Blurb: 

The Princess Bride and Buffy the Vampire Slayer meet Sarah J. Maas’ Throne of Glass in this Breton-inspired fantasy debut brimming with wry humor, epic adventure, and an irresistible romance.

Lilac Trécesson is a prisoner in her parents’ castle after a most wicked secret was revealed on the eve of her fifteenth birthday. Years later, her Accession looms upon her father’s decision to abdicate, and between the riotous townsfolk and scheming noble bent on snatching her throne, she prepares for the worst… Until a letter arrives from The Witch of Lupine Grotto, containing a curious offer to banish her curse forever.

She begrudgingly trades her coronet for a cloak and ventures into the forest Brocéliande, only to find herself cornered by a bloodthirsty barkeep who demands her help in exchange for protection against the even deadlier forces of the woods.

With only the protection of her inherited dagger—and unsolicited help of the sardonic stranger who inserts himself on her quest—Lilac must find the impious enchantress and return in time to claim her crown. Pity the fool to underestimate the girl with subpar blade skills but the spite to make up for it.

This is the tale of a cursed princess,
A crestfallen killer,
The town that wants them to burn,
And the witch who can save them both.

Review Quotes: 

“Girl meets boy, girl turns out to be heir to the throne, boy turns out to be a centuries-old vampire…tale as old as time, right? Wrong. Sure, Disenchanted delivers all the explosive romantic energy you’d expect when a woman on a mission to save her kingdom gets mixed up with a reluctant bad boy bodyguard. But, Brianna Sugalski’s magical pen delivers so much more: adventure, intrigue, humor and the kind of deep and diverse world building that leaves you eager for more.” – Sean Gibson, Best selling author of The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True and The Camelot Shadow

“Sugalski’s writing is what predominantly adds the fantastical touches to this tale of risk and vulnerability. A lyrical prose coupled with vivid descriptions completely engulfs, effortlessly carrying away readers to another place and time. A straight-forward plot with the majority of its focus on the evolution of its characters transforms this epic romp into a very intimate illustration of personal growth and self-awareness. The mechanics used to build tension do so without flaw, which oftentimes had me audibly declaring “just one more chapter”. It’s easy to lose yourself in this world she’s created, and I honestly couldn’t ask for anything more.” – Justine Bergman, Whispers and Wonder

“After being in a considerable fantasy slump this year and being underwhelmed by the depictions of vampires amidst their supposed resurgence in YA, I was pleasantly surprised to find Disenchanted. It feels like the love child of Armentrout’s From Blood and Ash and Buffy the Vampire Slayer—two things you should know that I hold in the highest regard. It’s such a strong debut… and I’m already anticipating the next book from Sugalski.” – Meg, A Little Shelf Righteous

Author Bio: 

Brianna Sugalski is a multi-genre Dark Romantasy author with a soup addiction, who has spent much time creating TTRPG characters who never get played, so she puts them in books. 

Also a history student and developmental editor specializing in Sword & Sorcery SFF, Sugalski spends her free time reading about diversity in the Late Middle Ages and within the realm of Arthuriana. 

Sugalski lives in oversized sweaters and prefers exploring the more ominous—disenchanting, if you will—undertones of history, romance, and the arcane.

He tries to avoid her, but with the little pixel peeper snapping everything in sight, she unintentionally risks his exposure.

Freeze Frame

(Snapshot, #1)

by Freya Barker and KT Dove


Genre: Romantic Suspense and Contemporary Romance
Narrated by: Marnye Young, Rock Engle

AMAZON | AUDIBLE

Blurb:

A new career, a new place, and a new man – you’d think after the rough year she’s had, Isla has finally found her stride. Of course it’s never that simple. Some dreams she is building, some dreams are taken away before they have a chance to form. But she never imagined that the one thing she’s worked so hard to realize could be the cause it all breaks apart.

Ben doesn’t miss his assignments, his life of deceit, or his unsavory associations – but they appear to miss him. Just as he’s beginning to think perhaps there’s redemption for him after all, his dark past casts a long shadow – and not just on him but on the woman who made him believe.


About Freya

USA Today bestselling author Freya Barker loves writing about ordinary people with extraordinary stories.
Driven to make her books about ‘real’ people; she creates characters who are perhaps less than perfect, each struggling to find their own slice of happy, but just as deserving of romance, thrills and chills in their lives.
Recipient of the ReadFREE.ly 2019 Best Book We’ve Read All Year Award for “Covering Ollie, the 2015 RomCon “Reader’s Choice” Award for Best First Book, “Slim To None”, Finalist for the 2017 Kindle Book Award with “From Dust”, and Finalist for the 2020 Kindle Book Award with “When Hope Ends”, Freya continues to add to her rapidly growing collection of published novels as she spins story after story with an endless supply of bruised and dented characters, vying for attention!

About KT

KT Dove grew up, and still lives, in the Midwest. At an early age she developed a love for reading, driving the local small-town librarians crazy, and would plan plot lines and stories for her favorite characters. An eager student, KT received degrees in English, Speech/Drama, and Education. Yet instead of becoming the spinster English teacher as planned, she opted for an unexpected HEA of her own.

Now married and a mother, while still an avid reader, she stumbled upon the Indie author movement and became involved on several levels. Never in her wildest imagination would she have thought she would co-author a book, let alone more than one. With the support of her family, she took the plunge, adding writing to an already busy life and literary existence.

She wouldn’t have it any other way!
