Sorcerer Rising (Virgil McDane Series Book 1) by E. Nathan Sisk

You go and burn down one little world, and everyone gets upset.

Virgil McDane was a powerful Wizard, an explorer, scholar, and soldier. A member of the Wizard’s Guild, he had spent most his life traversing the Aetherial edges of reality, where mind and matter become one and the same, delving into the mist to extract wonders great and small.

One mistake later and he was cast from the Guild. Stripped of his magic, he finds himself locked out of his own mind, struggling just to pay his rent. Now, as a Sorcerer, his education stolen, his magic in shambles, he takes any job he can get, no matter the risk and no matter who’s asking.

With Virgil’s prospects dwindling, Cyrus Aberland appears like a rope to a drowning man. He is one of the wealthiest men in the world and his fortune has been earned through inventions that rival even the greatest achievements of the wise ones. He has an axe to grind, an expedition to fund, and he knows just the man to lead it if he wants to piss off the Guild.

The job?

The Wizards call it the Arcus. Everyone else just calls it the Rainbow.

After centuries of sudden appearances, striking like lightning in the dark, disappearing just as quickly, it has appeared outside Mare City. The masses have assembled to find its source, to chase its legend, the wealth and power promised at Rainbow’s end.

Join Virgil on this action-packed journey as he guides a group of explorers through a world half-formed, its edges raw and malleable, filled with dangers formed from memory and thought. Journey with him as he struggles to protect both them and himself, endeavors to unwind the mystery of the Rainbow, and ultimately seeks to reclaim the power that was once at his fingertips.

If You Could See What I See by Cathy Lamb

A widow finds solace working in her family’s lingerie shop in this heartwarming novel by the author of A Different Kind of Normal.

For decades, the women in Meggie O’Rourke’s family have run Lace, Satin, and Baubles, a lingerie business that specializes in creations as exquisitely pretty as they are practical. The dynamic in Meggie’s family, however, is perpetually dysfunctional. In fact, if Meggie weren’t being summoned back to Portland, Oregon, by her grandmother, she’d be inclined to stay away all together.

Since her husband’s death a year ago, Meggie’s emotions have been in constant flux, and so has her career as a documentary filmmaker. Finding ways to keep the family business afloat—and dealing with her squabbling sister and cousin—will at least give her a temporary focus. To draw customers to their website, Meggie decides to interview relatives and employees about their first bras and favorite lingerie. She envisions something flip and funny, but the confessions that emerge are unexpectedly poignant. There are stories of first loves and aching regrets, passionate mistakes and surprising rendezvous. And as the revelations illuminate her family’s past, Meggie begins to find her own way forward.

With warmth and unflinching humor, If You Could See What I See explores the tender truths we keep close—and what can happen when we find the courage to bare them to the world.

The Contrary Debutanteby Emily E K Murdoch

Emerald de Petras will not get married, and her rambunctious family cannot make her.

The definition of a wallflower, Emerald hates Society: all those people looking at her, judging her, pointing and gossiping about her family. She won’t have it, and she’ll never marry and provoke even more tittle tattle.

She is hardly a debutante anymore, however, and her contrary ways forces her mother to make a desperate agreement. Emerald will attend ten more balls this Season…and then no more. She’ll be freed from her obligation to her family to marry, and that will be an end to it.

Delighted to find a way out, it was rather inconvenient that Robert Ainsworth, Marquis of Swindmore, decided she was a challenge.

After all, what recently divorced man didn’t want a challenge?

Following a humiliating divorce, he’s just about managed to keep quiet. Robert sees something in Emerald that no one else does. Wallflower, yes—but there’s something deep and passionate in those shy green eyes.

As Emerald tries to fight the growing attraction she knows can go nowhere, and Robert begins to realize his teasing flirtation is becoming so much more, there’ll be scandal despite both their best efforts before long.

Can a contrary debutante with no wish to marry and a Marquis with no faith left in love find something truly special?

This full length novel is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after, no cliffhangers, and is part of a series that can be read in any order, but is best enjoyed in sequence.

Lady Amelia Takes a Loverby Sofie Darling

The last thing Lady Amelia Windermere needs is another family scandal. But how can she possibly resist the wild, passionate Duke of Ripon?

Welcome to book 1 in the electrifying new series Windermeres in Love by bestselling and award-winning author Sofie Darling.

A proper English lady…

A little time in beautiful Italy is just what Lady Amelia Windermere and her eccentric family need while their latest scandal dies down. Amelia is hard at work on their triumphant return to London society when she meets Lord Tristan Carteret, Duke of Ripon, a sculptor who is too wild for any proper lady.

Meets a dissolute Duke…

Tristan isn’t eager to let go of la dolce vita that he’s enjoyed in Florence—until he meets Amelia. She may appear to be one more uptight debutante, but he soon realizes that there’s a talented artist and a passionate woman just aching to emerge. If only she can forget what society says and concentrate on what she feels when she’s with him.

And that’s how Lady Amelia Takes a Lover…

Exploring their art leads to Amelia and Tristan exploring much more than stone or canvas. But Amelia knows that indulging her desire for the dissolute Duke comes with a price—more scandal! Tristan refuses to give up on the real Amelia just because of society’s rules, but can he sway her to make him her future?
