A witch's curse turns cruel Lord Caspian into a beast, and causes Transylvania to suffer a century of snowfall and blood-shed. When the Hershel men trespass on the Beast's property during a hunt, Lord Caspian captures and threatens them with death. Harlan Hershel offers his daughter Rosalind to the beast for a month to save his sons. But when the Beast sees Rosalind, he believes she is the reincarnation of his late wife and becomes fiercely drawn to her. Though terrified at first, Rosalind grows fond of the abominable lord. The closer she gets to the secrets Caspian keeps, especially of the mysterious stranger in the violin room, the closer she comes to the darkness waking inside her. When Rosalind's true calling is discovered, that she is the one prophesied to kill the lord, her burning desire for him threatens to destroy the person she once was, and all of Transylvania. Rosalind must decided if she is strong enough to destroy Caspian and end his rein of blood, or give into the dark love she has found and become a monster herself. Beauty and the Beast meets Dracula.

{Wattys 2019 winner - Historical Fiction} In the glittering, rococo Paris of 1728, eighteen-year-old Olivier d'Aumont has a plethora of problems he'd rather not deal with, the most troublesome of which is his straight-laced and boring-to-tears older brother getting himself arrested for murder. Olivier, convinced his brother has been framed, enlists the help of his twin sister to investigate the murder and prove their brother is innocent. But a mysterious clock magic that turns aristocrats into mind-altered puppets has been plaguing the city, and Olivier soon discovers both the sickness and the murder are part of a sinister plot to overthrow the king. Teaming up with a teenage King Louis XV and a dagger-wielding female clockmaker, Olivier must push through his debilitating anxiety and stop the mastermind behind the plot. Time is ticking, and if Olivier doesn't succeed, his brother will be hanged for a crime he didn't commit-and the entirety of Paris will be overrun by deadly magic. **re-uploading heavily revised version**
