The Unbearable Melt: Book Three in The Laughter of the Sun series

by Andie Holman

Allies are elusive, and gods hold grudges in an icy land. The magical crew splits up to find help in their mission to defeat the rogue Fae princes, set on taking over the Earth. The mermaids and gargoyle head to the Arctic with the wolf shifter, whereas the rest of the crew fumbles with stubborn Mages. THERE ARE TWO ROMANCES. 1. M/M. They are ex-lovers, both Mages, and are forced to work together. The tension is high and tight. 2. M/F. He's a wolf shifter returning to his estranged home in the Arctic. She comes into her powers while there, and he'll do anything to keep her safe. "Touch her and I'll bite you." There are different dimensions (Earth, Fae, and heavenly) and the story is told through multiple characters. As with all my books, the pace is fast and the magic is wild. To start at the beginning, book one is the award-winning The Mermaid's Wrath, and The Sorrow of Bees is book two. [Read More]

Duskshade

by Madison Patershuk and Ebony Dobson

Ophelia’s life is anchored by the measurable laws of the universe. As a dedicated heliophysicist, she trusts what she can prove and she trusts Nick, the man she believes is her soulmate. But when an impossible fracture in reality violently tears Ophelia, Nick, and her loved ones out of the human world and plunges them into the untamed Fae realm of Fenraeis, all earthly logic shatters. Stranded in a world that shouldn't exist, Ophelia quickly realizes they aren't just lost. They are being hunted. The Crownless, a terrifying and relentless entity, doesn't want her dead; he wants her caged. He intends to enslave Phee to siphon the elusive, ancient power awakening in her blood. It is a dormant, near-endless well of magic that hasn't been seen in an age, and this scientist has no idea how to control it. Desperate to keep the people she loves alive, Ophelia must become the warrior she was never meant to be. To survive, she is forced into an uneasy alliance with Kane—the ruthless, infuriating High King who might be just as dangerous as the monsters hunting them. As her impossible abilities rise to the surface, Ophelia realizes her arrival in Fenraeis wasn't an accident. She doesn't believe in destiny, but to keep her power out of the hands of a monster and to save those she loves, she must forge her own. [Read More]

Starless and Bible-Black
Starless and Bible-Black

by Tyler Kimball

This concerns you: the apostles of a divine black hole have invaded the afterlife to pull the plug on a dying universe. The stars are dead. Their orphans huddle together for warmth in the Realm of the Iron Sky, a refugee camp built on the remains of a million fallen empires and gods slain in some inglorious Ragnarök. The Shadowlands Syndicate is a detective agency investigating disturbances in the bleeding edges, dreamscapes, and legal and liminal grey-areas between the Realm's desperate, declining civilizations. One Syndicate crew uncovers a vast conspiracy between a bodysnatching alien acid casualty, a predatory horde, the resurrected agents of an apocalyptic, anthropic church, and scheming ambassadors who came in from the Cold. Starless and Bible-Black is a science-fiction epic of entropy and an introspective look at the battle between hanging on and letting go. [Read More]
