Voyage of the Damned (2024)
Frances White
"Frances White's VOYAGE OF THE DAMNED is a fiendishly compelling locked room mystery brimming with character and heart that blew me away! White's protagonist Ganymedes Piscero is utterly endearing. His unique brand of humour, bravado, and vulnerability hits a bullseye in the feels. A delightful debut."
Faebound (2024)

Saara El-Arifi
"I can't get enough of these warrior fae - seductive, dangerous, and sexy as hell! *fans self* A romantic fantasy full of tenderness and vengeance, hope and sacrifice. Enthralling to the last page."
Mindbreaker (2023)
Kate Dylan
"Kate Dylan takes tech, dogma, and corporate power, wraps it in a dystopian wasteland and delivers an explosive, high body count, white knuckle ride."
