Book Description
All my life I've been told by my mother I'm promised in marriage to a king from another world. Understandably no one believed her and I grew up and let my mother's "delusion" go in an attempt at a normal life. However, soon after I've gotten engaged to my boyfriend, a darkly handsome and mysterious King Alvar appears and tells me the time has come for me to marry him and become his queen. I find myself whisked away to Alvar's strange world, a fantastical land shrouded by a dark past of curses, monsters, and dangerous secrets. But marrying a man I barely know and adapting to a strange new world is nothing compared to learning that the fates of both my world and Alvar's rest on MY shoulders.

Book Description
You’ve never, ever read a story like this. Ashley Young is stuck in an unsatisfying marriage and a dead-end job. But when a sexually transmitted plague breaks out in her small town—one that slowly transforms everyone infected into crazed zombielike sex fiends—everything about her life changes. Facing quarantine, National Guard barricades, the onset of winter, and a rapidly spreading, mysterious sex plague, Ashley and everyone else in her small Colorado town find their deepest feelings for one another surfacing…both amorously and violently. When everyone in Ashley’s life begins taking comfort in one another’s arms, no one really knows who’s infected and who’s not. And because the disease perpetuates itself as an aphrodisiac, sex—the very thing that offers comfort—only contributes to spreading the plague. In a crumbling world with little to lose, Ashley begins to discover a resilience she didn’t know she possessed and a strength she’s never had before. Her newly acquired agency may come at a price, however, when Ashley must ultimately choose between her own survival and saving the people she loves. DEAD IN BED by Bailey Simms delivers a tour-de-force series that’s as emotionally incisive as it is shockingly sexy, as heartbreaking as it is hilarious, and as frightful as it is impossible to put down.
