When Bree signs up for DreamTogether as a surrogate, she hopes to get matched with Arthur Mangelli, the satyr she’s been crushing on at yoga class. But what she gets? Arthur and his two husbands, Bennett and Jack, who are all in the throes of rutting season—and each of them wants a turn with her on the breeding bench. When breeding is over, though, Arthur, Bennett, and Jack walk away changed. Now all three of them are craving her, and their need to mate is nearly overwhelming. But DreamTogether is anonymous—or so they thought. When Bree’s work as a cam girl brings Arthur and Bennett to her doorstep, the lines blur between the breeding bench and real life. Though Arthur and Bennett are ready to claim Bree as part of their herd, Jack’s painful past may just unravel everything.

The Emperor needs necromancers. The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman. Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead bullshit. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse. She packs up her sword, her shoes, and her dirty magazines, and prepares to launch her daring escape. But her childhood nemesis won't set her free without a service. Harrowhark Nonagesimus, Reverend Daughter of the Ninth House and bone witch extraordinaire, has been summoned into action. The Emperor has invited the heirs to each of his loyal Houses to a deadly trial of wits and skill. If Harrowhark succeeds she will become an immortal, all-powerful servant of the Resurrection, but no necromancer can ascend without their cavalier. Without Gideon's sword, Harrow will fail, and the Ninth House will die. Of course, some things are better left dead.

Desperate to escape her own fated death, the girl uses her brother's identity to enter a monastery as a young male novice. There, propelled by her burning desire to survive, Zhu learns she is capable of doing whatever it takes, no matter how callous, to stay hidden from her fate. After her sanctuary is destroyed for supporting the rebellion against Mongol rule, Zhu uses the chance to claim another future altogether: her brother's abandoned greatness. Mulan meets The Song of Achilles; an accomplished, poetic debut of war and destiny, sweeping across an epic alternate China.

And the threat of rabies was enough to have me sprinting out of my cabin to my only neighbor’s house, with just my towel and suds covering my body.
