Not That Kind of Proposal
Gracie Holland can plan the perfect Happily Ever After-unless it's her own. After a soul-flattening breakup, she has rebuilt her life planning weddings at Larkwood-an ivy-covered estate where she also lives. But when her beloved boss passes away, Gracie suddenly finds herself pitted against a love-allergic divorce lawyer who is determined to sell both her place of work, and her home.
Jude Larkwood cleans up romantic disasters for a living, so he has no intention of keeping Larkwood as a wedding venue, but there's just one problem: his Nana may have left Jude the estate, but she's left the guest cottage to the maddeningly romantic wedding planner, who has somehow turned his mind into her permanent residence.
So, when Gracie proposes that he help her plan her ex's shotgun wedding to prove Larkwood is worth saving, he agrees, but if she fails to convince him by the big day, she'll sell him her cottage. As bickering and cake tastings turn into late-night confessions, Gracie and Jude find themselves breaking every vow not to fall for each other...

Fedőneve Hélene
Ariel Lawhon lenyűgöző, igaz történeten alapuló történelmi regénye a társasági hölgyből kémmé avanzsált Nancy Wake életéről.
Nancy Wake 1936-ban Párizsban él, és a Hearst konglomerátum újságírójaként dolgozik. Itt ismeri meg a dúsgazdag francia iparmágnást, Henri Fioccát, akinek hamar elcsavarja a fejét, és ráveszi, hogy vegye őt feleségül. Nem sokkal később a németek megszállják Franciaországot, és az újdonsült Mrs. Fiocca kénytelen máris egy újabb nevet felvenni: egy háborús fedőnevet.
A Fedőneve Hélene Nancy Wake második világháborús krónikája, akinek a nevét a világon mindenkinek ismerni kellene. Megtudjuk, hogyan csempészett iratokat a Vichy szabad zónában, hogy az üldözöttek Spanyolországon át menekülhessenek a nácik elől. Végigkövethetjük a saját menekülését a Pireneusokon át, miután a Gestapo ötmillió frankos vérdíjat tűzött ki a fejére. Megismerhetjük az angol SOE (Különleges Hadműveletek Végrehajtó Egysége) soraiba való csatlakozásának körülményeit, és hogy hogyan lett ezután a francia ellenállás egyik legbefolyásosabb vezére.
A Fedőneve Hélene fordulatokban gazdag, izgalmas kémregény a második világháború idejéről. Ariel Lawhon a történelmi hűséget betartva, de az ismeretlen részekben a képzeletére hagyatkozva mutatja be Nancy Wake lebilincselő és mozgalmas történetét szerelemről, önfeláldozásról és megingathatatlan eltökéltségről.
The Shipikisha Club
A woman on trial. A marriage built on silence. A culture that demands endurance. Sali, a working mother of three, is on trial for the murder of her husband, Kasunga. Accused of shooting him after a fight in their bedroom, she pleads not guilty and must rely on an overworked legal aid lawyer as a courtroom hungry for judgement looks on. Fourteen years earlier, Sali's life was shaped by a different kind of violence. The pressure to conform, to endure, to shipikisha. When an affair with a wealthy, married man ends in sudden death, she enters a loveless marriage to escape the shame of unwed motherhood. What follows is a life marked by infidelity, financial strain, postnatal depression and quiet suffering, until endurance finally gives way. Told through a braided narrative moving between past and present, The Shipikisha Club is a powerful literary novel about marriage, motherhood and the devastating cost of silence in contemporary Zambia.
Last Kind Words Saloon
This is Larry McMurtry''s ballad in prose: his heartfelt tribute to a bygone era of the American West. In his final novel, he returns to the vivid and unsparing portrait of the nineteenth-century and cowboy lifestyle made so memorable in his classic Lonesome Dove.Long Grass, Texas. Once hailed as heroes for their days of subduing drunks in Abilene and Dodge – more often with a mean look than a pistol – the taciturn Wyatt Earp now idles away his time between bottles, while the dentist-turned-gunslinger Doc Holliday is more adept at poker than extracting teeth. With the buffalo herds gone, the Comanche defeated, and vast swaths of the Great Plains enclosed by cattle ranches, Wyatt and Doc live on, even as the storied West that forged their myths disappears.McMurtry traces their rich and varied friendship from Buffalo Bill''s Wild West Show in Denver to Tombstone, Arizona to the famed gunfight at the O.K. Corral, rendered here in his stark and peerless prose. As harsh and beautiful, and as brutal and captivating as the open range it depicts, The Last Kind Words Saloon celebrates the genius of one of the most original American writers.Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.
