The Sacred Space Between
A devout iconographer must paint an exiled saint in this sumptuous gothic romantasy full of slow-burn tension and windswept moors, for fans of DIVINE RIVALS and A STUDY IN DROWNING
'Nothing less than blasphemy brought you to me,' Jude told her. Maeve trembled. He was an open flame. Any closer, and she'd burn.
Jude is a saint with dangerous magic - exiled by the Abbey to live out his days alone in a decaying estate on the moors - until gifted iconographer Maeve is sent to paint his icon. Suspecting she's a spy for her beloved Abbey, Jude makes it his mission to get rid of Maeve as soon as possible. That is, until he discovers that Maeve holds the same tainted magic as he does, and she may be the key to destroying the Abbey's power…
But this institution has eyes everywhere, and the only thing the Abbey loves more than a saint is a martyr.
Under the Oak Tree, Vol. 2 (novel)
Most fairytales end with a wedding and a happily-ever-after – but this is no fairytale. The updated and official translation of Under the Oak Tree, the #1 webnovel on MANTA, continues in this second volume.
As her first winter in Anatol turns to spring, Lady Maximilian finds herself confronting an unfamiliar feeling: hope. Her voice and her magic strengthen every day; the only parts of Calypse Castle left to refurbish are its gardens, which she plans to fill with blooming flowers; and the way her husband, the recalcitrant war hero Sir Riftan, looks at her from across their bedroom makes her feel, for the first time in her life, that she might be worthy of love and affection.
However, Maxi's life is never that easy. Just as she begins to feel at home with Riftan, Maxi receives a surprise visit from Princess Agnes, the renowned sorceress who might have become Riftan's wife if he'd decided to divorce Maxi after the Dragon Campaign. Not at all what Maxi expected, the princess stirs up complicated emotions and politics that could lead to monumental changes in Maxi and Riftan's relationship.
This volume collects chapters 77-133 of the original webnovel by Suji Kim.

Tender Cruelty - Dark Olympus 9
The highly anticipated ninth instalment in the Dark Olympus series is a scorching modern retelling of the romance of Zeus and Hera, from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Katee Robert.
***
I was his wife. His lover. His sworn enemy. The ice queen to Olympus’s most hated king.
The barrier that’s protected Olympus for generations has fallen. The enemy has breached the gates and the Thirteen are scrambling to protect themselves, their loved ones, and the city they’ve sworn to protect. At least they would be if they weren’t at each other’s throats instead.
Hera has no intention of letting her husband, Zeus, survive the oncoming storm. But despite the white-hot hatred burning between them, when Hera and Zeus are forced to work together, enmity crystallises into something brighter. Hotter. Too powerful to deny or destroy.
Hera never bartered on falling in love with the man she married – the man she once swore to kill. But now, standing back-to-back in the ruins of Olympus, she may be forced to admit that she’s been wrong about Zeus all these years…and there may be something about their marriage worth saving if they can survive long enough to turn sworn enemies into something more.
Katee Robert breathes new life into Greek mythology’s Hera and Zeus with an irresistible enemies to lovers romance that promises to take readers on a darkly seductive journey.

A Wild Card Kiss - Ballers and Babes 2
In the third book in the Ballers and Babes series, #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely charms with a sexy, flirty sports romcom featuring a pro football single dad who's never forgotten a red-hot kiss from years ago. Now the object of his memories is a jilted bride determined to make a new start.
For Katie Madigan – who catches her groom kissing another woman just minutes before they head to the altar – there’s nothing more apt than ditching the whole event for a drink at the bowling alley bar down the street. She’s just about had enough of men altogether when in walks a deliciously charming local football hero, Harlan Taylor – the perfect distraction for Katie’s heartbreak.
Another drink turns into a one-night stand with hunky Harlan. When he asks in the morning if they could get together again, how could she say no? But then Katie learns his football team just hired her yoga studio to teach the star player, which means Harlan is officially off limits.
Trouble is, the more time Katie spends working with Harlan, the sexy single dad who dotes on his daughter, the more she’s feeling things far too soon. There’s no way this can end well…but tell that to her runaway heart.
A Wild Card Kiss continues Lauren Blakely’s charming, sexy sports romance series in style – with steamy chemistry and unforgettable moments that are an absolute touchdown.
Jsi, tedy jsem
Titul Jsi, tedy jsem. Prolomení ustavičnosti je knihou o lásce, kterou autor zúžil na lásku erotickou, takže větší část knihy tvoří pasáže o sexualitě. Autor v knize rozvíjí své pojetí lásky, ale zabývá se rovněž jinými autory, kteří se tímto tématem zabývají – od Platóna přes Eugena Finka až po Evu Illouzovou,. Autor chápe lásku jako výsostný projev tělesnosti. Karteziánsky znějící název prozrazuje hned na začátku, že láska je opakem nezpochybnitelné jistoty, neboť láskou vstupujeme do krajně nejisté, ale nejdůležitější oblasti. Více mohou prozradit názvy jednotlivých kapitol: Palčivá nejistota lásky; Řehole a krásné pozdviženi; Marnokřídlá láska; V sobě rozpolcená láska; Láska se stravuje plností okamžiku; Podoby proměn; Láska, nenávist, lhostejnost; Láska jako vášeň k lásce; Manželství mezi kooperativním podnikem a vzájemným vykořisťováním; Svoboda a závazek; Amo, quia absurdum; Prolomeni ustavičnosti; Láska svými smysly.
The Graceview Patient
Misery meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers in this genre-bending, claustrophobic hospital gothic from the bestselling author of The Death of Jane Lawrence. Margaret lives with a rare autoimmune condition that has destroyed her life, leaving her isolated. It has no cure, but she?s making do as best she can?until she?s offered a fully paid-for spot in an experimental medical trial at Graceview Memorial. The conditions are simple, if grueling: she will live at the hospital as a full-time patient, subjecting herself to the near-total destruction of her immune system and its subsequent regeneration. The trial will essentially kill most of, but not all of her. But as the treatment progresses and her body begins to fail, she stumbles upon something sinister living and spreading within the hospital. Unsure of what''s real and what is just medication-induced delusion, Margaret struggles to find a way out as her body and mind succumb further to the darkness lurking throughout Graceview''s halls.
Atlas of Unknowable Things
High in the Rocky Mountains on a secluded campus, sits Hildegard College, a celebrated institution known for its scientific innovation and its sprawling, botanical gardens. Historian Robin Quain has been awarded a residency to examine Hildegard’s impressive collection of ancient manuscripts, but she has a secret. She’s actually on the hunt for an artifact - one she must find before her former best friend turned professional rival gets his hands on it first. But Hildegard has secrets of its own. Strange sounds echo across the alpine lake, lights flicker through the pines, and the faculty seem more like Jazz-age glitterati than academics. And then there’s the professor who holds the key to Robin’s research. She vanished suddenly last spring. What exactly did she do at the college, and why does no one want to talk about he? s Robin searches for answers, an unknown source sends her a series of cryptic messages that makes her question whether she’s the one doing the hunting, or whether someone is hunting her. Drawing on historical, botanical, and occult research, and steeped in the gothic tradition, Atlas of Unknowable Things considers what it means to search for meaning in the scientific, only to come face to face with the sublime.

The High Heaven
In 1967, on the night of the first Apollo mission, a child named Izzy is orphaned when the doomsday cult she was born into clashes with the sheriff in the high desert of New Mexico. She’s taken in by a struggling rancher who is trying to keep his mind from falling apart as NASA rocket tests encroach on his outer range. Inspired by the true story of a UFO cult in a village near White Sands, this novel traces Izzy Gently’s whole life: from tragedy on the ranch, through addiction and a rich cast of eccentrics in Texas, to New Orleans, where Izzy is haunted by her past even as she uses lessons from childhood to counsel people who have lost the ability to see the moon. In The High Heaven, Joshua Wheeler explores American piety as it mutates over the course of the Space Age, as technology changes notions of both humanity and the heavens. Shot through with the speculative while paying homage to three iconic genres - neo-Western, picaresque, and Southern gothic - Izzy’s life story becomes a mirror for the warping of manifest destiny and, ultimately, a testament to the human will to seek meaning from the universe. Suffused with the absurdist history of American space travel and the wide-open landscapes of the Southwest, The High Heaven chronicles a larger-than-life adventure of one extraordinary woman who, despite tragedy, never loses sight of redemption.
Never Over
Twenty-five-year-old Paige Lancaster is one contract away from earning a living doing her favourite thing in the world: writing songs. But when a music industry professional suggests she might be holding back with her lyrics to lessen the heartbreak of an old flame, Paige doubts if her music is ready to be heard. In a rare, impulsive move, Paige reaches out to Liam Bishop after four years of no-contact to ask him for a small favour: date her, and then re-break her heart, all so she can remember what those big, songworthy emotions felt like. And since Liam is the one who first set Paige on this career path, he hesitantly agrees. Across two months of Liam’s summer work travel, the exes are forced to share hotel beds, rehash the past, and date in the present, all while navigating the building attraction between them they both swore was the one line of their agreement they wouldn’t cross. But when it becomes near impossible not to act on their rippling chemistry, and as ever intensifying feelings blur reality with what’s driven by the music, Paige and Liam will both have to decide which is more important: art for the sake of it, or love over everything.
The More the Terrier
When the dog showed up on the doorstep a few days ago, the sitter knew Andy would know what to do. Indeed, Andy recognises Murphy, who the Carpenters fostered before the dog went home with BJ Bremer and his mother. BJ wanted to learn all he could about caring for Murphy, which made Andy like him immediately. When Andy goes to take Murphy back to the Bremers, though, instead of the happy reunion he expects, he finds BJ's mother in tears. It turns out Murphy ran off…after BJ was arrested for murder. Andy had hoped for a quiet Christmas vacation, but he likes Murphy’s family and his golden retriever, Tara, likes Murphy, so he can't resist getting involved. The case isn’t as simple as Andy thought it would be, though, with BJ suspected of murdering one of his professors. With nothing to go on but Andy's own conviction in BJ's dog-loving character, proving his innocence would be a Christmas miracle. With equal doses of doggy humour and courtroom drama, as well as Andy Carpenter's traditional humbug Christmas spirit, David Rosenfelt delivers another winner.
