Taming Flame
Flaminius’s days of bouncing between beds are snatched away the instant he sets eyes on his perfect genetic match, Aurelia. Suddenly, the tedious task of claiming his rightful place on the Arkhnuetian throne doesn’t seem as daunting with his whip-smart wife by his side. But it’s not like Aurelia had a choice; Flaminius is the only soul she can reproduce with, and she’s not about to play a role in her people’s extinction. After a swift wedding and passionate honeymoon, an assassination attempt plummets the lovers back into the reality of ruling. Fueled by their indomitable matched hormones and fierce loyalty to each other, together they must evade his mother’s Machiavellian schemes, hunt down the mysterious cause of death plaguing the match making Keys, and protect their people from a violent supremacist cult, the Oradagra. But it turns out the greatest threat to their existence is something neither of them could have seen coming, and it’s a race against time to save the entire Arkhnuetian planet.
Sacred Flames
""Sacred Flames"" explores the profound role of fire in shaping human culture, religion, and mythology across the globe. Examining fire as more than just a tool, the book reveals its significance as a symbol of divinity, transformation, and even destruction. One intriguing insight is the deification of fire in various cultures, where flames are seen as a manifestation of the divine, embodying power and spiritual energy. Another focuses on fire rituals, such as cremation ceremonies and solstice celebrations, which highlight fire's role in purification and rebirth. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach, weaving together religious studies, anthropology, and archaeology to provide a comprehensive understanding. It begins by introducing fire's basic properties and its early impact on human development, then delves into how different cultures conceptualize fire in their myths and religious practices. The chapters progress thematically, investigating fire deities, rituals, and myths of world conflagration, culminating in a discussion of fire's enduring legacy in contemporary culture. ""Sacred Flames"" offers a valuable lens through which to understand our shared heritage and the complex relationship between humanity and this elemental force.
