Nettle is a Bluebell faerie from the lush lands of Sceanth, where fae are taught from birth about choosing their life veins, a stage in their development in which they slip into cocoons and experience dream-like excursions into other worlds. There are dangers, however, and Bluebell faeries risk losing themselves in their dreams if they do not choose their life veins carefully. Nettle has never found happiness in following the traditions of the Bluebells, nor does she know how to properly deal with her indecisive feelings for her girlfriend Piper and for her secret boyfriend, the satyr prince Brawn. So Nettle seeks comfort in her cocoon, in the hopes that she might discover a happiness that has so far eluded her. She wakes in the dark realm of Erw, in a turn-of-the-century fishing village on the shore of a sentient ocean, amidst unrelenting fog, black trees, and a rumored witch who seemingly controls it all. Worse, Nettle soon discovers she cannot wake from this dream. When a local fishergirl helps the faerie make sense of this world, Nettle must decide if she wishes to wake in Sceanth again, or if she will stay in Erw with the comforts she's found. But the Erw Witch won't stop until she destroys the very thing that haunts her own dreams: the Bluebell faerie herself.

Because That's Where Your Heart Is

THIS NEVER HAPPENED is the peculiar story of Epic Small and his journey to find a sense of belonging in his world. Epic is unique in that he suffers from a cognitive disorder known as prosopagnosia, the inability to recognize and remember faces, which only adds to his feelings of disconnectedness. Just as Epic begins seeing a new and unorthodox therapist, he also meets the bold and blithe Abigail Ayr. And when a novel found on the subway begins to strangely mirror events in Epic's own life, his mysteries quickly and uncontrollably begin to unravel. Winding through a patchwork of allusions and clues, readers will slowly piece the truth together as Epic does, while simultaneously considering the possibility that our protagonist might actually be losing his grip on what's real and what's not.
