The Shadow Bride The Scarlet Veil 2

"Will cast a spell on romance fans." - Kirkus Reviews

"[A] rollicking fantasy duology starter . . . horror-inflected action, puckish humor, and heady romance enliven both the twisty central mystery and Célie's journey of self-discovery." - Publishers Weekly

Praise for Serpent & Dove: "Drips with intrigue and shadow." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Praise for Blood & Honey: "In Lou's world she not only finds her voice, but makes men take notice and change their views of women. With so many twists and turns, this book is a must for fans of the first." - School Library Journal

?"Mahurin has taken the witch and witch hunter trope and made it new again. The world-building will draw in readers and Lou's strong but wistful nature will keep them turning pages." - School Library Journal

"A brilliant debut, full of everything I love: a sparkling and fully-realized heroine, an intricate and deadly system of magic, and a searing romance that kept me reading long into the night. Serpent & Dove is an absolute gem of a book."

"An equal mixture of fantasy and romance with a manageable experience for genre newcomers. While it features characters from Mahurin's original trilogy, this spinoff is readable on its own. VERDICT A first selection for libraries seeking new titles for fans of Sarah J. Maas's A Court of Thorns and Roses." - School Library Journal

"Decadent and dangerous, Blood & Honey was exactly the book I needed at precisely the right time. The rich cast of characters captivated me, and I can't wait to see what's in store next for this merry band of miscreants." - Reneé Ahdieh, New York Times bestselling author of The Wrath & the Dawn series

"Blood & Honey grabbed me by the throat. Shining with irreverent humor and brutal heartache, every magical word is rendered beautifully throughout the many twists and harrowing turns. Mahurin delivers a triumphant return to Belterra. - Isabel Ibañez, author of Woven In Moonlight

"A breathless, breathtaking continuation of the magical world Mahurin has created pits the strength of love against the need to protect those one loves...at any cost. Would you lose your soul to save someone else's? Blood & Honey doesn't just address this question; it slams the reader into the story - and that existential question - in a brilliant, unending roller-coaster ride." - Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author of Small Great Things and A Spark of Light

"Seductive, emotional and delicious, I loved every moment with Célie in this deadly and enchanting conclusion to the Scarlet Veil. Mahurin has crafted such a relatable and vulnerable character, and dropped her in the most dangerous and secretive world, where her sensitivity could save them all. This is a treat for romance, gothic and paranormal lovers everywhere, and I can't wait to see what she writes next." - Megan Scott, author of The Temptation of Magic

"Mahurin's undead, both vampire and zombie, are unreal and scary, especially when faced with the need to feed. Pick this up to finish off the enticing duology set in the fan-favorite Serpent & Dove universe." - Booklist
