When the fate of the world rests on your shoulders, how do you choose between what you ought to do and the only thing you really want?
This collection contains all four books from the Choices and Consequences series.
Strand of Faith : Book 1
In a post-apocalyptic future, a girl and a monk, both with extraordinary mental powers, have compelling reasons not to fall in love. But their choices will have consequences for the rest of the world. Brother Prospero has found comfort and fulfilment in the monastery. Then something forces him to reconsider his whole vocation. How can it possibly be right to leave a life of worship and service for human desire?
Leonie has found sanctuary and safety at the Abbey. When she meets Prospero everything spirals out of her control. Everyone she's ever loved has died. She can't do that to him. But how can she walk away from the first place she's truly belonged?
Abbot Gabriel is faced with an impossible choice. He can do nothing and watch the world descend into war. Or he can manipulate events and ensure peace – at the cost of two lives that he is responsible for. Is he strong enough to sacrifice those he loves?
Thread of Hope : Book 2
Leonie may have run away but Prospero will find her. Only when he does find her, he ought to tell her who he really is. Dare he risk it? But if he doesn't tell her, someone else may... Marriage to Prospero is what Leonie wants most and the one thing she knows she can't have. If he found out what she was really like he'd despise her and she couldn't bear that. Better to leave now than live a lie – but it's harder than she expected. If only… Gabriel is discovering the secrets inherent in Leonie, secrets that will tear the world apart. The secrets he is keeping are tearing him apart. How can sacrificing those he loves achieve peace when everything he discovers risks the death of millions?
Weave of Love : Book 3
Leonie chose to sacrifice everything to save other people. Now those around her have to face the consequences – and those consequences are not what they expected.
Prospero must deal with his own guilt. Whatever he chooses to do, someone he loves will be hurt. Is he now strong enough to make the choice he couldn't make before?
Gabriel discovers that the past is never what it seems – and nor is the present. How can he use what he now knows to bring together those who have been enemies for as long as anyone can remember? If he fails in this, everything he's had to do so far will be in vain.
Cloth of Grace : Book 4
Leonie finally knows who she is. But now she needs to decide who she is going to be. Her choice will affect not just those she knows, but tens, hundreds of thousands, millions of people that she doesn't. How can she do what she must and still protect Prospero?
Prospero has to find the strength to face the things that all but destroyed him in the past. But every way he turns, some aspect of his past lies waiting to pounce – even during his happiest moments.
Gabriel has managed to negotiate peace, at least in theory. Then disaster strikes right in the middle of his own sanctuary. Can he still protect those he loves, or has he been harbouring a villain the whole time?
