Book excerpt: An eerily dreamlike memoir, and the first work of nonfiction by one of our most inventive novelists. Aurelia, Aurélia begins on a boat. The author, sixteen years old, is traveling to Europe at an age when one can “try on personae like dresses.” She has the confidence of a teenager cultivating her earliest obsessions—Woolf, Durrell, Bergman—sure of her maturity, sure of the life that awaits her. Soon she finds herself in a Greece far drearier than the Greece of fantasy, “climbing up and down the steep paths every morning with the real old women, looking for kindling.” Kathryn Davis’s hypnotic new book is a meditation on the way imagination shapes life, and how life, as it moves forward, shapes imagination. At its center is the death of her husband, Eric. The book unfolds as a study of their marriage, its deep joys and stinging frustrations; it is also a book about time, the inexorable events that determine beginnings and endings. The preoccupations that mark Davis’s fiction are recognizable here—fateful voyages, an intense sense of place, the unexpected union of the magical and the real—but the vehicle itself is utterly new. Aurelia, Aurélia explodes the conventional bounds of memoir. It is an astonishing accomplishment.

Book excerpt: An impressive debut, equal parts commercial appeal and literary prowess. Princess Aurelia is next in line to rule the kingdom of Tyralt, but she would rather be one of the common folk, free to learn and roam and . . . not marry the next tyrannical prince that comes courting. Naturally, the king wants Aurelia to marry for political power. Aurelia wants to marry for love. And someone in the kingdom wants her . . . dead. Assigned to investigate and protect Aurelia is Robert, the son of the king?s former royal spy and one of Aurelia?s oldest friends. As Aurelia and Robert slowly uncover clues as to who is threatening her, their friendship turns to romance. With everything possible on the line?her life, her kingdom, her heart?Aurelia is forced to take matters into her own hands, no matter the cost.

Book excerpt: My husband killed me. Instead of spending my immortal Afterlife pissed off and angry, I moved on. I became someone. Sure, that someone was a demon with the highest track record of reform, AKA punishment, in Hell. But who’s bragging? I’m right on my way to retirement behind the pearly gates. Everything was going fine . . . until the Risk Witches saw a terrible vision. Three men. Each scarred in their own way, born with powers that haven’t been seen in eons. Upper Management sent the best to correct their path. Angels. Poltergeists. Nothing worked. These men were too stubborn. Too bad. Too untamed... So they sent me. Roman. Ezra. Dorian. Combined, they have enough power to end the world—and they will. Unless I find a way to stop them first. Breaking people is my job. But this time...my job might break me.

My dreams of retirement crashed and burned when the rogue shifter bit me. Not only have I changed into something neither world has ever seen before, but my mission just became even more impossible. To find the answers about what I am, I enlist the help of an infamous ex-poltergeist, a shifter freak, and my least favorite pigeon. What a team we make. Oh, and did I forget to mention that my mate’s bloodthirsty daughter is awake and hunting my ass now? Because that’s a thing too. Why? I have no idea, but we have every intention of finding out. An angel is playing games with me, but little do they know—I’ve got three alphas by my side, and this dark horse plays for keeps. WHITE RAVEN is book two in A Demon's Guide to the Afterlife series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was supposed to be an innocent vacation. Just me and my wife, Pat, spending a couple days in Kenya. A hotel overlooking the beach, not a kid in sight. Now, I've always loved my wife. We've had ten amazing years together. But... I wonder what it would feel like to bed another woman. Don't get me wrong, I would never want to cheat on my wife. I'm just not that kind of guy. At least, not until I met her. This woman is a goddess. Laying out in the hot Kenyan sun, enjoying a poolside tanning session, Mandy awakened something in me. Her skin glows, she's got the body of a model. I can't stop fantasizing about her. I want to touch her. I want to feel her. That first day, out by the pool, I realized how much I've been missing. I want to do with her what Pat would never do. I can think of so many ways to make her mine. The thrill is unbearable. Pat is my wife. I love her, I really do. But when Mandy looks at me, I can't think straight. She's smart, funny, and motivated. She's married, just like me, but there's a craving in her eyes. Mandy wants me, too. I can see it, plain as day. I came here to spend my vacation with Pat, but now I can only think about how to get away from her. I have to have this woman, at least while I'm here... WARNING: This book is part of Aurelia Hilton's hot, sexy & steamy romance novel... Things will get hot & steamy... Find out what happens when a man needs his lust fulfilled... because it's wild!

Book excerpt: Admired by both Proust and Breton, this nineteenth century book was also the favourite of artist Joseph Cornell. An account of the author's passion for an actress and subsequent descent into madness, AURELIA is a document of dreams, obsessions, and insanity. One of the original bohemians, Nerval was well known in his day for parading a lobster on a blue ribbon through the gardens of the Palais-Royal, and for his suicide (1855), hanging from an apron string he called the garter of the Queen of Sheba.
