All The Things
Releases, Surprises, and Sneak Peaks
Hello Reading Friends!
This week saw the release of FRAYED! And the Mind Hunters Duology is now complete! And it is glorious. ;) If you haven’t yet had a chance to grab your copy, both books are available in ebook, paperback, hardback (seriously…these edges!), audio, and are in KU. :)
Secondly, SANCTIFIED and DARKFELL are Carol Award Finalists! We are tickled pink and so, so proud of all the hard work these authors have put into their books.
We recommend you binge read both. ;)
There are other exciting things afoot! We’d like to invite each of you to check out the Lumiview.

Are you a writer? Have you ever wanted to know to learn how to write more impactful, delicious swoon without including explicit content? We’ve got you covered. KISS & TELL: A GUIDE TO WRITING TOE-CURLING SWOON releases June 2!
If gorgeous fairytale retellings are your thing (and, really, even if they’re not), you will want to mark your calendars for the release of THE SORCERER AND THE SWAN, Liz Griffin’s glorious debut!
A prince in disguise.
A healer in hiding.
A princess under a terrible curse.
The queen is on a rampage. For seventeen years she’s outlawed magic and executed any sorcerers she can find. But now her only daughter has disappeared in the Dark Forest, captured by an infamous sorcerer.
Determined to rescue his betrothed, Prince Siegfried disguises himself as a commoner and blunders into the Dark Forest with little more than a quiver of arrows and a charming smile. But instead of finding the princess, Siegfried discovers Dilla, a girl with forbidden magic.
Dilla has spent her life hiding from the queen and healing her village neighbors with methods both magical and mundane; she has too much at stake to be distracted by the handsome stranger in her forest. But now she is the only witness of the curse that befell the princess, doomed to transform into a swan by day. What’s more, Dilla’s magic might be the spoiled and friendless princess’s only hope of becoming human again. But how can Dilla risk using her power to help the daughter of the very queen that drove her into hiding in the first place?
With the threat of execution circling Dilla’s neck and heartbreak waiting for the prince, she and Siegfried must race against the clock to break the curse. If they can’t, no healing magic will be enough to stop their kingdoms from plunging into war.
Did you know our subs will be opening June 1? It’s time to get your manuscripts whipped into shape! We’re acquiring for all imprints (you can find more imprint details on the website: www.quillandflame.com), and we like to see a query, synopsis, and the first three chapters.
Bring us all the swoon. ;)
At the moment, we’re especially interested in swoony mysteries, contemporary/romcoms, and Obsidian is looking for more redemptive horror. We’ll look at other things so long as they hit our guidelines. No fantasy for Obsidian, please.
We’re looking forward to your stories!
Happy reading, and happy beginning of summer, Friends.
Cheers!

So many great things!!!!!
