They came for my twin and left me behind because women hold no power in the magi world. They're about to find out how wrong they are... Jesse Storme. Bartender. Rock-climber. And the girl left behind. One minute, Wyatt and I are scaling our favorite rock peak and enjoying a moment of escape from our crappy lives. The next, we're attacked and my brother is gone.

When a back-alley brawl leaves me marked with a bizarre Celtic crest on my back, I become a beacon for all things whacked and weird. My dad is obviously freaked when he sees the tat, but he won't discuss it. So, I do what any stubborn redheaded lass would - I ignore all advice and fly to the Emerald Isle to get answers. And yeah...you know that saying about hindsight being 20/20? True story.

Rejoignez Fiona dans une autre aventure pleine d'action à travers le temps, les mythes et les traditions dans le septième tome des Chroniques d'une druidesse urbaine. Tous les jours, je fais de mon mieux : je cherche à ne pas me disputer avec mon petit ami et à améliorer ma relation avec une belle-famille hostile, mais aussi à résoudre les conflits avec des êtres surnaturels en colère.

Fiona poursuit son voyage pour devenir la druidesse qu'elle est destinée à être dans le sixième tome des Chroniques d'une druidesse urbaine. Dans une lutte incessante pour sauver la vie et l'amour, j'affronte un monde de dragons, de gnomes, de sorcières et de trolls. Porter la marque des Fianna me met souvent à l'épreuve, mais j'arrive à tenir le coup avec l'aide de ma famille et de mes amis incroyables : mythiques, magiques et mortels. Je ferais tout mon possible et affronterais n'importe qui afin que ça cesse.

Assumer mon rôle de représentante des druides au sein de la Guilde du Bord du Lac est à la fois un honneur et une malédiction. J'ai la possibilité d'apporter des changements importants dans un système défectueux, mais je suis également dans la ligne de mire de plusieurs ennemis puissants. J'ai fait face à des démons, à des sorciers et à des imposteurs, mais lorsque mes deux mondes entrent en collision et que la police s'en mêle, j'ai peur non seulement pour moi mais aussi pour les hommes de ma famille. Fiona continue à combattre dans le cinquième tome des Chroniques d'une druidesse urbaine.

When Bakkali insisted I take a month off to rest and regroup before joining The Guild of the Laurentians, I had my doubts. Being away from police work has been tough, so when an end of summer celebration takes a disastrous turn, I'm eager to unravel the mystery. One thing is for certain—something is in the water. With multiple fatalities, injuries, and missing persons, my siblings and I set out to uncover what happened at Clock Tower Beach.

It is the Time of the Colliding Realms—the Keening—the Culling. Everything that happened over the past eighteen months has led to this moment. The good and the bad. The triumphs and the tragedies. Now my family by blood, by choice, and by circumstance face the battle to balance our world's alignment.

The world is about to tilt on its axis. Good versus Evil. Light versus Dark. There's a balance to the world's alignment and every thousand years the Earth Realm, the Fae Realm, and the Spirit Realm collide, igniting a period of rebalancing. And while the empowered sects battle for a stronger foothold and fight to find ways to strengthen their forces, the humans go on living blissfully unaware. Which is good. Blissful ignorance is exactly where we want them to be . . . Well, some of us, anyway. As the volatility rises, the aggressive races protest.

In life, you start off and get what you get—that's fate. Then you grab the reins and steer your path—that's free will. Fate versus free will . . . it's mind bendy. But what if you want to change your stars? When a gathering of reapers descends on Toronto, and a mass-death is pending, Clan Cumhaill fights through kidnappings, betrayal, and death to discover what will cause the disaster. Is it a vampire war, the theft of a powerful artifact, or an empowered icon gone rogue? There's no way to know until the danger unfolds.

Since freeing our elemental powers, my siblings and I have been attacked, threatened, heckled, and told our entire life has been a massive magical cover-up. We are orphans of the decimated elemental kingdoms of the Fae Realm. The learning curve of our new lives has been butt-kickingly steep and all the things I thought I knew for sure . . . I didn't. Seelie warriors, amorous trolls, hellhounds, and a hunky fire guy with too many secrets. How's a girl to find her footing?

Life's pleasures used to be so simple: a fast ride on my motorcycle, a backyard barbeque with my siblings, and taking down criminals to safeguard Montreal's citizens. Sadly, those days ended the moment my fiery side emerged. I'm a fire elemental. Mind blown. The deadly Poreskoro family wants to feed on my fae essence. Rude. And if they succeed, they'll gain the strength to rebuild their army of evil. Terrifying. Demons, drug lords, and deception I can handle, but when a dark storm of danger falls over my family, things have gone too far.

Meine Einstellung zum Leben ist nicht kompliziert – jeder Tag, der vergeht, an dem niemand versucht, mich oder jemanden, den ich liebe, zu töten, wird in die Spalte "guter Tag" eingetragen. Einfach, oder? In letzter Zeit sind gute Tage schwer zu finden. Seit ich vor drei Monaten die Warnung meines Vaters völlig ignoriert habe und nach Irland geflogen bin, um unser supergeheimes Erbe anzunehmen, sehe ich die Welt in einem anderen Licht – einem mythischen und magischen Licht. Ich bin eine Druidin.

Seit ich als Thronfolgerin gehandelt werde, wurde ich niedergestochen, entführt, auf die schwarze Liste gesetzt, gefoltert, ins Visier genommen und beschuldigt, die Ursache für so ziemlich jedes magische Unglück zu sein, das in den Straßen Torontos passiert ist. Für manche bin ich ein Ärgernis, für andere eine Kuriosität und wieder andere ein Problem, das beseitigt werden muss. Was soll's, wer hasst, muss hassen. Aber wenn eine dunkle und gefährliche Pilzwolke über meiner Familie und meinen Freunden aufzieht, bleibt mir nichts anderes übrig, als dem Ruf zu folgen und zu kämpfen.

I knew three things about my life before adoption: I was a baby rescued from a blazing house fire, I was found in the arms of a dead man, and no one ever came to claim me. No one. Not ever. Now, as a Montreal detective, I'm dedicated to hunting truths for a living. Unheard voices. Cold cases. Unsolved mysteries. Unearthing secrets hidden in the shadows is my jam. Until the fae veil falls . . . When the world learns magic is real, everything changes. Montreal begins seething with prana energy, dormant genes activate, and seemingly normal humans experience magical awakenings.

Wenn du dich mit diesem Mädchen anlegst, bekommst du einen Arschtritt. Das Leben hat mir einen Schlag versetzt... Ich habe eine Familie, von der ich nichts wusste, ein magisches Erbe, das seinen Anspruch erhebt und ein Geheimnis, das ich anscheinend lösen muss. Es gibt drei Dinge, die ich im Leben am meisten liebe... meine wilde und verrückte irische Familie, Redbreast Whiskey im Shenanigans und das Leben in Toronto. Da ich mit fünf älteren Brüdern aufgewachsen bin, kann ich mich aus den meisten Situationen herauskämpfen, entweder mit meinem verruchten Sinn für Humor oder mit meinen Fäusten.

In the past two years, I leveled up as a kick-ass urban druid and became the leader of the Fianna Warriors my ancestor Fionn mac Cumhaill needed me to be. The thing is—four months ago everything changed. The veil between realms came down. With dormant genes waking, the dominant races jockeying for their place in the hierarchy, and the world around us pulsing out of control with power, my position as the Fae Liaison of Toronto has gotten off to a chaotic start.

We all make mistakes, but for most of us we die and they're forgotten—not so if you're immortal. For gods and immortals, grudges live forever. One moment of poor judgment, a lack of understanding, or simply being oblivious to what's going on around you can elevate you to the top of someone's to-do list. Be careful who you piss off. Amid murder, ex-lovers, jewel heists, and much, much wine, the Cumhaill fam jam stays the course of fighting the good fight and standing behind our friends. Ni neart go cur le cheile . . . There is strength in unity.

Life is a balance—at least that's what I'm told by people smarter than me. Try as I might to spend quality time with Sloan, family, friends, and companion animals, my magnet of mayhem often has other ideas. Adulting is hard. So when I move an adolescent dragon into my backyard, why don't I anticipate the craziness that will ensue? Maybe Sloan's right and I am ridiculous. I like to think I'm an optimist. Either way, it takes a group effort to figure out the mess we find ourselves in and what to do about it.

When Garnet brings Team Trouble in to investigate a string of discarded bodies, none of us likes where the evidence points. My Spidey-sense says something isn't right. In the human realm, the evidence doesn't lie. In the empowered realm . . . nothing is as it seems.

The focus of my life as an urban druid is to stand as a guardian of nature. The focus of my life as Fiona Cumhaill to stand as a guardian of my family. Seriously. Don't screw with my family. It's a no-brainer, drop everything, and take up the fight topic for me—If you need me, I will come. So, when darkness conspires to overtake the light and people I love are sucked into the wake of evil, the Toronto crew grabs the go-bags and answers the call.
