Dear Lady Yvaine of Moray, It is with no great regret that Her Majesty informs you that after the unfortunate fencing incident with Lord Tyler, the stabbing of the younger Lord of Malay with a hat pin, and finally, the brawl with the Ladies Banning (including the Dowager), it is Her decree that you shall attend The Monsters Ball, and there you will find among them a husband to match your harridan, monstrous nature. Lady Yvaine of Moray maintains that the above incidents were not entirely her fault. She was cursed, you see. Not to be a hat pin weilding menace-although that is a plus in her book- but to be claimed by a low level demon who has bedeviled her since childhood. Her only way out: marry someone more villainous, who will send the fiend scurrying with his tail between his legs. Well, Lady Yvaine has never been one for half measures. So she sets her cap for the most villainous monster of them all. The grotesque Earl of Evernight, an impossibly large, horned beast with wings, claws, and a devil's tail. He's ruled his lands without question for a lifetime, but now the fates have come calling. To keep his claim on Evernight, he must marry and produce an heir. Mael will take her body and soul for his own, but didn't count on her heart. He's decided demons don't love, but Yvaine has never been one to back down from a challenge. This Season, place your bets at White's: Will this be a match made in Hell, or an epic love to defy even the stars (and Her Most Irritated Majesty)? This story is a stand alone novella-length novel set in the shared world of The Monsters Ball.

"It's the apocalypse. Aphrodite has broken up with Ares and this time, she means it. While she claims to have meant it during the Trojan War, this time is different. This time is forever. While nursing his broken heart (like any legit God of War) with drink, battle, and wenching - he wenches the wrong wench. His best friend, Morrigan. This doesn't fit at all with his mantra, "All is fair in love and war." Because it's not fair that his ride or die bro isn't a bro at all, but a curvy, sexy, woman. Now that he's touched her, tasted her, he doesn't know if it's love or war. She's a Goddess of War herself and while this is one campaign she plans to win, happily ever after might just be the spoils."--

"The Desperate Crew is back with a romp through resort island, Avalon. Aphrodite convinces Artemis it's past time for her to get her V-card punched. Artemis doesn't want any messy entanglements, has a taste for bad boys, and the sexy Mordred Le Fey fits the bill. Too bad he's cursed by the Lady of the Lake. Aphrodite has had her fill of Love being used as a curse and decides to give Vivienne her comeuppance. She ends up with trials of her own when all she wanted was a vacation. Secretly, Vivienne thinks she deserves to be punished because she's been in love with Arthur since she handed him Excalibur and engineered the fall of Guinevere and Camelot. Gwen's marriage to Lancelot has been in name only since 1912--a fact that's only made Avalon's resident evil enchantress, Morgan Le Fey, too happy. Come along for the ride as these goddesses take control of their Fate (or so they think) and find their Happily Ever Afters."--Provided by publisher.
