Dead leaves break beneath her boots like brittle bones. They cover the forest floor, every branch above them bare save for the evergreens. No matter when she is summoned, those eternal fir trees remain unchanged.

a background image of gothic stonework and the title Every Demon Has Three Names. Log line: one to bind them, one to release them, and the one they choose for themselves. Adult Fantasy Romance. A collage of images: candles glowing in glass jars, the words "every demon has three names", light streaming in through church windows and arches, dozens of open books, a human skull, dead leaves, rope, thorny branches, a person behind a sheer curtain backlit by the sun. An opening excerpt from Every Demon Has Three Names: Dead leaves break beneath her boots like brittle bones. They cover the forest floor, every branch above them bare save for the evergreens. No matter when she is summoned, those eternal fir trees remain unchanged. Steadfast or stubborn? And between the two of them, the spruces and her, who will return to the earth first? For everything one day must rot. Thankfully. She continues to the edge of the woods and stops before the church entrance, glancing up at the round stained-glass window and its depiction of The Righteous beheading The Abomination. Her eyes catch on the scarlet drops of blood that cling to the blade; the triumphant grin on the man’s face as he holds the severed head aloft; the forlorn stare of green eyes empty of life. With a muttered curse, she tears her gaze away and shoves the door open—it hits the stone wall with a satisfying thud. She may be bound, but she will not come meekly, a pet heeling for table scraps. The human waits for her at the altar. What demand will they make? Will they tremble and struggle to say her name, or will they toss it out carelessly, as if it were theirs to do with as they please? The first are right to fear her and the second are fools. With measured steps, she stalks down the carpeted nave, as if she has all the time in the world, as if her feet don’t burn with each pause between strides. She can’t ignore a summoning, but she damn well can make them wait for it.

“If the Faceless Gods knew I read the missive sprawled out on the painted desk before me, I’d be dead.

Unfortunately for my masters, the note, written in golden, honey-sweet lettering, contained the most delicious news of my lengthy existence.

As if I’d give it up now.”

An Editor's Guide To RIGHT WHERE YOU LEFT ME 80k Word Thriller Agent: Najla Mamou PITCH When Sophie is brutally dumped, she begins dreaming of a life in the 1950s and hearing an unfamiliar voice in her head prodding her to seek revenge. As terrible accidents begin to befall those closest to her, she can't help but wonder: Is she possessed or just pissed? From the time I was a child, I was taught to be agreeable. Kind. Quiet. Showing emotions other than gratitude or cheerfulness was frowned upon. It was as if the adults knew that if little girls tapped into the frustration, the seething anger, the screaming resentment burrowing deep in our little chests before we could even articulate the injustices, the leering eyes, the condescension, and the double-standards feeding the flames, we would become too powerful. So instead, they shamed us for our outbursts. Told us we were out of control. Hysterical. Crazy. Weak. In return, we learned to control our fires, even as the men around us punched walls and screamed, exerting their emotions like powerful weapons to wield. But those sparks in our chests were never fully extinguished, and for some of us, they were left smouldering unattended while dangerous, mischievous kindling, carelessly strewn about, smiled as it caught flame.

A guide to This Fractured Soul A second chance, adult gothic romantasy Pitch: When a visually impaired woman is saved by an arranged marriage to the boy who broke her heart, she must face the demons of her past if she’s to forgive him whilst harnessing the darkness lurking within her soul to defeat the enemies clawing for his life and throne. Snippet: His hand brushed mine. “You’d have done the same for me.” “No, I wouldn’t.” He leaned forward, and turning my head I caught his expression. A wry grin lifted up the corner of his full lips. “Are you telling me,” he said, “You’d let them throw me into the molten lava. Just stand by as I suffer a horrendously ghastly death?” “Of course I wouldn’t stand by and watch you die,” His fingers relaxed their hold on the reins as a smile tugged the corner of my mouth. “I’d fucking push you.” Matthias laughed. A deep, rich rumble ran through me and I blocked out how much I loved that sound. For fans of One Dark Window, Carving shadows into gold, Radiance, Foxglove
