Troubled Waters
Zoe Ardelay receives astonishing and unwelcome news: she has been
chosen to become the king's fifth wife. Forced to go to the royal city,
she manages to slip away and hide on the shores of the mighty river.
It's there that Zoe realizes she is a coru prime ruled by the elemental sign of water. She must return to the palace, not as an unwilling bride for the king, but a woman with power in her own right. But as Zoe unlocks more of the mysteries of her blood—and the secrets of the royal family—she must decide how to use her great power to rise above the deceptions and intrigue of the royal court. -Amazon Description

Royal Airs
Josetta is a princess of one of the Five Families. But she is far from
the throne, so she is free to spend her days working in the poorest
sections of the city.
Rafe Adova lives the life of a career gambler in those slums. He has no real ambition—until the night he helps a girl named Corene, who looks like she’s stumbled into the wrong bar.
Josetta is fascinated by the man who has helped her sister. Rafe is unlike anyone she’s encountered—someone seemingly devoid of elemental blessings.
Rafe is also drawn to Josetta, but when he is assaulted by foreign mercenaries and they discover the reason behind the attack, Rafe and Josetta realize that the truth could endanger not only their newfound love, but also their very lives… -Amazon Description

Like the Novel of Twelve Houses series each book focuses on a different character in the same connected world. It's almost like visits from old friends when a previous point of view character shows up in the story. The main character in Troubled Waters surprised me at times as I got to know the character. It was an enjoyable element of the story among many. I am excited to see who shows up from Troubled Waters and Royal Airs when Jeweled Fire is released on November 3, 2015.
