The Couple at the Second Table
by Layla
A bar forty feet from her door, a third of a glass, an hour with nothing owed to anyone. It's the best part of her week. Then a champagne bottle turns up at a table that only ever orders a pint: a couple, good coats, a marriage she'll never know. So she does what she's best at — takes what the room hands her and invents the rest: how they met, what he isn't saying, the way tonight ends, a whole decade built from a bottle and two good coats — until the floor drops and the invented body becomes her own. A contemporary, female-gaze story about the erotic daydreaming women do and almost never say out loud — for readers who want to be read back to themselves, unhurried and unashamed.

The Ledger of True Things
Vera Cassel has spent ten years reading what other people's ledgers try not to say — and she's never met a man she couldn't audit until she crosses into Maerath, a city of perpetual midnight built from her own professional armor. She's here to investigate the Keeper of the Ledger, the man who holds every debt and obligation in the city, and the one person whose attention she can't price, predict, or explain away. The deeper she digs, the more the case implicates the very people who hired her — and the harder it gets to stay forensic about a man who's decided to be completely honest with her. A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers fantasy for readers who want their heroine sharp, their hero unreadable, and the truth to cost something before it sets anyone free.
