Thank you so much for celebrating Dear Hades‘s release with us!

We are honored that so many of you shared this book, posted lovely pictures, left reviews, and attended our release party.

We couldn’t have done it without you!

(If you shared or plan on sharing a post, please tag us @L2L2Publishing so we can feature you!)

We love to publish the kinds of books we love to read, that speak to us, that are great fun, or that we can’t stop thinking about. The entire Dear Hero series feels that way to our team.

We hope you will agree.

Not only that, our authors are the best, and we are so pleased to have been able to publish these books by Hope Bolinger and Alyssa Roat.

We’re excited to bring you more wonderful books!

Three releases are scheduled for 2024, and we can’t wait to tell you all about them.

In the meantime, take a look at our bookstore to see if there are any titles you’d like to catch up on while we get these new books ready for you to devour.

Happy reading!

And please leave a review of Dear Hades!

~The L2L2 Publishing Team

Coming soon: Lena’s Privilege by Kristen Stieffel, Silence by Laura L. Zimmerman, and Quell the Nightingale by Michele Israel Harper. Which new book are you most excited about?

Nothing Found

Happy release day, Hope Bolinger and Alyssa Roat!

This wonderful book is finally out in the world!

Dear Hades is a spinoff story from the Dear Hero and Dear Henchman duology, and it can be read without reading any other book in the series.

You can get it now from your favorite retailer, or you can scroll down to the bottom of this post to buy it directly from L2L2 Publishing.

We hope you love this fun new story as much as we do!

About the book:

7:30 PM

Persephone: You ever wanna murder a deity?

7:34 PM

Hades: . . . Let me guess, your mom?

Persephone: Wow, babe. You’re great at this game.

Rising from the Underworld into the twenty-first century may have seemed like a second chance for Medusa, but love is elusive when heroes would rather slay a monster than date her.

Disliked for his dire prophecies, blind prophet Tiresias would rather make a new life for himself than join heroes on another monster-hunting venture. Perhaps meet someone . . .

The two match on DearHades, a dating app for resurrected monsters, shades, and demigods curated by Hades and Persephone, whose fate hangs in the balance of the app’s success. No pressure.

Caught amongst meddling gods, murderous heroes, and a classic Greek bet, Medusa and Tiresias may have signed up for more than a dating profile.

You are invited to an online release party!

This party is tomorrow at 7:30 PM EST! And even better? It’s online, so anyone can join.

>>> RSVP right here for FB to remind you when the event starts. <<<

Then join us at our online release party group when the party starts for lots of bookish giveaways.

Hosts Alyssa Roat, Hope Bolinger, and Michele Israel Harper are excited to chat with anyone who attends and give away many of their favorite books.

See you there!

We can’t wait to hear what you think of this new release from L2L2 Publishing.

And please leave a review!

Happy reading,

~The L2L2 Publishing Team

We are thrilled to bring you another glorious hardback featuring Laura Hollingsworth’s cover art.

Although this edition includes the story Beast Hunter already released by L2L2 Publishing, it also includes six brand-new stories set in the Beast Hunters storyworld.

About the book:

Two children lost in the woods.

Red shoes that won’t stop dancing.

An innkeeper harried by the ghosts of her past.

Fey-made clothing that only the worthy may see.

A man with a beard as blue as his temper is hot.

The legend of the great white wolf.

And the hunt of a lifetime.

Beast Hunter and Other Fairy Tales turns beloved stories inside out, shatters expectations, and offers new adventures, delightful twists, and unexpected endings that will keep you coming back for more.

There is also an exclusive hardcover for Silence the Siren: Book Two in the Beast Hunters available now, and there will soon be one for Kill the Beast. We are also planning a special edition for Quell the Nightingale, once we have a release date for book three.

Save the Date!

We will also be having a small online release party this Thursday from 8-9 PM EST, right here at this link, where we have all our other release parties. (Including the upcoming one for Dear Hades!)

We hope you love these new stories as much as we do!

Happy reading!

About the Book

Every day is the same for Cosette. Get up, clean, make breakfast, and meet her stepmère’s and stepsisters’ every demand.

That is, until an encounter with a fairy of the forest—or is she a witch?—and an invitation to a fête in honor of Monsieur Gautier promises Cosette’s life is about to become the beautiful fairy tale of her dreams.

Or so the story should go.

Except her fairy godmère demands a high price for her help, one Cosette isn’t willing to pay. Her stepsisters are as afraid of their mère as Cosette is. Can she truly leave them to their fate? And the handsome Monsieur Gautier hides a dreadful secret, one she’s desperate to know—if only she can get close enough.

Cosette is faced with a choice: Should she feign ignorance and accept her happily ever after? Or dig deeper to find what may be lurking beneath?

About the Book

Huntress Ro LeFèvre is offered a job to hunt a pest plaguing the Seven Seas. A siren has been sinking the king of Angleterre’s ships, and in turn, vast amounts of his wealth.

Fleeing heartbreak, Ro gladly accepts, but there’s just one problem. The king will credit the Marquis de la Valère, and no other women are allowed on the voyage.

Ro will just see about that.

Hiring an all-female crew without the king’s knowledge, Ro hopes they will follow her to the Caribbean, not take the gold and flee.

But when Ro is plunged deep into the ocean by the siren she’s being paid to kill, presented the sirens’ side of the story at knife point, and pressed to join them or die, Ro must decide whether to complete her mission, join the sirens, or something in between.

Before the sirens sink the ship full of men above.

This fast-paced, high-action adventure is a Little Mermaid reimagining and the second book in the Beast Hunter series.

“Ro is back, and I am here for it. Battered from her previous adventures, she launches headfirst into a new one full of excitement, betrayal, and numerous twists. I absolutely loved the tie-ins from various fairytales and Harper’s unique spins on classic stories. If you want a story full of blooming romance, friendship, and sacrificial love, you’ll want to dive head-first into this book.”
– Hope Bolinger, author of the Blaze trilogy and the Dear Hero duology
“Silence the Siren is a fresh take on a classic fairy tale that I did not see coming! Michele Israel Harper weaves a wildly creative tale that will have your heart beating fast with excitement one moment and then breaking the next. Ro is the heroine we’ve all been waiting for. You’ll be rooting for her as she takes on man and sea in this odyssey-esque adventure. Can’t wait to see what Harper does with the rest of the series!”
– Julie Hall, USA Today Bestselling author of the multiple award-winning Life After series
“Michele Israel Harper continues her unique spin on fairy tales well-loved. While the Huntress dives into waters unknown, there is enough familiar and new to keep readers invested in this intricate and expanding world that feels almost as real as our own history.”
– Derrick Elchers, author of The Battle for Art
“Silence the Siren takes readers on a high seas adventure that sets personalities from all over the fairytale spectrum on a crash course with peril and betrayal. Michele Israel Harper offers a delightful cast of characters who struggle with complex emotions, tight dilemmas, the very real frustrations of their own limitations. The story’s deft weaving of resonant retelling and original twists will keep readers enthralled to the last page.”
– Rebecca P. Minor, fantasy author, artist, and Realm Makers founder
“Silence the Siren does not fall into the fairy tale trap of simple good and evil, but features a protagonist who insists there are two sides to a story—and then is frustrated when neither is as honorable and noble as pretended. Perseverance and honesty are as important as strength and ferocity (although we get those, too!). And it’s all in a fascinating world where multiple fairy tales mingle and tangle.”
– Laura VanArendonk Baugh, award-winning author of The Songweaver’s Vow and the Shard of Elan series
“Michele Harper creates a marvelous world in Silence the Siren, where French fairy tales are spun into something new, their golden story-threads woven into lavish, compelling tapestries. From pirates to princesses to sirens, things are never quite what they seem. Enemies become friends and vice versa, magic turns up in the most unexpected places, and the promise of true love hovers on the horizon.”
– Merrie Destefano, award-winning author of Shade: The Complete Trilogy

Happy Release Day to Michele Israel Harper!

{See her release-day post here.}

We are pleased to bring you the soft release of Ghostly Vendetta, the prequel novella to Zombie Takeover.

A little about the book itself:

“Dare to spend the night in mysterious Rutherford Hall! When? The 175th anniversary of the Rutherford family’s unsolved murder. Ghosts guaranteed. Cash prize: $5,000. Want more deets? Ask Tyler, Stewart, or James.”

I laughed aloud as I read the flyer. Yeah, right. To think that I, Candace Marshall, world’s biggest scaredy-cat, would go anywhere near some haunted house, much less spend the night in one. I crumpled the stupid thing, pitched it in the nearest trash can, and went on my merry, oblivious, and soon-to-be-scared-out-of-my-mind way.

* * *

Candace Marshall doesn’t do ghosts. Or zombies. Or vampires. Or mummies.

Anything scary, really.

When she finds herself signed up for a dare she’s gone out of her way to avoid, things spiral out of control. Quickly.

Stuck in a mansion alongside a vengeful spirit, a miffed boyfriend, and a room full of people she doesn’t know or even like (if she’s being completely honest here), she must decide whether to act brave or let the coward within show.

Or kill the person who got her involved in the first place.

Join Michele Israel Harper and Laura A. Grace to celebrate this new release at the online release party this evening from 8-10 p.m. EST.

{Link to join here.}

Also, our cover artist, Sara Helwe Digital Arts, created the next cover in the series for a special cover reveal during the party tonight. Hope to see you there!

Happy Reading!
