Action-packed from the start, with twists, intrigue, and dangerous politics, Kingdoms of Shadow and Ash is a sexy new fantasy series perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Sarah J. Maas, and Danielle L. Jensen. Legend states that when a ruler worthy of the name reunites the Five Kingdoms, the dragons will return. Fyia has done just that, and she wants her dragons. But the dragon eggs are missing, her five war-ravaged kingdoms are unhappy bedfellows, and calls for her to marry grow ever louder. Fyia hasn't fought so hard to hand her spoils to another, and her quest to find the missing eggs leads her to the powerful, reclusive King of the Black Hoods. A formidable man whose magical abilities match her own, as does his stubbornness. When he refuses to help, she must find a way to make him, even if that means risking the frozen wilds with the infuriating King … even if it means risking the one thing she swore she never would: her heart. ---- Game of Thrones meets From Blood and Ash in this epic duology recommended for an adult audience.

Once Upon a Forbidden Desire

'I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN’ The Resident Magazine ‘WORDS CANNOT ADEQUATELY DESCRIBE THIS ENCHANTING BOOK!’ Taking it One Book at a Time book blog 'DRAMA AND ACTION FROM THE OUTSET...THIS TRULY IS AN INCREDIBLE STORY’ The Pursuit of Bookiness Anita has never been ordinary; she’s stuck out like a sore thumb her entire life. Not only can she see the energy of others, a rare skill, but she’s won every physical challenge she’s ever entered. So when the powerful, good looking Descendants, Marcus and Alexander, mysteriously arrive in Empire, her difference attracts and keeps their attention. Once in Empire, the sudden death of ruling Body Descendant, Christiana, sets in motion a number of events; a quest for the treacherous Austin to find the girl Christiana had been looking for; a challenge where Anita stands out more vibrantly than ever before; a perilous dip in the world’s energy; and a dangerous belief among the people that they will never truly be free. Powerful factions form within the ruling elite, and when a trusted friend and mentor reaches out to ask for Anita’s help, she has to make a choice: help her friend and betray the one she loves, or do nothing and watch the people starve. Trigger warnings for a possessive relationship and violence. Contains sexual content.

Queen of Empire

Storm is stuck in a life not of her choosing. She was royal once, until her father died, leaving her in the care of wicked Queen Rosalind, and the Queen is in league with the fallen angels, who have descended like a plague onto their lands, their leader, Gabriel, as cunning as he is beautiful, the worst of them all. But the creatures of Fairy Land are determined to fight back; to put an end to the death and destruction wrought by the angels, and they want Storm to help. But this land has not been kind to Storm, and she considers that maybe the angels have more to offer ... As she uncovers why the angels have come to Fairy Land, and what they are looking for, Storm realizes everything is not quite as it seems. She finds a way to be free of her unhappy existence, but learns the hard way that sometimes you should be careful what you wish for. House of Storms and Secrets is a romantic portal fantasy and can be read as a standalone novel. It starts in the world of The Prince and the Fairy Godmother (HR Moore's short story in the Once Upon A Forbidden Desire anthology), then moves to a darker place that will be familiar to those who know the Shadow and Ash world ... Content warning: threat of sexual assault and reference to past sexual abuse

House of Storms and Secrets

Perfect for book clubs who want an easy, engaging read and lots to talk about. "For anyone who would like a little substance alongside their escapism." Reader Review "I’m still thinking about it." Reader Review "I can’t stop telling others to read it so I can discuss it with them!" Reader Review It's 2048. Automation has stolen vast swathes of jobs, and the government pays everyone a no-strings-attached income, enough to live on, in order to keep the economy afloat. Society is split into those who can get jobs; engineers, managers, creatives, and those who cannot. Iva Brooksbank, Senior Investigator of the Enforcement Office, has made a career of taking down corporate moguls who flout the rules, and now she has Guy Strathclyde, CEO of Cybax Technologies, firmly in her sights. She's sure he's up to something, and races to find evidence that will stick, before her time runs out. Lulu Banks, a world famous artist, uses her work to highlight the deep inequalities and injustices the world now faces, perpetuated, she thinks, by the relentless march of technology. But when she finds herself the object of Guy's affections, she has to decide if she can trust his intentions, or if he's just the same as all the other corporate big dogs.
