About the author

New Yorker, globetrotter, author, designer — and unapologetic storyteller of steamy emotional journeys.


Marian Andrew was raised in the city that never sleeps, polished by a British education, and now lives her European dream in Germany alongside her incredibly supportive husband, amazing son, and two mischievous feline sidekicks.

After two decades in the fashion world — jet-setting between New York, London, and the Far East, chasing inspiration across the globe — Marian traded couture for characters. Today, she channels her creative fire into writing stories that swerve between dirty and devastating, filthy and heartfelt. She also designs all her own book covers, because frankly, no one else can get the vibe just right.

A specialist in digital design and fluent in three languages, Marian grew up with a multicultural heartbeat that fuels her obsession with messy, beautiful human emotions, sharp banter, dangerous chemistry, and the kind of happily-ever-afters you have to fight for.

When she’s not setting her keyboard on fire, she’s ballroom dancing, binge-reading romance novels, or testing celebrity chef recipes (and occasionally setting off the smoke alarm).

What an amazing surprise!! I absolutely loved The Brotherhood of Saints Series and had wished there was more of Revna and Dylan, but I never thought that wish would come true. This prequel novella to the series gives some more to the back story between Rev and Dylan and I devoured it. Don't get me wrong, I love a good why choose, but Dylan always held a special spot. I enjoyed this read so much because I had already read the series, but you don't have to read the series to enjoy this one. However, I can guarantee by reading this one you will want to jump right into book one of the series, Invictus!!

Inceptum is the prequel to Brotherhood of Saints series. This takes place when it’s only Dylan and Revna, about their history. I learned so much more about Dylan, made ma appreciate him even more. And it’s a good start for the rest of the series.
This is a quick read, but you can fall right into the story and you will devour the entire series.

This book is a prequel to the Brotherhood of saints series with the back story of Reva and Dylan. It was a pallet cleanser so to speak that gave me exactly what I needed! A quick and easy read to start the series!

Dylan is one of my favorite characters in the Brotherhood of Saints world. I have always wanted a deeper look into his and Revna's backstory
