Romance Historical | Romance Paranormal

Dear Miss Margaret Phillips, at the bequest of your uncle sir Robert Bishop, the Baron of Westlap, your attendance is requested for the season. However, on account of your undisciplined rearing, fascination with the otherworldly, and ruined status for matrimonial union, Her Majesty is in agreement with your uncle but has deemed you of unsuitable prospects. With no offered dowry, and no reputation of worth, your attendance is hereby directed to The Monsters Ball.


Ruined and shipped off to live with her mother’s relations in London, Maggie Phillips faces the immediate prospect of living in shame as the poor relation in her uncle’s house. Her mother wants to make a lady of her by setting her up with a proper marriage but Maggie desires nothing of the sort, nor is she willing to trust another man again. The only solution is to ruin herself thoroughly abroad, and what better place to do it than the Monster’s Ball! But that means searching for the proper scoundrel to carry out the deed. The Marquis of Sheradeen Depths is certainly not that. Despite her best intentions, his haunting allure draws her to him whenever he’s nearby. Can she dare to risk everything for love, or will her charade mean sacrificing her heart?

Lord Thrane Vaskanth has little hope of finding his “songbound” among the land dwellers, and certainly not at the ball his father insisted he attend. With his first rut upon him, however, he has little choice left but to choose a human bride and surrender his expectation of a future with a cherished songbound mate. Until he finds his destiny in the lovely Miss Margaret Phillips, and no amount of occult mysteries or dangers shall stop him from wooing and claiming her. With one’s songbound, one kiss will never be enough.
