A Guide to Night Bird An adult romantic fantasy novel

A Guide to Night Bird An adult romantic fantasy novel

The Pitch Ava can become invisible and walk through walls but can’t escape her warded cage. Destined to follow in her dead mother’s footsteps as a courtesan and spy, she’s trained to get close to—and betray—those in the highest levels of society. But alone at night in her room, she listens to the steam engine’s whistle, plays her cello to the night birds, and dreams of escaping her prison. Until one stormy evening, a boy, Zev, breaks through her window and gives her a taste of life beyond the bars. Their chance meeting spawns two years of secret friendship until her eighteenth birthday, when her seduction training will begin. Instead, she wakes up to a grisly scene—a bloody trail, dead guardians, and broken wards. Given what she knows of Zev’s powerful abilities, she assumes her freedom came at his hand. She waits for his return, which never comes. Eight years later, Ava has reinvented herself as Night Bird, a vigilante for wronged women. She’s assisted by a group of former street kids who’ve matured into a misfit gang. A botched mission finds them in the crosshairs of a shadowy man known as a high-powered fixer. That man turns out to be the boy who’d disappeared years earlier. It’s unclear if he’s friend or foe. However, when she takes on her biggest target—the last man to see her mother alive—Zev may be the only person keeping her from going up in flames.

Chapter One Only the night birds provided company in my caged existence. They sang for me after the sun dipped, gliding beyond my window’s metal bars as their trilling tunes wove through the moon’s light. They were my link to the outside world, a fragile tether to life beyond my warded room. My self-given name—Ava—was an homage to them, the beautiful creatures that kept me sane. During the day, when I was granted time away from lessons, the noise and bustle of the street scared them beneath the eaves, into the holes and crannies of buildings. I’d sit, fists clenched, ears straining for their hopeful notes. But I was alone. The lectas didn’t count. They were caretakers, not company. When streetlamps glowed in the satiny darkness, the night birds’ warbles piercing the quiet, I’d pull out my cello. My bow swept the strings like a feathered wing, and the resonant chords danced with the birdsong. They’d swoop and dive, triumphant in their freedom—something I’d never known and never would.

Picture with white background in the middle and blue patterns on the side In the white box, there's one header: the pitch Beckett has a five-year plan. The only thing standing between him and his promotion to COO is the buyout of a small real estate company. Well, that, and the attractive receptionist, Nat, who lives to make his job hell. One wrong move has her pinned underneath him, stirring feelings within him he thought died a long time ago. When her sugar daddy ends their contact, Nat is abandoned, broke, and screwed without his kitchen she used for her and her best friend’s baking business. In other words, her dreams are burnt to a crisp, which is exactly what her busted oven does to cookies. To relieve stress and ease her anxiety, Nat enters a sex-only relationship with Beckett. But after Beckett’s cousin sees Nat leaving his house, he makes Nat an offer she can’t refuse. She can live with him rent-free and have full use of his chef’s kitchen, if she pretends to be his girlfriend until his cousin’s wedding. It’s a recipe Nat knows can only end in disaster. When she starts to fall for him, Nat can’t risk her business and fears Beckett will leave the same way every other man in her life has. All the while, Beckett fights his feelings to avoid breaking promises and plans he made with a tombstone four years ago.

Picture with white background in the middle and blue patterns on the side. In box: Ch 1 snippet. Pausing at the green and blue artwork on the wall, I wrinkle my nose. About a week after I started here, one of the personal assistants, Summer, gifted this to me. It looks like shit and resembles a bunch of fucking dicks painted on a canvas. Abstract art my ass. I stalk out to the lobby, and I’m met with all the bored faces of my colleagues. The junior agents all yawn at their desks, or lean back in their chairs as they scroll through their phones. It’s been a slow week, but I make a mental note about the climate of the office. However one person in particular stands out. Natasha Marino. The firm’s receptionist, or the bane of my work life existence, as I like to call her. She’s on my list, too. Strutting up to her reception desk, I press my forearm against it and peer down at her. “Good morning, Nat,” I smile as her brows furrow and her shoulders roll forward. “How’s the new year treating you so far?” Without looking up, Nat shrugs and continues typing on her computer. “It’s been good up until now,” she mutters. “See, my resolution was to rid myself of everything negative in my life”—she looks up at me through thick lashes and a tight-lipped smile graces her face—“but then I remembered how difficult that would be working here with some people.” “Some people in this office can be difficult to work with, I agree.” Spoiler: it’s her; she’s the people difficult to work with.

Mixing sugar with butter? Good.
Mixing business with pleasure? Bad. Terrible. Stupid.
But there's no crying in baking, and the cost to save S&N Sweets? Pretending to be his live-in girlfriend.

Page 1 with background of the cliffs and sea at sunset. Split diagonally with on one side the text:An Agent's Guide to Careless Whispers, Romantic Suspense, and piece of dialogue: '...our very own Greek tragedy,' says Troy. 'It has it all. Sex, money, adultery. Even - if you believe the rumours - murder.' On the other side is The Pitch: When a death becomes a suspected murder, a PR exec must decide how far she'll go to protect the people she loves. They all have a motive. Especially the man she loves. The dead woman's husband.

Page 2 is entitled Opening Lines. As the song fades out, she hears the footsteps behind her. She doesn't rise from the lounger or turn her head, just takes another gulp of her wine, her eyes fixed on the pearl-button moon plucking itself free from a straggle of clouds. 'I told you to leave,' she says, her voice blurred. 'It's over. There's nothing more to say.' 'There's plenty I have to say.' Her head whips round then. She smiles. She'd been wondering if one of them will turn up. She'd refused to go to the stupid party. They're all stuck-up and boring, and they hate her so she knows she won't be missed. But sitting here alone by the pool, drinking, waiting for her phone to ping a reply – any kind of response! – she'd grown bored and been thinking maybe she ought to go after all. Just to spoil their fun.

The comps for The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor The House at Watch Hill with its dark inheritance and family secrets The Hacienda with its unresolved grief, psychological unraveling, an supernatural dread Crimson Peak with its decaying grandeur, gothic vibes, and betrayed love

The pitch for The Last Heir of Bradbury Manor: This 96,000-word story set in 1919 blends the psychological unraveling and creeping dread of THE HACIENDA with the sentient, menacing estate of STARLING HOUSE. Perfect for readers who love haunted legacies, doomed romance, and houses that refuse to let go. A dying estate. A bankrupt legacy. A suitor offering salvation or a love that could destroy her. A mother’s death shrouded in mystery. A father she can’t trust. A blood curse feeding the manor’s hunger. Lottie Bradbury must face it all. Summoned home after a decade at boarding school, Lottie is given an ultimatum: marry the man her father has chosen or face ruin. But when the gardener is found dead on the manor steps, she is drawn into a web of long-buried secrets. His son, Arthur, insists the estate itself is to blame—and that her mother’s sudden death was no accident. Guided by her mother’s chilling diary, Lottie and Arthur uncover an ancient curse that doomed generations of Bradbury patriarchs to die after the birth of their heir. All except her father. The deeper they dig, the more the curse retaliates, twisting reality, conjuring the dead, and unraveling Lottie’s sanity. But Arthur has secrets of his own. The closer Lottie gets to him, the stronger the curse’s grip tightens. Because Arthur isn’t just tied to Bradbury Manor. He’s bound to it. Breaking the curse means losing him forever. Embracing it may damn her soul.

She wished she could bottle the moment and return to it in the years to come. But no such power existed - or if it did, the gods didn’t share it with her. The night passed between them. None came to relieve them of their watch. Perhaps again, this was the hand the gods. Or perhaps their companions were simply tired. An easy silence fell, sparked only by the cracking of a log, the hiss of the fire. Alwyn never let go of her hand.
