It's time for the Friday Book Club! What reads are you loving this week?
Join Nalini at Chapter Book & Tea Shop on Tuesday 13th May at 7pm for the launch of Archangel's Ascension! Click here for full details.
The international edition of Archangel's Ascension will be available for sale on the night. If you’re based in New Zealand, you can also pre-order signed copies from Chapter.
If you’re outside of New Zealand, you can still pre-order a signed copy of either edition from Chapter by dropping the owner Frances a note at info@chapter.co.nz. She ships internationally and can tell you what shipping costs may apply.
You can also place orders for other signed books by Nalini via Chapter—just contact Frances with details of which titles you’re after.

What a lovely weekend! Thank you to everyone who attended the ARRA events in Brisbane and Sydney this weekend! It was such a delight to meet you!
Can’t wait for the Melbourne and Perth events next week! If you missed out on full day tickets, you can still get tickets at the door for the afternoon signing sessions.
I love how intimate these ARRA events are - definitely put them on your list if you want to chat to authors and fellow readers in a relaxed environment.
Also, I signed extra stock for Romancing the Novel (Sydney), and did bookplates for Rosemary’s Romance Books (Brisbane), so if you’d like a signed copy, hit them up!

Alt text: Cover of Atonement Sky by Nalini Singh. Background of cover is ombré hues of sunset - reds, deep pinks, oranges, glowing yellow. Background image is of sunset red cliffs and desert. In the foreground is a silhouette of a couple, a man and a woman, looking at each other. A softer image overlying it all is that of a peregrine falcon in flight.
Surprise cover reveal!! LOOK at the stunning North American cover of Atonement Sky (out July 2025)!
I LOVE everything about it - the romance, the colors, the way it ties so beautifully into the story. Created by the amazing team of Rita Frangie (design) and Tony Mauro (art).
Alt Text: Quote from Ali Hazelwood - "My favorite series of all time! Nalini Singh is a master of world building and the undisputed queen of steamy paranormal romance and urban fantasy...Slave to Sensation is where the magic started, and I will never shut up about it."
The brand new trade paperback edition of Slave to Sensation, coming June 2025!
