It follows Elizabeth Arden, a young woman raised by a cold, distant father and a prim, proper aunt. Unsurprisingly Elizabeth comes of age with no sense of how to make her way in the world or what will make her happy. At a young age she marries a man she does not love and embarks on a life that does not fulfill her. Her wedding night on her marriage is a complete disaster. After a time she separates from her husband and tries to make her way in the world. To start she is little more than a spoiled girl, but as the book unfolds Elizabeth struggles to become her own person and is surprised by just who she is and what she wants. A thoroughly satisfying novel.

Book excerpt: Instead of the Thorn is a tale of love and romance, suspense and heartache. It is the story of a gorgeous young girl whose mother passed away a long time ago, and since then, she has been raised with much love and care by her extremely wealthy father. When her father suddenly died, leaving a bankrupted business, she was devastated with no clue what would happen next. The people who cared about her took her away to the wonderful seaside home of her old aunt. Though they had never spent much time together and had different opinions on life, her aunt takes on the task of watching over the young girl. She gets worried about her delicate state of mind and takes care of her with the help of the girl's favorite teacher. She meets a young man who instantly falls in love with her, and they deal with all the complications coming in the way of them being together. Though the story is full of tragic events in the young girl's life, the author entertains the readers with tiny bits of comedy.

Book excerpt: Welcome to Glendoch! Hidden to most, this glacial world once crackled with alchemy. Now it waits for war—divided and bound by strict rules. So when twelve-year-old Meylyne falls from a tree onto Glendoch’s sickly prince, she must flee or face imprisonment in the Shadow-Cellars. The only way she may return home is with a cure for the prince’s peculiar disease. Convinced she will perish, Meylyne and her companions embark on their journey—and before they know it, they are knee-deep in a plot to sink Glendoch into shadow, like other worlds before it. Poisoned guardians, cursed wizards, and cunning witch-spirits bound into wands are just some of the dangers that dot the way of their travels. And behind it all is the Thorn Queen. Mysteriously magnetic (or murderously vengeful, depending on whose side you’re on), she is always one step ahead of them . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a landscape at once the brutal American South as it is the brutal mind, Boy with Thorn interrogates the genesis of all poetic creation—the imagination itself, questioning what role it plays in both our fascinations with and repulsion from a national history of racial and sexual violence. The personal and political crash into one language here, gothic as it is supple, meditating on visual art and myth, to desire, the practice of lynching and Hurricane Katrina. Always at its center, though, is the poet himself—confessing a double song of pleasure and inevitable pain.
