Book Description
Brave Medraut is a fitting heir to the throne—but he can never be king—in this fantasy retelling of the legend of Mordred from the author of Code Name Verity. Medraut is the eldest son of High King Artos, and would-be heir to the British throne—if not for an unfortunate circumstance of birth. Instead, his weak and unskilled half-brother, Lleu, is chosen as successor. Medraut cannot bear the thought of being ruled by the boy who has taken what he believes is rightfully his. Consumed by jealousy, he turns to Morgause, the high king’s treacherous sister, who exploits Medraut’s shame and plots to take over the throne. But when Medraut discovers Lleu’s inner strength and goodness, he finds his battle is not just with the kingdom, but with the demons inside himself. Now he must choose where his allegiances truly lie. Perfect for readers of Robin McKinley and Jane Yolen, The Winter Prince is an “engrossing” novel that “fantasy lovers and devotees of Arthurian legends will enjoy,” from an author who has won honors ranging from the Carnegie Medal to the Edgar Award (Booklist). This ebook features an illustrated biography of Elizabeth Wein including rare images from the author’s personal collection.

Book Description
From award-winning author Lisa Kumar comes a new fantasy romance series with dashes of fairytale flair and hints of Bridgerton. In this tale, an ice-cold, cursed fae prince meets his match in a human witch who can't control her magic. Ellohen, the Prince Regent of the Holly Court, has been cursed to feel no emotion for longer than a moment. His kingdom has fallen under the icy pall of coldness. To break the spell, he has to find a female who is capable of loving him. He finds her. She’s human and a dismal witch. Worse, she’s much too sunny and has the audacity to make him feel. It’s much too soon for that. Jane, the impoverished daughter of a squire, never thought she’d be fated to anyone, let alone an otherworldly fae prince. Too bad he's emotionally constipated. Literally. He believes that she can break the spell, but she has huge doubts. Sure, he’s handsome and makes her heart wildly thud. However, most of the time, a wall has more emotional depth. Still, to aid him, she finds herself fighting both her family and his enemies. Both Ellohen and Jane will find out that love makes people do the oddest things—and that they’re no exception. This is the first book in the Brides of the Fae series and contains adult content and language (18+). This series is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Grace Draven, and Elise Kova and for readers who love fae/human romances.

Book Description
The thrilling family saga of five unforgettable women who remade Europe. From the great courts, glittering palaces, and war-ravaged battlefields of the seventeenth century comes the story of four spirited sisters and their glamorous mother, Elizabeth Stuart, granddaughter of the martyred Mary, Queen of Scots. Upon her father's ascension to the illustrious throne of England, Elizabeth Stuart was suddenly thrust from the poverty of unruly Scotland into the fairytale existence of a princess of great wealth and splendor. When she was married at sixteen to a German count far below her rank, it was with the understanding that her father would help her husband achieve the kingship of Bohemia. The terrible betrayal of this commitment would ruin "the Winter Queen," as Elizabeth would forever be known, imperil the lives of those she loved and launch a war that would last for thirty years. Forced into exile, the Winter Queen and her family found refuge in Holland, where the glorious art and culture of the Dutch Golden Age indelibly shaped her daughters' lives. Her eldest, Princess Elizabeth, became a scholar who earned the respect and friendship of the philosopher René Descartes. Louisa was a gifted painter whose engaging manner and appealing looks provoked heartache and scandal. Beautiful Henrietta Maria would be the only sister to marry into royalty, although at great cost. But it was the youngest, Sophia, a heroine in the tradition of a Jane Austen novel, whose ready wit and good-natured common sense masked immense strength of character, who fulfilled the promise of her great-grandmother Mary and reshaped the British monarchy, a legacy that endures to this day. Brilliantly researched and captivatingly written, filled with danger, treachery, and adventure but also love, courage, and humor, Daughters of the Winter Queen follows the lives of five remarkable women who, by refusing to surrender to adversity, changed the course of history.
