The Key Trilogy by Nora Roberts

Although this is another story that isn’t complete unless all three books are read, the three stories do stand by themselves. But I would still read them in order and together. Malory Price, manager of the local gallery, Dana Steele, librarian, and Zoe McCourt, beautician agree to help Rowena and Pitt unlock the souls of the Daughters of Glass. They each have one lunar month to find their respective key, if the 1st one succeeds then the 2nd one will begin at the new moon. If the 2nd one succeeds the 3rd will begin at the next new moon. If any fail, then the quest stops there. They will receive $25,000 now, $1 million when they succeed. If they fail, they will lose one year of their life. They can help each other and they have Flynn, Dana’s Brother, Jordan Hawke, and Bradley Vane to assist as well.

Key of Light - Malory is the first up. Her search seems to be in her passion for art and the paintings that involve the 3 Daughters of Glass. It also brings the six participants together as a group.

Key of Knowledge - Dana is the second to search for her key. Her search draws her into books and Jordan back to the castle on the mountain top that he had wrote about and written Dana in as a character.

Key of Valor - Zoe, single mother, seeing the opposition that Kane, the god who imprisoned the Daughters of Glass, had given the previous two in their search, takes extra precautions to safeguard her son and her heart. She follows the path of her life choices to what has brought her to the Valley.
