Her secret will cost her freedom.
His touch will cost her heart.
Imogen needs answers and she's finally willing to search the Four Corners for them. Growing up as the only fae in her tiny village, she’s never belonged. But just as she sets out to discover the truth about her past she makes a small mistake in a local trading town that will cost her, wreathing her journey in a darkness she could never have anticipated…
When she refuses to cooperate after being attacked, she is taken by a dark stranger of immense power for the secret she carries.
Held captive in a foreign city until she gives up her secret, Imogen soon understands the only way to free herself from the literal shadow bonds her abductor is all too fond of holding her with is to bargain with him.
But behind the glittering fae lights of her new confines, something much darker is stirring. And the male who abducted her has secrets of his own that she can’t help wondering about…
But when he is arrested and thrown in a cage, Imogen is given the key to release him, if she chooses.

But can she protect her secret and her heart?

Bone Year
By @ashleyrodonovan

A DEAD HEALER SAVES NO ONE.

Maelis Rose is supposed to be a village healer like her father, but when he dies and a letter summons her to an academy she never applied to, she leaves behind everything she knows.
Her departure comes at the worst-possible time. The Cycle rips through Valen every hundred years, unleashing twisted creatures that decimate entire villages.

A BRUTAL ACADEMY.

Ashwell Academy trains Veilguards: battlefield surgeons who fight to save lives while war rages all around them. Most don't survive training.
Maelis is human in a school full of vampires, fae, shifters, angels, and demons. They see her as weak, disposable, already dead. The headmaster sees something else entirely, and his attention might be worse than their contempt.

A DANGEROUS OBSESSION.

Then there's Draven Alucard, a vampire with blood on his hands and a black wolf that watches her almost as much as he does. He tells her she doesn't belong and pushes her until she breaks, yet when danger finds her, he's always there first. She doesn't understand him but can't stop thinking about him either. He's hiding something.
So is she, though she doesn't know it yet.

A SECRET IN HER BLOOD.

Everyone at Ashwell has an agenda, but Maelis is fighting a war no one else can see. Her hands won't stop shaking, and her father's death haunts every cut she tries to make. If she can't learn to hold a scalpel steady, the Cycle won't be what kills her.

But the real question is—why did Ashwell summon her in the first place? by @sammlxlibrary

Hi my name is Samm I'm from the North East of England.

I started reading a few years ago and got completely obsessed. I love entering another realm for my mind to escape the pressure of daily stresses. Leading on from that I made my bookstagram in January of this year - I can't even remember why 🤣 as i never did social media.
Since then made lovley connections with my community and most of all amazing authors 🙌

I would say alot of my 5 stars have been from indie authors and I am always honoured to post and hype up the books.

So anyway, I diverted massively back to business 🤣 I would be delighted and grateful to become a rep for you. I love the small UK business aspect and it fits nicely within what I love screaming about!

Here is a few bits about me ⬇️

The kids have left, assuming love endures. But can yours?

Book 2 in The Empty Nesters Series
By @koporteousauthor

Thank you Ko Porteous and @rachelsrandomresources
for my gifted copy for review - Gifted|PR

Claire’s marriage is in (total!) crisis. Her husband, Mark, is distracted, presumptuous, and utterly
clueless - smart scales for their 19th wedding anniversary? Really? Perhaps she'd be better off alone.

At least there'd be less laundry.

When Claire suggests separating, Mark panics. He asks for one last chance: twenty dates, one for
each year of their marriage, to prove they're better off together than apart.

What follows is a series of adventures Claire never saw coming - some mortifying, some exhilarating,
and some that make her question everything she thought she knew. About Mark. About marriage.
And about the woman she's quietly become while she wasn't paying attention.

As the dates tick down, Claire must decide: is the spark still there - or has their marriage simply run
its course?

My Thoughts 💭

We are stepping into the second book of The Empty Nester series. I thoroughly enjoyed this one just like the first one. Such a page turner you cannot put down!

Full of laughter, love and heartbreak while we navigate through the tough times of Claire and her marriage.

I loved the way Ko Porteous writes, her style is such indepth and the characters are well created and relatable. Which i think makes this story even more captivating.

I would definitely recommend The Empty Nester series 100%

🌙 Human or vampire, the rules of survival are the same: never trust, never yield, and always – always – guard your heart 🪶

I cannot begin to tell you how much i love this series 😍 This new edition is just 🔥

The Serpent and the Wings of Night
@carissabroadbentbooks

For twenty yeaes, Oraya has survived under the protection of a ruthless tyrant: her father. But in a world of predators being the human daughter of a vampire is not a privilege, it's a death sentence.

To save her life, she must win a brutal tournament where the only rule is kill or be killed.
Outmatched, she forms a dangerous alliance with her father's sworn enemy. But as the games turns deadly, the line between hunter and prey blurs and the only thing more dangerous than the arena is the undeniable pull between them.
