Blurb: 

When you lose everything, how fast will you break?


Killing the Crow should have been Sanja’s death. Instead, she finds herself with the fairy king unwilling to heal her, and a palace full of gorgeous fairies swarming the halls she’s been walking in solitude for the past months.


As Sanja slips into her role as Recienne’s political guest, she is more in need of the support of her friends than ever before. Especially when the Crow Fairies have spies everywhere and Sanja’s loss of magic makes her an easy target.


But sitting by and watching Recienne juggle his responsibilities is not part of Sanja’s plans. Time is running out. Ret Relah is around the corner and the Crows are ready to seize power.


Sanja is prepared to fight with all she has—because there is one thing Sanja knows with full clarity: She cannot let anything happen to her new family, even if it means she may lose everything.





"Chocolate fanatic, milk-foam enthusiast and huge friend of the southern sting-ray. Writing is an unexpected career-path for me."

#NewRelease - Johara's Choice by #AstridVJ

  


Title: Johara’s Choice

Author: Astrid V.J.

Genre: Fantasy Fairy Retelling

Publication Date: May 26th, 2023

Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR


Blurb: 

Locked in a tower with the fear of prophecy holding her parents back, Johara dreams of freedom. However, her time in confinement is spent well, researching the true state of her country. When she realises her father has ignored the importance of ancient ritual, Johara must find a way to break free and avert the gathering catastrophe at the risk of being stamped a heretic, or face the annihilation of her people and their way of life.

Haunted by the horrors of war, Erik has given up hope of ever finding anything truly worth fighting for. With the guilt of his past weighing him down, he’s unable to shake off what has been or move forward to a better future. When a twist of fate allows his path to cross Johara’s, everything changes and he begins to hope there might yet be a chance at happiness. But can he embrace life and the spitfire princess who never does as she’s told, running headlong into danger at every turn? Or will he let that, too, slip through his fingers.

Embark on a magical high-stakes adventure in this standalone retelling of Andersen’s classic fairytale, The Tinderbox.

Award-winning and USA Today Bestselling Author, Astrid V.J. was born in South Africa. She is a trained social anthropologist and certified transformational life coach. She currently resides in Sweden with her husband and their two children. In early childhood, she showed an interest in reading and languages—interests which her family encouraged. Astrid started writing her first novel at age 12 and now writes fantasy in a variety of genres, exploring her passion for cultures and languages. When she isn’t writing, Astrid likes to read, take walks in nature, play silly games with her children, do embroidery, and play music.

 

Astrid writes transformation fiction: incorporating transformation principles in novels, rather than writing another self-help book. She loves exploring the human capacity for transformation and potential to achieve success in the face of adversity. Astrid is interested in minority group questions, considerations on social standards of beauty and the negative consequences these have, and would like to make the fantasy genre accessible to people of non-white, non-Christian backgrounds. Astrid feels the fantasy genre has become too restrictive with limited representations of race, ethnicity and culture. She seeks to explore other paths on this writing journey, incorporating her background in anthropology and psychology to create engaging experiences, which also provide food for thought on the diverse topics she finds most important. These include: racism, minority rights, cultural diversity, culture change, intolerance, humanity’s environmental impact, the representation of people on the autism spectrum in among the general populace, the human capacity for transformation, and much more.

#NewRelease - Spelling Disaster by @HarperABrooks

    

Title: Spelling Disaster
Author: Harper A. Brooks
Genre: NA Paranormal Academy
Cover Designer: Design by Definition Covers
Publication Date: May 25th, 2023
Hosted by: Lady Amber's PR

 

Blurb:

Growing up as the daughter of a magical librarian, I’ve lived a thousand lives through books. When I’m supposed to follow family tradition and become a cleric on my twenty-first birthday, the ancient library where I live mysteriously burns down and I’m named the main suspect.

 

To keep me out of trouble, I’m sent away to the Andora Academy of Witchcraft.

 

Cliques thrive at my new school, so of course, I’m at the bottom of the social ladder. But I have a much bigger problem than school drama. Something sinister is lurking in the shadows, something that wants to use me and my family for its devious plot.

 

I’m not the only one who’s noticed, though. Theo, the popular witch I’m crushing on, knows too, and to my luck, he wants to help. Unfortunately, sifting through the academy’s secrets is proving to be just as hard as passing my classes.

 

Scratch that—harder, and much more dangerous.

 

The closer Theo and I get to answers, the more dark magic emerges. I may not have been able to save my home from the flames, but I refuse to let the academy, my family, and the truth all go up in smoke.

 

 

**Spelling Disaster is a NA Paranormal Academy standalone.**




Harper A. Brooks lives in a small town on the New Jersey shore. Even though classic authors have always filled her bookshelves, she finds her writing muse drawn to the dark, magical, and romantic. But when she isn't creating entire worlds with sexy shifters or legendary love stories, you can find her either with a good cup of coffee in hand or at home snuggling with her furry, four-legged son, Sammy.

She writes urban fantasy and paranormal romance.

#CoverReveal - Marrying the Muse by #KariCastaƱo

  

Title: Marrying the Muse
Author: Kari CastaƱo
Genre: RomCom
Cover Designer: Laura with Spellbinding Designs
Publication Date: July 27th, 2023
Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR

Blurb:
How far will a romance-wary thriller writer go in order to save her career? Simple: she finds herself in a fake marriage with a playboy billionaire.

 

Olivia Harris, master of penning thrillers that could scare the socks off a hardened criminal, is facing the literary equivalent of a horror show. Her agent drops the bomb: publishers want romance, not thrillers. So, she's expected to switch from writing about cold-blooded killers to hot-blooded lovers. Just one tiny problem - Olivia wouldn't know romance if it hit her with a dozen roses.

 

Meanwhile, billionaire tycoon and renowned playboy, Alexander Kingston, is facing his own crisis. His playboy antics have finally caught up to him, and his grandfather is done turning a blind eye, threatening to snatch away Kingston Enterprises and his inheritance unless he ties the knot. But where on earth would he find a bride in this eleventh-hour scramble?

 

Enter Fate, who apparently thinks it's a stand-up comedian, flinging Olivia and Alexander together again after a previous one-night-stand. Seeing an unexpected solution to his problem, Alexander takes a wild shot and pitches Olivia a proposal that is more business than bended knee.

 

Will they dare to venture into the unknown or is the absurdity of their agreement doomed to upend their own rebelliously romantic hearts?



Kari CastaƱo is a vibrant new voice in the genre of romantic comedy. She is slated to release her debut novel, "Marrying the Muse," in the summer of 2023.

 

Residing in the sun-kissed landscapes of South Florida, Kari finds inspiration in her lush surroundings, the adventures that come with traveling, and the diverse stories she encounters in her favorite Korean dramas. She has a knack for infusing her narratives with a unique blend of wit, charm, and relatable characters that resonate with readers.

 

Kari CastaƱo is a passionate writer, a global traveler, and an avid K-drama enthusiast. She spends her days crafting stories that bring joy and laughter, echoing her own zest for life, as she prepares to launch "Marrying the Muse.”

I’ve weathered the storms.

Now, it’s my time to bloom.

 

I came too close to losing Nikolai, and it almost destroyed me.

 

I’m not sure why, but it’s getting harder to hate him every day. Something is blossoming between us—something more than lust—and it scares me. It’s more powerful, more magnetic than I can explain, and that makes it dangerous.

For both of us.

 

To make matters worse, Nikolai’s driven by more than revenge now. He still wants to kill my father and rule over the coast, but with our enemies closing in, he’s just as determined to keep me safe.

 

He says he’ll do whatever it takes, even if that means making me his forever.

To save my life, I may have to let the man who ruined my life into my heart. But how can a rose bloom when surrounded by so much darkness?

 

This series is a dark age gap mafia romance. It contains situations and themes that some readers might find offensive and/or triggering.





Brooke Harper creates dark and sexy worlds for her characters to play. A lover of strong coffee and old tombstones, she spins dark tales of sex and sin, pain and passion, and misery and madness that’ll have you flipping the pages and begging for more.
