ACOFAE Podcast presents: Shadows and Lies: "Madly."

Jane has had enough. She's fled her arranged marriage, murdered a bit here and there, been manipulated, been powerless, and now you're telling her WHAT about her trusted WHAT?! The reveal of the decade that left Laura Marie and Jessica Marie reeling is just one of the surprises that await the reader in Shadows and Lies, the follow-up to Ruin and Roses. Jane is in a new land after her flight from marriage and now has a price on her head. Barred from her own country, Jane has no choice but to lean on the allies that saved her even though their motives are...vague. If you wanted more politics, more training montages, more travel, and more spice then you are in luck. Friendships, sisterhood, and acceptance are themes that we love at ACOFAE and they are on full display here. "Once upon a time there was a boy with a thief’s heart and a girl with emerald eyes...Do they fall in love?"

UPDATE: [April 21, 2023] At the time of this recording, author went by "she/her" pronouns and now goes by she/they.
