The WardenAn enigmatic contemporary fantasy series that straddles the line between the real world and the paranormal world. Book 8: Beasts & Burdens Nobody would mistake Nevia or Cori for Little Red Riding Hood, but when the big bad wolf threatens them, it will take a hunter to rescue them. However, there will be no need to cut open the wolf, because there will be nothing left when Daniel is through with them. Daniel's life has gone from complicated to catastrophic. His girl trouble has officially doubled-and now he's stuck babysitting Cori, a favor for his employers which couldn't come at a worse time. The Council of the Moon is suddenly very interested in Nevia and her radical, anti-matriarch views. When a werewolf coup erupts, Daniel finds himself caught squarely in the crossfire. Forced to choose a side, he takes action-but killing Frederique's men only fans the flames of council retaliation. With danger closing in, Daniel flees to his childhood home in Ireland, bringing Cori and Nevia with him. It's a desperate move to keep them safe-but it also means introducing Nevia to his mother, right in the middle of their already tense, undefined relationship. Scratch that-his girl trouble just tripled.
