Fablehouse

Product Information

I'm someone who personally doesn't care for 'pretty prose' so when each and every action is described in such vivid detail I was bored. (I have underlined the portions I felt could have been made shorter) If you like this kind of writing, this might be the book for you. Nothing comes free, Fable. We both know that surviving means sometimes doing things that haunt you.”

The ever-changing violence and claustrophobic isolation kept me wary and constantly on edge. It became a stalemate of epic proportions as Kas’s mercurial behavior and stubbornness derailed their progress, while the feral sex was brutal, savage, beautiful, and erotic – even moreso because they both wanted it that way, which made it maddeningly glorious. I couldn’t even guess where this story was headed, and just let it take me at its own pace. It was all about finding love and happiness and how elusive it is for Gem to show it to Kas and for Kas to embrace and believe it in their sheltered little world, even as the reader frets over Kas’s condition. Will they win or lose? My hopes for this couple were dashed repeatedly, but it only takes a cataclysmic event for it all to come tumbling down. Just when I thought they were getting somewhere… Pepper writes organically, so her characters are not haloed in rainbow and glitter emotions, not cushioned in branded stuff or high end lifestyle with jetset setting. Her characters are stripped down to bare Raw and earthy human sentiments. A simple wish for happiness gets taken for granted by us daily and holds an ocean of pain for Kas.

All our trespasser Gemma wanted was to go home, to reunite with her mother and much loved brother, she'd fought for that, she'd dreamed of it, but when it's finally there for the taking she decides to stay even though hatred brewed between them, lust and want tethered them together. No matter where I went, I’d never get home. Because home was a ship that was at the bottom of the sea, where my mother’s bones lay sleeping. Norry writes from the heart with true passion and beauty. Her latest novel, Fablehouse is a gorgeous celebration of finding your place, belonging and believing in yourself.

Our war was deleted. This never-ending loneliness. This inability to be happy… to be free. I couldn’t live without her. I loved her and that was the worst thing I could ever do.”The first book ended up with a cliffhanger and literally Kas fell on a cliff. The second book opened up to Gemma's struggle, despite being assaulted by Kas she still helped him and nurse him to safety.

Because you see, they live the life of the sea, and there are only two things strictly forbidden and deemed deadly on a ship: love and drunkenness. And when your ship is your life and your life is that of a pirate with enemies watching you for any weakness to exploit, you don’t have the luxury of love. To love is to jump off a cliff and hope you hit water rather than land, knowing even the water will likely drown you. And the characters’ understanding and fear of this is what makes their love all the more decadent. For the first time, Fable found herself truly alone, with nobody to care for her. She had recently lost her Mother, as well, during a terrible storm. The author is planning a sequel to this lovely novel, and I am so glad. She has created a wonderful cast of characters who deserve to have their story expanded even more. The book is a glorious mix of adventure, fantasy, social history and Arthurian legend, and I am already looking forward to the Roamers' next adventure!Unforgettable … powerful and extraordinary … Absolutely magical' Zillah Bethell, author of The Shark Caller
