The story of veterans coming home from wars has not been concisely recorded to highlight the major problems they've faced. Having gone to war and survived, they have expectations, hopes, and dreams of a better life. In Homeward Bound, Taylor chronicles their struggles to realize all of those expectations by tracing the experiences of American veterans from the Revolutionary War through the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. In doing so, he connects pieces of a longer, larger story that has traditionally been told only in individual parts. Homeward Bound delves into personal memoirs, dusty diaries, and teary interviews to link veterans' hopes for the future with the ways in which their dreams were fulfilled—or died. It shows how war changed these men and women, how they lived with their experiences despite the odds, and how alone they can be. Accompanying photographs relate still other stories—those written on our veterans' gallant faces.

As a younger son, Bram has no future or inheritance, so marriage to the laird’s daughter would grant him land and family—but even a marriage of convenience may not be worth the battle scars from such a relentless opponent. But when the blame for a rival laird’s death falls against the Liannons, Kaireen and Bram must find a way to lay aside their differences as an unforeseen darkness sends death snapping at their heels. The Garnet Dagger: As a vampire, Brock has one chance to break the curse that compels him to feed and kill: he must find a witch, pierce her heart, and draw her blood for his cure. Celeste must find a way to elude an ancient, powerful warlock who wants to lay claim to her dormant powers. If he succeeds in devouring her magic, she and the world will die. The two fall in love, never realizing her demise is his cure. Can love triumph over such high stakes? Son of Dragons: Elvin warrior Mirhana scours the land to silence the undead. Her heart has turned as cold as the sword she wields, until Prince Landon seeks her aid. Never has he met a woman like Mirhana, who haunts his dreams as he battles to remain true to his promise to an unseen betrothed.
