Synopsis

Ladies Almanack by Djuna Barnes is a satirical novel written in the style of an almanac. It portrays the lives of lesbian women in Paris in the early 20th century, particularly focusing on the character Dame Evangeline Musset. The book uses humor and wit to explore the relationships, sexual and social, among women in the expatriate and artistic community of Paris. It is known for its unique blend of parody, high comedy, and an insider's perspective on the lives of women loving women, and it's celebrated for its playful, complex use of language and its daring in addressing lesbian themes at a time when such topics were often taboo.

    Grace's composed, yet lethal disposition balances his partner Mirage's impulsive nature, creating a duo—the second-generation Brown Ravens—with the potential for greatness. 
     
     
     
    Grace was one of the most decorated sharpshooters in the Marines. He's fiercely committed to righting the wrongs that plague the world and protecting the innocent. But there are too many rules and strict orders in the armed forces the Ravens don't have. 
     
     
     
    Mirage left his world without a trace. 
     
     
     
    He has a brilliant mind and more degrees in science and medicine than one person could ever hope to obtain. Now that the Ravens are done administering their treatments, Mirage can throw knives so fast they turn into phantom blades before he disappears in a way that leaves his enemies in chaos and confusion. And Grace can hit a target from three miles away. 
     
     
     
    When together, their form of silent communication in the field is astonishing. Grace's subtle body movements speak their own language and his long, intense stares into Mirage's grey eyes have created a special bond neither of them saw coming. 
     
     
     
    A forbidden romance that won't stop them from being the second-best assassins in the world. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    A straight-laced realtor from the big city runs face-first into a graffiti artist werewolf and sparks fly. Then their ambitions and secrets threaten to tear them apart. 
    Kent 
    I'm the new boy in this tiny town, but only until I find my clients the lake house they're searching for. Not that I can understand why anyone would want to live here. It seems like a place where nothing ever happens. So imagine my surprise when I stumble across a masked man spray painting a public building under the light of the full moon. Even in a mask, I'm struck by his beauty. Then, without warning, he approaches and does the last thing I ever expected. He kisses me. The moment our lips part, he's gone, vanished into the night and I'm left with a feeling of excitement unlike any I've ever experienced before. 
    But how do I find him again? 
    Eoin 
    The moment I kissed him I knew he was my mate. Even though I don't know his name, I know we were fated to be together, but I ran away before I could act on it. Then, by some strange twist of fate, he walks into my office the next day to hire me. He has no idea that I'm the masked graffiti artist or, more importantly, that I'm a werewolf. But now that he's my client, I have to pretend to be just some boring realtor. 
    However, when I find him waiting near the half-finished mural again, I can't keep my hands off of him. For now, though, the mask stays on. He's too straight-laced to turn a blind eye to my after-dark activities. 
    How long can I keep up this charade? 
    TROPES: standalone, mistaken/hidden identity, hurt/comfort, class difference, human x werewolf, forbidden love, forced proximity, found family, strict roles, and hea.

    Or so I thought… 
    One night, a bottle of gin and a little uncharacteristic self-pity were all the inspiration I needed to launch into a ramble about being alone because I’m bad at everything - even kissing. Determined to prove me wrong, Sawyer decided to shut me up with a kiss. 
    I know he meant for it to be innocent. 
    Turns out it was anything but.

    All I want for Christmas is my best friend, Tyler. And so, it seems, does everyone else... 
    I have an awesome, not at all cheesy mistletoe-related plan to make my Christmas wish come true, but before I can put it into action I’m thwarted by the arrival of not one, not two, but three of Ty’s drop-dead gorgeous former crushes. It seems they’ve all conspired to spend their holiday break at my family’s Aspen resort...and they’ve all got eyes for Tyler—I’m sure of it. 
    Now I need to come up with a new plan. A plan that involves showing Tyler that I’m the guy for him, that what we have could be so much more than friendship... 
    And if I happen to break a limb or burn my house down in the process? Well, as they say...love hurts.
