Lost in a woodland daydream, cherubic eighteen-year-old Anita Lavenham is awoken from a reverie inspired by a sermon about the Devil by the sonorous voice of a handsome gentleman asking her to open the gate she’s leaning on – a gentleman whose imperious, yet raffish air leads her to think that he is Lucifer personified! Anita and her two sisters are impoverished after the loss of their father and their Mama’s illness – and soon she is obliged to go to live in Harrogate with her severe Great-Aunt Matilda, who, to Anita’s chagrin, is determined to marry her off as soon as possible to the ageing and boorish local Parson. It seems she is fated to a life of misery until, by chance, she meets the Dowager Duchess of Ollerton at the Harrogate Pump Room where, to her amazement she realises that the Duchess’s son is none other than her very own handsome fallen angel! Blessed by the kindness of the Duchess, who rescues Anita from the prospect of a loveless marriage and enlists her in the search for a bride for her discerning and disinterested son, Anita finds joy in her magnificent new surroundings and exalted company but still, surely, it is too much for her to hope that she herself might find a true love of her own?Show book

In the towering city of Avalon, where ambition reigns and secrets shimmer beneath glass skyscrapers, Ashlynn Sinclair is a rising analyst with a haunted past—and a dangerous bloodline. On the night of a rare Blood Moon, a long-buried power awakens inside her, marked by a glowing sigil and the return of a mysterious doppelgänger she has seen since childhood. Her world unravels when Marcus Wren, the enigmatic CEO of Vault Enterprises, reveals the truth: she is Unbound—one of three beings born in each cycle, neither human nor divine, but something in between. As Ashlynn begins her transformation, she is drawn into an ancient Trial meant to test the strength of the Unbound. Standing beside her is Adrian, a calm and calculating guardian from her past who holds answers to questions she never dared ask—about her family's fiery death, her supernatural heritage, and the war between factions fighting to control the thinning Veil between worlds. Together, Ashlynn and Adrian navigate a shadowy underworld of secret vaults, corrupted corporations, and magical societies like the Black Quorum and Sanctum. The emergence of the third Unbound—a powerful, unstable entity tied to them both—threatens to tip the balance toward chaos. As Avalon teeters on the brink of becoming a battleground for the forgotten gods and their mortal proxies, Ashlynn must choose: suppress the power that could destroy her, or embrace the flame that could make her a legend. But trust is a rare currency in Avalon, and every ally carries an agenda. As betrayals unravel and old pacts shatter, Ashlynn, Adrian, and the remnants of a fractured resistance must face the greatest truth of all—sometimes the real enemy is the part of yourself you cannot escape.Show book
