Bundled into a boxed set for the first time, the Alaia Chronicles: Legends subseries contains two tales: Swords and Scimitars (A Fantasy Short Story) and Sword and Lute (A Fantasy Romance Novelette). Immerse yourself in these stories of the immortal twin founders of verdant Teganne and desert Kad, two rival realms divided by magic—yet bound by blood, mistrust, and love. The celebrated Alaia Chronicles series continues with the fantasy romances THE SOURCE OF MAGIC and KISMET'S KISS. Cate Rowan's sensuous romances have won more than thirty awards.


*** Two immortal brothers. One enchanted sword. ***


Swords and Scimitars (A Fantasy Short Story):


The lives of well-born twins Kismet and Taso are easy and carefree—endless days of bedding women and fighting battles among the gods—until sorcery drives a wedge between them that slices deeper than flesh. Kismet has striven to be the ultimate warrior, but a mistake costs him his brother, his family, and his homeland.


He carves out a new life in the desert, rising to the command of a realm and an army, yet can't escape his past. When two women beg for his aid against tyranny, he must sacrifice his freedom and his long-scarred heart to help them.


Sword and Lute (A Fantasy Romance Novelette):


Slashed by a cursed sword, the god Taso feels his immortality gushing into the grass along with his lifeblood. He escapes death only by transforming into stone. Centuries later, the aspiring musician Amara stumbles across the stone and inadvertently morphs Taso back into his dying body. To save him, she must sacrifice her precious lute and her life-long dream . . . but in return, she might find her heart's desire.
