Carnival Fantastico (2026)
Angela Montoya
"Carnival Fantistico has everything I adore: fortune tellers, whimsical magic, and a tense, ink-filled mystery. But the wit and tenderness between the once-lovers truly stole my heart and kept me obsessively turning the pages."

The Weaver Bride (2025)
(Weaver Bride, book 1)
Lydia Gregovic
"A perfect mix of classic gothic suspense meets modern romantasy with an ending that had me so spellbound that I'm convinced Lydia Gregovic may be a silkwitch herself."

Den of Liars (2025)
(Devious , book 1)
Jessica S Olson
"Glittering and addictive, Den of Liars held me spellbound from cover to cover with its dangerous mystery, smoldering romance, and intricately layered stakes. This delicious story will leave you breathless from the first roll of the enchanted dice."
