, especially not mine. But a kiss like that is the beginning of a promise. A promise that wonât stop until I help her find her dream.

âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸
I adored this story. Two people that have been pulled apart for years but have kept each other up with letters. So when Oliver shows back up in town after retiring from the military and finds out Kaitlynn has taken over her families diner, he finds himself back in her life.
Kaitlynn is forced to come back and take over the family business. Her sister is a bi*ch and is no help. Everything is falling apart and there is no money, she is really just tired of it. But when Oliver walks in and offers to help her, she really doesn’t know if it is worth taking it or walking away.
I enjoyed this short story. There is a lot of emotions and conflict but the love shines through in this book. Another great book added to the Cards series.

Synopsis
I loved him first.
Jake was my best friend in college-my very straight best friend, until one night he was more. He may have run after what happened between us, but I never forgot him. When fate puts us in the same place, five years later, he has a fiance by his side. Carina is beautiful, driven, and draws my attention almost as much as he still does. A game of truth or dare leads to a wild night and a relationship that has our feelings growing into something bigger than any of us intended. But what happens when our feelings deepen? Can I handle being with two people? If it means I can have him, Iâll love them both.

âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸
Holy crap. I had to take a couple days to figure out what I was going to say in my review for this story. I really could not put this story down. The whole thing blew me away, but the ending, the ending tore me up and then stitched me back together.
I refuse to give anything away. But know that you have to read this book. It does have MM and MFM in it, so if that is not your thing don’t read it. But if you can get past it the story is wonderful.

They hired me to keep her safe. I never planned to give her a baby.
My job was to do what I do best.
Watch my target. Protect them at all costs. Kill anyone who gets in my way.
My weapon of choice? Anything with a sharp edge.
But the second I see my newest client, I know I’m in trouble.
The pain in her eyes, her sinful body, those sky-high, take-me-hard, spiked heels I can’t ignore.
In one night, we share more than I thought possible.
Our secrets.
Our torments.
Her bed.
I never expected she’d give me so much more.
Until I find out she’s having my baby.
Then out of nowhere, the threat of danger becomes real.
But I’m ready.
I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe, even if it means laying down my own life.
Warning. This dark and dirty romance is steamy, dangerous, and swoon-worthy. If you like slightly over the top romance stories with a dominant alpha male, this is for you! Standalone romance with no cliffhanger and a naughty happily ever after to give you all the feels.

I wanted to give this story so many more stars, to be honest. But I couldn’t. This story left more questions than answers, for the story that Bella gave it was too short, and I felt like I was missing something.
I know one of the authors took her card and added it to her already growing lists of stories and she just took her already developed characters and went with it, but she warned us and to be honest I didn’t feel like I was missing anything. But with this story I did. Maybe, later on, we will get more from Blade and Sydney which would be great. But for now, it is an interesting story for sure.

BLADE
âI should go,â she whispers in a tone thatâs as hesitant as the tentative expression on her face as she sits there on the side of the bed.
I want to see her shed all of that bravado for a minute.
Or for a night.
Iâd like nothing more than to hold onto her and pull her body onto my lap, pressing her round, firm ass into my stiff member.
And to tell her to relax.
To let it all go.
To just be.
Or to be⌠with me.
As in on her bed, against the nearest wall, or any flat surface as she so desires.
âNo. You shouldnât,â I say firmly, and flash a hint of a one sided-smile. âThis is your room. Iâm the one who should get out of your hair so you can relax. Unless you want me to stay. We can keep talking⌠or I can stay and we can justâŚnot do any talking at all. Up to you.â
She shrugs one shoulder and looks at nothing in particular, her head still facing forward as though looking my way would give too much away. âI donât know⌠itâs been a while since I opened up to anyone about myself. Or maybe I never have. I supposed we can keep talking.â She throws me a glance, and I see a bit of playfulness flash across her face. âWait, what did you mean by we can just not talk?â
“Thereâs a whole lot going on⌠between you and me. Tell me you donât sense it.â
âSense what exactly?â she pries shyly.
âThis. Us. Chemistry. Attraction. Fire. Whatever you want to call it. Tell me you donât feel that, Sydney,â I demand in a low, raspy whisper.
âAll right. Thereâs⌠something,â she admits after a long pause.
I slowly lower our locked hands, letting the back of her hand rest on my knee. âGood.â
âSo⌠now what?â she asks, and I hold my tongue, avoiding an answer, waiting for more from her.
Thatâs when I notice the very subtle way her body turns toward me. Only her leg nearest to me moves, parting slightly, showing more of her bare inner thighs. And I start to wonder if sheâs wearing anything under this blouse. The hem of it rests at her upper thighs, not revealing much, except for the hint of a triangular line where her thighs touch and meet her mound. My mouth starts to water as I imagine what she must taste like. Honey, maybe. Or fruity. Definitely sweet and sinful.
âYouâre staring,â she adds, shifting a little in her spot. âIâm really not great at⌠all of this.â
âTell me what you want,â I say in a low, growling demand and lick my lips. Her little movement gave away something critical. I can smell her need. Her scent. And it wasnât there before now. I know because every one of my senses is highly attuned, trained to detect the slightest of differences around me. Sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. What it tells me is that not only is she not wearing any panties, but that the simple connection of our hands, our proximity, our sitting in her bed, our earlier conversation, it all has made her wet with arousal.
Itâs unmistakable.
And Iâm the cause of it.
