When I was a girl, my father forced me to swallow a magical crystal. The Dragon's Tear turned my bones fragile as glass. I was no Ionger strong enough to dance or learn to fight...or take any lover until my wedding day. I was destined to wed the King of the Dragons, and only he could restore my health. Now it is time to fulfill the prophecy. To become King Aurekdel's bride. I don't want him. I want the dashing young head of my guard, Oszin, who has been my best friend and secret crush since I was fifteen. But Oszin can't heal me. Only Aurekdel can. I already hate him and his tall, fierce warrior champion Lord Seron. I really had no idea what I was in for. Aurekdel is charming and clever and he wants to give me everything I ever wanted and then some. The love of three protective men, a magical garden, a blessed sword, and the role of a great queen. But there is one thing he cannot give me after all: a cure. The prophecy was a lie. I am still broken and no one knows went wrong. I'm determined to learn to fight for everything I hold dear, but the truth of the prophecy will shatter the kingdom Aurekdel has built...and gain the attention of the dark dragon who will change our destiny. Kingdoms of Sky and Shadow is a complete reverse harem fantasy romance series with dragon shifters, steam, and deep world-building. Contents: Book One: The Glass Princess Book Two: The Shadowed Crown Book Three: The Crystal Queen

"Vivid characters, terrifying monsters, and world building as deep and dark as the ocean." --Victoria Aveyard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Queen I am Henrietta Howel. The first female sorcerer in hundreds of years. The prophesied one. Or am I? Henrietta Howel can burst into flames. Forced to reveal her power to save a friend, she's shocked when instead of being executed, she's invited to train as one of Her Majesty's royal sorcerers. Thrust into the glamour of Victorian London, Henrietta is declared the chosen one, the girl who will defeat the Ancients, bloodthirsty demons terrorizing humanity. She also meets her fellow sorcerer trainees, handsome young men eager to test her power and her heart. One will challenge her. One will fight for her. One will betray her. But Henrietta Howel is not the chosen one. As she plays a dangerous game of deception, she discovers that the sorcerers have their own secrets to protect. With battle looming, what does it mean to not be the one? And how much will she risk to save the city—and the one she loves? Exhilarating and gripping, Jessica Cluess's spellbinding fantasy introduces a powerful, unforgettably heroine, and a world filled with magic, romance, and betrayal. Hand to fans of Libba Bray, Sarah J. Maas, and Cassandra Clare. "The magic! The intrigue! The guys! We were sucked into this monster-ridden, alternative England from page one. Henrietta is literally a 'girl on fire' and this team of sorcerers training for battle had a pinch of Potter blended with a drop of [Cassandra Clare's] Infernal Devices." --Justine Magazine "Cluess gamely turns the chosen-one trope upside down in this smashing dark fantasy." --Publishers Weekly, Starred Review "Unputdownable. I loved the monsters, the magic, and the teen warriors who are their world's best hope! Jessica Cluess is an awesome storyteller!" --Tamora Pierce, #1 New York Times bestselling author "A fun, inventive fantasy. I totally have a book crush on Rook." --Sarah Rees Brennan, New York Times bestselling author "Pure enchantment. I love how Cluess turned the 'chosen one' archetype on its head. With the emotional intensity of my favorite fantasy books, this is the kind of story that makes you forget yourself." --Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author of The Star-Touched Queen "A glorious, fast-paced romp of an adventure. Jessica Cluess has built her story out of my favorite ingredients: sorcery, demons, romance, and danger." --Kelly Link, author of Pretty Monsters

"Tonight, I will master every inch of you. And you will probably feel the urge to beg me to stop, but you won’t, will you?” I was raised a princess, but a witch’s curse would seal my fate. Only one man dared to marry me—the future king of the fae. I’m a long way from home. In this palace, there is no freedom, no solitude. I am his possession. Corseted and gilded, or stripped and bound—either way, I’m his to claim. Anytime. Anywhere. It is the role of the king to dominate his bride, publicly and often. I am the living symbol of his strength. But there is no denying his charm and the power he holds to make me crave him. Even as it leads me to the most dreadful event of all—the day I must submit to him before the eyes of the entire court. However, he has a secret of his own. A secret that will lead me into the arms not just one men, but two at once—my beloved King Augustus and our loyal guard, Count Axel. A forbidden love none of us can turn away from. The witch who cursed me lurks in the shadows, ready to destroy us all. The Surrender of Sleeping Beauty was inspired by the life of Marie Antoinette and my love of fairy tales with a sensual twist. It contains intense sexual scenes and some darker themes, along with much decadence, gardens and gowns, and a happily ever after that is both bitter and sweet. This series was originally published as the Queen of the Sun Palace and collects the following three books: BOOK ONE: PRISONER OF SILK BOOK TWO: PRISONER OF MIRRORS BOOK THREE: PRISONER OF DREAMS

My world isn’t safe. The northern gate lies open and monsters roam the land. Towns are locked behind walls, protected by the emperor and his Black Army. Once, a fated priestess and her four guardians kept the gate sealed with magic, but there hasn’t been a priestess in over a century…or so I thought. When a monster attacks me within the walls of my village, I am saved by Sir Forrest—the quiet former soldier who came to Istim three years ago. Turns out, he’s been watching me.

I’ve always liked attention…but this is too much. This reverse harem epic fantasy romance trilogy is for those who enjoy plenty of steam, strong heroines, a few hot guys (and one who is just pretty and probably sparkles), more tragic pasts and secrets than any group of people should reasonably have, and winged cats.

I finally have a home, reunited with my human father. He’s well-to-do, with a pretty wife and a grand house, and the moment I step in the door, I’m expected to begin lessons in reading, writing, and behaving like a lady. But I’m no lady. I’m a wolf. And much to my surprise, so is my tutor. Mr. Arrowen has a human name and human manners, but golden eyes don’t lie. He’s wolvenfolk, to be sure, pretending to be a proper gentleman. Wolves know their mates right away, and I can’t deny the attraction I feel—but somehow, he can, and he does. He doesn’t want to risk his reputation, especially when wolves have been killed over less than laying a hand on a wealthy girl. My family would like to see me marry my distant cousin Patrick. Patrick is as handsome as Mr. Arrowen, but he’s a hunter. He has his sights on the most wanted creature in the kingdom: the white wolf accused of killing a sacred stag. Patrick wants my help to track him and claim the reward. I yearn to run through the woods, but my father would never let me—unless I pay a visit to my grandmother’s cottage. But do I want to hunt one of my own kind, even if he is a criminal? And what if he isn’t a criminal at all, but someone all too familiar...? Taming Red Riding Hood is a standalone fairy tale retelling for those who like an unabashedly adorable happily ever after with serious steaminess! Although it is definitely standalone, it doesn't hurt to read The Beggar Princess before this one.

Maybe I was the girl Clara didn’t want me to be. Here I was, with the goblin king, and I didn’t want him to stop. For the past ten years, the Goblin King has stayed locked away in his caverns. He only opens his doors for one purpose: he will give one gold coin for every night a girl is willing to spend with him. Despite his fearsome reputation, his fangs and claws, the girls come back safe and sound, and they never say a word about it. One must be very desperate to accept such an offer…or very curious. Well, everyone says curiosity has always been my downfall. Too clever for a girl so beautiful. Now my family is on the brink of losing everything. My sister Clara knows the goblin king’s story has always intrigued me, and she’s willing to sacrifice me to get her hands on his money. But I finally have the chance to sate my curiosity. What will I find when I get there? A man who is cruelly cursed, haunted by a past misdeed? Or the man who will unlock all of my secret desires? It has been a long time since the Goblin King trusted anyone, but if he is willing to trust me, I might be able to save him and his people. But the witch who cursed him is close at hand, and she doesn’t play fair. Beauty and the Goblin King is a fairy tale retelling for those who like an adorable happily ever after with a side of serious steaminess!
