The Queen of Hearts meets the gilded world of Marie Antoinette. A princess with a holy Gift. A kingdom hiding a dangerous secret. And a marriage meant to bring peace to a land with a violent history of war. Eighteen-year-old Ophelia Rosiers is a princess of Rosailles, and also the heir to a holy Gift that determined the fate of her queendom centuries ago. But now with her Gift locked away, she can only hear the whispers of the Angels her people revere. As a result, her sister has been named next in line, and she is being sent to their enemy nation, Garnette, in order to marry their Crown Prince and hopefully lead their countries into an era of much needed peace. Only when she arrives, she quickly starts to suspect her betrothed is not who she dreamed him to be. Stuck in a palace surrounded by gossiping courtiers and enemies at every turn, Ophelia's friends are few. Especially when one of her handmaidens turns out to have secrets of her own, turning what Ophelia has always believed about her destiny upside down. Desperate for a distraction, she finds company with Prince Pierre-her betrothed's younger brother-who has motives of his own. When betrayal lands Ophelia as Garnette's prisoner, she realizes her whole life she has been dictated by other people's lies. With peace shattered for good and Ophelia's fate left in her own hands, she does the one thing she has left-she takes back control, even if it means turning into the very monster her enemies make her out to be. Bisexual MC. Book 1 in The Blood of the Angels series

[ONC 2023 and Wattys 2024 winner!] Drug dealer Nathan just can't be bothered to care about some of the stranger things in his life. Like the spellbook he found, complete with working magic and all. Okay, fine, maybe he tried one spell, and maybe that ended with his curtains on fire. Lesson learned: leave forces you don't understand alone. Powerful magic or not - for Nathan, this is just another Wednesday. Not everyone shares his opinion. When YouTube sensation Jamie insists on making a video about his discovery and said video goes viral, Nathan finds himself in a spotlight he completely failed to foresee. While he struggles to adjust to his newfound fame, Jamie and her oddly charming eccentricities drag him into a wacky investigation of his magical tome's origins and true nature. Finding answers shouldn't be that hard. But Nathan's criminal associates want his spellbook for themselves. And they'll stop at nothing to get it. ~Book one in the Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations trilogy~
