City of Mirth and Malice
Return to the post-industrial age magical Isle of Lynchaven for the action-packed conclusion of Nico and Milla’s enemies-to-lovers story where their city—and love—is at stake.
Some debts are not so easily repaid—or forgiven.
Nicolai Attano has achieved everything he’s ever wanted: full control over the Iron Saint Railway. Never did he imagine he’d want anything more than power—not until his wife, Camilla Marchese.
When Camilla is abducted, he’ll do anything to get her back. But with a city that’s been poisoned against him, he’s forced to seek the aid of a disreputable black-market dealer to ensure his wife’s rescue. Despite the cost being higher than ever, Nico doesn’t think twice. The collateral? His life.
Meanwhile, Camilla fights to gain control over her newfound powers and save herself, if her magic doesn’t destroy her first. The only light in the hellish prison and brutal trials her alchemist captor puts her through is the hope of once again seeing her family . . . and the husband who stole her heart.

Alexis L. Menard
By day, Alexis L. Menard walks the quiet halls of a Louisiana hospital, caring for patients and chasing calm. By night, she builds worlds where calm rarely exists. Between shifts and motherhood, she writes the kind of stories she used to daydream about, gritty, spellbound tales where love and power are always at odds and no one escapes unscathed.
Menard’s background as a registered nurse shapes more than her schedule, it shapes her storytelling. Her characters bleed, heal, and carry invisible scars that feel real because she understands the weight of both pain and recovery. Whether set in a crumbling empire or a post-industrial city pulsing with forbidden magic, her books balance intensity with tenderness, danger with desire.
