Jessica Smith at Simon Pulse has acquired A Most Perilous Proposal by Isabel Sterling, a sapphic YA cozy fantasy about a marriage competition for the prince's hand in which two girls—a polished debutante trying to secure a place in court for her family and a charming rogue trying to rob the royal coffers while hiding her illegal magic—find their efforts challenged by an unexpected attraction to each other, despite clashing at every turn. Publication is set for spring 2028; Danielle Burby at Mad Woman Literary Agency negotiated the deal for North American rights.

The Fate of Winged Creatures by Andrea Hannah (Wednesday Books) - moved from December 2026, May 2027 and September 2027.
The myth of Eros and Psyche meets The Tortured Poets Department in this YA romantic fantasy spanning multiple time loops and one star-crossed relationship.
Beck Penrose is living on borrowed time. With her eighteenth birthday looming, it’s her final chance to be claimed by one of the Greater Angels. If Beck fails, she’ll be sent to the Ravine, where the worst criminals are sentenced to a life of labor and exile.
When Beck’s last-ditch plea for patronage goes horribly wrong, she’s met with a shocking discovery—one that calls into question not only the Angels, but the very fabric of her existence. Leaning on an enigmatic boy who stirs up more questions than answers, she is forced to navigate a series of dangerous, god-forged time loops to uncover the truth.
And as the fate of winged creatures hangs in the balance, Beck must make the impossible decision between an inevitable end and her fatalistic heart.
