No and other love stories

Kirsty Logan

A collection of dark and delicious love stories for your enjoyment, from the award-winning author of Now She's a Witch.

Can 'no' be a declaration of love? What happens when love is brutal, dangerous, and all-consuming? In this gorgeous, disturbing collection, women navigate the complexities and cruelties of desire across time and space, from a medieval abbey to a Victorian parlor to a 1990s high school. * A pregnant mother feeds raw meat to a wasps' nest in her shed. * A pair of gay lovers use ghostly possession to steal money from lascivious men. * One woman in wartime London discovers she loves her husband far more as a ghost. * A teenage girl becomes infatuated with a bloodthirsty succubus. This intensely atmospheric, surprising, and darkly funny collection is a flavor-rich feast from a brilliant writer in complete command of the form. 'Utterly obsessive.' 'Brutal, strange, and spicy.' Lucy Rose, author of 'Pregnancy'
