Publisher Description

Prohibition ended on December 5, 1933. But just because alcohol is legal doesn’t mean it’s easy to find. Anna Olsen wants her sister to have all the best for her engagement party. And the best means champagne. Only scarcity thwarts her every attempt to find any. She knows where to find all she could ever want. But getting it? Not so easy. George Andrews appreciates his mentor trying to find him a bride. But none of the candidates at his mentor’s New Year’s Eve party intrigue him half as much as the woman he catches sneaking around the back corridors, looking for the wine cellar. But what links her to the man like a father to him? “Long Night’s Moon”, a short story of romance with a little crime, set in post-Prohibition Minnesota.

Rhiow seems a perfectly ordinary New York City cat. Or so her humans think--but she is much more than she appears. With her partners Saash and Urruah, she collaborates with human wizards, protecting the earth from dark forces and helping to maintain the network of magical gateways between different realities.

An addictive fantasy romance from TikTok sensation Piper CJ, now newly revised and edited. Two orphans grow into powerful young women as they face countless threats to find their way back to each other. Farleigh is just an orphanage. At least, that's what the church would have the people believe, but beautiful orphans Nox and fae-touched Amaris know better. They are commodities for sale, available for purchase by the highest bidder. So when the madame of a notorious brothel in a far-off city offers a king's ransom to purchase Amaris, Nox ends up taking her place — while Amaris is drawn away to the mountains, home of mysterious assassins. Even as they take up new lives and identities, Nox and Amaris never forget one thing: they will stop at nothing to reunite. But the threat of war looms overhead, and the two are inevitably swept into a conflict between human and fae, magic and mundane. With strange new alliances, untested powers, and a bond that neither time nor distance could possibly break, the fate of the realms lies in the hands of two orphans — and the love they hold for each other.
