A novel's fantastical elements shine bright against the backdrop of the familiar. Roshani Chokshi's latest novel, "The Last Tale of the Flower Bride," is about a bridegroom who promises not to pry into his wife's past. Lauren Blackwood's novel "The Dangerous Ones" is set in 1863, on two battlefronts: North vs. South, and demigods vs. vampires. These dark stories of romance and dubious pasts make us wonder about the tales we tell ourselves. The two authors discussed their work with Ashley Dickerson.
