Král lenosti - Králové hříchu 4


Xavier Castillo má peníze, šarm i slavné jméno. Jen jedna věc mu chybí – ambice. O rodinné impérium nejeví zájem a raději si užívá. Až do chvíle, kdy ho osud připoutá k ženě, která je vůči jeho kouzlu zdánlivě imunní. Sloane Kensingtonová je cílevědomá profesionálka. Jenže dělat tiskovou mluvčí bohorovnému Xavierovi je největší výzvou jejího života. Je zvyklý mít všechno, ona se mu však odmítá podvolit. Jenže mezi nenávistí a pokušením je tenká hranice… a žádný z nich netuší, kdo ji překročí první.

Don't Let the Forest In - Ne engedd be az erdőt!


Thomasnak fogalma sem volt arról, hogy Andrew bármit megtenne érte. Megvédené. Hazudna érte. Gyilkolna érte. A végzős gimnazista Andrew Perrault egyetlen menedékét horrorisztikus meséi jelentik, amiket Thomasnak ír, annak, aki egyedüliként tud segíteni neki, hogy megbirkózzon a valósággal. Andrew, akinek lány ikertestvére, Dove a tanév elején megmagyarázhatatlanul távolságtartóvá válik, egyre inkább barátjára támaszkodik. Valami furcsa dolog történik azonban Thomasszal. Bántalmazó szülei rejtélyesen eltűnnek, ő pedig véres ruhában érkezik meg az évnyitóra. Thomas semmit nem árul el, Andrew kérdéseit pedig rendre hárítja. Sőt, Thomast kísérteni kezdi valami, és már az alkotásban sem leli örömét, holott imádta megrajzolni az Andrew történeteiben felbukkanó hátborzongató szörnyeket. Andrew elszántan igyekszik kideríteni, mi történhetett a barátjával, ezért egy éjszaka követni kezdi Thomast. Amint a fiú kimerészkedik a bentlakásos iskola határain túli tiltott erdőbe, ahol hirtelen egy rémálomszerű szörnnyel kerül szembe, Thomas rajzai életre kelnek, és mindenkit megölnek, aki közel áll hozzá. Hogy senki más ne halhasson meg, a két fiú éjszakáról éjszakára ádáz harcot vív a szörnyekkel. Ahogy azonban egyre jobban megszállottjai lesznek egymásnak, úgy a szörnyekkel is ugyanez történik, Andrew pedig attól tart, hogy a lények elpusztításának egyetlen módja az, ha a teremtőjüket is elpusztítja...

Tüskék és rózsák udvara 5: A Court of Silver Flames – Ezüst lángok udvara


Sarah J. Maas lélegzetelállító romantasysorozata, a Tüskék és rózsák udvara szenvedélyes és érzéki folytatása, A BESTSELLERLISTÁK éléről. Nesta Archeron mindig is ingerlékeny és büszke volt, hirtelen gerjed haragra, és lassan bocsát meg. Amióta az Üstbe kényszerítették, és akarata ellenére főtündérré vált, nehezen találja a helyét a különös, veszedelmes világban, ahol él. Úgy tűnik, képtelen túllépni a Hybern elleni háború rémségein és mindazon, amit ott elveszített. És van valaki, aki mindenki másnál könnyebben feldühíti: Cassian, a sok csatát megjárt harcos, aki a Rhysand és Feyre uralta Éjszaka udvarában betöltött pozíciója miatt folyamatosan Nesta útjába keveredik. De Cassian nem csak a haragját szítja fel. Le sem tagadhatnák a kettejük közötti szikrákat – és a szenvedélyük fellángol, amikor kénytelenek egy fedél alá költözni. Mindeközben az áruló emberkirálynők, akik az előző háború során visszatértek a kontinensre, veszélyes új szövetséget kötnek, és a vidék törékeny békéjét fenyegetik. A megállításuk kulcsa pedig azon múlik, képes-e Cassian és Nesta szembenézni az őket kísértő múlttal. Ők ketten belső és külső rémekkel küzdenek a bizonytalansággal teli világban, miközben elfogadást – és gyógyulást – keresnek egymás karjában. Add át magad a sodrásának!

Dr. Végzet - Csábító doktorok 4.


Szerelmi bánat esetén találj magadnak egy kamuvőlegényt! Éppen a Big Ben mellett sétálok el és próbálom feldolgozni magamban a világ legrémesebb szakítását, amikor belerohanok egy jóképű idegenbe. És „sikeresen” leöntöm a tűzforró kávémmal. Legnagyobb meglepetésemre az áldozatom nem csupán megbocsájtja nekem, hogy tönkretettem az ingét, de abba is szempillantás alatt beleegyezik, hogy eljátssza a kedvemért életem szerelmét. Merthogy el kell terelnem a sajtó figyelmét legutóbbi szívfájdalmamról. Egy dologban egyetértünk: semmi sem valós az egészből. Csakhogy minél tovább színleljük a szerelmet, annál nehezebb tartanom magam a megállapodásunkhoz. És a perzselő pillantásaiból ítélve ő is hasonló problémával küzd. Végül azonban egy este átlépjük a határt… És kezdem úgy érezni, hogy az álvőlegényem tényleg férjnek való. Louise Bay USA Today bestsellerszerző romantikus regényében egy jóképű angol orvos és egy híres amerikai popsztár szerelmének lehetünk szemtanúi, az esős, de mindig vibráló Londonban.

Show Dont Tell


Razor-sharp, glittering tales exploring marriage, fame and female friendship, from the Sunday Times bestselling author. In this compulsive collection of twelve witty stories, Sittenfeld shows why she’s as beloved for her short fiction as she is for her novels, as she conjures up characters so real that they seem like old friends. In ‘The Patron Saints of Middle Age,’ a woman visits two friends she hasn’t seen since her divorce. In ‘A for Alone,’ a married artist embarks on a project intended to disprove the so-called Mike Pence Rule, which suggests that women and men can’t spend time alone together without lusting after each other. And in ‘Lost but Not Forgotten,’ Sittenfeld gives readers of her novel Prep a new window into the world of her beloved character Lee Fiora, decades later, when Lee attends an awkward school reunion. Witty, confronting and full of tenderness, Sittenfeld peels back layer after layer of our inner lives, keeping us riveted to the page with her utterly distinctive voice.

Speaking in Pictures


Pictures are a fundamental aspect of how we express ourselves, and cave paintings are among our oldest records of intelligence. Yet, despite their importance, why don’t most people feel they can draw, and why are pictures often considered less important than language?For over 20 years, Neil Cohn has pioneered research around these questions within the fields of linguistics and cognitive neuroscience, and this book is the result, heralding a new paradigm of language, drawing, and communication, all accessibly presented as a non-fiction graphic novel. This work challenges the conventional understandings of how pictures communicate, how people learn to draw, and the nature of language itself. With humor and a clear, friendly, and accessible tone, Speaking in Pictures introduces ground-breaking research by doing what it discusses: intertwining pictures and words into a single message as a non-fiction graphic novel, taking the reader on an inspiring journey through the study of communication and the mind.
