How Love Came to Professor Guildea: Professor Guildea is an extremely unsentimental man-he doesn't need nor want anyone's affection. He has his work, and that is enough. Until one evening when he sees a figure in the park, and crosses the street to investigate. No one is there, and yet Guildea is convinced that someone follows him back into his house... a strange presence with a curious and very irritating attraction to him.
A Tribute of Souls: Alistair Ralston, the young Laird of Carlounie, has a feeble soul matched to his pinched and pallid body. But his desires are Gargantuan, as is his hate for those more fortunate. And so one day he takes a book of magical incantations into the woods and makes a pact with the grey traveller: three souls to Satan in exchange for a renewed body. He is brought back to Carlounie in a fever. When he recovers, he is a new man-powerful, driven. It is time to use this power...
The Lost Faith: Olivia has known most of her life that she has the power to heal. It all comes down to faith. After she heals young Fernol West-victim of a head injury-her fame spreads to England, where she and Fernol are hosted by the noted eccentric, Lord Sandring. When Olivia meets Sir Hector and is asked to cure his skeptical sister of her blinding headaches, her real test of faith begins.
