Never a Hero

These Violent Delights meets This Savage Song in this sequel to the contemporary fantasy Only a Monster from Vanessa Len that New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Garber called "mind-bending, heart wrenching, and unputdownable!" Joan has saved her family and reset the timeline. Now, Nick is just an ordinary boy and Aaron is again her enemy. But Joan must find a way to re-gather her old allies when the real threat returns - the woman who created Nick. Eleanor, the most dangerous member of the Monster Court. As the stakes rise--and Nick gets perilously closer to discovering the truth of what Joan did to him--Joan advances deeper into the monster world. When she's captured by the Monster Court itself, she uncovers a secret of her own. She and Eleanor are the last members of a thirteenth monster family--a family erased from the timeline by the King. Eleanor has been fighting to restore them. But when Joan glimpses the dark timeline their family once ruled over--and Nick's role in it --she finds herself once again torn between love and family and monstrous choices as she battles to prevent Eleanor from bringing back their family and ushering in a terrible future. Never a Hero is a stunning sequel that brings even more magic, monsters, and secrets to this incredible series. As New York Times bestselling author CS Pacat says, "Put down everything you're doing, and read it!"
