As you hurry into the nearby village to look for a gift, you spot a bookshop you’ve never noticed before, and head inside to read the first chapter of Kimberly Grymes’ YA Science-Fantasy novella, The Red Umber Forest.

----------------------------------------------------------

From the back of the book:

Ulissa lives on Anuminis, where she lives a simple life, and likes living a simple life. She wakes up and goes to school, hangs out with her best friend, Jasper, apprentices in her village’s amphitheater, and practices her inherent magic with her younger sister.

But no matter what Ulissa does, nothing’s ever good enough for her mom. Her sister always outshines her, and luck is never on her side. That is, up until the day the most powerful woman of their kind, Fawness comes to their village. Ulissa wants nothing more than to attend the theater event where Fawness will be telling one of her famous stories. That’s if she can stay out of trouble with her mom.

It’s a day full of unexpected ups and downs, tears and surprises, and a few heartwarming moments.

Step inside the fictional bookshop on a dark All Hallows night amid the rustling leaves and spectral moon. Peruse the first chapter of Lord of the Hollow Court, by C.K. Beggan before heading back out into the night.

LORD OF THE HOLLOW COURT, Fade to Black Edition, Season of the Fae Book One by C.K. Beggan

----------------------------------------------------------

From the back of the book:

A human girl in want of a husband. A fae lord of a court on the brink. This year’s Samhain revel shall be anything but ordinary.

It's Halloween night in Sleepy Hollow, and Katty is desperate to find a husband. When prime target Ichabod flees into the woods, Katty steals her friend's horse and chases after him—only to encounter a frightening spirit on horseback. While stumbling through the misty woods, Katty finds herself in an enchanted fae manor.

As Lord of the Hollow Court, low fae Braam hosts the Samhain revel each year, an event that draws high fae from international courts—including his liege and secret lover, Madeleif. Despite his efforts to perfect every detail of the revel and save his Court, Braam is irresistibly drawn to Madeleif, right under her royal mate's nose.

But this year's revel must go off without a hitch: if Braam can't prove his court's worth, the Hollow Court will be absorbed into the merciless Court of Claws. After Katty is discovered in his pantry, Braam scrambles to save a human girl he's never met instead of returning to the woman he loves.

Will Katty and Braam be each other's salvation? Or is a single human girl all it takes to topple the Hollow Court for good?

This fae The Legend of Sleepy Hollow retelling is the first in a series of interconnected, standalone romantic fantasy novels, each set during a different time of year in fae courts around the world. Lord of the Hollow Court: Fade to Black Edition features historical romance, an age gap romance, a marriage of convenience and tension-filled fade to black scenes.
