You Could Be So Pretty (2023)
Holly Bourne
"You Could Be So Pretty reads like a compulsive thriller, but this dystopian story felt frighteningly real. Vital, compelling, heart-wrenchingly relatable - this book is a shot of adrenaline, an empathetic friend and a furious call to arms. I loved it."

The Second Lady Silverwood (2023)
Emma Orchard
"A delicious slice of escapism."

Twin Crowns (2022)
(Twin Crowns, book 1)
Catherine Doyle and Katherine Webber
"Reading Twin Crowns left me giddy. Adventure, romance, TWO incredible protagonists, magic, sisterhood... I loved it."
