Today on the site I’m delighted to reveal the cover of The Third Wish by T.E. Forest, a suspenseful New Adult Urban Fantasy with a polyam romance between gay, pan, and demi-romantic gray-ace MCs releasing from Hamley Books on September 16, 2026! Here’s the story:
In a magical hotel that hosts a yearly competition, three desperate people have entered to earn a shot at winning the grand prize: a wish. But when the competition turns deadly, the mysterious hotel manager Vana puts them into teams, forcing them to work together.
A bitter rivalry that may turn into something more.
But a wish is not a prize to give up easily, and Day, Silas and Kayleigh soon find themselves at a crossroads. What will they give up to win … and will it be worth the cost?
For fans of Squid Game and The Hunger Games, who were desperate for more kissing, The Third Wish is an urban New Adult adventure story that will stay with you for some time to come.
And here’s the dreamy cover by DesignsbyLotte!
T.E. Forest (Tamara Envie) was born in the Dutch countryside, where she grew up questioning and redefining ‘normal’. She’s an avid bookstagrammer, gamer, and cosplayer on a constant journey of self-discovery and usually in the midst of some existential crisis. Always loving languages and stories, she graduated with a Master of Arts in Literary Studies at the University of Leiden.
The Third Wish is her debut novel.
When nineteen-year-old Sasha’s first album throws her into stardom, her fans become obsessed with discovering who inspired her love songs. Except, Sasha is aroace-spec (aromantic, asexual), and she’s not interested in romance (unless it comes in the shape of a slowburn enemies-to-lovers book or a star-crossed-lovers manga). Her music is all about her favorite love stories, not her own.
A joyous picture book biography of José Sarria, a pioneering activist, drag queen, and the first openly gay candidate to run for public office in the United States
Covid lockdown is over, but A’s world feels smaller than ever. Coming out as trans didn’t exactly go well, and most days, he barely leaves his bedroom, let alone the house. But the low point of A’s life isn’t online school, missing his bar mitzvah, or the fact that his parents monitor his phone like hawks—it’s the weekly Save Our Sons and Daughters meetings his parents all but drag him to.
Jaliya Powell has never had a real adventure, a real boyfriend, or spoken up for herself. She’s never even been kissed. Despite being valedictorian of her high school class, Jaliya is used to fading into the background.
