Show more Show less Book 1 in the Severine Seriesby Jaden Sinclair The year is 9045 and the Nations control almost everything in the universe. They have brought order to many planets and cultivated others, but behind closed doors they’ve raided and pillaged the planet’s resources for their own gain. She is one of the many children who have been ripped from their home for their selfish cause. Trained at a young age, she was developed into just what the Nations hoped to accomplish. A perfect weapon. But when control is lost and the weapon goes rogue, the Nations learn firsthand just what they’ve created and just what their weapon will do for her freedom and for a family she can never forget. He is sent to find her. Another trained and burned by the Nations, Byron Suthland is hired to find the weapon, only he doesn’t want to find her for them. He wants to find her for himself and bring back a woman, not a weapon. Knowing she can kill him instantly means nothing, but caring about her means everything. Severine!
Content Warning: Intended for 18+ Audience, may contain explicit details or scenes Excerpt
“And where are you going to go?”
“Home.”
“Do you even know where home is?”
“No, but you do and you’re going to be kind enough to give me the information.”
“It isn’t that easy.” She lost her temper and walked right up to him, bringing the gun she had tucked behind her right out. He didn’t fight her when she put her hand up to his throat, shoving him back against the wall, her gun now pressed right between his eyes.
“What are you going to do, Severine?” Byron asked.
“Shoot me?”
“If I have to.”
“Then what kind of information will you get?” They had a kind of standoff. Both refusing to back down or look away. However, Byron made a move, one she wasn’t expecting. His hand came up slowly, his body didn’t move. With the back of his hand, knuckles only, he touched the side of her face. Severine moved back.
“What are you doing?” She frowned at him.
“Something I think hasn’t been done to you in a very long time.”
“Don’t do that.” His hand went back to her ear and into her hair.
“But I want to do this.” When his face began to lower down to hers and both of his hands moved to her waist, Severine changed the position of the gun. She now pressed it up under his chin.
“I can shoot you and keep you alive.” His face was mere inches from her own, lips so close she could feel his breath upon her own.
“And I think this will be well worth getting shot.” They touched. His lips touched her own gently, softly. She had never been kissed before. The only type of touching she’d been subjected to had always resulted in pain of some kind. Yet this wasn’t painful, but it confused her none the less. He didn’t do much of anything else either. In fact, if she wasn’t mistaken, she thought he was trying to show her how to kiss.
Why she let this happen, she couldn’t answer. But Severine did give in mostly due to her curiosity. She wanted to know what this felt like. What it was like to be held by another and not made to suffer for it. However, before anything more could go on, the gun she held under his chin was taken from her hand and the light kissing simply stopped. He pulled back enough to look her once more in the eye, one arm still around her.
Keeping eye contact with her, Byron uncocked the gun, let it drop with his finger still on the trigger so it would flip butt first back to her.
“I’m not going to hurt you, Severine. Ever. And I will help you find what you need, but not with a gun at my head. Next time, just say please.” She took the gun from his hand, he let her go, and moved around her toward the steps, taking them two at a time up, leaving her right where she stood.

A Treasured Christmas Book #24
For the last book I thought I'd go traditional and to make it from my favorite paper engineer.
The Night Before Christmas by Robert Sabuda
This is a treasure with the white mice, detailed pop ups, and delightful story line.
It is been a joy to share some of my favorite books, although I'll admit I didn't know I had so many for Christmas. No, I didn't share them all, there's about half as many again, both pop up and picture. I have a problem collecting books, specifically by favorite authors and illustrators, but what a problem to have!
Yes, by the time this last book has been shared, I have bought the one that started it all ... The Night Before Christmas by Holly Hobbie!
Have a wonderful Christmas and dream happy thoughts about BOOKS!

A Treasured Christmas Book #23
Having enjoyed the first pop up [sort of] by this paper engineer, I jumped at his next two holiday books. They're hard to share so I'm only showing one, but they are a wealth of information in the small side pamphlets.

A Treasured Christmas Book #22
Taking the paper-cut idea a step further is the next book and one I gave to a few different hostesses as a thank you for the party kind of gift.
The First Noel: A Christmas Carousel by Jan Pienkowski
Each page is a beautiful image with a few words, but it's a marvelous book when tied open and hanging from the loop attached to the top spine.

A Treasured Christmas Book #21
Silhouette art is an old style and it's gorgeous, done today and it's stunning!
Recently a cut paper Christmas book was released and I bought it and a few copies for friends with kids. It wasn't quite pop up, although there is one at the end, but the cut paper, silhouette images and color blocking was a pure joy to read.
I haven't said this so directly during this sharing of my collection, but I am now ... if you can find this book, check it OUT!

A Treasured Christmas Book #20
This series has to be the most recent additions to my collection and I still give the first one as a gift to newborns. They are the cutest pigs who are polar opposites which makes for interesting and entertaining stories that are relevant!
I'll Be Home for Christmas by Holly Hobbie
One little pig goes traveling and the other stays home, decorating and preparing for Christmas, will the other make it back in time to celebrate the day? I so love these piggies!
