Sins of Our Ancestors

When life makes you into the hero you never wanted to be. . . Now that the cure has been found and distributed, Ruby's ready to move ahead with the life she always wanted: small town, cute house, quiet job, with her boyfriend Sam by her side, of course. All she needs to do is foist the responsibility of ruling World Peace Now off onto her half-brother, Adam. Surely he'll rise to the task of caring for the people with whom he grew up. Sometimes that cape really starts to chafe. But Ruby's brother doesn't want to rule any more than she does, and the people of World Peace Now aren't too keen on being fobbed off. Ruby could just walk away, and a year ago, she would have. But now that she's grown an iron backbone, how can she leave the problems of the world to run and hide? When dangers begin to multiply, and Sam's clearly miserable dealing with them all, Ruby realizes she has a bigger decision to make. How many times is she really obligated to save the world. . .and what price is she willing to pay in order to do it?

For fans of the Sins of Our Ancestors Series, comes a novella about beloved side characters, Rhonda and Adam. Some love stories demand to be TOLD. Adam grew up without much family until he met Ruby. Once he found his sister, he never deviated from his support. Thick and thin, dark and light, he stayed true. But now that the world is saved, he's lacking in purpose. Rhonda's always known that her task, as an older sister, was to protect her siblings. She trained hard so she'd be ready to do whatever it took to keep them safe. But now that the worst is past, now that the major threats have all been eliminated, Rhonda's frustrated. What's she supposed to do now? After the world has been saved. . . Sometimes we survive the worst, only to realize we don't know how to live during peace. Can these two find their place in the world now that they've rounded the bend?
