Synopsis

D’aussi loin que remontent ses souvenirs, Andraste, issue d’une longue lignée de sorcières, vit dissimulée aux yeux du monde. Son univers restreint ressemble à s’y méprendre à une cage dorée, elle qui ne rêve que de s’envoler. C’est alors qu’une invitation de la main même de la Reine vient bousculer les plans de sa grand-mère qui dirige la famille d’une main de fer. Et, une requête royale ne se refuse pas… à moins de souhaiter perdre la tête.
Sa découverte du monde commence, très loin de ce qu’elle imaginait. La cour est pleine de danger, de rumeurs et de règles qu’elle ne maîtrise pas.
Mais, sa plus grande erreur, est de succomber au regard aussi noir que la nuit de lord Thadeus Blackmorgan…

Augustin, lui, a toujours mené une existence fastueuse et insouciante, résigné à subir en parallèle l’écrasante emprise de sa mère, la reine Victoria au règne sans fin. Mais il tombe de haut quand, pour la première fois, il refuse de se conformer à ses plans aussi tortueux que mystérieux. Car, s’il est un prince dont la fonction n’est que titre, c’est lui. Le jeune homme devra résister et fuir pour s’affranchir du joug de la souveraine et embrasser sa destinée.
Une rencontre qui pourrait bien tout bouleverser… mais la liberté ne s’obtient jamais sans sacrifice.

Christine Danse

Field Journal of Jonathan Orms, 1893En route to polite exile in the Galapagos Islands (field work, to quote the dean of my university), I have found myself marooned on a deserted tropical paradise. Deserted, that is, except for my savior, a mysterious American called Marcus. He is an inventor-and the proof of his greatness is the marvelous new clockwork arm he has created to replace the unsightly one that was ruined in my shipboard mishap.Marcus has a truly brilliant mind and the gentlest hands, which cause me to quiver in an unfamiliar but rather pleasant way. Surely it is only my craving for human companionship that draws me to this man, nothing more? He says a ship will pass this way in a few months, but I am welcome to stay as long as I like. The thought of leaving Marcus becomes more untenable with each passing day, though staying would be fatal to my career...28,000 words

As Charlie and Lincoln’s lives settle into a harmonious pattern, a new threat arises that could have far reaching effects for the royal family and Lincoln’s parents.

When a seer warns the Prince of Wales that his life is in danger, only Charlie and Lincoln take her seriously. After all, what sensible person would believe a gypsy who claims the danger will come in the form of the prince's dead father?

A meeting at the palace sets them on a path that takes Charlie back to her old haunts in the London slums, on the hunt for a man who can change his appearance.

At the request of Lady Harcourt, Charlie and Lincoln begin searching for her missing stepson. Still recovering from her ordeal at the hands of a diabolical villain, Charlie is supposed to be resting. But resting is dull, so she throws herself into the task at hand, much to Lincoln's frustration.

The search leads them down a dark path littered with family secrets and titillating scandal. Using her necromancy to expose those secrets, Charlie unwittingly raises a spirit with the power to override her control. With a dead body on the loose in London, Charlie and Lincoln must work together to send it back before havoc is unleashed, and the committee members find out.

Because if they do, they will have more ammunition in their fight to send Charlie away from her home and everyone she loves.

How To Marry A Werewolf

★ 4.19

Gail Carriger

Guilty of an indiscretion? Time to marry a werewolf.

WEREWOLVES

The monsters left Faith ruined in the eyes of society, so now they’re her only option. Rejected by her family, Faith crosses the Atlantic, looking for a marriage of convenience and revenge.

But things are done differently in London. Werewolves are civilized. At least they pretend to be.

AMERICANS

Backward heathens with no culture, Major Channing has never had time for any of them. But there’s something special about Faith. Channing finds himself fighting to prove himself and defend his species. But this werewolf has good reason not to trust human women.

Even if they learn to love, can either of them forgive?

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Parasol Protectorate series comes a stand alone romance set in the same universe. Look out for appearances from favorite characters and the serious consequences of unwarranted geology.

A Note On Chronology

The Claw & Courtship novellas can be read in any order. This book can be enjoyed without having read any of Gail’s other works. Set in the spring of 1895 this story occurs after events chronicled in Romancing the Werewolf.

More?
This story is contemporaneous with events at the beginning of Reticence (final Custard Protocol book). Channing is first introduced to readers in the second Parasol Protectorate book, Changeless. He also appears briefly in Romancing the Inventor.

Rules for Ruin

★ 4.03

Mimi Matthews

No one betrays the Academy. But now Euphemia must decide: break the rules for her enemy, or let the rules break her heart.

On the outskirts of London sits a seemingly innocuous institution with a secretive aim—train young women to distract, disrupt, and discredit the patriarchy. Outraged by a powerful politician’s systematic attack on women’s rights, the Academy summons its brightest—and most bitter—pupil to infiltrate the odious man’s inner circle. A deal is struck: bring down the viscount, and Miss Euphemia Flite will finally earn her freedom.

But betting shop owner Gabriel Royce has other plans. The viscount is the perfect pawn to insulate Gabriel’s underworld empire from government interference. He’s not about to let some crinoline-clad miss destroy his carefully constructed enterprise—no matter how captivating he finds her threats.

From the rookeries of St. Giles to the ballrooms of Mayfair, Euphemia and Gabriel engage in a battle of wits and wills that’s complicated by a blossoming desire. Soon Euphemia realizes it’s not the broken promises to her Academy sisters she should fear. . . . It’s the danger to her heart.

With her life once again in danger, she and Lincoln are forced together to catch the murderer and bring calm to Lichfield. But how can there be calm when the killer threatens everyone dear to Charlie?
