The Black Orchid
Updated at Sep 15, 2021, 03:51
An old friend drained of his blood. A shortage of black silk. Rory and Longinus face their greatest crisis yet. Longinus is besides himself. Someone has bought all the black silk in Damsport, so he has to make do with grey. Unacceptable, given that an assassin in grey is as ridiculous as a bulldog in culottes. Conspiracies don’t get more dire than this. Of course, there’s also the fact that Rory’s oldest friend has been found drained of his blood. And that clues seem to indicate that Myran has returned just as an important diplomat visits Damsport. Those clues take Rory and Longinus to a new brothel in town called the Black Orchid. That it’s decked in black silk proves that something nefarious is going on. That its clientele tends to disappear is mere confirmation of that fact. What is going on behind the brothel’s gilded doors? And more importantly, can Longinus get to their supply of silk? Dive into a captivating and fun adventure packed with quirky characters and snappy banter. Scroll back up and buy The Black Orchid now!   “I absolutely adore this world, these characters, and the exciting stories that Ms Jeanjean weaves in this series.

The Bloodless Assassin
Updated at Jul 30, 2021, 00:21
An assassin with a fear of blood. A mouthy street girl. They can’t seriously be the city’s only hope? Being Damsport’s most elegant assassin is hard work. There are devilish poisons to concoct, secret identities to maintain…and tailoring to consider. But most importantly Longinus must keep his fear of blood a secret or his reputation will be ruined. When Rory discovers Longinus’s blood phobia, she makes him a deal. Train her, and she won’t ruin his reputation. What she doesn’t expect is that her new master has more eccentricities than a stray dog has fleas. And that in aligning herself with him, she now finds herself in the crosshairs of another, far more dangerous assassin. Now, not only does Rory have to keep herself and Longinus alive, she has to stop a conspiracy that threatens to bring the city to its knees. An impossible task? It's even harder with Longinus under the delusion that he’s the hero of the story. That would be funny, if it didn't make Rory want to throttle him. Do you like strong heroines, quirky characters, and unlikely friendships? Are you a fan of richly imagined worlds and snappy dialogue that's full of banter? Then you’ll love the Bloodless Assassin. Scroll up and get it now. “I AM FLAILING, THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD!” - Emily Wrayburn, Goodreads “This book had me smiling throughout, laughing out loud at times but most importantly itching to read the next page." - Rebecca England, Goodreads "Rory and Longinius are amazingly lovable, though super quirky characters." - Jane Firebaugh, Goodreads "I have just met a new favourite author with a new set of favourite characters! I just loved this fun story with its quirky characters." - Gwynn White, Goodreads
