For those of you who do not read the online installments, we are delighted to present…
Sweep of the Heart
AVAILABLE ON DECEMBER 13, 2022

From the New York Times #1 bestselling author, Ilona Andrews, comes a fun and action-packed new adventure in the Innkeeper Chronicles! We invite you to relax, enjoy yourself, and above all, remember the one rule all visitors must obey: the humans must never know.
Life is busier than ever for Innkeeper, Dina DeMille and Sean Evans. But it’s about to get even more chaotic when Sean’s werewolf mentor is kidnapped. To find him, they must host an intergalactic spouse-search for one of the most powerful rulers in the Galaxy. Dina is never one to back down from a challenge. That is, if she can manage her temperamental Red Cleaver chef; the consequences of her favorite Galactic ex-tyrant’s dark history; the tangled politics of an interstellar nation, and oh, yes, keep the wedding candidates from a dozen alien species from killing each other. Not to mention the Costco lady.
They say love is a battlefield; but Dina and Sean are determined to limit the casualties!

Hope everyone manages to stay safe!
Please be safe!
I’ll take one 😀
Thrilled to see House Andrews interview in New York Times book section yesterday!!
WHAT!! Now I have to go find this!
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/15/books/review/ilona-andrews-ruby-fever.html
Thank you for posting itm Unfortunately it seems that the NYT doesn’t allow you to read their articles unless you’re a subscribers… says something about reaching a limit of free reads, when I’ve never read one of their articles before ????????♀️. So not able to read this one I’m afraid
Whee, pre-ordered! Thank you!
ORDERED!! I can’t wait!!
So exciting! I pre-ordered last night 🙂 Can’t wait for the next installment. Am loving this Innkeeper!
thank you
Thanks. Ordered.
Woot! I love both versions.
I have a question! Since Innkeeper is self-published by House Andrews, do they write their own blurbs? I wondered because I LOVE this one, throwing in the Costco lady was brilliant! =)
Yes, the blurb is all House Andrews ????
Brilliant!! Simply brilliant!!! =) And thank you for your response!
Pre-ordered! Love following along on the blog as much as I love being able to read it all together in one final-edited version a few months later!
Will this book be edited?
Ilona has answered the editing questions for the serial here ???? https://ilona-andrews.com/2022/editing-of-online-serials-sweep-of-the-heart/
Ordered immediately! I’ll be getting the audio as soon as it’s available too. I always get your books in both formats because they are that awesome ❤️
Had to come out to get my phone to pre-order. I’m rather surprised you can’t do pre-orders for print edition; seems like would help determine how many to order for printing. Is that an Amazon restriction or a printer restriction? Apologies if that’s been answered already.
I’ve got the same question. Ebook is the one edition I don’t buy. Paper and audio for me!
Audio I understand not being available for preorder at this time. But paper? Oh well. NBD. I can wait.
Ordered and thank you!
I have enjoyed all of the books artistic covers but I think this one is my favorite.
We of the Book Devouring Horde are so easy — the current one is our absolute favourite… until the next one comes along. 😉
Ordered. (Yay!!) Which means that each time it is mentioned between now and Release Day I’ll be disappointed to discover that I pre-empted my desire by already preordering it. Such are the joyous travails of the BDH.
I have three ebook apps. I try to restrict my preordering when I found I had preordered the same book on all of them lol
+1
No really, this one is my favorite by far.
Yay and ordered. When the print version is available, I’ll order that too. Thank you.
Pre-ordered, and thanks for the heads-up!
Yes. Yes. Yes.
And nice cover.
its not available on the uk amazon for pre order. just the ebook, and i dont do those. and im still waiting on the cop of ruby fever i pre ordered. amazon had a delivery date of 13th sep, already weeks past when you actually said it would be available, no there’s no delivery date at all.
Hi Joanna,
As the post explains, there is only a preorder for the ebook at the moment, as the print copies are POD (print on demand) and preorder on that format is not available ????.
Ilona Andrews also do not control Amazon distribution of their goods (or any seller for that matter) – you can contact Amazon support directly for complaints https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/cs
“Not to mention the Costco lady.”
YESSSSS!!! Best sentence in the book description!
I mean I read the blog so I already know this particular story arc is finally making a comeback but I know for those who don’t read the blog… this is the best news ever. IDK why we focus so strongly on the smaller conflicts ::shrug:::
Ordered this morning
Ordered!
Gorgeous cover!
I agree, beautiful cover. I would buy this even if I didn’t already know the author.
Yay!!!!! E-book officially pre-ordered and I cannot wait to buy the print edition for my collection as well.
wonderful news!
I would greatly appreciate it to get the audio book as a full cast version. It was a great fun to listen to the stories during summer holiday.
THE COSTCO LADY HAHAHAHAHAHA
im excited xD
ooo nice! Love the cover!!
Ordered! Now waiting for print preorder whenever it happens.
A Publishing date! Hooray! Will you be offering signed book plates with orders from Blue Willow?
Not sure yet, please watch this space 🙂
Ordered. Will order paper when available. Thank you ????
wow bloody wow
so bloody excited!!!! thank you
BDH for life
There is a change in narrator (again)? Any particular reason? Did not Natalie do a good job? I am curious about that Nora Achrati.
Natalie Naudus did an absolutely fabulous job, unfortunately she was not available for the window of time when the audio has to be recorded.
Nora Achrati voices Dina and directs the Innkeeper books for Graphic Audio, so she is close to the material and most of the fans have a familiarity with her voice.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for the info. It does.
What do you mean “for those who do not read the online installments….” ?!?
Does this mean I shouldn’t pre-order?
Not allowed to pre-order?!?
*hyperventilating*…
I need mango ice cream.
I pre-ordered anyway…..should I be waiting for a dahaka to show up at my door?
It simply means that the preorder links were posted with the finale chapter of SotH but the people who don’t read along needed them separately ???? as they wouldn’t have seen them there.
Ofc you can and should preorder ????
I wouldn’t mind a dahaka at my door if it was quickly followed by a warrior of House Krahr come to rescue me????
‘Not to mention the Costco lady.’
You truly made my day. I’d been stalking the blog today (favourite BDH pastime I guess?) and then all of a sudden there was the amazing chapter, a preorder link for the book – and the coolest blurb ever. Happy MInnday it is
I’m one of those who can’t tolerate the weekly cadence, so this makes me go squee!
Ordered! Now to wish my life away waiting for December…..
As an aside, the amazon link is for USA, is there an option to add the UK amazon?
Here is the link for Amazon U.K. ???? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sweep-Heart-Ilona-Andrews-ebook/dp/B0BG92Z2G2/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=APGLSHC2110C&keywords=sweep+of+the+heart+ilona+andrews&qid=1664228292&sprefix=%2Caps%2C40&sr=8-1
Thank you for that link, it worked! I came on to check if anyone else was having problems with Amazon.uk. The book kept coming up without a buy link even though I went to the site direct rather than through my kindle app.
W**t is still a four-letter word but I’m very happy with the online ending and shall abide in p****nce for the final book. It’ll be some nice December reading. 🙂
Pre-ordered!
Love the cover. Ready Set Order!!
Yay! Thanks!
Ebook ordered, will order the hardcopy when available.
Hard to wait, but I will…
I also need to let my daughter, who does not do serial posts (quite different from Post cereals, of course) but loves Inn Keeper, that the preorder is up.
Yay! As soon as I get on the laptop sucker is mine (can other countries still buy ebooks on their Amazon apps or is only UK that annoying?)
I can confirm we can’t buy in the app anymore in New Zealand as well. so frustrating. but yay for pre order being done. so excited
can’t in US either…boo hiss….
Google and Amazon are pissing in each other’s faces over online payments and who gets what percentage and how the money is collected. Right now Amazon thinks that enough people will go to the extra effort to buy from their website now that Google won’t let people use AmazonPay in the Kindle app.
Is there going to be a graphic audio recording for this book too? I absolutely love what Graphic Audio has done with the series.
It will be announced as soon as it’s known ????
Thanks. The Graphic Audio versions are great!
Ordered 🙂
Pre-ordered!!! Thank you
Great cover! Just pre-ordered the Kindle version!
Congratulations on this mile post for this baby book.
preordered! can’t wait for the GA!
Thank you! Pre-ordered. 🙂
Did the pre-order before I went for the final chapter. I’m looking forward to December 13th!
Doris’s cover is beautiful! I loved the ending (for now). Congratulations!
As of this moment on Amazon US:
Best Sellers Rank: #63 in Kindle Store (See Top 100 in Kindle Store)

Thanks House Andrews ????
Preordered! ????
Mod R, how long do we have to re-read the posted chapters before they are taken down?
::waves hand:: Mod R?????
Just pre-ordered on Kobo. Can’t wait! 😀
Yay! I like to get it in print like the other editions I have so unfortunately I’ll have to wait a bit.
But I def know what’s going on my Christmas wish list!
YES! i have been waiting for this. I like to read it all in one go – so i have been waiting oooooh so patiently.
Off to pre-order i go! House Andrews yoy are THE BEST!

Yay! What a great early Christmas present! ????
Very Nice cover.

Woo Hoo!!!
“Not to mention the Costco lady.” made me cackle.
Pre-ordered!
Ordered! Yay!
Okay, my brain is weird. My first thought on seeing the cover was “when did Dina’s hair get so long?” Seriously, my brain is weird. It has been making up conspiracy theories to account for the length.
My favorite is that Sean likes brushing her hair so the Inn gave him more hair to brush.
I had that same exact thought!
That cover art is beautiful. Just preordered the ebook. Wow! Y’all are killing it. Right now #19 on all of Amazon. The BDH preorder game is strong.
Prayers for all affected.
The ranking lists it’s been sorted into are a bit squiffy on UK amazon..
Best Sellers Rank: 210 in Kindle Store (See Top 100 in Kindle Store)
1 in Paranormal Vampire Romance (Books)
1 in Paranormal Werewolves & Shifters Romance (Kindle Store)
1 in Paranormal Vampire Romance (Kindle Store)
Yay
Thank you so much HA. I enjoyed all the installments and cannot wait for the books.
I also hope it will be recorded in Graphic Audio. This has become my favorite series ever ????
What! Only ONE (1) more chapter to finish up, tie up loose ends, and finalize hints for the next “Sweeping” Adventure!
Surely not! Two at the very least, maybe three.
Squeeeeaaaa! Preordered. So great!
This is great news! I’m one of those who skips the weekly installments, preferring to read all at once. I’ll be preordering the ebook and audio when available! Thanks!
Very Excited! Have been waiting patiently to read it all in one go, but love that you serialize this series still.
Thank you!
Squee! I just pre-ordered the book. Let’s hear it for Ilona, Gordon, and Mod R! Yay! ????????????????????????????????????
Hey! Way to go you! I see on Amazon you are #1 Best Sellers in multiple categories!! You guys are awesome!!
Thank you for letting us know. I hope preorders blow up the various ordering sites
Ordered! Can’t wait!!!
will there be a graphic audio edition?
It will be announced as soon as it’s known ????
Yes! Brilliant – I so wanted Lady Wexyn to win after her date with him where she was undemanding.
GO TEAM FISH!!!!
Oh, hooray! I do not read the installments because I can’t stand waiting, so I am very happy! I have been waiting for this moment! Thanks, Gordon and Ilona!!!
Screaming in excitement! I loved it. I am so happy he chose Lady W. Great ending. I can’t wait for the book to come out so I can read the last chapter. Please let Lady W ask be your realtor Cal to her throne. It would restore harmony after all ????
OMG I’m so excited!! Your work is amazing.
allready preordered
love you dearly
and thanks so much!!!
Squeeeee!!!! Joy!
How long will the installments stay on the website? I love re-reading but know it gets taken down closer to the publication date.
<3 the Costco lady.
Thank you! I hadn’t seen the pre-order link as I don’t read the weekly installments (I prefer to digest my books as large lumps – I’m greedy like that!). Love the release date, it’s like an early Christmas present 🙂
Already pre-ordered. And I loved this chapter. 🙂 I’m really dying to know when and how they rescue Wilmos. 🙂
I hope this one makes it to Graphic Audio too. 🙂
The cover is sooo beautiful! ????????
Love it !
I have pre-ordered it! ????
I just realized, Lady Wexyn looks like Cleopatra in the paintings. Was she the inspiration for this character?
Preordered and happy to do so!
Just pre-ordered mine! It is:
Best Sellers Rank: #15 in Kindle Store (See Top 100 in Kindle Store)
#1 in Werewolf & Shifter Romance
#1 in Paranormal Werewolves & Shifters Romance
#1 in Romantic Fantasy (Books)
Thank you again, HA!!
In your release schedule it is called Innkeeper Chronicles No 5 – it should be No 6, shouldn’t it?
Have just finished reading the whole wonderful story from the apple cake and up to the Grand Finale. So wonderful!
No, because Sweep with Me was a novella, so it’s 3.5 ????.
You can check out the full series here, Sweep of the Heart is indeed number 5 https://ilona-andrews.com/innkeeper-chronicles-books/#clean
Ah! Thank you!
Will be definitely buying the print version. Wish I could preorder so you know you are selling those too. So excited. This may be my favorite Innkeeper.
Pre-ordered. Is it December yet.
I loved the selection. I am so happy that he chose her. She’s perfect for the role. She’ll be a fierce political wife and a terrifying mother.
Resven is eating crow right now.
Thank you guys so much. There is so much in this book. I will be immediately rereading it.
I have what I am sure is a dumb question. Whatever happened to the cover that was revealed on Jan 10th? Instead of the mysterious cover, now the cover that is being shown has Sean and Dina on it. I’m really confused.
Things change in 10 months ????
Welp, that explains it! Thank you for the response. You are always on it and we appreciate it.
Hello
IAM still wondering about the parents story line…
I am wondering about the with Klaus meeting Maud?
Dina cat S. N. ?
I have been reading your books for a long time a I just love them.
I’ve been purchasing this series on the Nook, but have decided to buy the books as well. This is a series I need to be able to hold in my hands.
I hope House Andrews continues writing for a long time.
I have pre-ordered Sweep of the Heart! I can’t wait, this is my treating to myself. Something I am told I don’t do nearly enough. I love your books and look forward to seeing come next after this adventure.
Will Renée Raudman no longer be narrating? That’s so sad, I love her narration on your books…
Renee Raudman will not be voicing further books, but I hope you give all the other wonderful narrators a chance ????
Oh, that’s sooner than I expected! I avoided the blog installments like the plague b/c I can’t live like that, but I (glumly) figured it would take forever to get through the editing process.
Happy news!
Caldenia knew all along what Wexyn was. Wexyn would never tell Caldenia what Kosandion asked, but no doubt Caldenia figured it out. So when do you think she realized Wexyn’s feelings were real? My guess is during the private conversation.
