Agent's guide for A FAE FORGED IN IRON, a 99k adult romantasy.

Tropes, themes, and comps listed for A FAE FORGED IN IRON, including a neurodivergent FMC, a lost foster sibling, a dual world, and only one horse. LGBTQIA+ & disability rep. Comps are The Serpent and the Wings of Night for the power struggle, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers, and search for identity; Spark of the Everflame for the fight against injustice and oppression, found family, and royal palace intrigue; and From Blood and Ash for the FMC's hidden and developing powers and the kidnapper-turned-love-interest storyline.

Nora, a neurodivergent student, wants two things: enough money for her next meal and to know why her intense emotions flicker lights, slam doors, and wilt flowers. When Nora’s dysregulation causes her foster sister to vanish, Nora joins group therapy to temper her feelings. There, she meets dangerously handsome Ash—an undercover Fae prince. Ash abducts Nora, transporting her from Earth to Itheca—a Fae realm where emotions are weapons. Ash claims he’s working with Ithecan rebels to overthrow his mother, an evil Queen who kidnaps human children. Nora uses her powers to attack the Queen’s associate and discovers the Queen has kidnapped her foster sister and is using children’s unbridled emotions to create a spectral army that will consume human and Fae energy. Ash demands Nora wield her emotions to help fight the Queen. But Nora distrusts her ability to rein in her turbulent feelings. Ash’s arrogance turns persuasively charming, and Nora starts to believe in not only him but also herself. But what if falling for him is a trap devised by his mother? The fate of Nora's sister and both worlds hinges on Nora's ability to regulate herself but also to know when to let her feelings fly at their full force.

Excerpt from A FAE FORGED IN IRON: Using my powers in the caves felt euphoric. Like my body knew what to do, on instinct. Like it’s what I was made to do. Sure, I had no self-control and probably gave myself a mild concussion, but I can’t deny that letting my emotions flow through me felt right. I’ve been floundering here on Earth for almost twenty years. Even before my parents died, I never truly felt like I fit in. After so long trying to be normal—like everyone else—I’m tired of it. Maybe it’s not what I was meant to do.

#ND & emotionally volatile Nora only wants to survive college, but when her foster sister is kidnapped by a ruthless Fae queen, Nora faces a realm where her emotions can be used against her & the brooding Fae prince who would keep her there.

The Drift was more sea than land. Its cities were a riotous array of flotsam lashed from Angloria's seized ships, and it was on these vast expanses of floating garbage that the world's most eclectic misfits found women for their beds and goats for their cook-pots, though the empire's history books would come to claim it was the other way around.

Text next to an image of dragon gargoyles reaching out from a cathedral steeple- Rooted in Stone YA Urban Fantasy 100k words

Words written over a dark black background with a crow motif- Rumors say that St. Romain’s is haunted. That suits lonely, troubled goth-girl Helena, perfectly fine. Right away she is fascinated by the eerie sculptures on the campus chapel. Wounded by past rejections, she is reluctant to open up to anyone. All she wants to do is fool her therapist long enough to not get kicked out of another school. When she develops a crush on the mysterious and beautiful Kia, Helena learns her secret… Kia is a gargoyle. The statues are not just stone, but powerful guardians of a rift between worlds. These uncanny guardians quickly find a friend in Helena, but she hides a dark power of her own. When war spills through the rift, the stones of their beloved chapel begin to crumble and Helena is drawn into the battle to protect the world. Trapped in a strange, technicolor netherworld, our goth-girl heroine must face the darkness within or risk the collapse of both worlds and the destruction of her newfound family of stone… and Kia with them.

The streetlights glowed with an amber hue, a color that still unnerved Ben. It had once been an omen of danger, but that had been another place, another life. Now, he was safe in his cab, crawling along the quiet road.
