Summary
Aiglamene's life has been long, and brutal, pockmarked by primordial dreaming like the kiss of blade to bone. Oss, tallow, blood, incense - the Tomb. The pulse of thanergy, just out of her reach.
None of it is so obliterating as the feel of rotted flesh where a dead girl's heart should be.
---
Aiglamene and Gideon share a moment after the events of Nona the Ninth.

Summary
Liliya remembers that day, crisp and clear in the private recesses of her brain. The pleasant burn of smoke in her lungs, the familiar quietude of winter.
A frame of dark hair, sweet bright eyes. The first time she heard Jane’s voice, pitched up in that uncertain tone. Eager to please.
That’s the moment she should have guessed it would all become so fucking complicated.

Summary
Nat is twenty one and she is tired. Sober for over a year, working the same four shifts (Thursday through Sunday, 4-8pm) at the same dingy used bookstore as a weird mutualistic favor to her mom’s friend’s aunt. Drowning in pity, left knee aching in the mornings, kept alive by the good grace of a Keurig and the crotchety shop cat’s need for semi-regular mealtimes, Nat is in no shape to rescue anyone.
A stranger with dark hair and darker eyes, rambling about queens and goddesses, doesn’t fit well in her nonexistent plans.

Summary
The last six months of Gideon Nav's life have been, more or less, the best of her life. Sure, it's not hard to beat over 18 years of gruel and being homeschooled by horrible nuns, but she has a job, even if it's a shit one, has discovered Dunkin', and splits the bills with her gremlin roommate.
Unfortunately, Drearburh, a few months as a gas station attendant, and a lifetime of living in each other's pockets still didn't prepare her for a sick Harrow.

Summary
The only thing that's made three and half years at Piltover's snobbiest college bearable has been Caitlyn. Vi's gotten used to their long nights in the library, pizza study sessions, and Thursdays at Cait's cozy off-campus apartment. And yeah, she might be a little in love with her best friend, but that's her cross to bear.
Until Caitlyn decides finals are a good time to change up her wardrobe, and things go to hell.

Summary
Harrowhark Nonagesimus is getting a PhD and a divorce.
Against her better judgment, she goes out to the bar to celebrate and meets an incorrigible, absolutely ripped salt-and-paprika butch who takes her home and gives it to her good. To her horror, it's the best night of her life, and she sneaks home with her tail between her legs.
Harrow has more important things to worry about - like raising her daughter and building the next stages of her career. But when her daughter's favorite teacher, someone named Griddle, turns about to be the Gideon she met at the bar, she's forced to contend with allowing herself (and her daughter) to find the happy ending she never thought they'd have.
Featuring MILF!Harrow, Teacher!Gideon, and a very amused Camilla Hect.

Summary
Harrowhark Nonagesimus has no intention of leaving Drearburh when she turns 18. So what if it's tradition for all young witches to strike out on their own to develop their magic? She's content to tend to the glowworm caves, practice her necromancy, and talk to her familiar, Ortus. Yet when her parents reveal a tragic secret about her beloved home, she is forced to strike out on her own.
When she arrives at the City of Canaan, she finds that the world may not be ready for a bone witch. Yet with the help of the kindly spirit witch Abigail and her baker husband Magnus, Harrow begins to find her place in Canaan, even if the pressing needs of her home weigh on her every move. And even if the annoyingly friendly Gideon Nav won't leave her alone...

Ruth 1:16
"Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God."
For Beatrice, faith is starting to look like the shimmer of light on her face in the morning, the sweet smell of her hair, a surrender to her insistence for touch.

Summary
Vi doesn’t expect much from her summer in Piltover, other than a minimum wage job at Vander’s friend’s boxing gym and video calls home with Powder. At best, evening walks with an ice cream cone at the boardwalk. Maybe stealing a kiss from a girl or two.
Caitlyn Kirraman is far more than she bargained for.
