Burnout Summer
Camille Luna’s life is not going according to plan. Her corporate job drains her soul, her student loans won’t quit, and her ex is now the wedge between her once-close college friendship group.
When a bad night ends in a holding cell and one phone call, it’s Danny - the charming slacker of their group turned unexpected success story - who answers.
Now running a seaside restaurant in Elswick, Rhode Island, Danny offers her the perfect escape: a summer of waitressing shifts, beach walks and late-night swims. With no five year plan in insight, Cam finds herself reigniting old dreams, and catching serious feelings for Danny…
But summer isn’t forever. With September looming, Cam must choose: return to the safe, burned-out version of herself, or take a risk on the life - and the love - she never saw coming.
Objects of Desire
Hugo Hunter was the most celebrated gay novelist of the 20th century. He published two masterpieces, securing his place alongside the dazzling literary greats of the 1950s, 60s and 70s, and rubbing shoulders with everyone from Truman Capote to James Baldwin, Gore Vidal and George Orwell.
But after decades of fame and excess, just as New York City enters the 1980s and awakes to the coming horror of AIDS, Hugo finds himself running out of money. Out of nowhere, he receives an extraordinary lifeline: an offer from his longtime publisher. Two million dollars, for a memoir and a new novel.
The money will solve all his problems - except for one thing. Hugo Hunter is an imposter. He stole both of his novels. Now, how far will he go to produce a third?
At once dark, moving and deliciously vicious, OBJECTS OF DESIRE traverses the 20th century, featuring an astonishing cast of characters. It is both a colourful glimpse into the lives of the cultural elite, and a tense, gripping story of betrayal, deceit, and literary fraud.
The Issa Valley
'An idyll of immense charm ... a masterpiece' John Bayley, The New York Review of Books

So a boy's life begins in a winding river valley on the Polish-Russian border where time is measured by seasonal rhythms and ancient songs.

But when he is shown a map, he discovers a kingdom all his own and starts to dream of leaving the valley behind.

Siobhan, the rebel leader, has emerged from hiding to tell Nox that Bastian’s involvement in the rebellion has been discovered, and he’s been taken to stand trial in the capital as a traitor.

Saving Bastian is only the start of their trials, as the trio is tracked by ferocious pirates across Threshold.

Student Union
CLOVER ROWAN WALSH knows The Plan™.
1. Get a full ride to her dream school, Wexley University.
2. Conquer the school of business.
3. Say goodbye to the paycheck-to-paycheck life she and her mom have known for years.
There's just one hiccup. With the first semester rapidly approaching, Clover learns her housing grant has fallen through. But a loophole presents itself: Married couples can live in the dorms for the price of one student. Clover is willing to sacrifice the sanctity of marriage . . . even if it means proposing to the one person she swore she'd never speak to again.
Bennett Andrew Graves is the only heir to the Graves Coffee empire. After spending his first year at Wexley, squeaking by in classes and becoming personally acquainted with the female student body, he is looking forward to living off campus. Until the girl he grew up with (and whom he completely devastated years ago) walks back into his life with the most absurd question: Will you marry me?
Bennett can't refuse Clover. He owes her this, but that doesn't change the fact that these two can barely carry on a conversation without getting at each other's throats. Forget about sharing a dorm-much less one bed.
But as Clover and Bennett hide the true nature of their marriage, they find that playing house isn't all that bad-especially with certain marital benefits in the mix. In fact, Clover and Bennett are soon forgetting the most important part of their fake marriage of convenience . . . that it's supposed to be fake.

As she encounters Keith, the band s slightly depressed, fifty-something lead singer not just a celebrity but someone clearly in need of a friend she feels like anything is possible.
But is the connection between Annie and Keith just a fantasy? Or is this the beginning of a new chapter for them both?
Full of laugh-out-loud reflections on fame, nostalgia, marriage and growing up, American Fantasy celebrates the magic of revisiting our youth, and the even greater magic of starting anew.

Z různých perspektiv a prostřednictvím proměnlivých vypravěčských forem skládá autorka citlivý obraz rodiny – nenápadný, a přitom silný.
