Half a Soul
Miss Dora Ettings lost half her soul to a fairy, leaving her unable to feel emotions as society expects. Entering the London Season brings her into the orbit of the irritable Lord Sorcier, Elias Wilder, whose magical work exposes injustices polite society ignores. Their investigation makes Dora's unusual clarity an advantage rather than merely a defect. Charming and thoughtful, this Regency fantasy romance is a lovely rainy-day read about social conscience, neurodivergent-coded experience, prickly affection, and a heroine discovering that half a soul does not mean half a person.
