‘The In-Between’ by Molly O’Dowd

£12.99

In her final year of university, Tenaya wants only to escape. With her degree, she plans to leave her town, break free from her abusive stepmother and boss, and start fresh with her brother. But her curiosity about magic deepens when the “Outliars”—a rebel group—recruit Tenaya and her friends to unlock a forbidden magical object: a Veturcaela.

They travel to new realms, where Tenaya meets a powerful being, bound to her by magic, unseen by anyone else. Together, they navigate love that transcends mortal and magical realms. As their destinies intertwine, they face a hard truth: keeping their secrets safe might cost them everything.

About the Author, Molly O’Dowd

Molly O’Dowd, a Bristol-based author, has always been drawn to storytelling, inspired by the books that shaped her childhood—starting with The Girl Who Could Fly and later The Trylle Trilogy, The Dark Elements, and Clockwork Angel. A longtime lover of fantasy, she explores LGBTQ+ romances in her own fantastical worlds, aiming to fill the gap in representation within the genre. Influenced by anime and series like Re:Zero and Arcane, as well as authors like TJ Klune, she blends magic, romance, and complex interpersonal dynamics in her writing. When she’s not working on her next book, Molly enjoys painting, drawing, and unwinding with her favorite TV series. She hopes readers walk away from her stories with a love for her characters—and maybe a bit of impatience for the sequel she’s already writing.
