Summary
“You can come in,” a familiar voice says.
”Liam?” I shriek, wriggling in Xaden’s arms. He doesn’t put me down, just strides through the door past Brennan.
”Hey, Vi,” he says. “Hi, Xaden.” He’s sitting on the edge of the bed. Alive. Awake. All the things we were told he probably would never be, when he didn’t wake up before we left for Basgiath on the way to graduation. Pale and thin, with sunken eye sockets and sharp cheekbones, but his smile still shows his dimples and his eyes are the same beautiful blue. Gods, I missed him.
“That’s what I was going to tell you,” Brennan says. Liam gets up very slowly and staggers over to us, Xaden’s shadows wrapping around him to keep him from falling as he stumbles. “He woke up yesterday, yelling about you being tortured and how Xaden had finally come to get you out.”

Summary
“You want to have an heir?” The skepticism is palpable in his tone, as though he’s sure he must have misunderstood her. She doesn’t quite blame him.
“No,” she replies, painfully honest. “I want to have a baby, Xaden. But I’m willing to give you an heir.”
Lonely, desperate, and miserable, Violet’s life as reluctant queen of Tyrrendor in a post-war Aretia is less fairytale and more nightmare. When the husband she never asked for denies her the one last thing she’d hoped could improve her situation, she breaks.
A tale of love and despair – and of how sometimes you need to break completely in order to heal and then, eventually, live.

Summary
‘There is someone whom I am fated to discover. With this spell, I entreat fate for another.’
Budding apothecary witch, Kevin Day, has always known that he has a soulmate, though he has no idea who they are. In a wild bid to protect them from the cruelty of his coven, the Ravens, Kevin decides to perform a "soulmate swap" spell and binds himself to someone who couldn't possibly exist. However, when Kevin finally escapes the Ravens years later, he manages to run into not one but two people who might just—impossibly—fit the bill.
Or is love a possibility for Kevin after all?
