This episode does KNOT disappoint! Get it?

A Human hybrid and an Alpha Were claw against the bonds of fate in the highly anticipated companion novel to the Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller Bride.

Serena Paris is orphaned, pack-less, and one of a kind. Coming forward as the first Human-Were hybrid was supposed to heal a centuries-long rift between species. Instead, it made her a target, prey to the ruthless political machinations between Weres, Vampyres, and Humans. With her enemies closing in on her, she has only one option left - if he'll have her.

As Alpha of the Northwest pack, Koen Alexander commands obedience. His authority is so absolute, only a fool would threaten his mate. It doesn't matter if Serena doesn't reciprocate his feelings, nothing will stop him from keeping her safe.

But power-hungry Vampyres and Weres are not the only threats chasing Serena. Sooner or later, her past is bound to catch up with her - and Koen might be the only thing standing between her and total annihilation...

This week we finally sit down for our full spoilers, deep dive episode of Daughter of Stone by our very own B! Thank you to those who submitted questions and theories for this episode - it was so so useful!

Born into a family blessed by the gods, for years, Non believed she was powerless.

After failing her initiation ceremony, Non is left with nothing. No power, no friends, and she becomes her family’s greatest disappointment. But one night of heavy drinking and heartbreak changes everything.

Non is thrust back into a world she thought she’d left behind. Forced to reconnect with her estranged grandmother and enter a series of deadly trials to prove her worth as a vassal to the gods, Non discovers that her power is unlike any other. There’s a darkness inside that threatens to consume her.

Not one to do things by halves, Non finds herself drawn to a rival coven’s dangerously charming and very off-limits second-in-command. Will she fall in line and follow the path of light set out by her grandmother? Or will she let darkness prevail?

Inspired by Welsh Mythology and Legends, Daughter of Stone is a story of light/dark magic, found family, and forbidden romance.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone! What better way to get in the holiday spirit with some epic fantasy and heartbreak!

Duty. Blood. Honor. Power.
Saeris Fane doesn’t want power. The very last thing she needs is her name whispered on an entire court’s lips, but now that she’s been crowned queen of the Blood Court, she’s discovering that a queen’s life is not her own. A heavy weight rests upon her shoulders. Her ward—and her brother—need her back in her homeland…but the changes that have strengthened Saeris have also made her weak. Born under blazing suns, Saeris will surely die if she makes her way home through the Quicksilver. Which means that, once again, she must send someone else in her stead...

“Keep your mouth shut. Stick to the shadows. And for the love of all seven Gods, do NOT crack any jokes.”

Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate has defeated armies and survived all manner of horrors, but traveling back to Zilvaren with Carrion Swift might just be the death of him. The male just will not shut up. Hidden dangers await them down the narrow alleyways of the Silver City. Unfolding secrets pose impossible threats. Fisher must wrangle the smuggler and accomplish his goals quickly if he wants to see his mate again.

A darkness falls across Yvelia. The realm and their friends are in danger. Together, Saeris and Fisher will pass through fire and brimstone to save them.
