Second Sky has snapped up two sweeping and sizzling werewolf romance titles by debut author Izzy Barry, with the first book, Red, out now.
Already generating huge excitement among fantasy romance readers, Red has attracted thousands of shelvings on Goodreads and a growing wave of ratings, reviews and online reader love, thanks to its irresistible mix of brooding Alpha heroes, fierce heroines, slow-burn tension, pack politics and high-stakes secrets. Commissioning Editor Sophie Judge acquired World All Language rights, excluding Russian.
Set in the wintry forests of Canada, the first book follows Aloka, a seemingly weak werewolf who is placed under the protection of formidable alpha Stark Lamont, after her brother is killed by humans. The more time she spends with Stark, the harder it becomes for Aloka to resist the dangerous attraction growing between them. But Aloka is hiding a dangerous secret. If it’s discovered, she’ll be hunted down by her own pack. Determined to avenge her brother’s death, she must escape before Stark uncovers the truth.
With readers already clamouring for more, Second Sky is thrilled to bring Barry’s addictive, sizzling take on werewolf romance to the shelves.
Sophie Judge says,
‘I fell head over heels for Izzy’s writing from the very first chapter. Between the gorgeous story packed with slow-burn yearning, an irresistible brooding alpha, and the addictive shifter world, I couldn’t put it down. As a huge fan of paranormal romance, I’m beyond excited to be working with Izzy.’
Izzy Barry says,
‘From the moment I spoke to Sophie about Red, I was excited by her enthusiasm for my debut and everything Second Sky could bring to its future. Finding a team that genuinely loves and supports my work is a dream come true. I’m beyond thrilled to partner with Sophie and Second Sky for The Myth That Burns duology, and I can’t wait to bring Aloka and Stark’s story to even more readers around the world.’
