- After too many failed romances, Emmy Towne, an elementary school teacher, final finds Darryl Cunningham, a successful chemical engineer, on an online dating site. Eight months later the two are married and settled nicely into a two-bedroom in Fredericksburg. But when it comes time to meet Emmy's family-who has a bad track record of scaring off boyfriends- Emmy starts to get cold feet. Plus, she has a sneaking suspicion that her mother, Beverly, a self promoting know-it-all advice columnist, and her father, Martin, a goofy podiatrist with photo albums of his 'favorite feet' will freak when they learn Darryl is black, This quirky 'dramedy' unfolds the day after Christmas, as Emmy and Darry arrive (intentionally) late to her parents house in the Maryland suburbs. In a few hours, the gang's all there- including Emmy's moody, leather-and-lace clad and suspiciously Asian-looking sister Grace, and her unpredictable, unhinged brother Rick, currently on the run from the law for stealing $100,000 worth of office supplies in an effort to build a new bulletproof plastic. The new couple just hopes to survive with their marriage and sanity intact.
- Thousands of years ago, the great continent of Elyrion was broken into five pieces by the vengeful god, Relios. The pieces became known as the Five Shards: the Heart, the Blade, the Eye, the Crown, and the Fist. Eadwyn Redway, king of the Heart and the Blade, seeks to re-unify the Five Shards under his rule. However, not all of his subjects share his ambition and rise up to oppose him. Before Eadwyn can conquer the remaining three Shards, he must first extinguish the uprising in his own land. A bloody war ensues, wreaking havoc throughout the Heart. Refugees head to the Ironleaf Forest, where legend holds that the Daughters of Tairol will offer protection to the widows and orphans of war. As Eadwyn's war presses on, the Daughters soon realize that they will be overrun by runaways. They must take action to stop Eadwyn. The Daughters kidnap Queen Malkyn and Prince Boric, in hopes that it will halt Eadwyn's march. The plan succeeds. But Eadwyn's hawkish advisers convince him to dispatch a ruthless order of assassins, the Ebon Spider, to infiltrate Ironleaf Forest and retrieve the queen and prince.
