About the book
The winter solstice. The darkest day, the longest night.
Every year the solstice heralds the return of the masquerade ball. Fae and human dance and drink and make merry, so long as they remain masked. But there's a darker side to this night. Should a guest lose their mask, their life is forfeit, cursed to dance forever for the entertainment of the masquerade's cold and cruel fae host.
Ever since he was a boy, Brice LeChoix's mother had warned him of the terrible fae. But it wasn't the fae who took his parents from him. Madness did that. Years later, now Lord of the crumbling LeChoix estate and buckled by debt, he has more important things to think about than fairytales.
Until the masquerade comes to town. Every year on the solstice it appears, and every year the townsfolk frolic with the fae. Some never return.
Brice warned his brother not to go. And when the masquerade vanishes like mist at dawn, it takes Charon with it.
Now Brice must return to the masquerade, the very place he vowed never to set foot in again. The fae know his desires, they know his weaknesses. Forbidden lust will lure Brice from his world, into theirs. To save his brother, he must survive the masquerade's beautiful lies and avoid the host's wicked ways.
But the fae have other ideas. One in particular has his eye on Brice... The trickster, Raoul, will stop at nothing to seduce Brice because he knows, more than anyone, that the masquerade is a trap from which no soul truly ever escapes.
The longest night is upon us. Can you hear their call? Take my hand, come with me, to the masquerade ball...

About the book
"What a pretty flower to keep locked in a big, rocky tower."
Nineteen years ago, I was plucked from the heart of a bloody massacre that spared nobody else.
Small. Fragile.
An enigma.
Now ward to a powerful High Master who knows too much and says too little, I lead a simple life, never straying from the confines of an imaginary line I've drawn around the castle grounds.
Stay within. Never leave.
Out there, the monsters lurk. Inside, I'm safe ... though at a cost far greater than the blood I drip into a goblet daily.
Toxic, unreciprocated love for a man who's utterly unavailable.
My savior. My protector.
My almost executioner.
I can't help but be enamored with the arcane man who holds the power to pull my roots from the ground.
When voracious beasts spill across the land and threaten to fray the fabric of my tailored existence, the petals of reality will peel back to reveal an ugly truth. But in a castle puddled with secrets, none are greater than the one I've kept from myself.
No tower is tall enough to protect me from the horror that tore my life to shreds.
To Bleed a Crystal Bloom is a dark Rapunzel reimagining full of immersive imagery and breathtaking angst. A unique new fantasy series perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout, guaranteed to grip you from the very first page.

Our take
A kidnapped child forces a grieving mother out of hiding and back toward the man who once broke her heart.

Choose your retailer
About the book
A mother will do anything to save her child, no matter the cost.
After her daughter is kidnapped, Emmeline Highclere—a thirty-four-year-old mother living in isolation with memories and grief her only companion—must do everything in her limited power and divine abilities to get the girl back.
Emmeline believes her daughter, Elora, is the Beloved—the conduit with goddess-granted divine abilities prophesied to bring peace to the Three Kingdoms. Because the last person thought to be the Beloved was brutally murdered by the enemy kingdom of Folterra, Emmeline has dedicated the last sixteen years to hiding her daughter and keeping her safe. When Elora is kidnapped by a Folterran prince, Emmeline must leave her place of hiding, resolving to do anything to rescue her daughter. But to have any chance against those who took the girl, Emmeline must call upon one of the most powerful conduits in the Three Kingdoms, the Crown Prince of Vesta—the man who broke her heart—and hope he helps her despite their estrangement.
With the weight of his father’s impending death hanging over his head, Crown Prince Rainier has begun to make moves to prove his dedication to assume the role of king. When he is visiting the estate that was once a second home to him, the woman who has long haunted his dreams and consumed his thoughts appears before him, asking for his help to find the child she had with another man. Now, he must decide: does he drop what he is doing to help Emmeline, or does he maintain his unwavering duty to the Crown?
Now, Emmeline and Rainier must work together to find the Beloved—to save the girl from the Folterrans and fulfill the prophecy of peace—while they both battle feelings of remorse, grief, and heartbreak, trying to ignore the heated desire and simmering attraction between them that never left.

Choose your retailer
About the book
A tormented dragon prince.
A captured elven assassin.
Duty demands they fight for their people but love has other plans.
Eroan, one of the last elven assassins, lives for one purpose: kill the dragon queen.
He would have succeeded if not for her last line of defense: Prince Lysander. Now, captured and forced into the queen’s bed, Eroan sees another opportunity. Why kill just the queen when he can kill them all? It would be simple, if not for the troubled and alluring dragon prince. A warrior, a killer, and something else… something Eroan finds himself inexplicably drawn to.
Trapped in a life he despises, Lysander knows his time is running out.
If the queen doesn’t kill him for his failures, her enemies will. There’s nothing left to live for, until an elf assassin almost kills him. A stubborn, prideful, fool of an elf who doesn’t know when to quit. An elf who sparks a violent, forbidden desire in Lysander. If Lysander can’t save himself, maybe he can save the elf and maybe, just maybe… one stubborn elf will be enough to bring down the queen before her reign brings death to them all.
This series is a dark lgbtq+ fantasy intended for mature readers. While Silk & Steel is a love story, it is not for everyone. Silk & Steel features a gay dragon shifter, a bisexual elf, and adult themes. There is triggering content that some readers may find distressing.

A Kingdom of Flame and Fury
Romantasy · Steampunk
Our take
Forbidden magic has kept Raven alive, but exposure could turn her crown into a battlefield. In A Kingdom of Flame and Fury, a powerful queen fights to hide what she is while Zeke, the man sent to claim her, slips past every defense she has built. This is fantasy romance with royal danger, hidden power, betrayal, desire, and a throne balanced on secrets.
Choose your retailer
About the book
A queen with forbidden magic.
A man sent to claim her.
A desire that could burn kingdoms.
Raven has ruled for fifteen years with one rule above all: never let anyone see what she truly is.
Because if they do, she won’t just lose her crown... she’ll start a war.
But secrets don’t stay buried.
When whispers of her power begin spreading across the realm, Raven’s carefully controlled world starts to crack.
And then he arrives.
Zeke is dangerous in every way—quiet, commanding, and far too skilled at unraveling her control. One touch turns into something reckless and addictive. And Raven, who has always chosen power over weakness, finds herself craving a man she knows nothing about.
What she doesn’t know?
He was sent for her.
To get close. To earn her trust. To deliver her to those who fear her.
But the closer he gets, the harder it becomes to remember his mission, and the easier it is to lose himself in her fire.
With kingdoms watching, enemies circling, and her power threatening to consume her, Raven must decide.
Will she protect her throne...
or risk everything for the one man who could destroy her?

Choose your retailer
About the book
We still worship the sleeping fae, though their magic only remains within a few of us.

But a potential escape lies in the form of her gruff yet achingly handsome guard, whose loyalty she is determined to break.
A huntsman with heightened senses, Basten “Wolf” Bowborn has more important things to do than transport his master’s new bride. With ancient creatures reawakening along the kingdom's border wall, he is torn between his duty and his desire to investigate—until a forbidden attraction becomes an unyielding obsession.
Welcome to Astagnon—a kingdom of cruel games and corrupted courts, where the only thing more dangerous than the secrets slumbering underground is falling for the one person you can’t have.

Court of Blood and Bindings
Romantasy · Dark Fantasy
Our take
Forbidden magic puts Emelin in the path of a fae assassin whose silence makes him no less dangerous.

Choose your retailer
About the book
He’s the queen’s deadliest weapon. She might be his only weakness.
Living in a quiet human village, Emelin knows better than to use forbidden magic – but one mistake lands her in the hands of the legendary fae assassin known as the Silent Death. He’s beautiful. Brutal. Voiceless. And instead of killing her, he offers her a dangerous bargain.
To survive, she must join him at the Crimson Court, the glittering heart of fae power and cruelty – to play the part of his lover in a realm where humans are nothing but prey.
But Creon is not the monster she expected. He’s worse.
He always seems to know what she’s thinking. He shields her like it’s instinct. And when his burning gaze lingers on her lips, she forgets what side she’s supposed to be on.
As rebellion stirs beneath the court’s jewelled surface, Emelin finds herself drawn into a game of lies and secrets where every alliance is a risk and every touch could be her ruin. Creon may need her magic to bring down the queen … but if she lets herself trust him, it won’t be just her life on the line.
It will be her heart.
Court of Blood and Bindings is the first book in the completed Fae Isles series, an epic enemies to lovers romantasy featuring a morally grey fae executioner, the rebellious human he kidnaps, and their sizzling slow burn romance. Perfect for fans of A Court of Thorns and Roses and The Serpent and the Wings of Night, the first book does contain spicy content intended for 18+ readers.

Faerie turns curiosity into captivity, and every promise carries a cost.
The Fae Queen’s Captive
LGBTQIA+ · Romantasy · Bisexual Romance · Lesbian Romance
Our take
Faerie turns curiosity into captivity, and every promise carries a cost. In The Fae Queen’s Captive, graduate student Janneth Carter is taken from a Scottish dig site into a sensual, dangerous realm ruled by the cruel Stag Queen. This is dark sapphic fantasy romance with abduction, bargaining, power imbalance, and a heroine trying to survive a world where desire is never simple.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Save some of your screams for the queen, there’s a good girl…
Janneth Carter has given up on magic these days. She’s done being curious, insatiable, dreamy; she just wants to finish her graduate degree and spend the rest of her life as a sensible archeologist. So the last thing she expects when she goes to her dig site on Halloween night is three mysterious strangers standing outside an ancient Scottish grave.
Okay, well the actual last thing she expects is for those strangers to kidnap her and drag her into fairyland.
Once in the vivid, carnal world of Faerie, Janneth is at the mercy of the coldly lovely and incredibly cruel Stag Queen. Desperate to get home to her own world, she offers the Queen a bargain: she’ll be a willing captive, the queen’s pet, so long as the Queen promises to keep her safe until Janneth leaves Faerie.
But fae promises are complicated things, and nothing in Faerie, even pleasure—even love—comes without a price…
The Fae Queen’s Captive is a dark sapphic standalone romance, set in the shared world of the Peculiar Tastes series. CWs can be found at the beginning of the book.
It's that time of year, friends. The moon is full and Samhain approaches. Your invitation to the Shadow Market is here. Three days of magic, drama, seduction, and maybe just a dash of human sacrifice!

About the book
An instant New York Times bestseller * A Parents’ Choice Silver Honor Winner
A skilled painter must stand up to the ancient power of the faerie courts—even as she falls in love with a faerie prince—in this “phenomenal” (RT Book Reviews) bestseller that’s “an ideal pick for fans of Holly Black, Maggie Stiefvater, and Laini Taylor” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
Isobel is an artistic prodigy with a dangerous set of clients: the sinister fair folk, immortal creatures who cannot bake bread or put a pen to paper without crumbling to dust. They crave human Craft with a terrible thirst, and Isobel’s paintings are highly prized. But when she receives her first royal patron—Rook, the autumn prince—she makes a terrible mistake. She paints mortal sorrow in his eyes—a weakness that could cost him his life.
Furious, Rook spirits her away to his kingdom to stand trial for her crime. But something is seriously wrong in his world, and they are attacked from every side. With Isobel and Rook depending on each other for survival, their alliance blossoms into trust, then love—and that love violates the fair folks’ ruthless laws.
Now both of their lives are forfeit, unless Isobel can use her skill as an artist to fight the fairy courts. Because secretly, her Craft represents a threat the fair folk have never faced in all the millennia of their unchanging lives: for the first time, her portraits have the power to make them feel.
