This BookTok hit follows the
events of Spark of the Everflame with Diem Bellator facing a coming
war, dangerous enemies around every corner, and a battle for her
heart—now in a collectible hardcover edition featuring gorgeous
full-color endpapers, an exclusive designed hardcover case, and a
never-before-seen bonus chapter.
The threat of war has arrived at Diem’s doorstep, along with a new
discovery that could save her people. To use it, she must survive the
next thirty days by bargaining with the people she hates most: the
royal family of House Corbois.
But as she dives into the world of the Descended elite, Diem quickly
realizes good and evil aren’t as black and white as they seem. Old
prejudices are challenged, and new loyalties blur the line between
friend and foe.
With her mother still missing, the secrets she left behind can no
longer be ignored—and neither can the Guardians and their demands.
Caught between an old flame and a sizzling new spark, Diem must
confront the truth about who she is and what she wants before time runs
out.
An intimate and lyrical celebration of great love, great art, and the sacrifices we make for both
For fifty years, Abe and Jane have been coming to Central Park, as starry-eyed young lovers, as frustrated and exhausted parents, as artists watching their careers take flight. They came alone when they needed to get away from each other, and together when they had something important to discuss. The Park has been their witness for half a century of love. Until now.
Jane is dying, and Abe is recounting their life together as a way of keeping them going: the parts they knew—their courtship and early marriage, their blossoming creative lives—and the parts they didn’t always want to know—the determined young student of Abe’s looking for a love story of her own, and their son, Max, who believes his mother chose art over parenthood, and who has avoided love and intimacy at all costs. Told in various points of view, even in conversation with Central Park, these voices weave in and out to paint a portrait as complicated and essential as love itself.
An homage to New York City, to romance, and even to loss, This Is a Love Story tenderly and suspensefully captures deep truths about life and marriage in radiant prose. It is about love that endures despite what life throws at us, or perhaps even because of it.
FATE IS A CRUEL MISTRESS The daughter of a powerful but disgraced Blood Worker, Shan LeClaire has spent her entire life perfecting her blood magic, building her network of spies, and gathering every scrap of power she could. Now, to protect her brother, she assassinates their father and takes her place at the head of the family. And that is only the start of her revenge. Samuel Hutchinson is a bastard with a terrible gift. When he stumbles upon the first victim of a magical serial killer, he's drawn into the world of magic and intrigue he's worked so hard to avoid - and is pulled deeply into the ravenous and bloodthirsty court of the vampire king. Tasked by the Eternal King to discover the identity of the killer cutting a bloody swath through the city, Samuel, Shan and mysterious Royal Bloodworker Isaac find themselves growing ever closer to each other. But Shan's plans are treacherous, and as she lures Samuel into her complicated web of desire, treason and vengeance, he must decide if the good of their nation is worth the cost of his soul. Fans of From Blood and Ash and Kingdom of the Wicked will devour this decadent, bloodthirsty debut.

down, it's Linc who steps in to shield me.
Only, it's not just my safety at risk—it's my heart. Because when Linc
touches me, I lose all sense.
We might be building a life together. But Linc and I both have secrets
and it’s only a matter of time until the forces from our pasts come
back to tear everything apart. Forever.
