ARE YOU READY TO ENROL INTO THE HOUSE OF MARIONNE?

Quell Marionne has lived her entire life on the run, all in order to hide the deadly
magic that flows through her veins.

She was born cursed with Toushana - a perilous dark magic.

And the sentence for having it? Death . . .

When her secret is discovered by a merciless assassin, Quell fears time is running out.

There is only one place that can save her: The House of Marionne. Run by her estranged grandmother, the school trains their students to enter The Order, a society of magical elites. Quell knows this may be the key to burying her forbidden magic forever.

But if her Toushana is discovered, she will be killed.

Soon Quell realises that hiding who you are is even harder, especially when she meets the handsome, brooding Jordon.

And it isn't long before she's forced to choose between her true nature and everyone she's grown to love.

Brimming with ballgowns and betrayal, magic and mystery, decadence and darkness, House of Marionne is perfect for readers who crave morally grey characters, irresistible romance and dark academia.

About the Author: J. Elle is the New York Times, and indie, bestselling and award-winning author of multiple books including Against The Tide, an original prequel tie-in to The Little Mermaid live action film. Her debut duology, Wings of Ebony, dubbed "an incredible debut" by NPR and best fantasy book by POPSUGAR, was a 2022 NAACP Image Award Nominee for Outstanding Literary Work for Youth and Teens, an Amazon Editor's pick for Best Science Fiction and Fantasy, and a Barnes and Noble YA Book Club Pick. The former educator credits her nomadic lifestyle and humble inner-city beginnings as inspiration for her novels. When she's not writing, Elle can be found on the hunt for desserts without chocolate, drowning herself in regency romance reads and shows, and looking for any excuse to wear a tiara.
