She also knows what will happen in future and that she can't change it - but she realizes this time how she can cope with this so things change the next time around; maybe it will be even better than now.
A hope for a new life, for life as such.

A New Chance by MichaFire
This book is about such a chance.
This is a story about a man that has worked in Malawi, Africa some time ago. He visits this country now with his new girlfriend, but has not told her the reason for leaving then or returning now.
I have not been to this country, but I try to be as authentic as I can. It's still a fictional story though. Any similarities to persons, either living or dead, is coincidental.

Forgotten!? by MichaFire
"Grandma, why do you keep calling me "My little Sunshine"?"
"Because you ARE my little sun shining on me, Ann! Let me tell you a little story. Maybe, you will then understand it better."
And Grandmother started:
Once upon a time, very long ago, in a non-physical place, a group of beings lived all happily together. Like one big family.
One day Great Being, that was like a parent to them, had a new task to be done.
A young being, with female energy, eagerly applied for this task and was sent along with the addition to wait outside their group on returning until it would be called back in.
She had to wait such a long time, she thought, she had been forgotten by all of them.
In the end she realised that this was not so - it was she that had forgotten.
"Grandma, thank you for this story. Now, I understand why you call me your little sun.And you are MY sun!"

KIRDAI: Spark & Dagger by Kay Murky
Book Description: For an introverted scholar like Dai, there could be only one thing worse than having a rare soul-bond with an equally rare black dragon. That would be to find yourself playing a part in an ancient prophesy that speaks of adventure and great deeds. When he discovers this bond, he will find that there is no difference between the two situations at all.
Growing up in the background at Amery castle, and known as 'The Bastard' or 'The Ghost of Amery', Dai has no memory of the time before his arrival ten years ago in the company of a dying man - a man they say was his father. But in his dreams his father wears another face - not the one of the man in the portrait hanging in the Great Hall. Dai wants to know what he is, but how can he if he does not even know who he is? All he knows is that he is not the grandson of the Duke of Amery - no matter what anyone else believes. Then there are the nightmares that haunt him, and the niggling feeling that there is more missing in his life than just his memory.
As happened ten years before, the nations of The Alliance have to mobilise against the threat of an Essian invasion. Travelling as the Duke's secretary cum personal guard, Dai's life in the shadows seems at an end. He finds himself privy to War Council meetings, and makes friends with princes and mages... and one young journeywoman mage in particular. Events keep pushing him to the foreground, putting him in situations that challenge his intelligence and his reserve.
Black Kirosh knows who he is, but until his missing soul bonded partner is found, he will not be able to find out what he is. Is he a warrior, a mage, a healer, a scholar, or perhaps all of the above? Prankster Kirosh is not satisfied with waiting for Destiny and Fate to bring his partner back. The extroverted young dragon manages to win himself a place in the elite Reconnaissance and Rescue wing of the Onlashian military, and a promise from his Commander to help him in his search for his missing soul partner.

[FREE]

Now he finds himself part of a group of soldiers and mages on loan to the King of Essa, taking part in an attempted invasion of the northern countries of Ranmor. His habit of always questioning orders lands him in the lead of a mixed group of Imperial and Essian soldiers ordered into enemy territory to ambush the approaching Allied forces. This he immediately recognises as a suicide mission.
The yellow dragon, Daninackan, is second in command of the Onlashian military healers travelling with the Allied forces to confront the invaders. Others write off his unease at the approaching confrontation as pre-battle nerves, but Dani cannot rid himself of the feeling that something is very wrong - which is how he ends up pulling the only surviving Imperial soldier off a burning hill.
But what must he do with the man now?
Marteen is not sure if he is the dragon's prisoner, or supper, and can only wait to find out his fate.

DIGNITY by Eva Caye
Book one in the series: To Be Sinclair
Book Description: What will the greatest ruling family in the history of the galaxy be like?
When the studious, determined microengineer Lady Felicia Sorensen is asked to partner Emperor Victor Sinclair at a ball, little does she realize that her world is about to be overturned. Sick of the socialites who can only see his status, the Emperor falls madly in love with her. But she is so single-minded in her dedication to her scientific career that she treads, more than once, on his most painful memories and psychological issues!
Nevertheless, he is so determined to have her that he entices her with all the resources at his command, from sexual stimulation and outrageously expensive gowns to promising her that she can ‘write her own job description’. Is it love, or is it manipulation? Felicia does not want to be merely the source of ova for the Imperial Heir, nor does she like being the center of attention. And an assassination attempt proves that the publicity of being an Imperial fiancée means her mere presence generates continuous danger, even from rival scientists on other planets!
Will Felicia choose her Imperial lover and tough out the extreme political and social pressures with the supreme ruler of the Empire, or will she choose her goals and help thousands, millions, possibly billions of people through her intellectual achievements?
This science fiction romance is the first of the seven-part To Be Sinclair series. The saga begins with DIGNITY and its companion volume MAJESTY, which describe the romance and first years of marriage of the Emperor and Empress of the Sinclair Demesnes. A few scenes describe sexually explicit behavior.

Book Review by Amy at thegeekgirlproject.com
Book Review by Sand in My Shoes Reviews
"I’m not sure at what point I simply hunkered down at the recognition of a kindred spirit, one who understands the value of a story told with respect, in depth and with exquisite attention to detail, and allowed myself to be swept away into a galaxy and time far, far away, but as current as today, as compelling as yesterday.
Told with the lush prose of a Jane Austen, as well as with that author’s incisive, detailed and quite pointed barbs at social strata and the constraints on actors thrust onto stages not of their own choosing, this is science fiction masquerading as historical fiction on the grandest scale. It also had me reminiscing about the opulence of the Russian literary tradition—certainly the staging reeks of Imperialist Russia and the machinations of members of the Imperial House waging a form of class warfare for political and social advantage.

FEALTY by Eva Caye
Book three in the series: To Be Sinclair
As the Heir Second of a multi-planetary empire, raised with proper Imperial paranoia, unable to trust anyone outside of his family, Prince Phillip Sinclair has no one he can truly call a friend, much less a lady to trust with his love. A medical emergency finds him meeting Alex Guinard, a no-nonsense, intellectually astute and emotionally troubled medic with many of the same problems and interests, including the love of a good fight and a pure dedication to the Service.
Phillip and Alex become responsible for creating a sociological phenomenon that inspires the Royalty of the Sinclair Demesnes to hone their defensive skills and unite in a society of Fight Brothers. Although Alex is Low Royal, as he becomes more involved in the Imperial Family through his friendship with Phillip and romance with Sophia, he starts a game which results in Phillip finding the lady of his dreams. Talk about the best friend a man could have, by God! Even the Fight Brothers get in on the action!
The return of Crown Prince Zhaiden from his diplomatic tour heralds an era of conflict that leads to his divorce. Beyond grateful for Phillip’s support, Zhaiden immerses himself in the Fight Club, for he had few opportunities for training, and none for associating with men of rank, for two years. Their honor weaves bonds of loyalty and trust as they support each other through romances, deaths, assassination attempts, and political minefields to represent a new society that takes the galaxy by storm.
This futuristic romance is the third book of the seven-part To Be Sinclair series. The saga continues with FEALTY and its companion volume ROYALTY, which detail the romances and political struggles of the Prince Second and Crown Prince of the Sinclair Demesnes. A few scenes describe sexually explicit behavior.
