The Shendri Series

With her eighteenth birthday fast approaching, crown princess Josselyn deLure knows it's her duty to choose a husband, but that doesn't mean she has to be happy about it. She'd much rather be practicing her swordplay with her best friend, Edmund, or teasing her straight-laced guard, Alex. Marriage isn't high on her list of priorities. But when a plot to overthrow the kingdom sends her fleeing for her life, marriage will be the least of her worries as the ancient, celestial magic dwelling beneath her marked skin emerges in the most startling of ways. Will she be strong enough to face the darkness inside and save her kingdom? Or will she crumple under the weight of self-doubt? Celestial beasts, swoony dances, and a fierce-as-hell warrior princess all mark the exciting first installment of E.P. Stavs's The Shendri Series. Perfect for fans of Melanie Cellier.

Lily Delaney is on a mission to save one of her sister Shendri. The only problem? She doesn't actually know who she is. Or where she is, for that matter. All she has to go on is a vision she saw in her dreams. That, and the help of her celestial phoenix, Suzaku. Will determination be enough to save the unknown Shendri from harm? Or will Lily find herself in more trouble than she can handle? Draven Grant gets things done. When the boss gives him a job to do, he does it, no questions asked. That is, until the boss tasks him with the unsavory job of stealing an innocent young woman away from her family. A job that becomes even more complicated when she decides to sail to another kingdom. Will he be able to maintain his professional indifference as they drift off to sea together? Or will the appeal of a certain, golden-haired passenger place him in an impossible situation? Treachery, love, and dragons await as Lily and Draven wind their way through this heart-pounding, second installment of E.P. Stavs' The Shendri Series.

"I will not abandon them to their fate. Bade needs to be stopped, and I'm the one who needs to do it." Sir Edmund Brandt has always considered himself to be a natural charmer. So, when Queen Josselyn ships him off to Northern Myr in hopes of recruiting the wolf Shendri, he assumes locating her will be the hardest part. Little does he know this wolf has teeth. Maya, a.k.a. "Shifter", is second-in-command of the Dirt Mercs, a position she takes quite seriously. The Mercs are her family, and she's determined to use her gifts to protect them. When an arrogant Eldorian Knight arrives at the Haven and starts nosing around, she's having none of it. No one messes with her family and gets away with it. Edmund isn't the only one looking to claim the wolf, however, and a dark shadow lies on the other side of the river, where Bade and his newfound dragon Shendri linger, waiting for Maya to join their fold. And Bade isn't one to take rejection lightly. Desperate times forge unlikely bonds as the need for vengeance sends Maya and Edmund into dangerous territory in this exciting third installment of E.P. Stavs's The Shendri Series. "I don't know how it's possible, but the Shendri become more magical with each installment. Maya is feisty and powerful and exactly the kick-ass woman I want my daughter to look up to. Her powers and the revelation of her backstory develop beautifully into the most gripping story of the series." ~ Amazon Reviewer

"Forget the words of evil men, and see yourself for who you truly are."   The battle for Lehi has reached its peak, and with the Shendri united for the first time, hope for beating Bade back is high. But when a new villain with tremendous power is added to the mix, the Shendri will need to be stronger than ever – a feat made almost impossible given the dragon Shendri's weakened state. Will Fia be able to overcome the nightmares of her past and become the hero that Lehi so desperately needs? Or will fighting the only person she's ever truly loved prove too difficult a task?   Strength, struggle, and self-sacrifice abound in the thrilling finale to E.P. Stavs's Shendri Series - "The Moonlit Warrior". CW: Sui-cidal Thoughts "Masterfully combining Stavs' signature blend of humor, action, and romance, THE MOONLIT WARRIOR sticks the landing." - Allison Martine, author of The Bourbon Books.
