Love these vibes!!

6 image moodboard with an orange tinged filter. Row 1: a woman in an early 19th century traveling suit carrying luggage and looking over her shoulder; a female adventurer/archaeologist in early 19th century working apparel. Row 2: a woman standing on top of dunes in a desert; an ancient Egyptian king in royal regalia caressing a woman’s face. Row 3: a woman & a man in desert apparel tenderly holding each other; a man carrying an injured woman through a desert sand storm. The Resurrected King | Demri Redmon

When Elaine’s dream of finding an ancient wonder comes true, she accidentally resurrects a king & her broken heart. Egyptian gods are desperate to restore the balance between life & death, leaving Elaine to decide how far she’ll go to protect the man she loves

An Agent’s Guide to The Land of Undying Summer By Ivy T. Woods Adult romantic fantasy 99,000 words On a background of a map is a potted plant and a pestle

On the left is a piece of paper containing a picture of mountains and a river. Pitch After a wandering mage’s equipment is stolen he is strong armed into helping a disillusioned death priestess identify why no more mages are being born and how to fix it. As the two grow reluctantly closer, they find that the enemy is not always where it seems. With roots in animistic religion and a setting inspired by the Canadian sub-arctic, THE LAND OF UNDYING SUMMER is a stand-alone with series potential.

Comps The Gilded Crown by Marianne Gordon Blood Over Bright Haven by M. L. Wang Vibes of with two arrows pointing at both book covers

Chapter One - The End of Darkness Tilaani stepped through the Wolf’s Fangs, squinting into the bright light of early spring. The snow that clung to the mountain glittered in the bright afternoon sun. “Shit.” She snatched her cloak from an icy stalagmite and darted into a slim crack in the cliff face. The frozen stone was still jagged from when the cliff had split and the edges tugged at her shirt as she sidled through, cloak still clutched in one hand. Time warped within the cavern, stretching and compressing at random. Sometimes she would emerge to find that only a few minutes had passed outside. Today, the few hours she had spent being lectured by the spirits of the Ancients had become nearly an entire night and day in the land of the living. The dead delighted in wasting her time, especially when she had actual duties to perform. Allak would be insufferable if she was late.

🐻‍❄️ A setting inspired by the Canadian subarctic

Agent guide to I Am Chosen, an M/M paranormal romance written by Dawn Berkoski. The picture is of a fiery orange and purple sunset over a highway. Photography by Dawn Berkoski

Several photos are shown in this Moodboard for I Am Chosen, a paranormal romance written by Dawn Berkoski. From the top left, a glass of aged scotch surrounded by butterscotch candies, a CEO standing in a high rise office, staring out a window, a giant hotel clock surrounded by Christmas decor, a photo of art depicting demons rising from hell, a sunset with black, billowy clouds hovering over an orange stripe, a dirty cement staircase near a darkened entrance, and the city of London as viewed from the river. Photography, except the man, by Dawn Berkoski

Photo is of a vibrant sunset over a graveyard as seen from the window of a fast moving vehicle. It reads: PITCH IN A WORLD CONTROLLED BY CORPORATE VAMPIRES, TWO MEN STRUGGLE FOR AUTONOMY. WILL A CHANCE MEETING LEAD THEM TO FREEDOM, OR A WEB OF SUBTERFUGE, WHERE EVERY THREAD BRINGS A MONSTER OFFERING DEATH OR PERMANTENT CONFINEMENT? Photo by Dawn Berkoski

Book vibes are all about the feel of the writing, setting, and story. The Blue Blood Series by Melissa de la Cruz Is used to represent the wealthy elite vampires living in New York, the fish out of water trope, dark secrets, and others. The Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice is used to represent young vampires rebelling against old rules and customs. Travel and setting also play a role. A plot point was inspired by the novel. Yakuza, Japan’s Criminal Underworld by David Kaplan and Alec Dubro, is used to represent some of the vampire rivals business practices. It plays a role in the series arch. Photography at the bottom: A dark cement staircase and photo of the London Eye by Dawn Berkoski

Raised by corporate vampires with little freedom or choice, Alex is used to Yakuza business rivals and back-alley deals. But nothing prepares him for Jason, a witty bartender who challenges everything he knows, and who harbors secrets as deadly as the vampires after him. 💙📚

A collage of six pictures with Cursed Blessings written at the top. From top left to bottom right, the pictures are as follows: A sunset over an ocean, framed with plants. Two horseback riders on a beach in front of a sunset. A black dragon in a foggy picture. A black cat sitting on a metal fence with bare branches behind it. A white, old-looking door that's opened to an alley with paving stones and plants along it. The sun beaming through large trees in the woods.
