Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magical, provocative tale of forbidden love and one girl’s struggle for liberation Hanna has never been outside her secluded community of Clearhaven. She has never questioned why her father has four wives or why she has fourteen brothers and sisters. And in only one week, on her eighteenth birthday, Hanna will follow tradition and become the fifth wife of a man more than twice her age. But just days before the wedding, Hanna meets an enigmatic stranger who challenges her to question her fate and to follow her own will. And when her mother reveals a secret—one that could grant her the freedom she’s known only in her dreams—Hanna is forced to decide whether she was really meant for something greater than the claustrophobic world of Clearhaven. But can she abandon her beloved younger sister and the only home she’s ever known? Or is there another option—one too fantastical to believe? With lush, evocative prose, award-winning author Christopher Meades takes readers on an emotional journey into a fascinating, unknown world—and, along the way, brilliantly illuminates complexities of faith, identity and how our origins shape who we are.

A gorgeous blend of dreamy folklore and gritty reality." --Erika Swyler, bestselling author of The Book of Speculation Hanna has never been outside her secluded community of Clearhaven, nor has she ever questioned why her father has four wives. And in only one week, on her eighteenth birthday, Hanna will follow tradition and become the fifth wife of a man more than twice her age. But just days before the wedding, an enigmatic stranger challenges Hanna to question her fate and to follow her own will, causing her world to begin unraveling around her. When her mother reveals a secret, Hanna is forced to decide whether she was really meant for something greater than the claustrophobic world of Clearhaven. But can she abandon her beloved younger sister and the only home she's ever known?

Book excerpt: A floating city. A pirate running from her past. A stolen trinket that could tear her world apart. Fleet and her brother Daryus have made a career out of stealing from other pirates. With their beloved airship and a loyal crew, they're unstoppable – until a raid goes wrong and they end up fleeing for their lives. Except there's nowhere for them to run. The city they call home has come under siege from within, and Fleet's at the heart of it all. Soon, she's attracting the wrong sort of attention from every quarter: vengeful pirate captains, otherworldly wolves, her estranged husband – and the mysterious Shan, who knows more than he's letting on. If Fleet can't put things right, the new life she's built for herself will be destroyed, and it's going to take the whole city with it.
