Seven Days in Tokyo
''Tantalising'' Leo Vardiashvili, author of Hard by a Great Forest
''Profound'' Iqbal Hussain, author of Northern Boy
Two strangers meet in Manhattan and spend a perfect night together. In Tokyo, they have seven days to see if that one night might mean something more.
Landon’s living alone in Tokyo as a British ‘expat’, Louie’s visiting while he anxiously waits for approval on his US visa. Against the backdrop of a misty Tokyo Spring, their precious time together is spent wandering into side streets and coffee shops, sharing unmade beds and plates of food. But as the days tick by, Louie’s expectations start to overtake reality and he falls too deeply for a life that’s not yet his.
Breathtakingly tender, Seven Days in Tokyo is an astonishing debut about the intricacies of desire and a search for belonging. It is a lyrical, immersive portrait of how some things, however beautiful and profound, are destined to be as short-lived as the cherry blossoms.
‘A study of misplaced desire and a poetic love letter to the city itself’ Jemma Kennedy, playwright
''Alvior''s protagonist and love interest are as complexly built as a Sally Rooney couple'' Zahra Barri, author of Daughters of the Nile
Tüskemajor 2: Váratlan vendégek
"Ha szivárványt akarsz látni, el kell viselned az esőt. Én valóságos viharon verekedtem át magam, mielőtt megpillantottam a sajátomat."
Hét ágra süt a nap, nyílnak a virágok, és Tüskésmajor végre készen áll a sünök fogadására! Egyre-másra érkeznek a kis jövevények, ám az új vendégek felelősséggel is járnak. Samanthának fel kell tennie a kérdést, vajon nem vágta-e túl nagy fába a fejszéjét, és hogy a teljes munkaidős állása mellett képes lesz-e ezt az intézményt is működtetni.
Szerelme, Josh mellette áll, és mindenben támogatja, ám az ő feje fölött a saját családi problémái kezdenek tornyosulni. Túl tud lépni vajon a múlt sérelmein, és képes megbocsátani valaha is az apjának, aki Josh egykori barátnőjével kezdett új életet? Samanthának pedig rendeződhet-e a kapcsolata rideg és elutasító anyjával, vagy továbbra is idegenek maradnak egymás számára?
Jessica Redland nagy sikerű Tüskésmajor-sorozatának második kötete a megértés és a megbocsátás nehéz útjáról mesél, miközben beljebb kalauzolja az olvasót a sünök világába.

Seeing Red
She lives by the rules. He lives to break them.
Cassidy Bowman has strict rules to uphold her good-girl reputation: she doesn't date the Wells Ranch locals, and she definitely doesn't sleep with men she isn't dating. But after a run-in with her ex-boyfriend-and a few too many drinks-she's ready to buck those rules and allow herself one night of recklessness.
On the other hand, local cowboy Chase "Red" Thompson has never met a rule he didn't love breaking. With a long-time crush on Cassidy, he's more than willing to accept her offer of a one-night stand and her one condition: he must agree to never speak of it again.
That is until two pink lines render Cassidy's entire rule book null and void. Cassidy isn't looking for a relationship with the rough-and-tumble cowboy, and Red doesn't need anyone to tell him he's not good enough for the sweetheart of Wells Canyon.
So the two make another agreement-they'll be friends and co-parents, nothing more. But as their carefully designed boundaries begin to blur, Cassidy might just realise that perhaps some rules are worth breaking . . .
Tropes:
- Accidental Pregnancy
- Friends with Benefits
- He cooks for her

Story of My Life (Deluxe Edition) - Story Lake 1
**Don't miss out on the stunning, limited DELUXE EDITION, while supplies last, featuring gorgeous designed edges, spot gloss on the cover, a map and chapter POV art.
Brand new small town romance from #1 New York Times bestseller Lucy Score.
A Gilmore Girls meets Schitt's Creek redemption romcom.
Hazel Hart was a successful romance novelist until a breakup drives her straight into writer's block. Having failed (and failed some more) to deliver her new manuscript, she's hiding from the world behind a wall of old takeout containers until her publisher lays down the law. If she misses her next deadline it's The End.
Desperate for inspiration, Hazel impulse-buys a historic home online and flees Manhattan to tiny Story Lake, PA. Upon her dramatic arrival-involving an incident with a bald eagle-she discovers the charm of her new home may have been slightly exaggerated.
The house is a wreck and the town is struggling after their biggest employer shut down. Also, since her raccoon-infested home came with a seat on the town council our introverted heroine is stuck with a front row seat to all the small-town shenanigans.
But Hazel isn't worried. Not since all six-feet-three inches of grouchy contractor Campbell Bishop slapped a bandage on her forehead and unintentionally inspired the heck out of her. There's only one thing to do: Hire Cam and his equally gorgeous brothers to renovate her new spider museum…er…house.
Okay two things. A fake date for "research purposes" will really put her work-in-progress on track. Before Hazel knows it, she's writing a romance novel and living one. At least until the drywall dust settles, the town she's falling in love with faces bankruptcy, and growly Cam remembers why he can't live happily ever after.
Author's Note: "This series is my love letter to every reader who said they wanted to move to a fictional town."

Everyone may know your name, but do they know the real you?
Andi Salazar's hard work at the local women's shelter makes a big difference in her small town, but at the end of a long day, Andi can't wait to blow off some steam as her sexy, voluptuous bombshell singer persona. Andi burns down the stage with her fiery spirit, catching the eyes of Galway High's popular new math teacher, Kevin Mahoney.
After his ex dubbed him as too "vanilla", Kevin's on a mission to find the real version of himself. One look at Andi and he nearly bursts into flame. After colliding in the hallway, their chemistry leads to a hot, sweet hookup that leaves him wanting more. But when their work brings them together again, Andi and Kevin can't stay apart for long. Kevin is the first man Andi feels like she can trust, and conversation with Andi makes Kevin truly enjoy opening up to her.
Although friendship may be safer, romance could be everything and more, especially when an unexpected variable changes their lives in the best way possible.
Wilder - A Renegátok 1.
Wilder közelében lenni legalább olyan veszélyes, mint amennyire addiktív… Miután elvesztegettem két évet az életemből, úgy döntök, részt veszek egy kilenc hónapos hajóúton, ahol nemcsak dolgozni, hanem tanulni is fogok. A célom, hogy világot lássak, mindent a lehető legintenzívebben megtapasztaljak, és (ha szerencsém van) megtaláljam önmagam. De bárcsak tudtam volna, mire vállalkozom!

Bárhová megy, kamerák, rajongók és nagyszabású mutatványok kísérik. Utálni akarom őt. Le akarom hajítani azt az arrogáns egóját erről a hajóról. De attól a másodperctől kezdve, hogy egymáshoz érünk, a gyomrom egy dupla szaltót ugrik, és ráébredek, Wilder közelében lenni legalább olyan veszélyes, mint amennyire addiktív. Mert tudom, mi a helyzet azokkal a pasikkal, akik mindig a következő vad kaland után rohannak. És tudom, mi történik azokkal a lányokkal, akik beléjük szeretnek. De most a sorsunk összefonódott… és ha ő elbukik, nekem sincs semmi esélyem. Ismerd meg a Fourth Wing – Negyedik szárny írójának legújabb romantikus regényét! „A Wilder kötelező olvasmány azoknak, akik egy romantikával fűtött, izgalmas utazásra vágynak!” – K.
