By the Embers Dies the Fire — Tymber Dalton

Growing up, Elain Lyall had always wished for a large family. Be careful what you wish for. Especially when you have a seriously unhinged brother-in-law like Brighton, who's perilously close to unraveling everything Elain's trying to hold together. Uncle and mortal enemy, Marston, turns out to be a priceless ally. Meanwhile, Elain's mates Ain, Brodey, and Cail, are enjoying fatherhood, even if they are putting a serious damper on Elain's Triad and Seer duties. Elain, Mai, and Lina are trying to figure out exactly how the cockatrice plan on detonating a nuclear bomb so they can stop it. The devil's in the details--and Ryan Ausar is as clueless as they are. One thing's certain, the evil they're facing is far older and more dangerous than any of them ever dreamed. If Elain's going to save lives, she's going to have to get a handle on her rapidly growing powers. Even if it means sacrificing someone for the greater good.
