They loved hard, broke harder when she ran from the crown, and spent a year pretending it didn’t matter. Now the pleasure mage she abandoned and his best friend are back as she's hunted by a ruthless regime. Between love, lust, and vengeance, Viv learns freedom always costs blood.

REBECCA x THE PERFECT COUPLE
She's always tried to do the 'right thing' but when a death becomes a suspected murder, a PR exec must decide how far she'll go to protect the people she loves. They all have a motive. Esp. the dead woman's husband. The man she's in love with.

BLUE SISTERS X THE PUSH X DORIAN GRAY
Gracie Green, selfish & reckless, pledges her soul to the Devil in exchange for eternal youth & beauty, but the Devil plays tricks & sucks Gracie into a spiral of destruction threatening her lovers & the life of her perfect sister Faith.
#DVPit #A #LGBTQ #DIS

Nine images in tones of blue and green depicting a woman in a white dress on a Catwalk, a pier, a woman's face being injected, a ring of spooky trees and two arms reaching for one another. One pale, the other devil like.

This is your friendly reminder that RRPs have been going up. A new paperback can run between £10.99-£16.99. HB even more. I know no one wants to pay more for anything but book prices have stagnated for YEARS while costs are soaring.

No better time to support indie publishing

'I, SAID THE SPARROW'
In WWI Sussex, when a petty criminal is found gutted like a fish, tales of forbidden love, the infamous Fowler Gang, and two young suffragettes, bleed together staining the River Arun red.

Down the spyglasses eye, the Tecora glinted in the distance. Its rusting metal hull flushed sanguine through peeling haint blue, disguising it as a bleeding cloud on the desert’s barren horizon.
