Quick Shadow World Announcement

By No Comments

Some of you might have noticed that the pre-orders for Shadow World have been cancelled/disappeared off vendor sites. And yes, that’s all true.

First of all, I’d like to stress that Shadow World will be releasing on December 18th as originally planned. But…

(Here comes the fun part)

Okay, I love technology. Seriously. A-freaking-dore it. But sometimes, the relationship just doesn’t quite go in the direction one would expect. Sounds familiar?

(I hope not, though I think the answer for most people on that would be a grumbling yes)

Unfortunately, this wasn’t a case of a printer not hooking up to wi-fi or a computer freezing (or even Word doing its thing and correcting words despite having auto-correct off). Nope, this had to do with distribution and something fishy going on with the pre-order commands not going through once entered into the system.

Since I didn’t want to wing it and hope for an outcome that wouldn’t be a complete mess, the only way to go forward to was to wipe the slate clean and start again. So that’s exactly what I did.

I’m still not sure if everything is solved now, but at least it looks that way.

And, hopefully, it will stay that way all up until the 18th, when Shadow World releases.

Last but not least, I want to thank everyone who had their pre-orders cancelled for their patience. As well as all of you who’re probably clicking on dead links in the meantime.

(*aggressively writes down FIX LINKS in bullet journal*)

Seriously, I love all of you, and I hope you’ll enjoy Crina’s story in a little less than two weeks’ time!

Release day: EVENFALL

“The thing I noticed above all else when unconsciousness released me from its talons of darkness, was that for the first time in my life, I found myself gazing at the night sky.

The second, just as enchanting, yet infinitely more unbelievable, was that the world around me was no longer mine.

A raspy laugh escaped my lips. 

I should have been scared, terrified of this impossibility. But I didn’t have the strength to do anything more than roll over onto my back and drink it all in. 

Above me, a spill of flickering, pale golden light scattered across the canvas, painting a breathtaking blend of black, violet, and deep blue. My breath hitched as a thought wormed its way in. I blinked, refusing to acknowledge that hopeful voice in case this smattering of illuminated specs was a consequence of my…fall?

Given my undignified position and the sting that crawled across my palms, I had to have fallen.”

LOTTE IS BACK!

The Games are over. But the fight has just begun. 

When one of her coaches goes missing, fixing the club’s tarnished reputation becomes the least of Lotte’s problems. Especially as her mission to locate Voit puts her in the path of the one person she desperately hoped to avoid.

Refusing to subject herself to Isa Vogt’s volatile presence for a second time, Lotte forms an unconventional alliance with a demon who’s set on bringing her coach to safety. But a common goal isn’t the only thing Lotte and Afanasiy share.

As their attraction deepens and the string of disappearances shifts to murders, Lotte can’t bring herself to walk away. From the demon or the case.

Call for reviewers: EVENFALL

By No Comments

IMG_8788

Sometimes, it’s still hard to believe that Evenfall is an actual book now. This story is incredibly dear to us (I know, I know, all of them are, but really, I/we love each and every new book with everything I/we have), so we decided to do something special…

For the first time, we’re not only putting up a public request form, but giving out e-ARCs as well as physical ones.

If you’re a reviewer/book blogger (from anywhere in the world) who enjoys YA fantasy with a strong romantic undercurrent, you can apply for an ARC through this form.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Evenfall, here’s the blurb:

A monster does not deserve the intimacy of a name

As if waking up in an unfamiliar world isn’t enough of a surprise, Ember gains a new title to her name. Savior.
​
Hunted by the Crescent Prince and his lethal shadows, she accepts a young Mage’s help to navigate the land of blood magic and its many illusions. But where Ada sees the good in her power, Ember discovers something else.
​
An icy darkness, designed to take lives, not save them.
​
The only thing worse than not being able to rely on her senses—or the reality she had once believed to be true—is knowing that she cannot trust her heart. Especially as it seems to draw her to the one person in whose hands she can never fall…

Will Ember escape the thrall of darkness or will she reign in it?

Working as a blacksmith for noblemen willing to kill to protect their secrets, Avvyr knows his days are numbered. Unless he walks a path more dangerous than death itself.

As he unearths the truth behind their power—something far grimmer than he ever could have imagined—Avvyr realizes there is a way to put an end to the nobles’ brutal reign.

But while his intentions are pure, his actions thin the divide between life and darkness, threatening to entrap him in the very cage he wanted the world to escape.​
