"Nightmares and humans collide in book 2 of the thrilling Nightstrider dark fantasy series.
Three weeks have passed since Wren's vengeful path collided with those of Prince Caine, Queen Ila, and fellow nightmare Alaric. Three weeks since she nearly struck her creator down with the arcane magic now threatening to burn her from the inside out. Stalked by spectral half-remembered dreams and haunted by the impossible choices they were forced to make, the unlikely allies seek refuge in Marrowrun, the last free city in the dream realm and supposedly home to an exiled weaver who can teach Wren to wield her newfound power.
When they are ambushed and brought before to the ruler of the city they expect the worst, but instead the baron proposes a bargain: protection from Warwick and the leagues of mercenaries at his disposal in exchange for Warwick's head. Despite their hesitation, Wren and the others accept and prepare to battle the foul king from the lavish halls of the Pale Citadel. Their bonds deepen as they grow stronger in relative safety-until the first ritualistic slaying stains the ivory halls of the citadel.
All the while a fathomless voice from beyond the fabric of reality thrums through Wren, potent as her magic and just as terrifying. It calls her not Wren nor even Nightstrider, but Vessel.

"USA Today bestseller Lenora Bell continues her sparkling, sensual Thunderbolt Club series with a marriage of convenience between a grumpy, combat-scarred duke and his cheerful and beautiful ward.
War hero Deckard Payne, Duke of Warburton, made a battlefield promise to become guardian to orphan Analise Crewe. He certainly didn’t agree to marry the girl! But that’s exactly what happens when he’s forced to wed her to save her honor.
The last thing Analise wants is a loveless marriage to a brooding—albeit handsome—duke who lives in a gloomy castle and keeps his doors—and his heart—tightly locked. He’s determined to keep her at arm’s length—but she’s not easily deterred when there’s a tough case to crack.
Warburton never wanted a wife. Especially an inquisitive and far-too-pretty whirlwind who upends his regimented life. Her sunny, winning ways charm everyone she meets and soon she’s unearthing buried secrets, plotting love matches, and shining light into even the darkest of hearts…his own. "
"'Gorgeously written and desperately hot... Hands down, my favorite romance of the decade.' - Alix E. Harrow, New York Times bestselling author of Starling House
A sapphic regency romance about the duke who fears nothing... until the woman she never forgot walks through the door and brings her to her knees.
Set in a world of powerful female nobles and the women who love them...
Kate, Duke of Howard, is known throughout Europe as a merciless autocrat not to be crossed. Consumed by a bitter rivalry, she avoids society and has vowed never to trap a woman into marriage with a monster like herself.
The beautiful, ambitious courtesan Celine Genet once threw herself on the mercy of the visiting Duke of Howard. She was desperate to escape the guillotine. But after a night of searing passion, the duke left her to the ravages of Revolutionary Paris and didn’t look back. Now Celine is in London and in possession of a dangerous letter that proves the Duke of Howard committed treason as a child - and possibly even murder.
Celine wants a titled husband in return for keeping the duke’s secret, leaving Kate no choice but to parade her around the most fashionable ballrooms. But as Celine takes society by storm, Kate finds herself growing fond of the woman set on destroying her. And as their attraction mounts, Kate faces an impossible choice: keep her childhood secret, or win the woman she loves.
Anna Cowan's The Duke is an utterly unforgettable, page-turning romance featuring two women who, separately, are a danger to each other, but together, could be the most powerful duo London has ever seen.
'The Duke is Georgette Heyer quadrupled and queered, flipping the erotic appeal of a cold-hearted alpha into an alternate England in which women can be dukes and marry whom they please. I loved and envied the way it combined the originality of My Lady Jane, the luxury of Bridgerton, and the smutty, fabulous sex of Fingersmith.' - Eloisa James, New York Times bestselling author of Viscount in Love"
