Being a powerless witch in a family of murderous occultists, Natalia knows better than to make any kind of deal with a supernatural creature. But when she comes face to face with the Nocnitsa who haunts her nightmares, she can’t deny that she’s tempted.

Lenora made a mistake. She trusted the wrong man, and in a moment of weakness, he stole a family heirloom from her. Her only chance to get it back will be during Samhain, when the Shadow Market opens and magical folk gather for three days to celebrate, and unfortunately she can’t do it alone. She needs a demon.

Ramanu’s entire existence is making bargains. They’re a bargainer demon, after all. They’ve had their eye on Lenora for some time now, so they’re pleased when she summons them to help with her little thief problem…especially because it means spending time in close proximity with her.

Lenora thought she could get away with a bargain that didn’t require seven years of service, but when Ramanu informs her those are the terms, she decides to go it alone…even though the demon wants to tag along to the market. But as the clock ticks down and all Lenora’s attempts to reclaim her amulet fail, making a deal with Ramanu might be the only option she has…

And they might take her heart right along with her soul.

trong and sensitive sidekick, Echo, is everything Morgan ever dreamed of. And this powerful mage and flirty henchwoman is not letting the fact their employers are archenemies stand in the way of them starting a life together.

Faking her own death, Morgan starts anew as she and Echo head to the city of Laluna to open a bookshop inside a “barely haunted” church. They receive help from a shy tiefling carpenter looking to make a name for herself, and a chatty mousefolk librarian with big dreams. Igni—a feisty fire spirit who wants to eat the books—is more of a hindrance, but at least he keeps the shop warm.

Everything is perfect—as long as the villain Avery, Morgan’s old boss, doesn’t find out she’s alive. But the unexpected arrival of Broadshield, the annoyingly charming hero and Echo’s previous companion, puts Morgan’s cosy life in jeopardy. Can Morgan keep her happy ending or will her secrets destroy everything?

When Dom’s wayward power lashes out against Olbric, he’s forced to confront what these visions are trying to tell him: He needs to return to Airedale and find his mother.

But in the fallout of the events at the Eastern Tower, Dom and Olbric learn that leaving the Crux won't be so easy.

Rubem of No-Man’s Land was content keeping to his wine, his pets, and his extensive collection of fishnets.

But since a sentient, fuel-producing parasite bonded to his brainstem, every morally-depraved scientist and hardcore rebel for a hundred miles wants to ruthlessly dissect him. The parasite itself is no better, influencing his emotions and sassing him with his own memories as it slowly takes over his body.

The only person offering Rubem help is Tavish K. Findlay, a dashing and manipulative philanthropist whose mother’s fuel company monopolizes their corrupt underwater city with an iron claw. She desperately wants to tear Rubem apart for the parasite before those who oppose her can do the same. Her son is irresistibly charismatic though, and after a lifetime of being kicked out and disavowed, Rubem is desperate to believe in the friendship Tavish offers.

With revolutionary plots and political schemes tangling his every choice, Rubem must soon decide whether or not to trust Tavish in his fight against the parasite’s growing control.

Dimitri Alexeyev used to be the Tzar of Novo-Svitsevo. Now, he is merely a broken man, languishing in exile after losing a devastating civil war instigated by his estranged husband, Alexey Balakin. In hiding with what remains of his court, Dimitri and his spymaster, Vasily Sokolov, engineer a dangerous ruse. Vasily will sneak into Alexey’s court under a false identity to gather information, paving the way for the usurper’s downfall, while Dimitri finds a way to kill him for good.

But stopping Alexey is not so easy as plotting to kill an ordinary man. Through a perversion of the Ludayzim religion that he terms the Holy Science, Alexey has died and resurrected himself in an immortal, indestructible body—and now claims he is guided by the voice of God Himself. Able to summon forth creatures from the realm of demons, he seeks to build an army, turning Novo-Svitsevo into the greatest empire that history has ever seen.

Enter Balen, a rising star in the Paladin Order, who stumbles upon Zavrius’ struggles and offers to train him.

However, Briar quickly learns the fey lady is impossible to please. Not only that, her demands are never-ending, enough to slowly unravel his life and his health.

Wanting to rescue Briar from the same woman who stole his own love for ballet, Malric inserts himself into Briar's life from every angle possible. From posing as a dance instructor in the human world to hiding behind a mask in the fey world, Malric promises he can set Briar free of his fateful deal.
