Surfacing
Bronwyn Green
A year after Tabby Nolan’s sister vanished from the Lake Michigan shore with her boyfriend, Liam, Tabby visits the spot where the two were last seen– and finds herself pulled into the crumbling world of Avalon.
Since his disappearance, Liam has been trapped in the mythical land, with no link to the world he knew. Now, their shared memories of Tabby’s missing sister are all they can cling to as Avalon dies around them.
But Tabby doesn’t want to be a replacement for her sister, and her growing attachment to Liam feels like a betrayal. As Avalon fades around them, Liam and Tabby must rely on each other– or be lost with the ancient kingdom forever.
Albion’s Circle: The Deepest Cut
Jessica Jarman
For nineteen years, Anna has been plagued by dreams of lives lived only in legend. Finally free from the family that believed her hopeless and worthless, she’s ready to start her life over—alone.
When Anna meets an enigmatic stranger claiming to be the legendary wizard Merlin, she is forced to question the very reality she’s struggled to accept. With the mythic figures from her dreams intruding on her waking life, Anna learns that she’s been reborn to fight an ancient evil alongside King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
Caught in an ages old conflict, Anna is the key to stopping a dark magic that will destroy the world—and Merlin wants to make sure that this time, Anna isn’t alone.
A Choice Fit For A Queen
Jenny Trout
writing as
Abigail Barnette
For perpetual overachiever Madison Lane, a summer studying Arthurian mythology in the Welsh countryside with professor Thomas Evans is a dream come true, and the adventure of a lifetime.
Of course, the enormous crush Madison developed on the professor after a semester of his lectures at U of M has absolutely nothing to do with her desire to learn more about the enduring legend of Camelot. At least, that’s what she’s telling her parents.
When Madison meets fellow student Rhys Crewe, sparks fly, throwing her plans for wild fling with Professor Evans completely out of whack—as do her unexpectedly complicated feelings for Thomas. With tales of Arthur and Lancelot haunting her every waking moment, Madison has to make the most difficult choice of her life.

Awesomeness, I look forward to reading it ladies.
Can’t wait to read this. I commented before that I’ve never been into Arthurian stuff, but this makes me want to try it. And then maybe I’ll get a favorite character…or a new obsession. Or both 🙂
Favorite Arthurian character = Nymue!!
My favorite is definitely Gawain!
It pains me to see that your author pic is the only good quality picture. That being said, awesome cover!
Sorry, it was the only resolution I had. 🙁 I wasn’t trying to show off.
Haha no, it’s a great picture!
I’ve always been partial to Merlin in the Arthurian mythos. I guess I just have Daddy issues or something. 😉
Favorite is absolutely Merlin. Has been since before the BBC series.
Favorite of mine is Merlin (shocker, right?) But I was fascinated with the character long before Merlin (BBC series) came out. Though I’d be lying if I Merlin portrayed by Colin Morgan didn’t fuel said fascination. 😉
So it’s been fabulous fun writing a Merlin character of my own. 🙂 And very exciting to be working with Jen and Bron on this collection.
I also love Merlin 🙂
My favorite character is Merlin from the originals.
I’m looking forward to reading the anthology! I have loved Arthurian literature since high school. Like Robin, my favorite character is Gawain.
The Mists of Avalon was the first exposure I had to the Arthurian myths. Consequently, Morgan le Fay has always been my favourite character.
Random question: What’s your estimated timeline for The Baby?
I’m not trying to sound super impatient – I get that you’re a super busy person. I’m just debating buying the first tow books now and the last two later, vs. waiting and buying them all at once. (Buying 2 or more at a time gets me free shipping).
So yeah, no rush, but just curious so I can decide whether I’m patient enough to wait for the whole series 😉
The next book in the series is actually going to be The Ex, and The Baby will come after that. I’m tentatively scheduling it for spring of 2015, but there’s a chance it could come out sooner.
Yay, thanks!
Wait, so it’s five books now? (Boss, Girlfriend, Ex, Baby, Bride?) I’m not sure if I missed that or forgot, but either way, I don’t know how. Even better! 😀
Gender-bent Tristram in the Camelot 3000 graphic novel. Mostly anyway. The whole thing has some squickyness as far as gender roles and stuff goes but since it’s 30 years old I let myself love it anyway.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again, this is a very nice cover! Love all you guys! Look forward to reading this. Yes, I do love the Arthurian characters. All of them. I have to go read now!
I don’t know if I have a single favorite Arthurian character, but just to be different, I’m going to cast my vote for King Pellinore, because his eternal hunt for the Questing Beast amuses me. 🙂
So excited for this one! There are too many Arthurian characters for me to pick my favorite, but I love them all regardless. 🙂
I’m going to echo the others and agree that Merlin rocks. 😉
My first exposure to Arthurian legend was The Sword in the Stone, and I always loved Madame Mim 🙂 More classically, I generally like Merlin.
You have piqued my interest, madam!
So looking forward to this anthology! I have enjoyed reading the Arthurian legends since I was a teenager. I adore The Mists of Avalon.
My favorite characters are Morgan le Fay, Merlin, and Nimue.
I do like the Merlin miniseries starring Sam Elliott as Merlin. 🙂
