Five hundred years of battling evil.

Five hundred years of a legacy that cannot and will not be denied.

This is a double volume set that contains both Shattered Images and A Past Undone. The Connelly women are witches whose ancestors were granted the gift of great magic, but that magic came with a cost. In exchange for their mystical powers, the Connelly witches were entrusted with protecting humanity from the demons and evil who walk among them. It was then that war between the Connelly witches and the demons of the world began. Five hundred years later their legacy is strong but full of danger, as the demons they swore to vanquish threaten their existence.

Shattered Images will take you into the darkness that only evil can conjure as Rachel digs deep down in her soul to find the magic she has buried there, unwanted and unused.

About BeautysPunishment

Once a wild brat that couldn’t be tamed, I have been in a 24/7 DD, D/s relationship since July 14, 2011. We had a collaring ceremony lead by Mistress Joanne and attended by friends. I’m only submissive to Jolynn. Every day I run our business, and anything else so Jolynn can write her books in peace and quiet when she has time. I am the housewife, secretary, publicist, pet parent, and doer of good deeds, squirrel, and fueled by caffeine. Redbull gives me wings to fly through the internets. It is my drink of choice, and it's what's for breakfast. I tend to put my foot in mouth, and will say things without thinking; so if I offend anyone, it's not intentional. I am blunt and to the point, and don't have an inner monologue. According to Jolynn, I don’t have an off button. She keeps trying to find it on the top of my head. I have an off the wall sense of humor; more often than not I am impulsive, a little loud, and sometimes obnoxious. But that's just me.
