Three new stories . . .
"Counting Crows" by Mercedes Lackey
In Lady Gwynhefar's dark, lonely court, her only ally was noble Sir Elloran, a warrior willing to fight for her honor. But would her powerful spell capture his heart -- or tumble the kingdom into chaos?
(Strong heroine overcomes culturally sanctioned violence against women.)

"Drusilla's Dream" by USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Lee
Every night Drusilla Morgan dreamed of courageous and handsome Miles Kennedy. Their quest: to battle evil and find true love. Yet when the sun rose, would Drusilla's fantasy man become a reality.
(An oddly charming tale of two people struggling to communicate.)

"Moonglow" by Nebula Award-winning author Catherine Asaro
In a world where kings married for magic, Iris was required to wed the prince--despite the spell that kept him deaf, mute and blind. Healing her bridegroom would take a power greater than any she'd ever known.
(A different slant on the uses of magic and how personal committment to each other can overcome overwhelming odds.)
