Cycle of the Werewolf
Something inhuman has come to Tarker's Mills, as unseen as the full moon riding the night sky high above.
The first scream came from the snowbound railwayman who felt the werewolf's fangs ripping at his throat. The next month there was a scream of ecstatic agony from the woman attacked in her cosy bedroom. Now scenes of unbelievable horror unfold each time the full moon shines on the isolated Maine town of Tarker's Mills.
No one knows who will be attacked next. But one thing is sure. When the full moon rises, a paralysing fear sweeps through Tarker's Mills. For snarls that sound like human words can be heard whining through the wind. And all around are the footprints of a monster whose hunger cannot be sated...
Violet Made of Thorns
There's always a price for defying destiny.
Violet is a prophet and a liar, influencing the court as Seer with her cleverly phrased - and not always true - divinations. Honesty is for suckers, like the oh-so-not-charming Prince Cyrus, who plans to strip her of her title once he's crowned.
After the king asks her to falsely prophesy Cyrus's love story for an upcoming ball, Violet awakens a dreaded curse about the prince's future bride. Her wits may protect her in the cutthroat court, but they can't protect her against fate - nor the doomed attraction growing between her and the prince . . .
Thousand Autumns: Qian Qiu (Novel) Vol. 3
“HE DOESN’T DESERVE TO DIE HERE, NOT LIKE THIS.”
Despite the sting of Yan Wushi’s betrayal fresh on his heart, Shen Qiao rushes to save him from certain death only to arrive a moment too late—or so it seems. As rumor of Yan Wushi’s demise spreads far and wide, the winds of change stir across the land. Meanwhile, Shen Qiao seeks to heal Yan Wushi’s grave injuries, and realizes that his understanding of the Demon Lord runs only skin-deep. Yet fate does not allow the pair to remain idle for long.
When an old friend reveals his true nature, Shen Qiao and Yan Wushi have no choice but to aid him on a perilous mission. Only this time, humans aren’t the only monsters to fear.
Szöktetés
Karnevál van, a velencei swinger klubban senki sem figyel föl a tollas álarcot viselő, vékony lányalakra, amint zsákot húznak a fejére. Senki sem látja a sötétre színezett ablakú furgont, amely elrobog vele a hegyekbe. Mia Elston a Velence közelében állomásozó amerikai haderő egyik főtisztjének a lánya. De ki akarná elrabolni, és miért? A Carnivia.com netes portáljára valakik egy videót töltenek föl: rémült kamaszlány lóg összebilincselt csuklójánál fogva a mennyezetről. Amerika szerint ez nem kínzás, fut végig a kép alján az üzenet, tehát este hétkor nem kínozzuk meg…Az ügyben ezúttal is Piola ezredes és kolléganője, Kat Tapo nyomoz, évtizedes bűnökre is fényt derítve.

Mortdecai
Charlie Mortdecai, a szélhámos műkincskereskedő szereti a pénzt, az italt, a művészetet és a nőket, és időnként zűrös helyzetekbe keveredik. Amikor például eltűnik egy Goya-festmény, a rendőrség nála kopogtat, nem véletlenül, majd a birtokába jut egy kompromittáló fénykép is két diplomatáról. Mortdecai rövidesen arra eszmél, hogy különböző kormányok és titkosszolgálatok emberei is holtan akarják látni, úgyhogy minden ravaszságára, valamint verőlegénye, Jock erejére is szüksége lesz ahhoz, hogy kikerüljön a csávából. Kyril Bonfiglioli regényei Angliában régóta klasszikusnak számítanak, a rendkívül humoros és csavaros Mortdecai-trilógia most egy kötetben lát napvilágot. A könyvből 2015-ben mozifilm készül, Johnny Depp főszereplésével.

Mistletoe and Kisses
When love is staring you straight in the face…
Lord Hugh Radley is handsome, clever, and not short of a penny. He is also at times more than a little vague, often lost in his own world.
For the past two years professor’s daughter Mary Gray has worked alongside him while he completed his studies at Cambridge University. She has brought him coffee and toast for supper most nights.
Somewhere along the way, she also secretly gave him her heart.
Christmas 1790 looms large with life changes for both of them. Hugh has completed his degree and has a bright future ahead of him.
For Mary, she faces a bleaker Christmas. It will be her first without her beloved father, and she will be alone.
A mislaid book sees Hugh returning to the university in time to discover the secret that Mary has been keeping from him. She has been evicted from her long-time home.
Hugh is outraged at the treatment Mary has received, but while he is busy being angry, his sister Adelaide steps in and invites Mary to spend Christmas with the Radley family at Strathmore Castle in Scotland.
In the wilds of chilly Scotland, Hugh finally faces up to the truth that he has long given over his heart to Mary. He makes the fateful decision to ask Mary for her hand in marriage.
Being Hugh however he is clueless about the minds of women and he makes a mess of things. With the clock ticking down to New Year’s Eve, he knows that if he doesn’t secure Mary’s love by then, he will lose her forever.
Cupid’s little helpers are meanwhile busy at work.
With the aid of the time-old tradition of kissing under the mistletoe, Hugh and Mary make tentative steps toward finding their happily ever after.
One kiss at a time.
Mistletoe and Kisses was previously published as part of the Winter Wishes Anthology.

Helena Součková, an eight-year-old schoolgirl in a small provincial town, deals not only with the uniquely dismal side of life in communist Czechoslovakia, but also with more than a few universal issues, like death, school dinners, guilt, obtuse teachers, betrayal, love, Jewishness, annoying little brothers, almost absent fathers, cruel classmates, bogus adults, eerie daydreams and nightmares that reflect the society around her. A child of her time, Helena nevertheless rises above it all with her special blend of grit, common sense and dark imaginings, which speak to us today with clarity and power. Helena has come to be a well-known archetype that many can identify with. Hrdý Budžes is now a firm family favourite in the Czech Republic and elsewhere in Central Europe.
Mimořádně úspěšný, mnohokrát dotiskovaný český bestseller. S přispěním divadelní dramatizace, opakovaně uváděné Českou televizí, se stal Hrdý Budžes jednou z nejznámějších českých próz vydaných po sametové revoluci v roce 1989. Jen v České republice se prodalo více než 60. 000 výtisků. Kniha vyšla v překladech již v osmi zemích - v Německu, Bulharsku, Maďarsku, Polsku, Slovinsku, Bělorusku, Bosně a Hercegovině a na Ukrajině, nyní vychází v překladu do angličtiny.
1999: Manchester United, the Treble and All That
In 1999, Manchester United completed a unique Treble, winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League - but more remarkable than that was how they did it, and the stories behind the historic achievement. Matt Dickinson covered the whole story at the time, and now in 99 compelling chapters brings it all vividly to life. When the season began, Manchester United were up for sale, the club's iconic talisman Eric Cantona had gone, rivals Arsenal were the reigning Double winners, David Beckham was a national hate figure after being sent off during the World Cup, and even manager Alex Ferguson's position was being questioned.
Early signs weren't promising, despite record spending to bring in new stars, among them Jaap Stam and Dwight Yorke, but soon things began to change. Driven by the indomitable will of skipper Roy Keane, supported by a nucleus from the Class of 92 - Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, the Nevilles and Paul Scholes - who had grown up at the club, they went on a long unbeaten and unbeatable run, featuring some of the most dramatic games in fans' memories. Matt Dickinson highlights the key moments, speaking to those at the centre of the story and to those whose moment went unnoticed.
1999: Manchester United, the Treble and All That is so much more than a book for United fans; it is an insight into team building, the will to success and a tale of local pride. It reveals the real stories behind the legend that was sealed with a last-minute scrambled goal from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to win the Champions League.

Álmaim szállodája
Egy hotel mindig érdekes találkozóhely. És néha olyanokkal találkozol, akikről nem is hitted volna, hogy pont rájuk van szükséged.
Lucy egy jól menő New York-i szálloda igazgatója. A jövőjét pontosan megtervezte, ám amikor a szerelme (aki történetesen a szálló tulajdonosa) a cég több millió dollárjával a zsebében olajra lép, az élete gyökeresen megváltozik.
Két évvel később a negyvenkilenc éves, magába roskadt Lucy a franciaországi Rennes-ben vállal munkát a Hotel Paradis igazgatójaként. Extravagáns belső terekre, az irányítására váró seregnyi személyzetre és elegáns vendégekre számít, ám ehelyett valami egészen más vár rá: az a feladata, hogy a lepusztult, de bájos szállodát nyüzsgő turistalátványossággá alakítsa. Mégpedig a tulajdon két kezével.
Az épület felújítása, működésének megszervezése és Bing, a szinte már idegesítően vonzó művész megismerése közben Lucy váratlanul otthonra talál. De vajon sikerül visszaállítania az egykor előkelő hotel hajdani dicsőségét?
Az Álmaim szállodája szellemes és szívderítő regény arról, hogyan szerezheti vissza az ember az önbecsülését, lelhet rá a szerelemre, és teremthet otthont egy olyan helyen, amilyenről azelőtt még csak nem is álmodott.
