""A darkly decadent descent into desire. A masterful exploration of faerie bargains, ancestral burdens, and power struggles woven between the pages of a thrilling tale you can't help but be swept up in.""--Hazel McBride, author of A Fate Forged in Fire ""In this lavishly erotic fantasy, Gibson brings to life the magic of the Scottish countryside... . Gibson sets the heat to high on the way to a surprising ending that will have readers clamoring for more. Fans of dark fantasy romance won't want to miss this."" --Publishers Weekly ""A drizzly, moody, and lustrously carnal rendition of a storybook tale, Savage Blooms is the holy grail for lovers of dark academia and faery magic alike. By the time I got to the epilogue, I was ready to bite into the pages like they were made of faery fruit, just so I'd never have to leave."" --Sierra Simone, author of Priest ""With Savage Blooms, Gibson cements herself as one of the strongest and most unique voices in gothic romance. This dangerous and decadent subversion of a found family is fresh, unabashedly queer, and gripping from the very first rain-soaked page. Gibson is a ferociously talented writer at the top of her game."" --Sydney J. Shields, author of An Arcane Study of Stars ""An Education in Malice is an ode to girlhood; ribbons, blood, poetry, and rage. Gibson's fang-sharp prose and unflinching honesty create a delicate and fearless exploration of loneliness, love, and--as the bridge between those two absolutes--longing.""--Sydney J. Shields, author of The Honey Witch, on An Education In Malice ""A Dowry of Blood is a delectable jewel of a tale, shimmering with dark, beautiful prose. Gibson balances mournful gothic possession with heartfelt emotional authenticity for a thrilling ride from start to finish.""--Tori Bovalino, author of Not Good for Maidens, on A Dowry of Blood ""A Dowry of Blood is an intoxicating perfume that lingers--an undying love story where beauty and horror clasp hands.""--Rachel Gillig, New York Times bestselling author, on A Dowry of Blood ""A dizzying nightmare of a romance that will leave you aching, angry and ultimately hopeful.""--Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author, on A Dowry of Blood ""A powerful take of possession and liberation.

A Dowry of Blood left me breathless.""--Alexis Henderson, author of The Year of the Witching, on A Dowry of Blood ""An isolated women's college, a Gothic aesthetic that would make the Brontë sisters proud, an all-consuming passion between sapphic academic rivals...what's not to like here? Light a candle to maximize the moody vibes and dive in.""--People on An Education In Malice ""Dark, lush and heartrendingly romantic.""--Lyndall Clipstone, author of Lakesedge, on A Dowry of Blood ""Dark, seductive...A messy, in-depth portrait of emotional abuse that nails Constanta's complex intermingling of love, pain, fear, and anger in mesmerizing prose. Thorny, fast-paced, and unabashedly queer, this is sure to draw readers in.""--Publishers Weekly on A Dowry of Blood ""From sinful all-night salons to hedonistic Halloween parties, Laura's world thrums with dark pleasures that will leave you wanting more.""--Kirkus on An Education in Malice ""Seductive, lyrical, and rich with period detail, this daring retelling casts the Harkers' story aside to follow Dracula's medieval bride and her tangled romance with his consorts over the centuries. The horror--pulsing and beautiful--comes as much from Constanta's insights into her husband's psychology as it does from bloodlust. A dark triumph.""--Mary McMyne, author of The Book of Gothel, on A Dowry of Blood ""Stunningly gorgeous and devastatingly romantic, you won't want to miss this one!""--Katee Robert, New York Times bestselling author, on A Dowry of Blood
