Discover the infinite realms of asexual love across sci-fi,
fantasy, and contemporary stories From a wheelchair user racing to
save her kidnapped girlfriend and a little mermaid who loves her
sisters more than suitors, to a slayer whose virgin blood keeps
attracting monsters, the stories of this anthology are anything but
conventional. Whether adventuring through space, outsmarting a
vengeful water spirit, or surviving haunted cemeteries, no two aces
are the same in these 14 unique works that highlight asexual
romance, aromantic love, and identities across the asexual
spectrum.
The eat-the-rich, deliciously dark fantasy you've been waiting for. A
girl with the power of the banished gods must bind herself to a wicked
Prince to save her crumbling world, as the poor are sacrificed to save
the rich. It's time for the wealthy to be devoured...
Lorena Adler has a secret--she holds the power of the banished gods,
the Noble and the Vile, inside her. But she has spent her entire life
hiding from the world and her past. Lorena's content to spend her days
as an undertaker in a small town, marry her best friend, Julian, and
live an unfulfilling life so long as no one uncovers her true nature.
But when the notoriously bloodthirsty and equally Vile crown prince
comes to arrest Julian's father, he immediately recognizes Lorena for
what she is. So, she makes a deal--a fair trial for her betrothed's
father in exchange for her service to the crown.
The prince is desperate for her help. He's spent years trying to repair
the weakening Door that holds back the Vile...and he's losing the
battle. As Lorena learns more about the Door and the horrifying price
it takes to keep it closed, she'll have to embrace both parts of
herself to survive.
From the author of the Mask of Shadows duology comes this
fast-paced YA fantasy, where two young women must trade lives, work
together to stay alive, and end a war caused by magic and greed
Emilie des Marais is more at home holding scalpels than embroidery
needles and is desperate to escape her noble roots to serve her
country as a physician. But society dictates a noble lady cannot
perform such gruesome work. Annette Boucher, overlooked and
overworked by her family, wants more from life than her humble
beginnings and is desperate to be trained in magic. So when a
strange noble girl offers Annette the chance of a lifetime, she
accepts. Emilie and Annette swap lives-Annette attends finishing
school as a noble lady to be trained in the ways of divination,
while Emilie enrolls to be a physician's assistant, using her
natural magical talent to save lives. But when their nation
instigates a terrible war, Emilie and Annette come together to help
the rebellion unearth the truth before it's too late. Belle Revolte

-Tamora Pierce, #1 New York Times bestselling author I needed to
win. They needed to die. Sallot Leon is a thief, and a good one at
that. But gender fluid Sal wants nothing more than to escape the
drudgery of life as a highway robber and get closer to the
upper-class-and the nobles who destroyed their home. When Sal
steals a flyer for an audition to become a member of The Left
Hand-the Queen's personal assassins, named after the rings she
wears-Sal jumps at the chance to infiltrate the court and get
revenge. But the audition is a fight to the death filled with
clever circus acrobats, lethal apothecaries, and vicious
ex-soldiers. A childhood as a common criminal hardly prepared Sal
for the trials. And as Sal succeeds in the competition, and wins
the heart of Elise, an intriguing scribe at court, they start to
dream of a new life and a different future, but one that Sal can
have only if they survive. This heart-pounding YA story of magic,
