What if everything you knew about yourself was a lie? Melusine Dor#65533; is as practiced at guarding a secret as she is at wielding a weapon. Yet her past refuses to stay buried. Her worst fears are realized when Melusine and her companion, Levi, get called to hunt a beast in her birthplace of Malheur. The second she sets foot on her native soil, nothing proceeds as she planned: a beautiful tinker sets her sights on Levi, a gentle monster kills for sport, and an admission of love becomes a betrayal. Melusine comes face to face with the lies of her family's past-and a truth that could destroy her. Adventure number two in the Clockwork Siren series, Submerged takes us from the muddy trenches of steampunk Chicago to the sticky swamps of Louisiana to the slippery side of love.

NO REST FOR THE WICKED . . . OR THE CURSED.\nSLATE 
I didn't mean to steal the Bloodstone from the De Morel's crypt. 
Scratch that, I did mean to steal it. 
Until I realized it was a curse-magnet that only comes off if I, along with a jolly trio, successfully defeat four curses. 
If any of us fail, I'm dead. 
I've never been a glass half-empty sort of person, but my glass looks in dire need of a refill right about now. 
The only highlight of this wicked treasure hunt: feisty, entitled Cadence de Morel.\nCADENCE 
I was raised on tales of magic, in a small town reputed to be the birthplace of French witchcraft. 
Did I believe all the stories I heard? Absolutely not. I mean, if magic existed, Maman wouldn't have died, and Papa wouldn't be stuck in a wheelchair, right? 
Wrong. 
The night Slate Ardoin waltzes into my life, wearing a ring he stole from my mother's grave, I call him a monster. 
But then I meet real ones, and Slate, well . . . he becomes something else to me. 
Something frustrating to live with but impossible to live without. 
Something I will fight for, no matter the cost.\n*Warning: profuse cursing (and not just the magical kind).

Some curses can’t be outrun.\nThe secret to Redd’s past is locked away in a 400-year-old box that mysteriously appears every year on her birthday. For her entire life, her mother has kept them running from whatever lurks inside it. But Redd’s had enough of not knowing who she is.

When the link with Redd is unlocked, the village council believes they have a solution to simplify their darkest task. John is sent to find the one girl who could possibly save them…it only requires leading her to her death.

Redd, John, and Eleanor's stories twine together in a mashup of urban and historical fantasy, delving into the nuances of good and evil, the price of loyalty, and the extremes we will go to for those we love.
