If you loved how Miranda’s forced marriage to the masked Lord Archer slowly warms into trust and loyalty as they hunt a killer, you’ll savor how Wynter Atrialan weds Khamsin for political necessity and gradually falls, storm and ice giving way to heat. Like Archer’s deadly secret, Wynter’s curse endangers everyone around him, and the couple’s growing partnership becomes the key to surviving court plots and elemental magic. The emotional arc—strangers to allies to all-in—is as satisfying as in Firelight.

In Firelight, Miranda and Archer stalk London’s fog to clear his name as bodies fall and rumors of monsters swirl. In Soulless, Alexia Tarabotti navigates drawing rooms and dark alleys to unravel disappearances and murders tied to vampires, werewolves, and secret cabals. The blend of gaslit streets, sharp banter, and a conspiracy beneath polite society mirrors the hunt Miranda and Archer undertake—only with a different flavor of wit and worldbuilding you’ll likely adore.

If Archer’s masked menace—protector one moment, potential monster the next—hooked you, Desmond Flynn, the Bargainer, will too. Like Archer hiding what his curse has made of him, Des carries old debts and darker motives as he returns to Callie’s life to collect. Their chemistry crackles through confessions and compromises, much as Miranda and Archer’s bond strengthens while they confront the truth behind his curse.

Miranda’s destructive fire gift and Archer’s uncanny condition feel like whispers of myth haunting real streets. In The Golem and the Jinni, a woman made of clay and a fire-born being move through 1890s New York’s immigrant neighborhoods, their secret natures shaping quiet, magical encounters. The low-key wonder and historical texture echo Firelight’s gaslit ambiance—only here the mystery is identity and belonging rather than a killer, with the same elegant, restrained enchantment.

If the shadow-drenched alleys, corpse-strewn clues, and the beastly truth beneath Archer’s mask thrilled you, Shanghai’s monster-ridden streets will, too. Rival heirs Juliette and Roma navigate a city tearing itself apart as a mysterious contagion turns citizens violent. The atmosphere—opulence over rot, love risking ruin—channels the same dark glamour and danger that surrounded Miranda and Archer’s hunt through London.
