ramblingmads

We’re so proud to present this gorgeous cover for Enola M. Douglas’s June release, Whisked Away!

Whisked Away (Jewels of the Nine Kingdoms #1)

Expected Publication Date: June 12, 2025

Genre: Romantic Fantasy/ Why Choose

Escape doesn’t always mean freedom…

When Princess Reiyana unexpectedly presents as an Omega at age twenty, her future is no longer her own. Once a Beta with dreams of love and adventure, she is now a political prize—coveted by Alphas across the Nine Kingdoms.

But two half-brothers change everything.

Prince Kaelendrin and Prince Alarik of Asadia enter the royal tournament to claim her hand. Their strength and charm awaken something forbidden within Reiyana, unraveling not only her carefully guarded heart but also the beliefs she’s clung to her entire life.

Determined to reclaim control of her fate, Reiyana plots her escape. But betrayal leaves her stranded in a world where power is reserved for the chosen few—and no position is more perilous than that of an Omega. Now, she must navigate dangerous alliances, confront hidden truths, and embrace the desires she’s long denied—before her destiny is decided for her.

Whisked Away is a why-choose omegaverse romantasy filled with secrets, power struggles, and slow-building passion. It is Book One in the Jewels of the Nine Kingdoms series.

Note: While this series explores shared love, there is no M/M romance between the brothers.

When Abby Webber went on an Irish vacation, it was to spend time with her bestie, see a few castles, and drink Guinness. She didn’t expect to get marked for death by the Dullahan, nor that Erimon, the sexy biker who saved her life, would be an immortal warrior Druid. He gave her an essential part of his power, awakening her true purpose—to end the Dullahan’s chaos cycle for good.

Abby, still marked, and with the blood moon on the horizon heightening Death’s power, must band together with old friends and new to save herself and future generations from his wrath. There’s only one problem: the Dullahan isn’t working alone this time. Will Abby’s untapped magic and the indestructible eternal bond she’s formed with Erimon be enough to stop the ravenous Celtic death god? Or will failing to control her new powers doom them for eternity?

ramblingmads

Welcome to the ARC tour for the next book in the Whispers of Dust & Darkness, Every Thread of Light by Sarah Zimm!

Every Thread of Light: An Epic Dark Fantasy Romance (Whispers of Dust & Darkness Book 2)

Expected Publication Date: March 25, 2025

Genre: Dark Fantasy Romance

In the kingdom of Magus, war and winter reign.

The thrilling dark fantasy romance sequel to Every Dark Shadow, about a realm where magic-born fight for freedom against the monarchy and the last living Descendant of her god line faces an alliance with her enemy to save them. Perfect for fans of fantasy books like Six of Crows and A Game of Thrones, as well as readers who love epic fantasy worlds filled with secrets, bargains, and betrayal.

In the Kingdom of Magus, Ophelia Dannan’s magic has reawakened, but at dire costs. Though she’s inherited the powers of a goddess, she’s haunted by the events in Wythe and the desperate choices she made to save the lives of her people.

As war breaks out, she and Falcon lick their wounds in the Underbelly, waiting for word on Hart and Rune. There, Ophelia plots to end the centuries-old battle for the throne by unearthing and destroying three elusive primordial relics—but she isn’t the only one who seeks them. If the Gray King retrieves the instruments first, the magic-born will rot in endless servitude, and if the relics fall into the Darkwielder’s hands, his vengeance may obliterate every mortal.

To save Magus from ruin, Ophelia finds herself making a bargain with a dangerous enemy—one that plunges her into a harrowing game of trust, politics, and dark secrets. To win, she’ll have to master her horrifying magic, mend her shattered soul, and decide how far she’ll go to shape her fate—or she and her kingdom will be destined for destruction.

In a war between gods and monarchs, one will rise.

In an alternate 2025, our world is built on the backs of slaves. Louisa is the daughter of the enemy who’s become my master, and I’m not even allowed to look at her, let alone touch her.
But I’ve already done way more than that. By day, they make me scrub floors and weed the garden. By night, I ignite her in dark basements and secret rooms.
She used to think slaves weren’t people, but I’ve opened her eyes to the horror of her world, and there’s no going back.
But I’m here on a mission to find my sister. And Louisa is about to discover that when I charmed my way into her bed, it wasn’t just because I wanted her. It was because I wanted something from her.
But now? I do want her. Forever, preferably. But the world thinks I belong in a cage, and I’ve got new enemies determined to put me in one. They’re plotting to blow our secret right out of the water. In this snake pit, neither of us knows who to trust.
But when they go after Louisa, I’ll prove that even though I’m a slave, she belongs to me in every way that matters — even if it costs me everything I’ve fought for.
NEVER BOUND, book 2 in a dark dystopian forbidden romance series THE UNCHAINED, picks up where Never Broken left off. The books must be read in order. Never Bound ends on a hard cliffhanger and picks up in Never Lost, scheduled for release in summer 2025. Together, all three books form a complete arc with a guaranteed HEA.

  • Secret Societies
  • Cinnamon Roll MMC
  • Dual Timeline
  • Star-crossed Lovers

  • Academia Setting

A hidden world of magic lurks in the shadows of history.

Nora is gunning for a promotion at The Chicago Field Museum. The discovery of two ancient Greek weapons unlike any she’s seen before might be her big break—but the artifacts are more than they seem, and the secrets they hold could upend Nora’s world completely.

Trying to uncover their history, Nora enlists the help of professor of ancient languages, Dr. Adam Scott, an undeniably handsome man of intrigue. Nora finds herself drawn to the professor, who seems to be overflowing with charm—and secrets. Trying to uncover what he’s hiding, Nora discovers that Adam is actually an immortal sorcerer and a member of a secret society that has been in hiding since the days of the Greek Empire.

When Nora’s work draws the attention of the Shadow, a powerful force that feeds off fear and negative emotions, she finds herself thrust into a perilous world of myths and monsters. Complicating things further is her undeniable desire for Adam and the feeling that he may be concealing more than his status as an immortal sorcerer. Now it’s not just Nora’s job on the line as she races to uncover the mysteries of the past—it’s her life.

This book was previously published under the title Spears and Shadows. This new version has significant additions and has been freshly edited to provide an expanded story and enhanced reading experience.
