AN INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER
From the author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy comes a new heartwarming fantasy rom-com with an opposites-attract twist set in the delightful world of Tanria. Immortal demigod Rosie Fox has been patrolling Tanria for decades, but lately, the job has been losing its luster. After one hundred and fifty-seven years of being alive, everything is beginning to lose its luster. When Rosie dies (again) by electrocution (again) after poking around inside a portal choked with shadowy thorns only she can see, she feels stuck in the rut that is her unending life. Thanks to Rosie’s meddling, the portal’s inventor, Dr. Adam Lee, must come in person to repair the damage. When all the portals begin to break down, he declares an emergency evacuation of Tanria. In the mad rush to get out, Rosie and Adam end up trapped inside the Mist. Together. And uptight Adam Lee in his bespoke menswear seems to know a lot more about what’s happening than he lets on…. Rosie is determined to crack the shell of his cool exterior. But the more she learns about Adam, the more she realizes that they both have personal histories as tangled and thorny as the plant that has them trapped inside the Mist. Maybe two people who have found themselves stuck in this life can find a way to unstick each other… just when their time on this earth seems to be running out. |

Praise for The Undercutting of Rosie and Adam
"Bannen works her magic and develops her main characters as seamlessly as she has in her previous Hart and Mercy novels. The third and possibly best visit to Tanria is enchanting, heartwarming, full of adventure, and includes Bannen’s signature charm." Booklist
"The third heartfelt entry of the delightful 'Hart and Mercy' series. Hand this romance/fantasy to readers who enjoy unconventional main characters, opposites-attract romances, and novels that explore complicated family relationships." Library Journal
"Megan Bannen's fantasy romance trilogy rides off into the sunset with its funny, sexy, and bittersweet final installment. Rosie is a bighearted, big-framed, big-mouthed heroine to love and cheer for, and her interplay with repressed, proper Adam is hot and hilarious. Series fans and newcomers alike will enjoy this adventurous, creative romance." Shelf Awareness
"Reader, I devoured this in two days. My weekend: GONE. A huge recommend if you’d like a clever and endlessly endearing magical tale of finding yourself and the one you love." The Fantasy Hive
"Vibes like Dungeons and Dragons meets Sweet Home Alabama. Bannen is great at balancing substance and world-building with fun, steamy romance." The Pitch
