Claire Montgomery also has a unique relationship with death, mostly because she’s already dead. Technically, anyway. Claire is a vampire, and she’s been assigned by the Veil to help Elise master her rare Death Oracle powers. At first, Elise is reluctant to work with a vampire, but when she predicts a teacher’s imminent murder, she’s determined to stop the violent death, even if it means sacrificing her own future to secure Claire’s help. The trouble is, Claire and Elise aren’t the only paranormals in town—a killer is stalking the streets, and Claire can’t seem to shake the pull she feels toward Elise, a romance that could upend the Veil’s mission. But as Elise and Claire grow closer, Elise begins to wonder—can she really trust someone tasked with securing her loyalty? Someone who could so easily kill her? Someone who might hold the key to unraveling her brother’s mysterious death?

I’m in love with three men. I’m just not sure if they’re a dream come true or my worst nightmare. It began with hearing voices – just another step on my steady descent into madness.

They called themselves Dreamwalkers and told me they were hunting the monster attacking all the people around me. They won’t leave me alone. I’m not sure I want them too. But am I the monster they’re after? Or are we all in worse danger than I ever could’ve imagined?

A young Fae would be cursed by the moon, receiving the darkest marking of all—the Void Signature—and leading an army of supernaturals to destroy the world. In order to avoid this, the Angels descended upon the United States. They separated the supernaturals, creating magical borders within the country, upheld by the power the leaders of each mystical race wielded. Zai Tyren lives in the hidden Fae city of Crestfell, just outside of Orlando, Florida. He is a young senior doing what any other teenager is doing—looking forward to prom, graduation, and most notably, his eighteenth birthday. The day he’ll finally get his Fae signature, a small pictograph provided to all Fae to let them know which element they are most in tune with. What he certainly doesn’t expect, is to receive the mark of the Void Fae. The one no one wants. A demonic signature that will bring about the end of all supernaturals. Suddenly, Zai’s life is turned upside down, and the beings he once considered friends and family turn on him, demanding his death for the greater good of the supernaturals. Except, there is no kinder soul than his; he would never do what the Void Fae is prophesied to do.
Hunted by the High Fae, the Platinum Dragons who govern all mystical races, and the Angels who swore to protect all magical borders, Zai will have no choice but to escape, unravel the prophecy, and figure out how to save the world from himself… or save himself from the world. Amazon KU

With Camden in a magical coma, Morough will stop at nothing to see his charge more comfortable living as his true self once he awakens. When Sol’kyr, worried that Camden hates him for taking him out of the human world, suggests they recover Camden’s cat to help with the transition, Morough jumps at the chance to help, and to spend time with his friends and bodyguard. Sol’kyr has always been on the fringes of others’ happy families, never truly accepted thanks to his dark past. But he has his friendship with Morough, which gives him meaning even when he isn’t needed to protect the crown prince. It’s almost enough to keep the ever-present sadness mental trauma at bay, but not always. When three elves who have no idea how the human world works try to navigate it on their own in search of one tiny kitten, anything that can go wrong, will. But in between the laughter and misadventure, there are tears and understandings long overdue. Their quest might have begun because of Camden, but if they can succeed, there might be enough healing to share with a lonely bodyguard who never thought he’d be worthy. Part of the Adradis Rising Universe, Sol’s Redemption shows us that if a mission of seemingly minor consequence can change the world for one person, it’s worth it in the end.

VS: THe next book on my backlist tour is STAR CRUISE MAROONED, which was one of my biggest sellers ever. It’s the first book in the STAR CRUISE series, in terms of the timeline and is where we meet Meg and Red, before they were a couple and before they were on the Nebula Zephyr.
The blurb: Meg Antille works long hours on the interstellar cruise ship Far Horizon so she can send credits home to her family. Working hard to earn a promotion to a better post (and better pay), Meg has no time for romance.
Former Special Forces soldier Red Thomsill only took the berth on the Far Horizon in hopes of getting to know Meg better, but so far she’s kept him at a polite distance. A scheduled stopover on the idyllic beach of a nature preserve planet may be his last chance to impress the girl.
But when one of the passengers is attacked by a wild animal it becomes clear that conditions on the lushly forested Dantaralon aren’t as advertised – the ranger station is deserted, the defensive perimeter is down…and then the Far Horizon’s shuttle abruptly leaves without any of them.
Marooned on the dangerous outback world, romance is the least of their concerns, and yet Meg and Red cannot help being drawn to each other once they see how well they work together. But can they survive long enough to see their romance through? Or will the wild alien planet defeat them, ending their romance and their lives before anything can really begin?

LINKS TO RECENT NEW RELEASES POSTS from Veronica:
“New” is generally plus or minus a week or two. I try to catch up on ones I missed in recent months. And I may mention ‘special items’.
I do NOT cover every single new release in SFR/FantasyR/PNR. I never have. That would be an impossible task for any human! I assemble my list by hand every week based on various informal inputs, and I do curate the list to some extent…
Some authors aren’t in KU but still don’t list books with Apple or other platforms. This report is very time consuming to prepare so I’ve always had to limit myself and cannot go and look up every book on all the platforms. If an author gives me their other buy links, I include them here but generally I develop the post on my own, not from author-supplied information. I curate and prepare this post individually every week to help connect readers/books/authors and I have to be very careful not to give it so much time as an activity that I don’t write my own novels! Thanks for the feedback and happy reading!
I check and verify all the buy links at the time I create the post but after that I’m not responsible.
