  ALONE WITH YOU IN THE ETHER

  Olivie Blake

  • Tor Books
  • 29 Novembre 2022
  • 9781035012916

  From the No.1 International Bestselling author of The Atlas Six CHICAGO, SOMETIME. Two people meet in the armory of the Art Institute by chance. Prior to their encounter, he is a doctoral student who manages his destructive thoughts with compulsive calculations about time travel; she is a bipolar counterfeit artist undergoing court-ordered psychotherapy. After their meeting, those things do not change. Everything else, however, is slightly different. Both obsessive, eccentric personalities, Aldo Damiani and Charlotte Regan struggle to be without each other from the moment they meet. The truth - that he is a clinically depressed, anti-social theoretician and she is a manipulative liar with a history of self-sabotage - means the deeper they fall in love, the more troubling their reliance on each other becomes. ALONE WITH YOU IN THE ETHER is a glimpse into the nature of love, what it means to be unwell, and how to face the fractures of yourself and still love as if you''re not broken. Reader reviews for The Atlas Six : ''The most brilliant, immersive, magic-made-real book I''ve ever read!'' ''Deftly woven plot and amazing ensemble cast'' ''Believe the hype! Absolutely fantastic!''

  Set in the dreamy backwoods of Oregon, Brothersong is a queer, paranormal romance of burning passion and pack loyalty, and is the fourth book in the Green Creek series.
  
  In the ruins of Caswell, Maine, Carter Bennett learned the truth of what had been right in front of him the entire time. And then it - he - was gone.
  
  Desperate for answers, Carter takes to the road, leaving family and the safety of his pack behind, all in the name of a man he only knows as a feral wolf. But therein lies the danger: wolves are pack animals, and the longer Carter is on his own, the more his mind slips toward the endless void of Omega insanity.

  Gavin, the son of Robert Livingstone. The half-brother of Gordo Livingstone.

  And with this knowledge comes a price: the sins of the fathers now rest upon the shoulders of their sons.

  Brimming with steamy romance, charm and intrigue, Swordcrossed is a dazzling queer fantasy from the internationally bestselling author of The Last Binding trilogy.
  
  Low stakes. High heat. Sharp steel . . .
  
  Mattinesh Jay, dutiful heir to his struggling family business, needs to hire an experienced swordsman to serve as best man for his arranged marriage. Sword-challenge at the ceremony could destroy all hope of restoring his family''s wealth, something that Matti has been trying-and failing-to do for the past ten years. What he can afford, unfortunately, is part-time con artist and full-time charming menace Luca Piere.
  
  Luca, for his part, is trying to reinvent himself in a new city. All he wants to do is make some easy money and try to forget the crime he committed in his hometown. He didn''t plan on being blackmailed into giving sword lessons to a chronically responsible-and inconveniently handsome-wool merchant like Matti.
  
  However, neither Matti''s business troubles nor Luca himself are quite what they seem. As the days count down to Matti''s wedding, the two of them become entangled in the intrigue and sabotage that have brought Matti''s house to the brink of ruin. And when Luca''s secrets threaten to drive a blade through their growing alliance, both Matti and Luca will have to answer the question: how many lies are you prepared to strip away, when the truth could mean losing everything you want?
