Book 1
The Wooded King
Wandering through the thick wintry forest, Conall and Ethel thought they could go no further. Mindlessly, they walked through a gap in the trees, only to gaze upon a wide, icy stream. They were not alone. A man with wild eyes stared piercingly back at them. “Leave! you don’t belong here. Go!” the man shouted.
Before any of them had a chance to move or speak, the forest erupted with the sound of an explosive crash.
They had no way of knowing all their lives were colliding with a destiny that had been searching for them.
Book 2
Kingdom forgotten
A young man attempting to embark on a new life finds himself swept up in a daring rescue mission that puts multiple kingdoms at risk in Leslie Redden’s breathtaking new novel, Kingdom Forgotten.
This action-packed sequel to The Wooded King follows the young man Corbett as he starts life anew as a skilled woodworker. While gaining a reputation for his exquisite pieces, he soon befriends Demeerco, an unusual client who is much more than he seems.
I look forward to you joining in the adventure.
Book 3
One young woman’s dangerous journey begins as she fights to claim her kingdom in the epic third book of the Destiny Collection.
Kinsey has always felt awkward in life—right down to her freckled skin and eyes of different colors. When she discovers her adoptive parents have arranged her marriage to a classmate and bully, Kinsey runs away. She enlists the aid of Reen, the new boy at school, to help her escape. While hiding out with Reen in an unfamiliar place, Kinsey soon learns that Reen knows more about her true identity than she does. Complicating matters even more, Reen harbors a dark secret of his own.
As the unlikely pair journey toward danger, Kinsey must learn to trust herself and accept her destiny—one that will save an entire land and a loving family she’s never known. But with powerful forces at work against her, what will she lose for a chance to gain everything she’s ever wanted?
