Don Piper

    1 januari 1950

    Na een fatale auto-ongeluk keerde Don Piper negentig minuten later op wonderbaarlijke wijze terug naar het leven, bewerende de hemel te hebben bezocht. Deze buitengewone ervaring vormde de basis van zijn wijd en zijd inspirerende werk. Pipers schrijven biedt een diepe boodschap van hoop, suggererend dat, net zoals hij zijn beproeving overleefde, ook anderen hun eigen levensomstandigheden kunnen overwinnen en hun geloof kunnen verdiepen door dergelijke ervaringen.

    • I love you. Nox's tear-filled words echoed across the sand, stitching them together as they escaped the royal city, both a declaration and a promise... Nox and Amaris. Two young women connected in their youth, torn apart by forces neither of them could control, fighting tooth and nail to find each other again. But their reunion is sliced apart by a death sentence as Amaris is taken by the queen's dragon, leaving her injured and at the queen's mercy. With few options, Nox forms a partnership with the reevers--the continent's league of peacekeeping assassins--on a mission to find Amaris and achieve stability between kingdoms. Newfound relationships are navigated as wounds begin to heal. Pushed to grow through impossible obstacles, stretching their magical powers to the limit, and overcoming harrowing odds to establish lasting peace, Nox and Amaris seek to create a world that might reunite them. With more at stake than ever, one question remains: Is it fate, love, or something else entirely that binds these two women together? In the enthralling follow-up to The Night and Its Moon, bestselling author Piper CJ redefines love and trust through an authentic fantastical portrayal of queer experiences, found family, and the gray areas that define us all.

    • "Farleigh is just an orphanage. At least, that's what the church would have the people believe, but beautiful orphans Nox and fae-touched Amaris know better. They are commodities for sale, available for purchase by the highest bidder. So when the madame of a notorious brothel in a far-off city offers a king's ransom to purchase Amaris, Nox ends up taking her place -- while Amaris is drawn away to the mountains, home of mysterious assassins. Even as they take up new lives and identities, Nox and Amaris never forget one thing: they will stop at nothing to reunite. But the threat of war looms overhead, and the two are inevitably swept into a conflict between human and fae, magic and mundane. With strange new alliances, untested powers, and a bond that neither time nor distance could possibly break, the fate of the realms lies in the hands of two orphans -- and the love they hold for each other."-- Provided by publisher

      The deities you call aren't always the ones who answer.Marlow needs to believe she's crazy. The alternative would mean embracing the gift-or curse-shared by her mother and grandmother: she can see angels and demons. She would have to admit she's been seeing one for years, the alluring, starlit man she calls Caliban, who understands her, soothes her, loves her like no one else. And with her history of religious trauma, she's far too afraid to do that-at least, until a fae from the Nordic pantheon strolls into her life and informs her that her so-called hallucinations are actually a passionate affair with the Prince of Hell.A prince who has now gone missing.But finding Caliban will mean accepting her new reality and seeing the world for what it truly is. The veil is far thinner than she or any human realizes, and the mortal realm is up for grabs. Before she knows it, Marlow is deeply entangled in a centuries-old war, stumbling straight into a battleground between vicious and powerful pantheons. And who will come out on top...may just depend on her and the man she never dared to believe in.

      Ein kurzer Moment kann alles verändern: Ein geliebter Mensch stirbt, man verliert seine Arbeitsstelle oder man wird plötzlich schwerkrank. Auch Don Piper hat in seinem Leben einen solchen Moment erlebt. Er wurde bei einem schweren Autounfall so schwer verletzt, dass er für 90 Minuten klinisch tot war. In diesen Minuten durfte er die Herrlichkeit des Himmel erleben. Als er wieder ins Leben zurückkehrte, war alles anders. Bis heute leidet Don Piper unter den Folgen dieses Unfalls, und er hätte allen Grund, sich nach seinem alten Leben zurückzusehnen. Doch er hat gelernt, seine „neue Normalität“, wie er seine heutige Lebenssituation beschreibt, anzunehmen. Er sagt: „Ich kann über diese neue Normalität schreiben, weil ich mit absoluter Gewissheit weiß, dass es einen Himmel gibt.“ Don Piper möchte auch Sie ermutigen, Ihre Blickrichtung zu ändern. Schauen Sie nicht mehr auf das, was hinter Ihnen liegt, sondern vielmehr auf das, was vor Ihnen liegt. Machen Sie das Beste aus dem Hier und Jetzt.
