From a multi-USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author comes this romantasy (romantic fantasy), the second in a 6-book series."I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this series! Beautiful words have created a stunning world and rich, engrossing characters." "Regal. Moody. Soulful. Beautiful." "I'm deeply sucked into this series."When a palace maid is attacked, Josie and the captain of the guards investigate together. Since one of the suspects is a foreign diplomat and magic expert, they use the opportunity to learn more about sorcery. But it soon becomes clear that he has his own agenda. With unrest in the village, and nobles vying for the king's attention, an undercurrent of danger pervades the air. But the most dangerous man of all may be the king himself, because every clue points to him knowing more than he lets on. As tensions both in and out of the glittering Glancian palace rise, the tension between the captain and Josie is a distraction - because how can a man with no past make promises for the future?

After five centuries, a loyal guard returns from the dead without the king he once served--and loved--to find the world and his place within it much changed. Ambrose aka the Grim Wolf of Belgrave spent his life striving to be a hero--until he died a villain in the name of the medieval witch king he was passionately devoted to. Now, after hundreds of years, he's back from the dead without his beloved king. And the vow he once swore has him obligated to Emery Vale, a necromancer-in-training, who's tasked him with murdering his rival and nemesis. But Ambrose has other plans. He hopes to bring the ruler of his kingdom--and his heart--back from the grave so they can finally enjoy the love they'd once yearned for. All he has to do first is kill one other person: Emery . . . The more time Ambrose spends with his new master though, the more his hunger for Emery's blood is turning into a hunger for Emery. And as he continues to search for a way to resurrect the witch king, he might just discover their connection wasn't all that it seemed. Praise for A Spell for Heartsickness "Reeves's remarkably assured debut delivers a queer, witchy romp with deep feelings." --Publishers Weekly "As comfy and satisfying as 'the taste of hot stew on a rainy night.'" --Kirkus Reviews
