About the product
Featured book: Son of the Morning by Akwaeke Emezi
If you like enemies to lovers and polyamorous relationships, we think you’ll enjoy this one!
Our Afterlight 2025 October book is a standalone paranormal adult romance! Despite being raised within a formidable clan, a young woman has always felt alone. When she meets the handsome head of security protecting a mysterious artefact, she feels a connection--and the knowledge that he's not human. And he knows she isn't mortal either, even if she isn't aware of it. Drawn into an unseen battle between realms and caught between the princes of Hell, their attraction threatens to devastate their existence--unless she embraces the consequences of her power.

What is Illumicrate?
Illumicrate started life as a quarterly subscription box, and we're proud that we were the first UK book subscription box! We launched in the summer of 2015, and our very first box was November 2015. We now offer two options for the Illumicrate monthly subscriptions: a full box subscription and a book only subscription, which features the books included in our monthly boxes.
In 2021 we launched Afterlight, a quarterly romance subscription box that is now monthly. Evernight, a quarterly horror subscription box, was launched in July 2023. Our new science fiction book only subscription Starbright will launch in February 2025.
We also offer special editions of books and book sets, with a range of customisations exclusive to Illumicrate. We have also held virtual signings and in 2019 we launched our Debut Boxes, showcasing new debut authors. Our Collections, Archives and Mini-boxes focus on a particular author or fandom.
