ramblingmads

Where books are borrowed, and friendships are forged…

When her beloved grandfather dies, Ana Meštrović buys a catamaran in his memory, which she names Dida Krila – Grandad’s Wings.

For the summer months, it will be transformed into a travelling library, delivering books to children living across the Croatian islands.

Joined by crew members Natali, a young mechanic afraid of her own shadow, and Lloyd, an older widower who needs a fresh start, the newly-formed trio all have their own reasons for needing the floating library to be a success.

Embarking on an adventure that will change them for good, they each discover that a new chapter is only a boat ride away…

Publication Dates – 16th January 2026 (ebook) 29th January 2026 (paperback)

Eva Glyn writes escapist relationship-driven fiction with a kernel of truth at its heart. She loves to travel and finds inspiration in beautiful places and the stories they hide.

Set mainly in Croatia, her contemporary stories are more about friendship than romance, the coming together of people through shared interests, and the opportunity to make fresh starts in their lives. A love of books is a common theme too, so her publisher, One More Chapter, has christened them the Bookish Escapes collection which currently includes The Dubrovnik Book Club, and The Santorini Writing Retreat, with The Croatian Island Library to be published in January 2026.

In addition Eva has written two Second World War dual timeline romances, An Island of Secrets and The Collaborator’s Daughter, and a new beginnings novel entitled The Olive Grove. All are set in Croatian, a country she loves.

Although she considers herself Welsh, Eva lives in Cornwall with the man she met and fell in love with more than thirty years ago. She also writes as Jane Cable.

ramblingmads

A world on the brink of war. One woman whose courage could change everything.

Paris, 1938. As the world teeters on the edge of war, Lady Pamela More knows her latest assignment is her deadliest yet.
Her days as a London society columnist are merely a cover. She must infiltrate the decadent Parisian circles of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor as they openly cavort with fascists and voice dangerous Nazi sympathies.

The nation’s security could be compromised — and Lady Pamela must uncover what, or whom, they might betray.
In the glittering salons of Paris, amidst the clink of champagne glasses and careless gossip, dark allegiances fester. The Windsors are charming — and cunning — and Pamela walks a delicate line between loyalty and deception.

But as she steps back into a life of shadows, old temptations resurface, including charismatic American Sid White, whose presence reawakens more than just memories.

Surrounded by spies, traitors and the ghosts of her past, Lady Pamela must decide: how far is she willing to go to protect a country that may never thank her before the city falls to the Nazis?

Originally from Chicago, Sarah Sigal works across theatre, film and fiction. She has a BA in Theatre Arts and English Literature from Gettysburg College and an MA in Writing for Performance and a PhD in Theatre and Performance, both from Goldsmiths College University of London. She teaches at a number of universities across the UK and is the author of WRITING IN COLLABORATIVE THEATRE-MAKING (Bloomsbury, 2016), as well as numerous plays and 2 short films. THE SOCIALITE SPY (Lume Books, 2023) is her first novel, the first in a series about the lead character, the socialite spy herself–Lady Pamela More.
She lives in London.

Fires of the Forsaken

She just wanted a gosh-darn pizza. The apocalypse had other ideas.

Addie did not have “getting plucked from the 21st century and thrown into the apocalypse” on her “things to do after work” checklist. Yet here she is, trapped in the hellscape known as Sakar–a world torn apart by a Celestial war. Now she’s dodging soulless Wraiths, getting chased by venomous horses, and trying her darndest to avoid a meltdown.

Thankfully, Cheriour, the gruff and grumpy commander of the human army takes her under his wing. He’s blunt, brutal, and socially awkward. Totally not Addie’s type.

So why does she find him so infuriatingly attractive?

As Addie’s connection with Cheriour grows so does the danger. Wraiths threaten to eliminate the last dregs of humanity and secrets about Addie’s past are about to surface that might just make her the key to saving everything… or destroying it.

Darkly thrilling and laced with biting humor, Fires of the Forsaken is perfect for fans of Game of Thrones, Deadpool and Supernatural.

Ashes of the Earth

Earth’s last hope has anxiety, a lethal power, and absolutely no idea what she’s doing.

Addie is having a colossally bad year. She’s stuck in a bullshit biblical war, her friends keep dying, and her newfound power might be slowly eating her alive.

At least she has Cheriour, the gruff, battle-scarred commander of the human army, who is secretly a teddy bear hiding beneath a grumpy face. But even their budding relationship is threatened as the war rages.

With Wraiths scavenging the ailing country of Sakar, and the Celestials tightening their grip, Addie must lead a desperate mission to save what’s left of this world. But the deeper she dives into the secrets of Sakar—and the reason she was brought here—the more she realizes some truths should stay buried.

Caught between a web of lies and her need to be everyone’s saviour, Tiadola must renounce more than her pride in order to see the continent safe. The search for her lover intertwines with the one of finding the god’s resting place.

Resilient and hopeful, can she be the one to liberate the world from millennia of injustices? In hope lies the power, and she is nothing if not hopeful.

Cover Reveal: The Crimson Princess – Zoey Voss

  • Vampires,

  • She just got her full powers
  • She’s promised to another (no triangle)

For the rulers of Ravengale, there is only us and them…until the rule of law becomes the path to destruction.

As princess of Ravengale, Satima is bound by her father’s rule to sit back as others compete in the Challenge and watch the champions travel to the human realm to shelter the innocents from the monsters of the Third World. But the Book of Life dictates a path for her that defies the laws of Ravengale and she temporarily vacates her throne to fight for humanity, a choice that will change the destiny of her world and beyond.

As Satima is thrust into a tragic battle, death will touch her in the most intimate of ways, driving her into the path of her father’s enemy, the ancient and powerful vampire king. Toren is as gorgeous as he is a ruthless leader, and despite Satima’s caution, the vampire makes her blood run hot, and her body hotter. But in the throes of passion, there is a dark history between their worlds, a darker one between Toren and her father. One wrong move, and everything Satima has known and loved will be shattered.

In the vein of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Reign where the princess is a warrior, the fae are inconsequential, zombies are real, and vampires and druids are enemies of the court. That is until one vampire, the king himself, seduces the princess into risking all for him.

After ten years of attempting to reconstruct that night’s confusing events, she is desperate to clear her name and learn the truth. But just as she’s about to give up, a miracle occurs—her sentence is overturned.

Let loose on the streets, Audrey hunts for the killer—and his voice in her mind taunts her. Why he’s stalking her is a mystery, and her obsession draws her into the heart of darkness. With her sanity dancing on a razor’s edge, another telepathic ensnares her. He, too, is looking for the killer, and they form a tenuous alliance.

But things are not what they seem.

Whisked away to a distant moon where telepathic power is sought after, Audrey quickly becomes tangled in a war that was never hers to fight—and her hunt for redemption falters. Soon, she must choose between finding peace or becoming the villain before death finds her first.

DREAM IN THE ASH is a genre-bending tale that is darkly ambitious in blending the future and fantasy. It features a slow-burn romance while following a woman’s descent into madness in the brutal years following a space dictatorship takeover and its turbulent aftermath.

Triggers: Explicit sex (consensual), explicit language, and violence/gore (murder, executions)
