Baa Baa Black Market
Baa Baa Black Market... Have you any soul?
Brietta Drover has spent her entire life in the darkness due to her sensitivity to the sun and general lack of morals. To occupy her many days alone in her windowless room, she takes up a small hobby... Running an underground crime network for harvesting and trading illegal magic stones.
Business is booming in the underground market, until word spreads that Brietta's fiercest competitor has sent a spy to unmask her true identity. Most ladies would consider this a threat, but a good business woman sees it as a way to investigate her rival.
Dimitri has one mission. Get the true name of Lord Dame, and get back to his own Jewel Lord, Boy. He and Brietta share zero trust, but when they're forced to share an assignment, the true investigations can begin. Three bags of magic stones have been stolen from the Jewel Lords, but the culprit is as mysterious as the market itself. If one was stolen from each lord, who is really to blame?
Will Brietta be able to expand her reach? Or will Munster and Dame fall to Lord Boy's games?

Abigail Manning
Abigail Manning writes fantasy with the comforting warmth of a bedtime story and the sense of wonder that first draws readers into magical worlds. Her novels are filled with enchanted kingdoms, hidden destinies, courageous heroines, and romances that unfold amid adventure, creating stories that feel inspired by the fairy tales many readers grew up loving while still offering surprises of their own.
Rather than treating classic folklore as something fixed and untouchable, she approaches it as a living tradition. Familiar legends become starting points rather than boundaries. A tale that once seemed complete may reveal an entirely different perspective, a forgotten character, or a new path through a magical realm. This creative curiosity has become one of the defining qualities of her work, allowing her to craft fantasy romances that feel both recognizable and refreshingly original.
